NAME
       warnquota - send mail to users over quota

SYNOPSIS
       warnquota [ -ugsid ] [ -F quotaformat ] [ -q quotatab ] [ -c configfile
       ] [ -a adminsfile ]

DESCRIPTION
       warnquota checks the disk quota for each filesystem and mails a warning
       message	to  those users who have reached their softlimit.  It is typi‐
       cally run via cron(8).

       -F quotaformat
	      Perform setting for specified format (ie. don't  perform	format
	      autodetection).	Possible  format  names are: vfsold (version 1
	      quota), vfsv0 (version 2	quota),	 rpc  (quota  over  NFS),  xfs
	      (quota on XFS filesystem)

       -q quotatab
	      Use  quotatab  instead  of  /etc/quotatab	 as  file  with device
	      description strings (see example file for syntax).

       -c configfile
	      Use configfile instead of /etc/warnquota.conf  as	 configuration
	      file (see example file for syntax).

       -a adminsfile
	      Use  adminsfile  instead	of  /etc/quotagrpadmins as a file with
	      administrators of the groups.

       -u     check whether users are not exceeding quotas (default).

       -g     check whether groups are	not  exceeding	quotas.	 If  group  is
	      exceeding	 quota	a  mail	 is  sent  to  the  user  specified in
	      /etc/quotagrpadmins.

       -s     Try to report used space, number of used inodes  and  limits  in
	      more appropriate units than the default ones.

       -i     ignore mountpoints mounted by automounter.

       -d     don't attach quota report in email.

			   non-XFS filesystems)
       quota.user	   quota file at the filesystem root (version 1 quota,
			   non-XFS filesystems)
