     vsdbutil manipulates the volume status DB.  The following options are available:

     -a       adopts (activates) on-disk ownership on the specified path

     -c       checks the status of the ownership usage on the specified path

     -d       disowns (deactivates) the on-disk ownership on the specified path

     -i       initializes the ownership database to include all mounted HFS+ and APFS volumes

     -h       prints out a simple help message

     The vsdbutil command is deprecated; using a volume UUID in fstab(5) is preferred.
