NAME

ncheck - generate a list of path names versus i-numbers

SYNOPSIS

ncheck [-F FSType] [-V] [generic_options]
[-o FSType-specific_options] [special]...

DESCRIPTION

ncheck with no options generates a path-name versus i-number list of
all files on special. If special is not specified on the command
line the list is generated for all specials in /etc/vfstab which
have a numeric fsckpass. special is the raw device on which the file
system exists.

OPTIONS

-F
Specify the FSType on which to operate. The
FSType should either be specified here or be
determinable from /etc/vfstab by finding an entry
in the table that has a numeric fsckpass field
and an fsckdev that matches special.

-V
Echo the complete command line, but do not execute
the command. The command line is generated by
using the options and arguments provided by the
user and adding to them information derived from
/etc/vfstab. This option may be used to verify and
validate the command line.

generic_options
Options that are commonly supported by most
FSType-specific command modules. The following
options are available:

-i i-list
Limit the report to the files on the
i-list that follows. The i-list must
be separated by commas with no
intervening spaces.

-a
Print the names "." and ".." which
are ordinarily suppressed.

-s
Report only special files and files
with set-user-ID mode. This option
may be used to detect violations of
security policy.

-o
Specify FSType-specific_options in a comma
separated (without spaces) list of suboptions and
keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation by the
FSType-specific module of the command.

USAGE

See largefile(7) for the description of the behavior of ncheck when
encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2^31 bytes).

FILES

/etc/vfstab
list of default parameters for each file system

NOTES
