There are 2 quota file formats:
- v1 format is limited to 32-bit;
- v2 format is 64-bit aware.
The conversion from v1 to v2 is handled transparently by lustre.

Based on this, the meaning of quota type is the following:
- ug means that both user & group quotas are enabled;
- 1 means that both administrative & operational quota files
    use a v1 file format (32-bit);
- 2 means that the administrative quota file uses a v2 format
   (64-bit) and that the operational quota files use a v1 format;
- 3 means that both admin & operational quotas files use
   a v2 format (64-bit).

This is supposed to be documented. I'll check with our
doc team why it is not.
