We have implemented a unified quota wrapper lquota that can be used to query the file systems space and inode (file or directory descriptor) quota on all file systems on all clusters that we have:

  • /cluster/home/$USER ($HOME, home directory)
  • /cluster/scratch/$USER ($SCRATCH, personal scratch directory)
  • /cluster/shadow (buffering stdout of running batch jobs)
  • /cluster/work (shareholder storage)
  • /cluster/project (shareholder storage)

Please find below the documentation about this command:

[leonhard@eu-login-07-ng ~]$ lquota -h
/cluster/apps/local/lquota: Command to check share/directory/project quotas on distruted filesystems
Usage: quota [-h] [-k] [-v] [directory]
-h    display this help message and exit
-k    display all numbers in KB instead of the default human readable format
-v    show verbose output on quota for Lustre devices. Ignored for NFS
If "directory" is not specified user's home and scratch directory are used as argument
[leonhard@eu-login-07-ng ~]$

If the command is run without specifying a particular path, then it displays the quota for the home directory, the personal scratch directory and the shadow file system. If a path is specified as argument to the script, then it will display the inode and space quota for this particular storage share:

For the moment, you might need to use the full path /cluster/apps/local/lquota to run the script. We will add it to the users path soon, such that you will not have to use the full path.
