75 <para>Setting the <emphasis role="bold">-maxquota</emphasis> argument to <emphasis role="bold">0</emphasis> (zero) sets an
76 unlimited quota on the volume, which enables you to copy all of the files into the volume without exceeding its quota. If
77 you wish, you can set the volume's quota to a finite value after you complete the copying operation. At that point, use
78 the <emphasis role="bold">vos examine</emphasis> command to determine how much space the volume is occupying. Then issue
79 the <emphasis role="bold">fs setquota</emphasis> command to set a quota that is slightly larger.</para>
