How to install Quota Tools on Ubuntu ?

To set and check quotas, we first need to install the quota command line tools using apt. Let’s update our package list, then install the package:

$ sudo apt install quota

 You can verify that the tools are installed by running the quota command and asking for its version information:

$ quota --version


How to enable Quotas on Ubuntu ?

Before finally turning on the quota system, we need to manually run the quotacheck command once:

$ sudo quotacheck -ugm /

This command creates the files /aquota.user and /aquota.group.

  • g: indicates that a group-based quota file should be created.
  • m: disables remounting the filesystem as read-only while performing the initial tallying of quotas. Remounting the filesystem as read-only will give more accurate results in case a user is actively saving files during the process, but is not necessary during this initial setup.
