Is fsck executed during reboot for AIX?

Dear Gurus,

I would like to know if fsck is executed automatically during reboot for AIX?
Is there any logs which I can refer to? or any documentation reference for this?

Thank You.

Checkout the fsck command reference:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infoce...cmds2/fsck.htm
It runs in a limited way on some filesystems.
If it finds a problem you will know, either because the boot will fail / hang, or because some filesystems will not be mounted.
I doubt it logs the results but the bootlog may show some results.

If /etc/filesystems has a "check=true", It will do an fsck. If not, I think it does one for the rootvg filesystems and if required on the user filesystems.
