Activate quota
After doing the right configuration, simply run the following command to enable quota for all configured users on /home file system:
# quotaon /home
Note: we can use quotaoff command to deactivate quota.
Assigning Group quota:
We can assign quota on group basis. For example, to set quota for group hardware, we will be using following command:
# edquota -g hardware
This command will display existing quota for group hardware, in text editor, as follows:
            Disk quotas for group hardware (gid 504):
                 Filesystem                          blocks      soft        hard      inodes       soft        hard
                 /dev/vol_gr0/log_vol1         220200       0           0        18709           0           0
We can modify the limits as per requirements, save the file and thereafter configure the quota. To verify that group quota has been set, run the following command:
# quota -g hardware
Note: The remaining procedure is same as we used for user quota.
