DIAGNOSE FILESET Command
•
Downgrade a D40-version catalog (Version 2 fileset catalog) to a D30-version
catalog (Version 1 fileset catalog) to remove support for symbolic links.
If you attempt to downgrade to a fileset version that not supported on the RVU
running on the system, no downgrade occurs.
If the DOWNGRADE option is omitted, no downgrade occurs.
When the DOWNGRADE option is specified, you cannot specify the STATUS,
REPAIR, or UPGRADE option.
Considerations
•
You might specify a new processor with the CPU parameter if the processor on
which FSCK normally runs has stopped. You might also specify a particular
processor for load balancing.
•
You cannot use the DIAGNOSE FILESET command on a fileset that is in the
STARTED state (mounted).
•
When the DIAGNOSE FILESET command is used, the fileset is placed in the
DIAGNOSING state until the integrity check is complete. Then the fileset is placed
in the STOPPED state and can be remounted with the SCF START FILESET
command unless serious inconsistencies remain unrepaired.
•
You can use the SCF STATUS FILESET command to determine whether the
integrity check is complete.
•
If FSCK fails, the fileset is placed in the UNKNOWN state.
•
The FSCK utility checks for the inconsistencies listed in Table 5-2 on page 5-29.
•
The DIAGNOSE FILESET command can be used only by super-group users
(255,nnn).
Examples
•
To check the integrity of the fileset USER1, not repair any inconsistencies, and
send informational messages to the file CMDLOG, first use the SCF STOP
FILESET command to stop (unmount) the fileset and then enter the following
command:
DIAGNOSE /OUT CMDLOG/ FILESET USER1
•
To check the integrity of the fileset USER1, repair all inconsistencies, produce a
detailed report, and send informational messages to the file CMDLOG, first use the
Caution. When you downgrade a fileset’s catalog to a D30 version (Version 1), all symbolic
links in that fileset are removed. Attempts to access files in that fileset through symbolic links
from other filesets will fail. Version 1 filesets are not supported on G06.29 and later G-series
RVUs.
