NOTES
     quota displays quotas for NFS mounted UFS- or ZFS-based file
     systems  if  the rquotad daemon is running. See rquotad(1M).
     In a zones(5) environment, quota displays  quotas  only  for
     the zone in which it is invoked.


     quota can display entries for the same file system  multiple
     times for multiple mount points. For example,

       # quota -v user1




     might display identical quota information for user1  at  the
     mount  points  /home/user1,  /home/user2, and /home/user, if
     all three mount points are mounted from the same file system
     with quotas turned on.
