|
|
.Nd file system consistency check and interactive repair
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Op Fl dfnPpqvy
|
|
.Op Fl l Ar maxparallel
|
|
.Op Fl T Ar fstype:fsoptions
|
|
.Op Fl t Ar fstype
|
|
.Op special | node ...
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command invokes file system-specific programs to check
|
|
the special devices listed in the
|
|
.Xr fstab 5
|
|
file or in the command line for consistency.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It is normally used in the script
|
|
.Pa /etc/rc
|
|
during automatic reboot.
|
|
If no file systems are specified, and ``preen'' mode is enabled (
|
|
.Fl p
|
|
option)
|
|
.Nm
|
|
reads the table
|
|
.Pa /etc/fstab
|
|
to determine which file systems to check, in what order.
|
|
Only partitions in fstab that are mounted ``rw,'' ``rq'' or ``ro''
|
|
and that have non-zero pass number are checked.
|
|
File systems with pass number 1 (normally just the root file system)
|
|
are checked one at a time.
|
|
When pass 1 completes, all remaining file systems are checked,
|
|
running one process per disk drive.
|
|
By default, file systems which are already mounted read-write are not checked.
|
|
The disk drive containing each file system is inferred from the longest prefix
|
|
of the device name that ends in a digit; the remaining characters are assumed
|
|
to be the partition designator.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
Debugging mode.
|
|
Just print the commands without executing them.
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
Force checking of file systems, even when they are marked clean (for file
|
|
systems that support this), or when they are mounted read-write.
|
|
.It Fl l Ar maxparallel
|
|
Limit the number of parallel checks to the number specified in
|
|
the following argument.
|
|
By default, the limit is the number of disks, running one process per disk.
|
|
If a smaller limit is given, the disks are checked round-robin,
|
|
one file system at a time.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
Causes
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to assume no as the answer to all operator questions, except "CONTINUE?".
|
|
.It Fl P
|
|
Display a progress meter for each file system check.
|
|
This option also disables parallel checking.
|
|
Note that progress meters are not supported by all file system types.
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
Enter preen mode.
|
|
In preen mode,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will check all file systems listed in
|
|
.Pa /etc/fstab
|
|
according to their pass number, and will make minor repairs without
|
|
human intervention.
|
|
Any major problems will cause
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to exit with a non-zero
|
|
.Xr exit 3
|
|
code, so as to alert any invoking program or script that human
|
|
intervention is required.
|
|
.It Fl q
|
|
Quiet mode, do not output any messages for clean filesystems.
|
|
.It Fl T Ar fstype:fsoptions
|
|
List of comma separated file system specific options for the specified
|
|
file system type, in the same format as
|
|
.Xr mount 8 .
|
|
.It Fl t Ar fstype
|
|
Invoke
|
|
.Nm
|
|
only for the comma separated list of file system types.
|
|
If the list starts with
|
|
.Dq no
|
|
then invoke
|
|
.Nm
|
|
for the file system types that are not specified in the list.
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
Print the commands before executing them.
|
|
.It Fl y
|
|
Causes
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to assume yes
|
|
as the answer to all operator questions.
