xfs_quota is a utility for reporting and editing various aspects
of filesystem quota.
The options to xfs_quota are:
-c cmd xfs_quota commands may be run interactively (the default)
or as arguments on the command line. Multiple -c arguments
may be given. The commands are run in the sequence given,
then the program exits.
-p prog
Set the program name for prompts and some error messages,
the default value is xfs_quota.
-x Enable expert mode. All of the administrative commands
(see the ADMINISTRATOR COMMANDS section below) which allow
modifications to the quota system are available only in
expert mode.
-f Enable foreign filesystem mode. A limited number of user
and administrative commands are available for use on some
foreign (non-XFS) filesystems.
-d project
Project names or numeric identifiers may be specified with
this option, which restricts the output of the individual
xfs_quota commands to the set of projects specified.
Multiple -d arguments may be given.
-D projects_file
Specify a file containing the mapping of numeric project
identifiers to directory trees. /etc/projects as default,
if this option is none.
-P projid_file
Specify a file containing the mapping of numeric project
identifiers to project names. /etc/projid as default, if
this option is none.
-V Prints the version number and exits.
The optional path argument(s) can be used to specify mount points
or device files which identify XFS filesystems. The output of the
individual xfs_quota commands will then be restricted to the set
of filesystems specified.
This manual page is divided into two sections - firstly,
information for users of filesystems with quota enabled, and the
xfs_quota commands of interest to such users; and then
information which is useful only to administrators of XFS
filesystems using quota and the quota commands which allow
modifications to the quota system.
Note that common to almost all of the individual commands
described below are the options for specifying which quota types
are of interest - user quota (-u), group quota (-g), and/or
project quota (-p). Also, several commands provide options to
operate on "blocks used" (-b), "inodes used" (-i), and/or
"realtime blocks used" (-r).
Many commands also have extensive online help. Use the help
command for more details on any command.
