NAME
     dcopy (s5) - copy s5 file systems for optimal access time

SYNOPSIS
     dcopy  [-F  s5]  [generic_options]  [-sX]  [-an]  [-d]  [-v]
     [-ffsize[:isize]] inputfs outputfs

DESCRIPTION
     generic_options are options supported by the  generic  dcopy
     command.

     With no options, dcopy copies files from inputfs compressing
     directories by removing vacant entries, and spacing consecu-
     tive blocks in a file by the optimal rotational gap.

     The options are:

     -F s5     Specifies the s5-FSType.  Need not be supplied  if
               the  information  may be obtained from /etc/vfstab
               by matching the inputfs device with  an  entry  in
               the file.

     -sX       Supply device information for creating an  optimal
               organization  of  blocks  in a file.  X must be of
               the form cylinder size:gap size.

     -an       Place the files not accessed in n days  after  the
               free blocks of the destination file system If no n
               is specified then no movement occurs.

     -d        Leave order  of  directory  entries  as  is.   The
               default  is  to move sub-directories to the begin-
               ning of directories.

     -v        Reports how many files were processed and how  big
               the source and destination freelists are.

     -f fsize[:isize]
               Specify the outputfs file system (fsize) and inode
               list  (isize)  sizes  in  logical  blocks.  If the
               suboption (or :isize) is  not  given,  the  values
               from  inputfs  are used.  dcopy catches interrupts
               and quits and reports on its  progress.   To  ter-
               minate  dcopy,  send  a quit signal followed by an
               interrupt or quit.

NOTES
     fsck should be run on the new file system created  by  dcopy
     before it is mounted.

FILES
     /etc/mnttab    list of file systems currently mounted
