15.4. Displaying Quota Limit Information

You can display quota limit information on all of the directories on which a limit is set.
To display quota limit information on all of the directories on which a limit is set, use the following command:
# gluster volume quota VOLNAME list
For example, to view the quota limits set on test-volume:
# gluster volume quota test-volume list
Path       Hard-limit  Soft-limit   Used    Available
------------------------------------------------------
/           50GB        75%       0Bytes    50.0GB
/dir        10GB        75%       0Bytes    10.0GB
/dir/dir2   20GB        90%       0Bytes    20.0GB
To display disk limit information on a particular directory on which limit is set, use the following command:
# gluster volume quota VOLNAME list /<directory_name>
For example, to view limits set on /dir directory of the volume /test-volume :
# gluster volume quota test-volume list /dir
Path  Hard-limit   Soft-limit   Used   Available
-------------------------------------------------
/dir   10.0GB          75%       0Bytes  10.0GB
To display disk limit information on multiple directories on which a limit is set, using the following command:
# gluster volume quota VOLNAME list /<directory_name1> /<directory_name2>
For example, to view quota limits set on directories /dir and /dir/dir2 of volume test-volume :
# gluster volume quota test-volume list /dir /dir/dir2
Path    Hard-limit   Soft-limit   Used     Available
------------------------------------------------------
/dir       10.0GB        75%        0Bytes     10.0GB
/dir/dir2  20.0GB        90%        0Bytes     20.0GB

15.4.1. Displaying Quota Limit Information Using the df Utility

To report the disk usage using the df utility, taking quota limits into consideration, run the following command:
# gluster volume set VOLNAME quota-deem-statfs on
In this case, the total disk space of the directory is taken as the quota hard limit set on the directory of the volume.
The following example displays the disk usage when quota-deem-statfs is off:
# gluster volume set test-volume features.quota-deem-statfs off
volume set: success
# gluster volume quota test-volume list
Path        Hard-limit    Soft-limit     Used     Available
-----------------------------------------------------------
/              300.0GB        90%        11.5GB     288.5GB
/John/Downloads 77.0GB        75%        11.5GB     65.5GB
Disk usage for volume test-volume as seen on client1:
# df -hT /home
Filesystem           Type            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
server1:/test-volume fuse.glusterfs  400G   12G  389G   3% /home
The following example displays the disk usage when quota-deem-statfs is on:
# gluster volume set test-volume features.quota-deem-statfs on
volume set: success
# gluster vol quota test-volume list
Path        Hard-limit    Soft-limit     Used     Available
-----------------------------------------------------------
/              300.0GB        90%        11.5GB     288.5GB
/John/Downloads 77.0GB        75%        11.5GB     65.5GB
Disk usage for volume test-volume as seen on client1:
# df -hT /home
Filesystem            Type            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
server1:/test-volume  fuse.glusterfs  300G   12G  289G   4% /home
The quota-deem-statfs option when set to on, allows the administrator to make the user view the total disk space available on the directory as the hard limit set on it.
