QUOT(8)			    System Manager's Manual		       QUOT(8)

NAME
       quot -- display disk space occupied by each user

SYNOPSIS
       quot [-cfknv] [-a | filesystem ...]

DESCRIPTION
       The  quot utility is used to gather per-user disk usage statistics from
       ffs(7) file systems.

       The following options are available:

       -a      Include statistics for all mounted file systems.

       -c      Display three columns containing	number	of  blocks  per	 file,
	       number of files in this category, and aggregate total of	blocks
	       in  files with this or lower size.  This	option is mutually ex-
	       clusive with the	-n option.

       -f      For each	user, display count of files and space occupied.  This
	       option has no effect if combined	with the -c or -n options.

       -k      Force the numbers to be reported	in kilobyte  counts.   By  de-
	       fault, all sizes	are reported in	512-byte block counts.

       -n      Given  a	 list of inodes	(plus some optional data on each line)
	       in the standard input, for each file print out the owner	 (plus
	       the remainder of	the input line).  Lines	that do	not begin with
	       a number	are ignored.  This is traditionally used in the	pipe:

		     ls	-i | sed -e 's,^  *,,' | sort -k 1n | quot -n filesystem

	       to  get a report	of files and their owners.  This option	is mu-
	       tually exclusive	with the -c option.

       -v      In addition to the default output, display the number of	 files
	       not accessed within 30, 60 and 90 days.	This option has	no ef-
	       fect if combined	with the -c or -n options.

ENVIRONMENT
       BLOCKSIZE  If the environment variable BLOCKSIZE	is set,	and the	-k op-
		  tion is not specified, the block counts will be displayed in
		  units	of that	size block.

       df(1), quota(1),	getmntinfo(3), fstab(5), ffs(7), mount(8)

HISTORY
       This implementation of quot is by Wolfgang Solfrank / TooLs GmbH.

BUGS
       ncheck  (which  would  be  a  lot more useful than ls -i	in the example
       above) does not exist in	FreeBSD.

FreeBSD	ports 15.1	       November	13, 2025		       QUOT(8)
