65.Sh DESCRIPTION
66The
67.Nm
68utility
69announces to the system that disk quotas should be enabled on one or more
70filesystems.
71The
72.Nm quotaoff
73utility announces to the system that the specified
74filesystems should have any disk quotas turned off.
75The filesystems specified must have entries in
76.Pa /etc/fstab
77and be mounted.
78The
79.Nm
80utility expects each filesystem to have quota files named
81.Pa quota.user
82and
83.Pa quota.group
84which are located at the root of the associated filesystem.
85These defaults may be overridden in
86.Pa /etc/fstab .
87By default both user and group quotas are enabled.
88.Pp
89Available options:
90.Bl -tag -width indent
91.It Fl a
92If supplied in place of any filesystem names,
93.Nm Ns / Ns Nm quotaoff
94will enable/disable all the filesystems indicated in
95.Pa /etc/fstab
96to be read-write with disk quotas.
97By default only the types of quotas listed in
98.Pa /etc/fstab
99are enabled.
100.It Fl g
101Only group quotas listed in
102.Pa /etc/fstab
103should be enabled/disabled.
