NAME

6       xfs_ncheck - generate pathnames from i-numbers for XFS

SYNOPSIS

9       xfs_ncheck [ -i ino ] ... [ -f ] [ -s ] [ -l logdev ] device
10       xfs_ncheck -V

DESCRIPTION

13       xfs_ncheck  with no -i arguments generates an inode number and pathname
14       list of all files on the given filesystem. Names of directory files are
15       followed by /..  The output is not sorted in any particular order.  The
16       filesystem to be examined is specified by the  device  argument,  which
17       should  be  the  disk or volume device for the filesystem.  Filesystems
18       stored in files can also be checked, using the -f flag.
19

OPTIONS

21       -f       Specifies that the filesystem image to be processed is  stored
22                in a regular file at device (see the mkfs.xfs -d file option).
23                This might happen if an image copy of a  filesystem  has  been
24                made into an ordinary file.
25
26       -l logdev
27                Specifies  the  device  where  the  filesystem's  external log
28                resides.  Only for those filesystems  which  use  an  external
29                log.  See  the  mkfs.xfs  -l option, and refer to xfs(5) for a
30                detailed description of the XFS log.
31
32       -s       Limits the report to special files and  files  with  setuserid
33                mode.   This  option may be used to detect violations of secu‐
34                rity policy.
35
36       -i ino   Limits the report to only those files whose inode numbers fol‐
37                low.   May  be  given  multiple times to select multiple inode
38                numbers.
39
40       -V       Prints the version number and exits.
41
42       If the filesystem is seriously corrupted, or very busy and  looks  like
43       it  is  corrupt,  a  message of the form that would be generated by the
44       xfs_db(8) "check" command may appear.
45
46       xfs_ncheck is only useful with XFS filesystems.
