convertquota
converts old quota files
quota.user
and
quota.group
to files
aquota.user
and
aquota.group
in new format currently used by 2.4.0-ac? and newer or by SuSE or Red Hat Linux 2.4 kernels on
filesystem.
New file format allows using quotas for 32-bit uids / gids, setting quotas for root,
accounting used space in bytes (and so allowing use of quotas in ReiserFS) and it
is also architecture independent. This format introduces Radix Tree (a simple form of tree
structure) to quota file.
OPTIONS
-u, --user
convert user quota file. This is the default.
-g, --group
convert group quota file.
-f, --convert-format oldformat,newformat
convert quota file from
oldformat
to
newformat.
-e, --convert-endian
convert vfsv0 file format from big endian to little endian (old kernels had
a bug and did not store quota files in little endian format).
