.SH NAME
|
|
dumpe2fs \- dump ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem information
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B dumpe2fs
|
|
[
|
|
.B \-bfghixV
|
|
]
|
|
[
|
|
.B \-o superblock=\fIsuperblock
|
|
]
|
|
[
|
|
.B \-o blocksize=\fIblocksize
|
|
]
|
|
.I device
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B dumpe2fs
|
|
prints the super block and blocks group information for the filesystem
|
|
present on
|
|
.I device.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B Note:
|
|
When used with a mounted filesystem, the printed
|
|
information may be old or inconsistent.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-b
|
|
print the blocks which are reserved as bad in the filesystem.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-o superblock=\fIsuperblock
|
|
use the block
|
|
.I superblock
|
|
when examining the filesystem.
|
|
This option is not usually needed except by a filesystem wizard who
|
|
is examining the remains of a very badly corrupted filesystem.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-o blocksize=\fIblocksize
|
|
use blocks of
|
|
.I blocksize
|
|
bytes when examining the filesystem.
|
|
This option is not usually needed except by a filesystem wizard who
|
|
is examining the remains of a very badly corrupted filesystem.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-f
|
|
force dumpe2fs to display a filesystem even though it may have some
|
|
filesystem feature flags which dumpe2fs may not understand (and which
|
|
can cause some of dumpe2fs's display to be suspect).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-g
|
|
display the group descriptor information in a machine readable colon-separated
|
|
value format. The fields displayed are the group number; the number of the
|
|
first block in the group; the superblock location (or -1 if not present); the
|
|
range of blocks used by the group descriptors (or -1 if not present); the block
|
|
bitmap location; the inode bitmap location; and the range of blocks used by the
|
|
inode table.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-h
|
|
only display the superblock information and not any of the block
|
|
group descriptor detail information.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-i
|
|
display the filesystem data from an image file created by
|
|
.BR e2image ,
|
|
using
|
|
.I device
|
|
as the pathname to the image file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-m
|
|
If the
|
|
.B mmp
|
|
feature is enabled on the filesystem, check if
|
|
.I device
|
|
is in use by another node, see
|
|
.BR e2mmpstatus (8)
|
|
for full details. If used together with the
|
|
.B \-i
|
|
option, only the MMP block information is printed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-x
|
|
print the detailed group information block numbers in hexadecimal format
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-V
|
|
print the version number of
|
|
.B dumpe2fs
|
|
and exit.
|
|
.SH EXIT CODE
|
|
.B dumpe2fs
|
|
exits with a return code of 0 if the operation completed without errors.
|
|
It will exit with a non-zero return code if there are any errors, such
|
|
as problems reading a valid superblock, bad checksums, or if the device
|
|
is in use by another node and
|
|
.B -m
|
|
is specified.
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
You may need to know the physical filesystem structure to understand the
|
|
output.
