ff(1M)                           UNIX System V                           ff(1M)


NAME
      ff (generic) - list file names and statistics for a file system

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

DESCRIPTION
      ff reads the files and directories of the special file.  I-node data is
      saved for files which match the selection criteria which is either the
      inode number and/or inode age.  Output consists of the path name and
      other file information.  Output fields are positional.  The output is
      produced in i-node order.  The default line produced by ff is:

            path-name i-number

      current_options are options supported by the s5-specific module of ff.
      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
                matching the special with an entry in the table.

      -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        Specify FSType-specific options.

NOTE
      This command may not be supported for all FSTypes.

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