ufs or hfs in bdf

[mobidyc]

Hello,

i don't understand why bdf (and bdf) shows me the same filesystem when i ask it for fstype ufs or hfs.
when i cat /etc/mnttab i've no ufs filesystem mounted.

someone can explains this strange behavior ?:
# bdf -t hfs
Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
/dev/vg00/lvol1 196656 84824 92160 48% /stand

# bdf -t ufs
Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
/dev/vg00/lvol1 196656 84824 92160 48% /stand

i've the same informations with df.
problem reproductible on all 11.* HP-UX version.

My guess would be some old equivelance. HP never really had ufs, did they, always been hfs.

In HPUX 11.11 only /stand is HFS, all others default to vxfs as HFS is being obsoleted.

Not sure why it is a worry.

Shalom,

Give it a path

cd /path
bdf .

or

bdf /fileystemnaem

That is because the HFS filesystem is synonymous with UFS ie they are one and the same. Check out the thread below and see the posts by Bill Hassell and morganelan:
