| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .B convertquota |
| converts old quota files |
| .BR quota.user |
| and |
| .BR quota.group |
| to files |
| .BR aquota.user |
| and |
| .BR 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 |
| .IR filesystem . |
| .PP |
| 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. |
