vquotacheck(8)
NAME
  vquotacheck - Checks fileset quota consistency

SYNOPSIS
  /usr/sbin/vquotacheck [-guv] fileset ...

  /usr/sbin/vquotacheck -a [-guv] [-lnumber]

FLAGS
  -a	    Checks all filesets identified in /etc/fstab as read/write with
	    disk quotas.

  -g	    Checks group quotas only.

  -lnumber  Specifies the number of times to perform disk quota checking.

  -u	    Checks user quotas only.

  -v	    Reports discrepancies between the calculated and recorded disk
	    quotas.

PARAMETER
  fileset   Specifies an AdvFS fileset.	 You can specify a fileset by
	    entering either the fileset name that is associated with a mount
	    point in the /etc/fstab file or by entering the name of the file
	    domain, a pound sign character (#), and the name of the fileset.
	    For example, root_domain#root.

DESCRIPTION
  Operations supported by the vquotacheck command are also supported by the
  quotacheck command.  See quotacheck(8).  The vquotacheck command is
  supported only for backward compatibility with operating system versions
  earlier than DIGITAL UNIX Version 4.0 and will be retired in a future
  release of the product.

  The vquotacheck command examines each specified fileset, builds a table of
  current disk usage, and compares this table against that stored in the disk
  quota file for the fileset.  If any inconsistencies are detected, both the
  quota file and the current system copy of the incorrect quotas are updated.
  Each fileset must be mounted with quotas enabled.

  The vquotacheck command runs parallel passes on filesets using the number
  specified in the fsck field of the /etc/fstab file. The vquotacheck command
  only checks filesets with pass number 2 in the /etc/fstab file. A fileset
  with no pass number or a number less than 2 will not be checked.

  The vquotacheck command checks only filesets that have the advfs
  rq,userquota, or groupquota option specified in the /etc/fstab file.

  By default both user and group quotas listed in the /etc/fstab file are
  checked.  Use the -g flag to specify that only group quotas be checked; use
  the -u flag to specify that only user quotas be checked.


  The vquotacheck command does not display activity information while
  checking filesets. Use the -v flag to report inconsistencies found or
  procedures performed by the vquotacheck command.

  The filesets checked should be quiescent while the vquotacheck command is
  running.

RESTRICTION
  You must be the root user to use the vquotacheck command.
