ncheck(1M)                                                       ncheck(1M)


   NAME
         ncheck (generic) - generate a  list of path names vs i-numbers

   SYNOPSIS
         ncheck [-F FSType] [-V] [current_options] [-o specific_options]
         [special...]

   DESCRIPTION
         ncheck with no options generates a path-name vs. i-number list of all
         files on special.  If special is not specified on the command line
         the list is generated for all specials in /etc/vfstab for entries
         which have a numeric fsckpass.  special is a block special device on
         which the file system exists.

         current_options are options supported by the s5-specific module of
         ncheck.  Other FSTypes do not necessarily support these options.
         specific_options indicate suboptions specified in a comma-separated
         list of suboptions and/or keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation
         by the FSType-specific module of the command.

         The options are:

         -F        Specify the FSType on which to operate.  The FSType should
                   either be specified here or be determinable from
                   /etc/vfstab by finding an entry in the table that has a
                   numeric fsckpass field and a matching special if specified.

         -V        Echo the complete command line, but do not execute the
                   command.  The command line is generated by using the
                   options and arguments provided by the user and adding to
                   them information derived from /etc/vfstab.  This option
                   should be used to verify and validate the command line.

         -o        used to specify FSType specific options if any.

   NOTE
         This command may not be supported for all FSTypes.

   FILES
         /etc/vfstab       list of default parameters for each file system
