Manage disk quotas:
Quotas allow you to control disk usage by user or by group. Quotas prevent individual users and groups from using a larger portion of a filesystem than they are permitted, or from filling it up altogether. XFS filesystems also support project quotas, which limit the amount of space used by a project, regardless of which users create files in the project's directory tree.
Quotas must be enabled and managed by the root user or by a user with root authority. They are often used on multiuser systems, but less often on single-user workstations.
There are three different types of quota support:
Quotas require kernel support that was introduced in later 2.4 kernels. 2.6 kernels have the support you need

There are three different types of quota support:
- vfsold, or version 1 quota
- vfsv0, or version 2 quota
- xfs, the quota on XFS filesystems
