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. SEE ALSO 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)
