NAME
fsdb (generic) - file system debugger
SYNOPSIS
fsdb [-F FSType] [-V] [ current_options] [-o
specific_options] special
DESCRIPTION
fsdb is a file system debugger which allows for the manual
repair of a file system after a crash. special is a special
device used to indicate the file system to be debugged.
fsdb is intended for experienced users only. FSType is the
file system type to be debugged. Since different FSTypes
have different structures and hence different debugging
capabilities the manual pages for the FSType-specific fsdb
should be consulted for a more detailed description of the
debugging capabilities.
current_options are options supported by the s5-specific
module of fsdb. Other FSTypes do not necessarily support
these options. specific_options indicate suboptions speci-
fied in a comma-separated list of suboptions and/or
keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation by the FSType-
specific module of the command.
The options are:
-F Specify the FSType on which to operate. The FSType
should either be specified here or be determinable
from /etc/vfstab by matching the special with an
entry in the table.
-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 should be used to verify
and validate the command line.
-o Specify FSType-specific options.
NOTE
This command may not be supported for all FSTypes.
