— Import Group Quotas: Import group quotas into the system from an
external file (an exported file or a text version of an Excel spreadsheet in
the proper format, using the correct syntax). The file is read in, and quotas
are applied, for every group in that file. This allows you to apply quotas
for all groups at once, instead of changing each individually.
— Export Group Quotas: Exports all group quotas to a file. This file
contains a line for every group in the system as well as their particular
quotas. (The numbers in the line with "root" indicates the default values.
"-1" means the group quota is default.) Since all group list files and quota
files are in text form, you can easily use the file to perform editing.

specific settings. This file may be useful as a starting point for creating an
import group quota file.
