Description

We can use the mmlsquota command to check user quotas in addition to project quotas. We can add a function to our .bashrc or .bash_profile for it like so:

quota-user() { /usr/lpp/mmfs/bin/mmlsquota --block-size=auto -v -u $1 data:user; }

This will check the current quota used and available specifically in /data/user for the given username. You can also check /scratch by changing data:user to scratch.

Research direction

Start by locating the documentation file that covers quota usage and read the surrounding guidance for shell commands. Add the proposed current-user quota function using mmlsquota, preserving the distinction between data:user and scratch; done means both quota locations are explained accurately.
