NAME
ncheck_hfs: ncheck - generate a list of path names from inode numbers for a HFS file system
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/ncheck
[-F hfs][-V][-S sector_ranges
][-i inode-numbers ]
[
-a][-s][special ... ]
DESCRIPTION
ncheck, when invoked without arguments, generates a list of path names corresponding to the inode
numbers of all files contained on the HFS file systems listed in
/etc/fstab.Ifspecial is specified,
ncheck reports on the special only. Path names generated by
ncheck are relative to the given special .
Names of directory files are followed by
/.
Options
-a Allow printing of the names . and
.., which are ordinarily suppressed.
-F hfs Specify the HFS file system type.
-i inode-numbers
Report only on files whose inode numbers are specified on the command line, in
inode-numbers . inode-numbers is a comma separated list of inode numbers.
-s Report only on special files and regular files with set-user-ID mode. The -s
option
is intended to discover concealed violations of security policy.
-V Echo the completed command line, but performs 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.
-S sector_ranges
Report only on files using sector numbers specified on the command line in
sector_ranges . sector_ranges is a comma separated list of sector ranges. A sector
range is a starting sector number and an ending sector number separated by a
dash, or just a sector number. The sector numbers should be in DEV_BSIZE units.
If no pathname contains the sector number it will be reported as free or containing
file system structure. Sectors beyond the end of the file system will be reported as
illegal.
Access Control Lists
Continuation inodes (that is, inodes containing additional access control list information) are quietly
skipped since they do not correspond to any path name.
EXAMPLES
Execute the ncheck command on all special in /etc/fstab:
ncheck
Execute the ncheck command on HFS file system /dev/dsk/c1d2s0:
ncheck -F hfs /dev/dsk/c1d2s0
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
International Code Set Support
Single- and multi-byte character code sets are supported.
DIAGNOSTICS
When the file system structure is improper,
?? denotes the ‘‘parent’’ of a parentless file and a path-name
beginning with ... denotes a loop.
AUTHOR
ncheck was developed by AT&T and HP.
FILES
/etc/default/fs Specifies the default file system type.
/etc/fstab Static information about the file systems.
