DESCRIPTION

       The  commands  listed  in the SYNOPSIS can operate on different types of file systems.  Each command (except for reads file system specific
       configuration files that control the command's behavior, and invokes a file system specific binary file to do the actual work.	FStype	is
       the  file system type as optionally specified on the command line.  If FStype is not given, then the file system type is determined from by
       matching an entry in this file with a device provided with the command (see individual commands for details of usage).

       Administrators may also define a default file system type for the above commands via the file If this file exists, and contains the line:

       (e.g., then the above commands will assume the FStype given in unless an FStype is provided on the command line or is in The  default  file
       system specification is provided to maintain compatibility with pre-10.0 invocations of the commands.

       See the FILES section for a list of the files used.

WARNINGS

       The  configuration  files  are  supplied  by HP or by other file system vendors.  They are not meant to be edited by System Administrators.
       Corruption or removal of these files may lead to strange behavior, including the inability to boot.

       The format of the configuration file is subject to change.

       The file system specific binary files are not normally executed directly.  However, if the configuration files become unusable, direct exe-
       cution of these binary files may be a useful step in repairing and running the system again.  The binary files accept the same arguments as
       the commands by which they are executed.

       The command is a special case.  This command currently does not read a configuration file, and does not	execute  a  file  system  specific
       binary  file  if FStype is or The binary that handles these FStypes also processes other FStypes and calls the file system specific command
       if appropriate.

       For historical reasons, the binary files also handle and so there are no separate binary files for the latter two file systems.

       The commands (except will not work if they are renamed, because they are symbolically linked to a single executable

NAME

       mkfs - construct a file system (generic)

SYNOPSIS

       FStype] specific_options] special
	      [operands]

       FStype] special

DESCRIPTION

       The  command  creates  a file system by writing on the special file special.  operands are listed on file-system-specific manpages (see the
       section).

   Options
       recognizes the following options:

	      Specify the file system type on which to operate (see
			     fstyp(1M) and fs_wrapper(5)).  If this option is not included on the command line,  then  the  file  system  type	is
			     determined  from the file by matching special with an entry in that file.	If there is no entry in then the file sys-
			     tem type is determined from the file

	      Display the command line that was used to create the file system.
			     The file system must already exist.  This option provides a means of determining the parameters used to construct the
			     file system.

	      Specify options specific to the file system type.
			     specific_options is a list of suboptions and/or keyword/attribute pairs intended for an FStype-specific module of the
			     command.  See the file system specific manual entries for a description of the specific_options that  are	supported,
			     if any.

	      Echo the completed command line, but perform no other action.
			     The  command  line  is  generated by incorporating the specified options and arguments with other information derived
			     from This option allows the user to verify the command line.
