Server Utilities
nwvm
nwvm
Purpose
Modifies information from the voltab file and repairs/optimizes the NetWare
inodes file. The NetWare server must be down for you to use the nwvm
utility.
Syntax
nwvm [-B|-M]
volname
[-o option]
Parameter Use to
-B Can be used to rebuild an existing usinodes file
for a volume if this usinodes file is suspected
of being corrupted. Before doing the rebuild,
the following three files have to exist in the
control directory/path for the
volume:usinodes, extendedNames and
trustee.sys.
This option will save the old file in the control
directory as usinodes.old and will save the old
extended names file as extendedNames.old. To
preserve the trustee information when
rebuilding the usinodes file, it will also create
a file in the same control directory called
ChangeTrustees. At NetWare startup time, this
file will be used to resynchronize the trustee
file trustee.sys with the newly created usinodes
file.
