19.9.7 Maintaining the Accuracy of Disk Quota Reporting

Uncontrolled system shutdowns can lead to inaccuracies in disk quota reports.

To rebuild the quota database for a file system:

  1. Disable disk quotas for the file system: 

    # quotaoff -guv filesystem

  2. Unmount the file system: 

    # umount filesystem

  3. Enter the following command to rebuild the quota databases: 

    # quotacheck -guv filesystem

  4. Mount the file system: 

    # mount filesystem

  5. Enable disk quotas for the file system: 

    # quotaoff -guv filesystem

For more information, see the quotacheck(8) manual page.
