rquotad(8)NOTES
quota displays quotas for NFS mounted UFS- or ZFS-based file systems if
the
rquotad daemon is running. See
rquotad(8). In a
zones(7) environment,
quota displays quotas only for the zone in which it is invoked.
quota can display entries for the same file system multiple times for
multiple mount points. For example,
#
quota -v user1 might display identical quota information for
user1 at the mount points
/home/user1,
/home/user2, and
/home/user, if all three mount points are
mounted from the same file system with quotas turned on.
