How much quota am I using in my Athena home directory?
To check the quota on your home directory, you can simply type "quota -v":
joeuser@athena:~$ quota -v -f $USER
Disk quotas for joeuser (uid 17261): Filesystem usage quota limit files quota limit /mit/joeuser 42072 1500000 1500000
Here is what some of the columns mean:
- usage: how much space you are using in Kilobytes (Kb)
- quota/limit: the maximum amount of space alloted
The 3 rightmost columns are obsolete and can be ignored.
(Note: In NFS, quota and limit were used to indicate "soft limit" and "hard limit", respectively. However, there are no soft limits in AFS, and both entries report the same information.)
