22 The B<fs setquota> command sets the quota (maximum possible size) of the
23 read/write volume that contains the directory or file named by the
26 To set the quota on multiple volumes at the same time, use the B<fs
29 To display a volume's quota, use the B<fs examine>, B<fs listquota>, or
34 Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes).
40 =item B<-path> <I<dir/file path>>
42 Names the directory or file for which to set the host volume's
43 quota. Partial pathnames are interpreted relative to the current working
44 directory, which is also the default value if this argument is omitted.
46 Specify the read/write path to the file or directory, to avoid the failure
47 that results from attempting to change a read-only volume. By convention,
48 the read/write path is indicated by placing a period before the cell name
49 at the pathname's second level (for example, F</afs/.abc.com>). For
50 further discussion of the concept of read/write and read-only paths
51 through the filespace, see the B<fs mkmount> reference page.
53 =item B<-max> <I<max quota in kbytes>>
55 Sets the maximum amount of file server disk space the volume can
56 occupy. Specify the number of one-kilobyte blocks as a positive integer
57 (C<1024> is one megabyte). A value of C<0> sets an unlimited quota, but
58 the size of the disk partition that houses the volume places an absolute
59 limit on the volume's size.
61 If the B<-path> argument is omitted (to set the quota of the volume
62 housing the current working directory), the B<-max> switch must be
63 included with this argument.

74 The following command imposes a maximum quota of 3000 kilobytes on the
75 volume that houses the F</afs/abc.com/usr/smith> directory:
