fsck_vxfs sanity check
The
-m
option of
fsck(ADM)
is used by
mountall(ADM)
to determine if filesystems need
to be checked before they can be mounted.
The
VxFS-specific
fsck_vxfs(ADM)
checks for a valid superblock
to see if the filesystem is in the CLEAN state.
The checks are performed differently for the root
filesystem and for other filesystems. In all
cases, a message is displayed on
standard error output,
and the program terminates with an exit code.
If the filesystem is not mounted
as the root filesystem, the exit codes are:
0-
The filesystem is clean.
32-
The filesystem needs checking.
33-
The filesystem is already mounted.
34-
There was an error
when attempting to access the filesystem.
If the file is mounted as the root filesystem,
the exit codes are:
0-
The root filesystem is mounted read-only and is clean,
or the root filesystem is mounted read/write (and is
therefore clean).
32-
The root filesystem is mounted read-only
and needs checking.
34-
There was an error when attempting to access
the filesystem.
