  DCOPY(1M)       (System Administration Utilities)       DCOPY(1M)



  NAME
       dcopy - copy file systems for optimal access time

  SYNOPSIS
       /etc/dcopy [-sX] [-an] [-d] [-v] [-ffsize[:isize]] inputfs
       outputfs

  DESCRIPTION
       dcopy copies file system inputfs to outputfs.  Inputfs is
       the device file for the existing file system; outputfs is
       the device file to hold the reorganized result.  For the
       most effective optimization inputfs should be the raw device
       and outputfs should be the block device.  Both inputfs and
       outputfs should be unmounted file systems (in the case of
       the root file system, the copy must be to a new pack).

       With no options, dcopy copies files from inputfs compressing
       directories by removing vacant entries, and spacing
       consecutive blocks in a file by the optimal rotational gap.
       The possible options are

       -sX       supply device information for creating an optimal
                 organization of blocks in a file.  The forms of X
                 are the same as the -s option of fsck(1M).

       -an       place the files not accessed in n days after the
                 free blocks of the destination file system
                 (default for n is 7).  If no n is specified then
                 no movement occurs.

       -d        leave order of directory entries as is (default is
                 to move sub-directories to the beginning of
                 directories).

       -v        currently reports how many files were processed,
                 and how big the source and destination freelists
                 are.

       -ffsize[:isize]
                 specify the outputfs file system and inode list

                 sizes (in blocks).  If the option (or :isize) is
                 not given, the values from the inputfs are used.

       dcopy catches interrupts and quits, and reports on its
       progress.  To terminate dcopy send a quit signal, followed
       by an interrupt or quit.
