NAME
|
||||
thin_repair - repair thin provisioning binary metadata.
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS
|
||||
thin_repair [options] -i {device|file} -o {device|file}
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
thin_repair reads binary thin provisioning metadata created by the respective
|
||||
device-mapper target from one device or file, repairs it and writes it
|
||||
to different device or file. If written to a metadata device, the metadata
|
||||
can be processed by the device-mapper target.
|
||||
|
||||
This tool cannot be run on live metadata.
|
||||
|
||||
OPTIONS
|
||||
-h, --help Print help and exit.
|
||||
-V, --version Print version information and exit.
|
||||
-i, --input {device|file} Input file or device with binary data.
|
||||
-o, --output {device|file} Output file or device for binary data.
|
||||
|
||||
If a file is used for output, then it must be preallocated, and large
|
||||
enough to hold the metadata.
|
||||
|
||||
EXAMPLE
|
||||
|
||||
Reads the binary thin provisioning metadata from file metadata, repairs
|
||||
it and writes it to logical volume /dev/vg/metadata for further processing by
|
||||
the respective device-mapper target:
|
||||
|
||||
$ thin_repair -i metadata -o /dev/vg/metadata
|
||||
|
||||
DIAGNOSTICS
|
||||
thin_repair returns an exit code of 0 for success or 1 for error.
