volcopy(1M)


volcopy (generic) -- make literal copy of filesystem

Synopsis

volcopy [-F FSType] [-V] [current_options]
[-o specific_options] operands

Description

volcopy makes a literal copy of the filesystem.

current_options are options supported by the s5-specific module of volcopy. Other FSTypes do not necessarily support these options. specific_options indicate suboptions specified in a comma-separated list of suboptions and/or keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation by the FSType-specific module of the command.

operands generally include the device and volume names and are filesystem specific. A detailed description of the operands can be found on the FSType-specific man pages of volcopy.

Command options

-F
Specify the FSType on which to operate. The FSType should either be specified here or be determinable from \/etc\/vfstab by matching the operands with an entry in the table.

-V
Echo the complete command line, but do not execute the command. The command line is generated by using the options and arguments provided by the user and adding to them information derived from /etc/vfstab. This option should be used to verify and validate the command line.

-o
Specify FSType-specific options.

Files

/etc/vfstab
list of default parameters for each filesystem
