  NAME

    cafsfsck - Checks and repairs the Cache File System (CAFS)

  SYNOPSIS

    /bin/cafsfsck [-n]

  FLAGS

    -n        Runs a check on CAFS but does not modify the file system.  The
              -n flag is only for informational purposes.

  DESCRIPTION

    The cafsfsck command checks, verifies, and repairs inconsistent conditions
    for CAFS.  The cafsfsck command will be called by the cache start script
    to check CAFS.  The cafsfsck program rebuilds the free block bit map, the
    modified file list, and resets the file system sanity bit, as necessary.

    If the file system is consistent, the command returns with the CAFS is
    already OK reply.  If the file system is inconsistent, the file system is
    corrected.

    When cache starts up, a cafsfsstat command checks the integrity of CAFS.
    If checking is needed, the cafsfsck command automatically checks and
    repairs the file system upon start up.

  EXAMPLES

    To check and repair the Cache File System, key in the following:

    cafsfsck


  FILES

                          information.

  NOTES

    The cafsfsck command requires superuser privileges.

    cafsfsck: error determining if CAFS is running
           An error occurred while trying to determine if CAFS was running.
           The device file /dev/cache may be missing.


    cafsfsck: CAFS is running
           CAFS is running.  No file system checking operations can be
           performed on a running file system.


    cafsfsck: CAFS is already OK.  No fsck necessary.
           The CAFS is already in a mountable and clean state.  No repair
           operation is necessary.  No action was taken.


    cafsfsck: recovery was not enabled during runtime. Cannot fsck CAFS
           The recovery flag was not enabled in CAFS configuration file.
           Recovery is only possible for CAFS when it was invoked previously
           with recovery enabled.


    cafsfsck: Setting CAFS state to OK
           The CAFS was successfully repaired.  The CAFS state is being set to
           a mountable and clean state.


    cafsfsck: CAFS modified
           Repairs were necessary, and CAFS has been modified.


    cafsfsck: CAFS NOT modified
           The CAFS was not modified since the -n option, indicating no
           writing was to be performed to CAFS, was specified.

  EXIT VALUES

    The cafsfsck command exits with a value of 0 if successful.  If
