|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
command invokes filesystem-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 filesystems are specified, and ``preen'' mode is enabled (
|
|
|
|
.Fl p
|
|
|
|
option)
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
reads the table
|
|
|
|
.Pa /etc/fstab
|
|
|
|
to determine which filesystems to check.
|
|
|
|
Only partitions in fstab that are mounted ``rw,'' ``rq'' or ``ro''
|
|
|
|
and that have non-zero pass number are checked.
|
|
|
|
Filesystems with pass number 1 (normally just the root filesystem)
|
2001-03-30 08:01:34 +00:00
|
|
|
are always checked one at a time.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
If not in preen mode, the remaining entries are checked in order of
|
|
|
|
increasing pass number one at a time.
|
|
|
|
This is needed when interaction with fsck is required.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
In preen mode, after pass 1 completes, all remaining filesystems are checked,
|
|
|
|
in pass number order running one process per disk drive in parallel for each
|
|
|
|
pass number in increasing order.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
In other words: In preen mode all pass 1 partitions are checked sequentially.
|
|
|
|
Next all pass 2 partitions are checked in parallel, one process per disk drive.
|
|
|
|
Next all pass 3 partitions are checked in parallel, one process per disk drive.
|
|
|
|
etc.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
2000-12-27 22:28:40 +00:00
|
|
|
The disk drive containing each filesystem is inferred from the shortest prefix
|
2000-10-09 10:26:15 +00:00
|
|
|
of the device name that ends in a digit; the remaining characters are assumed
|
2001-03-30 08:01:34 +00:00
|
|
|
to be the partition and slice designators.
|
2000-10-09 10:26:15 +00:00
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
|
|
Debugging mode. Just print the commands without executing them. Available
|
|
|
|
only if
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
is compiled to support it.
|
|
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
|
|
Force checking of filesystems, even when they are marked clean (for filesystems
|
|
|
|
that support this).
|

|
|
|

list starts with

.Dq no
|
|
|
|
then invoke
|
|

.Nm

for the filesystem types that are not specified in the list.
|
