NAME

dcopy (s5) − copy s5 file systems for optimal access time

SYNOPSIS

dcopy [−F s5] [generic_options] [−sX] [−an] [−d] [−v] [−ffsize[:isize]] inputfs outputfs

DESCRIPTION

generic_options are options supported by the generic dcopy command. 

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 options are:

−F s5 Specifies the s5-FSType.  Need not be supplied if the information may be obtained from /etc/vfstab by matching the inputfs device with an entry in the file. 

−sX Supply device information for creating an optimal organization of blocks in a file.  X must be of the form cylinder size:gap size. 

−an Place the files not accessed in n days after the free blocks of the destination file system If no n is specified then no movement occurs. 

−d Leave order of directory entries as is.  The default is to move sub-directories to the beginning of directories. 

−v Reports how many files were processed and how big the source and destination freelists are. 

−f fsize[:isize]
Specify the outputfs file system (fsize) and inode list (isize) sizes in logical blocks.  If the suboption (or :isize) is not given, the values from 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. 

NOTES

fsck should be run on the new file system created by dcopy before it is mounted. 

FILES

/etc/mnttablist of file systems currently mounted
