NAME

       quotasync - synchronize in-kernel file system usage and limits to disk format

SYNOPSIS

       quotasync [ -ugP ] mount-point...
       quotasync [ -ugP ] -a
       quotasync -h | -V

DESCRIPTION

       quotasync  flushes  file  system  usage  and  limits from kernel memory to quota files stored in the file
       system. By default only the user quotas are synchronized.

       This tool can be useful if you want to display accurate quotas by tools  that  parse  quota  files,  like
       repquota(8).

OPTIONS

       -u, --user
              Synchronize user usage and limits.

       -g, --group
              Synchronize group usage and limits.

       -P, --project
              Synchronize project usage and limits.

       -a, --all
              Synchronize  usage  and  limits on all file systems. You have to specify this option or to specify
              desired file systems.

       -V, --version
              Show program version information and exit.

       -h, --help
              Show program usage and exit.

DIAGNOSTICS

       If requested synchronization fails, or invalid option is given, quotasync will  terminate  with  non-zero
       exit code. Otherwise it will return zero.

FILES

       aquota.user  or  aquota.group
                       Quota file at the file system root (version 2 quota, non-XFS/GFS2 file systems).
       quota.user  or  quota.group
                       Quota file at the file system root (version 1 quota, non-XFS/GFS2 file systems).
       /etc/mtab       List of mounted file systems maintained by user space.
       /proc/mounts    List of mounted file systems maintained by kernel.
