DESCRIPTION

The chkfstore command scans the file system on the specified device and
displays all inode numbers of those inodes that match the specified octal
fstore value, fstore_value.  The device name should identify a device
containing a primary or backbone copy of a replicated filesystem.

A common use of chkfstore is to check for files with an fstore value of 0 in
the replicated root filesystem.  0 is the fstore value assigned to files when
they are created and is often an indication of a file incorrectly installed.
Files in the root file system where a 0 fstore value would be correct (that is,
those files which should be stored only on the primary and backbone sites)
should be installed with an fstore value of none (020000000000).

Run chkfstore on the same type of machine as the the machine whose file system
is being checked.

This program is intended for the administrator.

FLAGS

Normally,  chkfstore will require the fstore_value equal to an inode's fstore
value for the two to match.  If the -i option is set chkfstore considers the
fstore values to match if all the one bits in fstore_value are  also ones in
the inode's fstore.

-l results in the inode fstore value to be displayed as well as the inode
number.
