fsirand(1)                                             fsirand(1)



NAME
     fsirand - install random inode generation numbers

SYNOPSIS
     fsirand [ -p ] special

DESCRIPTION
     fsirand installs random inode generation numbers on all the
     inodes on device special, and also installs a filesystem ID
     in the superblock.  This helps increase the security of
     filesystems exported by NFS.

     fsirand must be used only on an unmounted filesystem that
     has been checked with fsck(1M).  The only exception is that
     it can be used on the root filesystem in single-user mode,
     if the system is immediately re-booted afterwords.

     The -p option prints out the generation numbers for all the
     inodes, but does not change the generation numbers.
