Question

How to check my quota limits?

Answer

When you are logged in on the UPPMAX system you can simply type uqouta. This will give you the quota limits and current usage for your home, glob and project folders. To get more quota, send a mail to support (support@uppmax.uu.se) and state how much, for how long time, and why you need it.

If you are a volume administrator for a multi-project volume named e.g. v999, you have these additional commands available:

  • uvquota (to see information about all such volumes)
  • uvquota v999 (to see information about volume v999)
  • cat /lynx/cvol/v999/uvquota.list (to see also hidden information about individual project directory quotas)
  • vi /lynx/cvol/v999/project_disk_quotas (to edit, with the editor vi, the individual project directory quotas)
