NAME
       vbmtpg - displays a formatted page of the BMT

SYNOPSIS
       /sbin/advfs/vbmtpg special [page_LBN]

OPERANDS
       Specifies the volume on which the page is located.  Specifies the logical block number (LBN) of the requested page; the default is 32 which
       is page zero of the bitfile metadata table (BMT).

DESCRIPTION
       The vbmtpg utility displays a complete, formatted page of the BMT for a mounted or unmounted domain. This  is  useful  for  debugging  when
       there has been some seemingly random file corruption.

       Note that the vbmtchain command displays all the mcells associated with a given file whereas the vbmtpg command displays a page of informa-
       tion. This page may contain information for more than one file and may not provide complete information on any file.

RESTRICTIONS
       You must have root user privileges to access this command.

EXAMPLES
       The following example displays page zero of the BMT on dsk3h: # vbmtpg /dev/rdisk/dsk3h
