Re: [hobbit] Monitoring linux quotas

["Josh Luthman" <josh (at) imaginenetworksllc.com>]

I am using "linux quotas" on Centos 5.1 (a RHEL derivative).

I've never heard of NetApp.  The command I'm using to check the quotas are
edquota and repquota.  I had to stick in the quota options in /etc/fstab
too.  Does this help confirm I'm using the right quotas?

Here is what the RPM says:

Name   : quota
Arch   : i386
Epoch  : 1
Version: 3.13
Release: 1.2.3.2.el5
Size   : 783 k
Repo   : installed
Summary: System administration tools for monitoring users' disk usage.

Description:
The quota package contains system administration tools for monitoring
and limiting user and or group disk usage per filesystem.
