We have a default quota of 10M, which is the first line in /etc/quotas:

* user 10M 10K

Here is a quota report for a user with no entry in /etc/quotas:

quota report /h1/s/sj/sjs3j

Type ID Volume Tree Used Limit Used Limit Quota Specifier ----- -------- -------- -------- ------- ------- -------- -------- --------------- user 30967 vol0 - 472 10240 113 10240

So now I add this line to /etc/quotas

/h1/s/sj/sjs3j user 20M 20K

And I run

quota resize quota report /h1/s/sj/sjs3j

Type ID Volume Tree Used Limit Used Limit Quota Specifier ----- -------- -------- -------- ------- ------- -------- -------- --------------- user 30967 vol0 - 472 10240 113 10240

The quota for this user has not changed. Only turning quotas off and back on does the trick.

The quota resize command issued no error. I read an earlier post to this list that indicated that this was fixed. Has anyone actually gotten this to work?
