convertquota - convert quota from old file format to new
one
SYNOPSIS
convertquota [ -ug ] filesystem
DESCRIPTION
convertquota converts old quota files quota.user and
quota.group to files aquota.user and aquota.group in new
format currently used by 2.4.0-ac? and newer or by Red Hat
Linux 2.4 kernels on filesystem.
New file format allows using quotas for 32-bit uids /
gids, setting quotas for root, accounting used space in
bytes (and so allowing use of quotas in ReiserFS) and it
is also architecture independent. This format introduces
Radix Tree (a simple form of tree structure) to quota
file.
OPTIONS
-u convert user quota file. This is the default.
-g convert group quota file.
-V print version information.
FILES
aquota.user new user quota file
aquota.group new group quota file
