ff(8) CLIX ff(8)
NAME
ff - Lists filenames and statistics for a file system
SYNOPSIS
/etc/ff [-I] [-l] [-p prefix] [-s] [-u] [-a n] [-m n] [-c n] [-n file] [-
inode-list] special
FLAGS
The flags are as follows:
-I Does not display the inode number after each pathname.
-l Generates a supplementary list of all pathnames for
multiply-linked files.
-p prefix Adds the specified prefix to each generated pathname. The
default is . (dot).
-s Displays the file size, in bytes, after each pathname.
-u Displays the owner's login name after each pathname.
-a n Selected if the inode has been accessed in n days.
-m n Selected if the inode has been modified in n days.
-c n Selected if the inode has been changed in n days.
-n file Selected if the inode has been modified more recently than
the argument file.
-i inode-list Generates names for only those inodes specified in inode-
list.
DESCRIPTION
The ff command lists filenames and statistics for a file system. The
command reads the i-list and directories of the special file, assuming it
is a file system. Inode data is saved for files which match the selection
criteria. Output consists of the pathname for each saved inode, plus
other file information requested using the display flags below. Output
fields are positional. The output is produced in inode order; fields are
separated by tabs. The default line produced by ff is:
ff: pathname i-number
With all flags enabled, output fields would be:

ff(8) CLIX ff(8)
ff: pathname i-number size uid
The argument n in the flag descriptions that follow is used as a decimal
integer (optionally signed), where +n means more than n, -n means less
than n, and n means exactly n. A day is defined as a 24 hour period.
EXAMPLES
To generate a table with the pathname, inode, size, and user ID for those
inodes listed in the /usr file system.
ff -s -u -i 394 874 2834 /dev/dsk/sOuOp7.3
NOTES
The ff command will not work with fast-file systems.
If the -l flag is not specified, only a single pathname out of all
possible ones is generated for a multiply-linked inode. If -l is
specified, all possible names for every linked file on the file system are
included in the output. However, no selection criteria applies to the
names generated.
EXIT VALUES
The ff command exits with a value of 0 if successful. It exits with a
value of 1 if an error has occurred.
