QUOTAON                             Aegis                              QUOTAON



NAME
     quotaon, quotaoff - enable/disable disk quota checking

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/quotaon [-v] [-a]
     /etc/quotaoff [-v] [-a]
     /etc/quotaon [-v] [device...]
     /etc/quotaoff [-v] [device...]

DESCRIPTION
     quotaon enables disk quota checking on the specified disk volumes and/or
     devices.  quotaoff disables disk quota checking.

     If disk quota checking is enabled, the mount options field in /etc/mtab
     or /etc/mnttab for the specified device is changed to "rq".  If disk
     quota checking is disabled, the field is changed to "rw" or "sw"
     (whichever is appropriate).


OPTIONS
     -v   Print message as each device is processed.

     -a   Enable/disable quota checking on all devices marked "rq" in
          /etc/fstab.

     device ...
          Pathname to one or more block device files for devices to be
          operated on.

WARNINGS
     quotaon and quotaoff can only be executed by a sufficiently privileged
     (ROOT) user.

     The disk volume must be configured (via invol) with a quota table.
     Otherwise, quotaon/quotaoff will fail with a "disk quotas not configured"
     error.

     The specified volume must be mounted.

EXAMPLE
     The following command enables quota checking on logical volumes 2 and 3
     on the disk at controller 0, Unit 0.

          /etc/quotaon /dev/dsk/W0d0s2 /dev/dsk/W0d0s3
