DESCRIPTION

23       When mfsmetarestore is called with both -m and -o options, it replays
24       given CHANGELOGFILEs on OLDMETADATAFILE and writes result to
25       NEWMETADATAFILE. Multiple change log files can be given.
26
27       mfsmetarestore with just -m METADATAFILE option dumps LizardFS metadata
28       image file in human readable form.
29
30       mfsmetarestore called with -a option automatically performs all
31       operations needed to merge change log files. Master data directory can
32       be specified using -d DIRECTORY option.
33
34       mfsmetarestore -g with path to metadata files, prints latest metadata
35       version that can be restored from disk. Prints 0 if metadata files are
36       corrupted.
