ncheck(1M)                       UNIX System V                       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.

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