21 <P><STRONG>Purpose</STRONG>
22 <P>Verifies proper inode configuration
23 <P><STRONG>Synopsis</STRONG>
24 <PRE><B>xfs_size_check</B>
26 <P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
27 <P>The <B>xfs_size_check</B> command, when run on a file server machine
28 that runs IRIX version 6.2 or higher and uses XFS-formatted partitions
29 as server partitions (conventionally mounted at <B>/vicep</B>
30 directories), verifies that each partition uses 512-byte inodes. AFS
31 stores information in the inodes on server partitions, and the 256-byte inode
32 size that XFS uses by default is not large enough.
33 <P><STRONG>Cautions</STRONG>
34 <P>This command is available on in the AFS distribution for IRIX system types
35 that can use XFS-formatted partitions as server partitions.
36 <P><STRONG>Output</STRONG>
37 <P>If all server partitions are properly configured, the command produces no
38 output. Otherwise, it prints the following header:
39 <PRE> Need to remake the following partitions:
42 <P>and then the following message for each partition on which to run the IRIX
43 <B>mkfs</B> command with the indicated options:
44 <PRE> <VAR>device</VAR>: mkfs -t xfs -i size=512 -l size=4000b <VAR>device</VAR>
47 <P>where <VAR>device</VAR> is in a format like <B>/dev/dsk/dks0d0s0</B> for
48 a single disk partition or <B>/dev/xlv/xlv0</B> for a logical
50 <P><STRONG>Privilege Required</STRONG>
51 <P>The issuer must be logged in as the local superuser <B>root</B>.
