DESCRIPTION

rquotad is an rpc(5) server which returns quotas for a user of a local
file system which is mounted by a remote machine over the NFS. The
results are used by quota(8) to display user quotas for remote file
systems. The rquotad daemon is normally invoked by inetd(8).

USAGE

See largefile(7) for the description of the behavior of rquotad when
encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte (2^31 bytes).

NOTES

The rquotad service is managed by the service management facility,
smf(7), under the service identifier:

svc:/network/nfs/rquota


Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or
requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(8). Responsibility for
initiating and restarting this service is delegated to inetd(8). Use
inetadm(8) to make configuration changes and to view configuration
information for this service. The service's status can be queried using
the svcs(1) command.


If it is disabled, it will be enabled by mount_nfs(8), share_nfs(8), and
automountd(8) unless its application/auto_enable property is set to
false.
