  fsstat(8)                           CLIX                           fsstat(8)



  NAME

    fsstat - Reports file system status

  SYNOPSIS

    /etc/fsstat special

  DESCRIPTION

    The fsstat command reports on the status of the file system on special.
    During startup, this command is used to determine if the file system needs
    to be checked before it is mounted.  The fsstat command succeeds if the
    file system is unmounted and appears okay.  For the root file system, it
    succeeds if the file system is active and not marked bad.

    If the special argument is of a type other than fs, the fsstat command
    determines the file system identifier with the sysfs function, forms a
    pathname from it, and executes the corresponding program.  For example, if
    the file system identifier is FFS, the fsstat command executes the
    ffsfsstat command.

  EXAMPLES

    The following displays a message telling whether or not the /usr file
    system is okay:

    fsstat /dev/dsk/s0u0p7.3


  CAUTIONS

    The fsstat command works only on unmounted file systems.

  DIAGNOSTICS

    fsstat: device mounted
           The device is a mounted file system.  (The fsstat command works
           only on unmounted file systems.)

    fsstat: device not a valid file system
           The device has not been formatted as a file system, or it contains
           an unknown file system type.

  EXIT VALUES

    The fsstat command returns 0 when the file system is not mounted and
    appears okay (except for root where 0 means mounted and okay).  A value of
    1 indicates that the file system is not mounted and needs to be checked.
    A value of 2 indicates that the file system is mounted.  A value of 3
    indicates that the command failed.
