13.1.6. Assigning Quotas per File System

To assign quotas based on each file system enabled for quotas, use the command: 

 edquota -t

Like the other edquota commands, this one opens the current quotas for the file system in the text editor: 

Grace period before enforcing soft limits for users:
Time units may be: days, hours, minutes, or seconds
  Filesystem                       Block grace period  Inode grace period
  /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02       7days                7days

Change the block grace period or inode grace period, save the changes to the file, and exit the text editor.
