  NAME

    sfsck - Checks and repairs file systems in parallel

  SYNOPSIS

    /etc/sfsck [arg ...]

  DESCRIPTION

    The sfsck command checks and repairs all filesystems listed in /etc/fstab.
    The optional arguments are passed to fsck; see fsck(8).

    The sfsck command reads the list of filesystems from /etc/fstyp and
    performs a check and repair on each one in parallel.  Filesystems of types
    PROC and CAFS are not processed by sfsck.  The sfsck command invokes
    fsck(8) in quiet mode (-q) to do the actual check and repair.

    The sfsck command generates a log of the output from each fsck and
    organizes it into a single log file, /etc/sfsck.log.

  EXAMPLES

    The following command performs a split fsck, automatically answering
    ``yes'' to questions asked by fsck:

    /etc/sfsck -y


  FILES

    /etc/fstab
           List of filesystems to be checked.

    /etc/sfsck.log
           Log file generated by sfsck.

    /tmp/sfsck.*
           Temporary files generated by sfsck.

  DIAGNOSTICS

    See fsck(8) for diagnostic information.

  NOTES

    The sfsck command is primarily used by init(8) at boot time to quickly
    check and repair filesystems.
