rfstat

RFSTAT(1)							Rfio User Commands							 RFSTAT(1)

NAME

       rfstat - get information about a file or directory

SYNOPSIS

       rfstat directory
       rfstat filename

DESCRIPTION

       The  rfstat  program  provides an interface to the shift remote file I/O daemon (rfiod) for getting information about a remote directory or
       file.  The filename or directory argument is either a remote file name of the form:

	      hostname:path

       or a local file name (not containing the :/ character combination).  The output from the rfstat command gives information similar  to  that
       of the ls -il command for listing local files or directories, one field per line.

EXAMPLE

       rfstat /tmp

       Device	       : 802
       Inode number    : 2
       Nb blocks       : 16
       Protection      : drwxrwxrwt (41777)
       Hard Links      : 13
       Uid	       : 0 (root)
       Gid	       : 0 (root)
       Size (bytes)    : 4096
       Last access     : Wed Jun 15 07:18:10 2011
       Last modify     : Wed Jun 15 07:18:10 2011
       Last stat. mod. : Wed Jun 15 07:18:10 2011

       rfio_stat(3), rfiod(1)

NOTES

       rfstat does not support regular expressions (regexp(5)) in the directory or filename argument.
