SALVOL (SALVAGE_VOLUME) -- Verify and correct allocation of disk blocks.
usage:  SALVOL


FORMAT

  From AEGIS: SALVOL

  From Mnemonic Debugger: EX SALVOL


  Each  logical  volume  is  divided  into  disk blocks. SALVOL verifies and, if
  necessary, corrects the tables that describe the allocation of disk blocks  to
  the  files  stored on the disk. SALVOL also returns to the free space pool all
  blocks that are no longer in use: those allocated to  temporary  files  or  to
  deleted portions of permanent files.

  SALVOL can usually restore a disk after a system crash or an improper dismount
  of  a  volume.  Please refer to the appropriate appendix in the "DOMAIN System
  Command Reference Manual" for complete information on the use of this software
  tool.

  SALVOL prompts for all required arguments and options.
