FORMAT DISK
Erases and reformats the router file system. This command should
only
be
used when the file system is unusable.
If the router does not execute the POST test and software boot successfully, and the result of the
dir
command
indicates the file system is corrupted, you may wish to reformat the disk, reboot the router, and recopy the router
software.
Example:
format disk
Response:
NEWFS: erasing disk...
NEWFS: fs is 381k and will have 762 sectors
NEWFS: 128 directory slots in 8 sectors
NEWFS: 747 fat entries in 3 sectors
NEWFS: writing boot block...done.
NEWFS: writing fat tables...done.
NEWFS: writing directory...done.
Filesystem formatted!
MSFS
Checks the file structure of the file system. This command performs a function similar to the DOS
chkdsk
command. The router analyzes the File Allocation Table (FAT) and produces a file system status report.
WARNING
: When specifying
fix
, make sure that no other operation is being performed on the configuration files
at the same time (by the Configuration Manager).
fix If fix is specified, errors are corrected in the FAT. This option should
only
be used when an
msfs
command results in a recommendation to apply the
fix
option.
Example:
msfs
Response:
Filesystem 0, size=825k:
