quot(8)  —  Maintenance

NAME

quot − summarizes file system ownership

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/quot [−cfhnv] [file_spec ...]
/usr/sbin/quot [−g] [group]

PARAMETERS

file_specSpecifies one or more file systems.  Specify a file system by entering its name as defined by its file_spec parameter in the /etc/fstab file.  Otherwise, how you specify a file system depends on whether it is UFS or AdvFS and whether it is mounted.

To specify a UFS file system that is mounted, enter the name of its character device special file.  For example: /dev/rrz3c. 

To specify a UFS that is not mounted, enter the name of its block device special file.  For example: /dev/rz3c. 

To specify an AdvFS fileset that is mounted, enter the name of the file domain, a pound-sign(#) character, and the name of the fileset.  For example: root_domain#root. 

You cannot specify an AdvFS fileset that is not mounted. 

groupSpecifies a group name. 

FLAGS

−cDisplays three columns giving file size in blocks, the number of files of that size, and cumulative total of blocks in a file of that size or smaller.  Note that disk quotas are displayed in 1 kilobyte blocks. 

−fDisplays amount of space used and a count of number of files owned by each user. 

−gDisplays group quotas for groups of which you are a member, in addition to your user quotas, when specified without the group parameter.  Displays group quotas for group when you specify group. 

−hFor UFS, this option displays the number of blocks used by each user.  For AdvFS, the option is not implemented. 

−nDisplays a list of all files and their owners by performing the following pipeline:

ncheck filesystem | sort +0n | quot −n filesystem

−vDisplays quota information for all mounted file systems, regardless of whether the user has any files in a given file system or whether quotas are enabled on a file system. 

DESCRIPTION

The quot command displays the number of blocks in the file system that are currently owned by each user.  If you do not specify a file system, the quot command processes all file systems of type ro, rw, or rq that are listed in the /etc/fstab file. 

NOTES

The term file system represents either a UFS file system or an AdvFS fileset. 

RESTRICTION

You must be the root user to use the quot command. 

For UFS file systems, the file_spec parameter must be the name of a device that can be opened for reading. 

EXAMPLES

The following command displays the blocks used and the number of files owned by each user on the mounted file system specified by the /dev/rrz1a character device special file name:

# quot -f /dev/rrz1a
/dev/rrz1a:
42813   760   root
23882   543   bin
    6     2   devbld

The following command displays the number of blocks owned by each user:

# quot staff_domain#usr
staff_domain#usr:
308522  bin
93881   smith
62270   root
 4335   #553
 3615   bold
   24   daemon
   15   steven
   14   jones
   14   walter
    6   adm
    3   north
