NAME
     quotaon, quotaoff - turn file system quotas on and off

SYNOPSIS
     quotaon [-v] filesystem ...

     quotaon [-av]

     quotaoff [-v] filesystem ...

     quotaoff [-av]

DESCRIPTION
     quotaon announces to the system that disk quotas should be enabled on
     one or more file systems. The file systems specified must be mounted
     at the time. The file system quota files must be present in the root
     directory of the specified file system and be named quotas.

     quotaoff announces to the system that file systems specified should
     have any disk quotas turned off.

OPTIONS
     -a   All file systems in /etc/mnttab marked read-write with quotas
          will have their quotas turned on. This option is normally used at
          boot time to enable quotas. It applies only to file systems that
          have "rq" in the mntopts field of the /etc/vfstab file.

     -v   Displays a message for each file system where quotas are turned
          on.

     The options for quotaoff are:

     -a   Forces all file systems in /etc/mnttab to have their quotas dis-
          abled. This option applies only to file systems that have "rq" in
          the mntopts field of the /etc/vfstab file.

     -v   Displays a message for each file system affected.

     These commands update the status field of devices located in
     /etc/mnttab to indicate when quotas are on or off for each file sys-
     tem.

FILES
     /etc/mnttab
          mounted file systems

     /etc/vfstab
          list of default parameters for each file system
