Notes

The rquotad service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

svc:/network/nfs/rquota

Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). Responsibility for initiating and restarting this service is delegated to inetd(1M). Use inetadm(1M) to make configuration changes and to view configuration information for this service. The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.

If it is disabled, it is enabled by mount_nfs(1M), share_nfs(1M), and automountd(1M) unless its application/auto_enable property is set to false.
