.Nm quota
.Nd display disk usage and limits
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm
.Op Fl ghu
.Op Fl v | Fl q
.Nm
.Op Fl hu
.Op Fl v | Fl q
.Ar user
.Nm
.Op Fl gh
.Op Fl v | Fl q
.Ar group
.Nm
.Fl d
.Op Fl gh
.Op Fl v | Fl q
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
displays users' disk usage and limits.
By default only the user quotas are printed.
.Pp
Options:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl d
Query the kernel for default user or group quota instead of a specific
user or group.
.It Fl g
Print group quotas.
By default, print group quotas for all groups the user belongs to.
.It Fl h
Numbers are displayed in a human readable format.
.It Fl q
Print a more terse message, containing only information
on file systems where usage is over quota.
.It Fl u
Print user quotas.
This is the default.
.It Fl v
.Nm
will display quotas on file systems where no storage is allocated.
.El
.Pp
Specifying both
.Fl g
and
.Fl u
displays both the user quotas and the group quotas (for
the user).
.Pp
Only the super-user may use the optional
.Ar user
argument with the
.Fl u
flag to view quotas for other users.
Non-super-users can use the optional
.Ar group
argument with the
.Fl g
flag to view only the limits of groups they belong to.
.Pp
The
.Fl q
flag takes precedence over the
.Fl v
flag.
.Pp
.Nm
tries to report the quotas of all mounted file systems.
If the file system is mounted via
.Em NFS
it will attempt to contact the
.Xr rpc.rquotad 8
daemon on the
.Em NFS
server.
If
.Nm
exits with a non-zero status, one or more file systems
are over quota.
