NAME
     quota - display disk usage and limits

SYNOPSIS
     quota [ -nv ] [ -j|-g ] [ idname ...  ]

DESCRIPTION
     quota displays users', groups' or projects' disk usage (in kilobytes) and
     limits. Only the super-user may use the optional idname argument to view
     the limits of another user.  Only members of a group may view the limits
     of that group, and there are no restrictions on viewing project quota.

     If a -n flag is supplied, quota will only display quotas for local file
     systems.  Remotely mounted file systems are ignored.

     If a -j flag is supplied, quota will report project quotas. If a -g flag
     is supplied, quota will report group quotas.  If neither the -j or the -g
     flag is supplied, quota will report user quotas.

     Normally, output pertaining to only those filesystems where the user,
     group or project has exceeded its quota is displayed.  The -v flag causes
     quota to report the user's, group's  or project's quotas even if they
     have not been exceeded.

     quota reports only on file systems which have disk quotas. Remotely
     mounted file systems which are mounted with the noquota option or without
     the quota option (see fstab(4)) are ignored.

BUGS
     EFS does not keep quota accounting for users who do not have quota
     limits.

     EFS filesystems do not keep accurate quota accounting when quota limits
     are added or removed; quotacheck(1M) must be run to rectify its records.

CAVEATS
     Setting and reporting project quotas is not supported for NFS mounted
     filesystems due to the limitation of rquotad(1M).

FILES
     /etc/mtab		 mounted file systems
