NAME
getext (vxfs) - get extent attributes
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/getext
[-F vxfs][-V][
-f][-s] file...
DESCRIPTION
getext displays extent attribute information associated with a set of files.
Options
-F vxfs Specify the VxFS file system type.
-V Echo the completed command line, but do not execute the command. The command
line is generated by incorporating the user-specified options. This option allows the
user to verify the command line.
-f Do not print the filenames for which extent attributes are displayed.
-s Do not print output for files that do not have fixed extent sizes or reservations.
OUTPUT
The following example shows a file with a block size of 1024 bytes, 36 blocks reserved, a fixed extent size of
3 blocks, and all extents aligned to 3 block boundaries:
file1: Bsize 1024 Reserve 36 Extent Size 3 align noextend
The file size cannot be extended once the current reservation is exhausted. Reservations and fixed extent
sizes are allocated in units of the file system block size.
NOTES
Only the align and noextend allocation flags (set through setext(1M) or the VX_SETEXT ioctl) are
persistent attributes of the file and therefore visible via
getext or the VX_GETEXT ioctl. trim is also
visible, although it is cleared and the reservation is reduced on the final close of the file.
