The file systems specified must have entries in /etc/fstab and be mounted at the time. The file system quota files must be present in the root directory of the specified file system and be named _q_u_o_t_a_s. The optional argument --vv causes _q_u_o_t_a_o_n to print a message for each file system where quotas are turned on. If, instead of a list of file systems, a --aa argument is give to _q_u_o_t_a_o_n, all file systems in /etc/fstab marked read-write with quotas will have their quotas turned on. This is nor- mally used at boot time to enable quotas. _Q_u_o_t_a_o_f_f announces to the system that file systems specified should have any disc quotas turned off. As above, the --vv forces a verbose message for each file system affected; and the --aa option forces all file systems in /etc/fstab to have their quotas disabled. These commands update the status field of devices located in /_e_t_c/_m_t_a_b to indicate when quotas are on or off for each file system.
