Incidentally I put the latest release of the Livermore quota clients up on sourceforge here: http://rquota.sourceforge.net/ Basically it''s quota and repquota for NFS and Lustre only. There is no "local" file system support. A tip of the hat to Nicholas Cardo of LBNL who described LBNL''s quota tool at the 2008 LUG, and got me thinking I should add Lustre support to our client. Any feedback welcome. Jim

We could also consider adding local quota capability and quotactl to ours, making it a true drop-in replacement if there is a benefit in doing so. Jim
