  NAME

    ffsfsstat - Reports file system status

  SYNOPSIS

    /etc/ffsfsstat special-file

  FLAGS

    quiet   Suppresses displaying of messages to stderr.

  DESCRIPTION

    The ffsfsstat command reports the status of the file system listed in
    special-file, which must be type ffsfs.  The ffsfsstat command can be
    called from the fsstat command.

    During startup, this command determines if the file system needs to be
    checked before it is mounted.  The ffsfsstat command normally succeeds if
    the file system is unmounted and appears to be okay.  The root file system
    normally succeeds if the file system is active and not marked as bad.

  EXAMPLES

    1.  The following command displays a message telling whether or not the
        /usr file system is okay.

        ffsfsstat /dev/dsk/s0u0p7.3


    2.  The following command returns a 1 if the file system needs checking or
        a 0 otherwise.  This format is useful for shell scripts.

        ffsfsstat /dev/dsk/s0u0p7.3 quiet
