BADSECT(8) - System Manager's Manual

Fsck, Badsect

BADSECT(8) - System Manager’s Manual # BADSECT(8) - System Manager’s Manual NAME # badsect - create files to contain bad sectors SYNOPSIS # badsect bbdir sector … DESCRIPTION # badsect makes a file to contain a bad sector. Normally, bad sectors are made inaccessible by the standard formatter, which provides a forwarding table for bad sectors to the driver. If a driver supports the bad blocking standard, it is much more preferable to use that method to isolate bad blocks, since the bad block forwarding makes the pack appear perfect, and such packs can then be copied with dd(1). ...

CLRI(8) - System Manager’s Manual # CLRI(8) - System Manager’s Manual NAME # clri - clear inodes SYNOPSIS # clri special_device inode_number … DESCRIPTION # clri is obsoleted for normal file system repair work by fsck(8). clri zeros out the inodes with the specified inode numbers on the filesystem residing on the given special_device. The fsck(8) utility is usually run after clri to reclaim the zero’ed inodes and the blocks previously claimed by those inodes. ...

DAILY(8) - System Manager’s Manual # DAILY(8) - System Manager’s Manual NAME # daily, weekly, monthly - periodic system maintenance DESCRIPTION # The three files /etc/daily, /etc/weekly, and /etc/monthly are shell scripts run on a periodic basis by the clock daemon, cron(8). They take care of some basic administrative tasks. Their output, if any, is mailed to root. Note: The scripts are all run as part of root’s crontab(5). However, it is strongly suggested that the root mail account be an alias that forwards messages to a real user or set of users. ...

FSIRAND(8) - System Manager’s Manual # FSIRAND(8) - System Manager’s Manual NAME # fsirand - randomize inode generation numbers SYNOPSIS # fsirand [-bfp] special … DESCRIPTION # The fsirand command installs random generation numbers on all the inodes for each filesystem specified on the command line by special. This increases the security of NFS-exported filesystems by making it difficult to “guess” filehandles. Note: newfs(8) now does the equivalent of fsirand itself so it is no longer necessary to run fsirand by hand on a new filesystem. ...
