# [NAME](#NAME)

`zfs-project` — manage projects in ZFS filesystem

# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

`zfs` `project` \[`-d`|`-r`] `file`|`directory`…

`zfs` `project` `-C` \[`-kr`] `file`|`directory`…

`zfs` `project` `-c` \[`-0`] \[`-d`|`-r`] \[`-p` `id`] `file`|`directory`…

`zfs` `project` \[`-p` `id`] \[`-rs`] `file`|`directory`…

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

`zfs` `project` \[`-d`|`-r`] `file`|`directory`…

List project identifier (ID) and inherit flag of files and directories.

[`-d`](#d)

Show the directory project ID and inherit flag, not its children.

[`-r`](#r)

List subdirectories recursively.

`zfs` `project` `-C` \[`-kr`] `file`|`directory`…

Clear project inherit flag and/or ID on the files and directories.

[`-k`](#k)

Keep the project ID unchanged. If not specified, the project ID will be reset to zero.

[`-r`](#r~2)

Clear subdirectories' flags recursively.

`zfs` `project` `-c` \[`-0`] \[`-d`|`-r`] \[`-p` `id`] `file`|`directory`…

Check project ID and inherit flag on the files and directories: report entries without the project inherit flag, or with project IDs different from the target directory's project ID or the one specified with `-p`.

[`-0`](#0)

Delimit filenames with a NUL byte instead of newline, don't output diagnoses.

[`-d`](#d~2)

Check the directory project ID and inherit flag, not its children.

[`-p`](#p) `id`

Compare to `id` instead of the target files and directories' project IDs.

[`-r`](#r~3)

Check subdirectories recursively.

`zfs` `project` `-p` `id` \[`-rs`] `file`|`directory`…

Set project ID and/or inherit flag on the files and directories.

[`-p`](#p~2) `id`

Set the project ID to the given value.

[`-r`](#r~4)

Set on subdirectories recursively.

[`-s`](#s)

Set project inherit flag on the given files and directories. This is usually used for setting up tree quotas with `-r`. In that case, the directory's project ID will be set for all its descendants, unless specified explicitly with `-p`.
