Manually Configuring Quotas
Manual configuration of quotas involves changing entries in your system's file system table, /etc/fstab
, to add the usrquota
mount option to the desired portion of your file system. As an example in a simple file system, quota management can be enabled like this:
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 1
Group-level quotas can also be enabled by using the grpquota
option. As the root opera tor, you must then create a file (using the example of creating user quotas) named aquota.user
in the designated portion of the file system, like so:
# touch /quota.user
You should then turn on the use of quotas by using the quotaon
command:
# quotaon -av
You can then edit user quotas with the edquota
command to set hard and soft limits on file system use. The default system editor (vi
unless you change your EDITOR
environment variable) is launched when a user's quota is edited.
Any user can find out what her quotas are with the following:
$ quota -v
NOTE
No graphical tools supported by Fedora can be used to configure disk quotas. A Quota mini-HOWTO is maintained at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Quota.html.
