DESCRIPTION

       The vos setfields command can set the quota on a volume, and it can clear the access counter on a volume.
       This command differs from fs setquota because only the volume name is needed to set the quota, whereas
       the path to the volume is needed with fs setquota.

       If the -maxquota and -clearuse flags are missing, then no action is taken.

CAUTIONS

       This command is not effective on read-only or backup volumes.

OPTIONS

       -id <volume name or id>
           Identifies the volume on which to operate, either by its complete name or volume ID number.

       -maxquota <quota>
           Sets  the  maximum  amount  of  file  server disk space the volume can occupy.  The quota should be a
           positive integer followed by an optional suffix: "K" for kibibytes (1024 bytes, the default), "M" for
           mebibytes (1024 kibibytes),  "G"  for  gibibytes  (1024  mebibytes),  and  "T"  for  tebibytes  (1024
           gibibytes).  A value of 0 sets an unlimited quota, but the size of the disk partition that houses the
           volume places an absolute limit on the volume's size.

       -clearuse
           Clears  the  access  counter  on a volume, which is shown as "X accesses in the past day (i.e., vnode
           references)" in the vos examine output.

       -clearVolUpCounter
           Clears the modification counter on a volume. The modification counter will increment  with  time  and
           stop  updating  when  it  reaches  the  maximum value. This option will reset it to 0. This option is
           available in OpenAFS version 1.5.0 or later.

       -cell <cell name>
           Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with  the  -localauth  flag.
           For more details, see vos(1).

       -noauth
           Assigns  the  unprivileged  identity  "anonymous"  to  the  issuer. Do not combine this flag with the
           -localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).

       -localauth
           Constructs a server ticket using a key from  the  local  /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile  file.  The  vos
           command  interpreter  presents  it  to  the  Volume  Server  and Volume Location Server during mutual
           authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell argument or -noauth flag. For  more  details,
           see vos(1).

       -verbose
           Produces  on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's execution. If this argument
           is omitted, only warnings and error messages appear.

       -encrypt
           Encrypts the command so that the operation's results are not transmitted across the network in  clear
           text. This option is available in OpenAFS versions 1.4.11 or later and 1.5.60 or later.

       -noresolve
           Shows  all  servers  as  IP  addresses  instead  of the DNS name. This is very useful when the server
           address is registered as 127.0.0.1 or when dealing with multi-homed servers. This option is available
           in OpenAFS versions 1.4.8 or later and 1.5.35 or later.

       -config <configuration directory>
           Set the location of the configuration directory to be used. This defaults to /etc/openafs, except  if
           -localauth is specified, in which case the default is /etc/openafs/server. This option allows the use
           of alternative configuration locations for testing purposes.

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

OUTPUT

       This command produces no output other than error messages.

EXAMPLES

       To set a 123KB quota on the root.cell volume, the following command may be used:

          % vos setfields -id root.cell -maxquota 123

       To clear the access counter on the root.cell volume, use the following command:

          % vos setfields -id root.cell -clearuse

       The above commands may be combined as follows:

          % vos setfields -id root.cell -maxquota 123 -clearuse

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       The  issuer  must  be  listed  in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine specified with the
       -server argument and on each database server machine. If the -localauth flag is included, the issuer must
       instead be logged on to a server machine as the local superuser "root".
