How do you fsck a specific disk ?
command ?

Hi

To verify filesystem integrity perform a
full fsck (without log replay) but with the
"-n" option.

# fsck -F vxfs -n /dev/vgxx/rlovlyy

/usr/sbin/fsck [-F FSType] [-m] [-V] [special ...]

where special is the disks' physical path. i.e. /dev/rdsk/c1d0s8

Hi Bob,

fsck is for filesystem checking, not for disks. You can fsck each of the filesystems on a disk but with LVM they may span other disks as well.

You fsck against the logical volume the filesystem is mounted on and the filesystem should be unmounted.

Look for diskspecification with:
$> ioscan -fnCdisk
then fsck for example like:
$> fsck -m /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0
and read fsck...

.. or are there some problems?
