quotaoff(1M)
NAME
quotaon, quotaoff - turn ufs file system quotas on and off
SYNOPSIS
quotaon [-v] filesystem...
quotaon -a [-v]
quotaoff [-v] filesystem...
quotaoff -a [-v]
DESCRIPTION
quotaon turns on disk quotas for one or more ufs file sys-
tems.
Before a file system may have quotas enabled, a file named
quotas, owned by root, must exist in the root directory of
the file system. See edquota(1M) for details on how to
modify the contents of this file.
quotaoff turns off disk quotas for one or more ufs file sys-
tems.
The file systems specified must already be mounted.
These commands update the mntopts field of the appropriate
entries in /etc/mnttab to indicate when quotas are on or off
for each file system. If quotas are on, the string quota
will be added to mntopts; if quotas are off, the quota
string is not present.
filesystem must be either the mount point of a file system,
or the block device on which the file system resides.
OPTIONS

- a This option is normally used at boot time to enable
quotas. It applies only to those file systems in

in the root directory.
-v Display a message for each file system after quotas
are turned on.
quotaoff
- a Force all file systems in /etc/mnttab to have their
quotas disabled.
-v Display a message for each file system affected.
