NAME

intro − introduction to system maintenance and operation commands

DESCRIPTION

The Section 8 DEC OSF/1 reference pages are made up of an OSF-supplied component and a Digital-supplied component.  The title line of an OSF-supplied reference page carries an "OSF" label while the Digital-supplied reference pages are labeled "Digital". 

If OSF-supplied code operates differently on Digital platforms or has Digital extensions, an Environment Notes section is added to the OSF-supplied reference page. All reference pages that have an Environment Notes section have an "Environment_Note_Added" label added to the title line. 

When needed, technical corrections have been made to the OSF-supplied reference pages. 

The suffixes used on some Digital-supplied reference pages are used only to allow reference pages with the same base name to exist on DEC OSF/1 systems. When used, suffixes are made up of one to four letters. See the man(1) reference page for more information on suffixes. 

This section contains information related to system operation and maintenance. In particular, commands used to create new file systems, newfs , and verify the integrity of the file systems, fsck , icheck , and ncheck are described here.
