[PATCH] xfs_repair is recommended over xfs_check.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I see "use xfs_repair instead of xfs_check" hint on xfs@irc, mailing
lists and other places but the first source of information (xfs_check
man page) doesn't mention this. Improve that.
