.Dt QUOTA.USER 5

|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm quota.user , quota.group
|
|
.Nd per file system quota database
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
Each file system with active quotas should contain a
|
|
.Pa quota.user
|
|
and
|
|
.Pa quota.group
|
|
file in the file system root.
|
|
These files are created by
|
|
.Xr quotacheck 8 ,
|
|
and should be edited with
|
|
.Xr edquota 8 .
|
|
It is possible to specify a different location and file name with the
|
|
.Dq Li userquota
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq Li groupquota
|
|
options in the
|
|
.Xr fstab 5
|
|
file.
|
|
.Pp
|
|

|
|
The data files contain the following information:
|
|

|
|
.Bl -bullet -indent offset -compact
|
|

|

.Pp
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr edquota 8
|
|
for an explanation on the various limits and grace periods.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
During normal quota operations the
|
|
.Xr quotactl 2
|
|
interface is used to query or set quota information and the kernel
|
|
will maintain the data files as needed.
|
|
If quotas are disabled on
|
|
a file system, but marked as having quotas enabled in
|
|
.Xr fstab 5 ,
|
|
then the quota data files will be used directly.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The data files are stored as an array of
|
|
.Dq Li struct dqblk
|
|
structures, as defined in
|
|
.In ufs/ufs/quota.h ,
|
|
and indexed by UID or GID.
|
|
The data files will be written as a sparse file if possible.
|
|
Data is only maintained for ids that have either non-zero usage or
|
|
non-zero quota limits.
|
|
If an attempt is made to access data for an id that would exist past the
|
|
end of the current data file, a quota structure with all values set
|
|
to zero will be created, and the data file extended as needed.
|
|
The
|
|
.Xr quotacheck 8
|
|
utility will truncate the data files to the minimum size needed
|
|
to store the highest id with either non-zero file usage or
|
|
non-zero quota limits.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The data record for id 0 has special meaning. If the
|
|
.Dq Dv dqb_btime
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq Dv dbq_itime
|
|
fields are non-zero, they are used to indicate the grace period on
|
|
that file system for users who have exceeded their soft limit.
|
|
These times can be set by
|
|
.Xr edquota 8
|
|
with the
|
|
.Fl t
|
|
flag.
|
|
If no explicit grace period has been set with
|
|
.Xr edquota 8 ,
|
|
then the default value of 7 days will be used.
|
|
The default values are defined by
|
|
.Dv MAX_DQ_TIME
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv MAX_IQ_TIME
|
|
in
|
|
.In ufs/ufs/quota.h .
