xfs_ncheck - generate pathnames from inumbers for XFS
xfs_ncheck [ -i ino ] ... [ -s ] xfs_special
xfs_ncheck -f [ -i ino ] ... [ -s ] file
xfs_ncheck with no -i arguments generates an inode number and pathname list of all files on the given filesystem. Names of directory files are followed by /.. The output is not sorted in any particular order. The filesystem to be examined is specified by the xfs_special argument, which should be the disk or volume device for the filesystem. Filesystems stored in files can also be checked, using the -f flag.
The options to xfs_ncheck are:
|
-f |
Specifies that the special device is actually a file (see the mkfs.xfs -d file option). This might happen if an image copy of a filesystem has been made into an ordinary file. |
|
|
-s |
Limits the report to special files and files with setuserid mode. This option may be used to detect violations of security policy. |
|
|
-i ino |
Limits the report to only those files whose inode numbers follow. May be given multiple times to select multiple inode numbers. |
If the filesystem is seriously corrupted, or very busy and looks like it is corrupt, a message of the form that would be generated by xfs_check(8) may appear.
xfs_ncheck is only useful with XFS filesystems.
mkfs.xfs(8), xfs_ncheck(8), xfs_check(8), xfs(5).
