3 | FORCESALVAGE - Forces salvage of entire partition | |
4 | ||
5 | =head1 DESCRIPTION | |
6 | ||
7 | The F<FORCESALVAGE> file, if present on an AFS server partition (that is, | |
8 | in a F</vicep> directory), signals that the Salvager must salvage the | |
9 | entire partition. The AFS-modified version of the B<fsck> program creates | |
10 | the empty (zero-length) file when it discovers corruption on the | |
11 | partition. The Salvager removes the file when it completes the salvage | |
12 | operation. | |
13 | ||
14 | When the File Server detects the presence of the file on a partition on | |
15 | which it is attaching volumes, it stops, detaches any volumes that are | |
16 | already attached, and exits after recording a message in the | |
17 | F</usr/afs/logs/FileLog> file. The Bos Server then invokes the Salvager to | |
18 | salvage the partition. | |
