ff(1M) ff(1M)

NAME

ff - list ﬁle names and statistics for a ﬁle system

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/ff [-F FStype][-o

speciﬁc_options][-V] special ...

DESCRIPTION

The

ff command reads the i-list and directories of each special ﬁle, assuming it to be a ﬁle system, saving

i-node data for ﬁles that match the selection criteria. Output consists of the path name for each saved i-

node, plus any other ﬁle information requested with the

-o option. Output ﬁelds are positional. The out-

put is produced in i-node order; ﬁelds are separated by tabs. The default line produced by

ff includes the

path name and i-number ﬁelds.

Options and Arguments

ff recognizes the following options and arguments:

-F FStype Specify the ﬁle system type on which to operate (see fstyp(1M) and fs_wrapper(5)). If

this option is not included on the command line, then the ﬁle system type is deter-

mined from the ﬁle

/etc/fstab by matching each special with an entry in that ﬁle.

If there is no entry in /etc/fstab, then the ﬁle system type is determined from

the ﬁle /etc/default/fs

-o specific_options

Specify options speciﬁc to each ﬁle system type. speciﬁc_options is a list of suboptions

and/or keyword/attribute pairs intended for a speciﬁc FStype-speciﬁc module of the

command. See the ﬁle-system-speciﬁc man pages for a description of the

speciﬁc_options supported, if any.

-V Echo the completed command line, but perform no other action. The command line is

generated by incorporating the user-speciﬁed options and other information derived

from /etc/fstab . This option allows the user to verify the command line.

EXAMPLES

List the path names and i-numbers of all ﬁles in the ﬁle system /dev/dsk/c1d2s0

ff /dev/dsk/c1d2s0

Execute the ff command on HFS ﬁle system /dev/dsk/c1d2s0

ff -F hfs /dev/dsk/c1d2s0

Display a completed command line without executing the command:

ff -V /dev/dsk/c1d2s0

FILES

/etc/default/fs File that speciﬁes the default system type.

/etc/fstab Static information about the ﬁle systems.
