xfs_size_check - Verifies proper IRIX inode configuration

=head1 SYNOPSIS

=for html
<div class="synopsis">

B<xfs_size_check>

=for html
</div>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The B<xfs_size_check> command, when run on a file server machine that runs
IRIX version 6.2 or higher and uses XFS-formatted partitions as server
partitions (conventionally mounted at F</vicep> directories), verifies
that each partition uses 512-byte inodes. AFS stores information in the
inodes on server partitions, and the 256-byte inode size that XFS uses by
default is not large enough.

=head1 CAUTIONS

This command is available on in the AFS distribution for IRIX system types
that can use XFS-formatted partitions as server partitions.

=head1 OUTPUT

If all server partitions are properly configured, the command produces no
output. Otherwise, it prints the following header:

   Need to remake the following partitions:

and then the following message for each partition on which to run the IRIX
B<mkfs> command with the indicated options:

   <device>: mkfs -t xfs -i size=512 -l size=4000b <device>

where <device> is in a format like C</dev/dsk/dks0d0s0> for a single disk
partition or C</dev/xlv/xlv0> for a logical volume.

The issuer must be logged in as the local superuser C<root>.
