[help]about HP's 'quota' command[help]

[zhangr_2]

Hi all
I've met a problem with HP's 'quota'
in my environment,all the users' home directory are mounted from a file server.
and at the file server,every one have 2GB quota.
the problem is I can use command :
quota -v username under Solaris.and get result like this:
######################################
bash-2.05# quota -v rzhang
Disk quotas for rzhang (uid 59610):
Filesystem usage quota limit timeleft files quota limit timeleft
/disk1 1914072 26214400 26214400 11497 -1 -1
######################################
but under HP
when I type quota -v rzhang
I can't get the number,like below:

######################################
bash-2.05b$ quota -v
Disk quotas for rzhang (uid 59610):
Filesystem usage quota limit timeleft files quota limit timeleft
######################################
so do you know how to solve this kind of problem? thanks in advance.

man quota has following to offer:

-v : Display the statistics whether they exceed limits or not. Note that no usage statistics exist if no quota is set.

Check:

directory/quotas: Quota statistics static storage for a file system, where directory is the root of the file system as specified to the mount command.

Login as the user and just type "quota" should print the quota for him ...

I am not sure if the following is the correct option but ...

As root

quota -u ##(?) am i correct
