NAME

Sys::Filesystem::Aix - Return AIX filesystem information to Sys::Filesystem

SYNOPSIS

See Sys::Filesystem.

INHERITANCE

  Sys::Filesystem::Aix
  ISA UNIVERSAL

METHODS

version ()

Return the version of the (sub)module.

ATTRIBUTES

The following is a list of filesystem properties which may be queried as methods through the parent Sys::Filesystem object.

account

Used by the dodisk command to determine the filesystems to be processed by the accounting system.

boot

Used by the mkfs command to initialize the boot block of a new filesystem.

check

Used by the fsck command to determine the default filesystems to be checked.

dev

Identifies, for local mounts, either the block special file where the filesystem resides or the file or directory to be mounted.

free

This value can be either true or false. (Obsolete and ignored).

mount

Used by the mount command to determine whether this file system should be mounted by default.

nodename

Used by the mount command to determine which node contains the remote filesystem.

size

Used by the mkfs command for reference and to build the file system.

type

Used to group related mounts.

vfs

Specifies the type of mount. For example, vfs=nfs specifies the virtual filesystem being mounted is an NFS filesystem.

vol

Used by the mkfs command when initializing the label on a new filesystem. The value is a volume or pack label using a maximum of 6 characters.

log

The LVName must be the full path name of the filesystem logging logical volume name to which log data is written as this file system is modified. This is only valid for journaled filesystems.
