NAME
dcopy (s5) - copy s5 file systems for optimal access time
SYNOPSIS
dcopy [-F s5] [generic_options] [-sX] [-an] [-d] [-v] [-ffsize[:isize]] inputfs outputfs
DESCRIPTION
generic_options are options supported by the generic dcopy command.
With no options, dcopy copies files from inputfs compressing directories by removing vacant entries, and spacing consecutive blocks in a file by the optimal rotational gap.
The options are:
-F s5 Specifies the s5-FSType. Need not be supplied if the information may be obtained from /etc/vfstab by matching the inputfs device with an entry in the file.
-sX Supply device information for creating an optimal organization of blocks in a file. X must be of the form cylinder size:gap size.
-an Place the files not accessed in n days after the free blocks of the destination file system If no n is specified then no movement occurs.
-d Leave order of directory entries as is. The
default is to move sub-directories to the begin-
ning of directories.
-v Reports how many files were processed and how big the source and destination freelists are.
-f fsize[:isize]
Specify the outputfs file system (fsize) and inode list (isize) sizes in logical blocks. If the suboption (or :isize) is not given, the values from inputfs are used. dcopy catches interrupts and quits and reports on its progress. To terminate dcopy, send a quit signal followed by an interrupt or quit.
NOTES
fsck should be run on the new file system created by dcopy before it is mounted.
