.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
\fBfilerepair\fR deals with broken files (those which cause I/O errors on read operations) to make them partially readable\&. In case of missing chunk it fills missing parts of file with zeros; in case of chunk version mismatch it sets chunk version known to \fBmfsmaster\fR to highest one found on chunkservers\&.

Because in the second case content mismatch can occur in chunks with the same version, it\(cqs advised to make a copy (not a snapshot!) and delete original file after "repairing"\&.
