Checking Quotas
Home Directory Quota
The $HOME directory on PDSF has a quota of 5GB and 50K inodes. If you are over quota, you will see the following message when you login:
YOU ARE OVER QUOTA, please clean up immediately!
Please remove some files and use the myquota command to make sure you are below quota. The above warning message will go away within 12 hours once you reduced your usage to below quota.
Please Note: Your account might be blocked if you are over quota for more than 24 hours.
myquota
To check your quotas use the myquota command, which by default reports space in GB. To display in MB instead use the -M option:
pdsf4 51% myquota -M
---------- Space (MB) ---------- ------------- Inode ---------------
FileSystem Usage Quota InDoubt Grace Usage Quota InDoubt Grace

Use the -u [username] option to specify a specific user or the -g [groupname] option to specify a specific group. Note that "Usage" plus "InDoubt" is what counts against your quota.
getfsquota
Some file systems use filesets and then you need to use getfsquota and specify both the file system and the fileset:
pdsf4 102% /usr/common/nsg/bin/getfsquota eliza14 pwg
------ Space (GB) ------- ----------- Inode -----------
Fileset Usage Quota InDoubt Usage Quota InDoubt
-------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------
pwg 17155 17212 54 5892213 0 109949
pdsf4 103% /usr/common/nsg/bin/getfsquota eliza14 starprod
------ Space (GB) ------- ----------- Inode -----------
Fileset Usage Quota InDoubt Usage Quota InDoubt
-------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------
starprod 11200 13374 16 329919 0 20983
prjquota
Note that myquota does not show your quota on NGF (/project). To see the quota for a group on NGF use "prjquota [groupname]", e.g.,
pdsf4 65% prjquota alice
------ Space (GB) ------- ----------- Inode -----------
Project Usage Quota InDoubt Usage Quota InDoubt
-------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------
alice 191 1024 0 1579652 2000000 0
