When the quota function is enabled for the first time, the number of usage files and number of usage blocks for each user is matched automatically in the GFS Local File System. The processing time required to match quota data depends on the number of files.
A log of the internal quotas file is collected if the quota function is enabled. Therefore, quota data does not have to be matched even in the event of a system failure.
If the quota function is disabled and the system subsequently updated for any reason (e.g., file creation, deletion), the numbers of files and blocks used by a user do not match the values in the internal quotas file. Therefore, additional time is required to match the data if the quota function is enabled again.
Specifically, the sfxquotaon(1M) or mount(1M) command takes additional time to return.
Therefore, the quota function must not be disabled if possible once it has been enabled.
