.SH NAME
FORCESALVAGE \- Forces salvage of entire partition
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The \fIFORCESALVAGE\fR file, if present on an AFS server partition (that is,
in a \fI/vicep\fR directory), signals that the Salvager must salvage the
entire partition. The AFS-modified version of the \fBfsck\fR program creates
the empty (zero-length) file when it discovers corruption on the
partition. The Salvager removes the file when it completes the salvage
operation.
.PP
When the File Server detects the presence of the file on a partition on
which it is attaching volumes, it stops, detaches any volumes that are
already attached, and exits after recording a message in the
\&\fI/var/log/openafs/FileLog\fR file. The Bos Server then invokes the Salvager to
salvage the partition.
