fsirand - install random inode generation numbers
SYNOPSIS
fsirand
[
-p
]
special
DESCRIPTION
fsirand
installs random inode generation numbers on all the inodes on device
special,
and also installs a filesystem
ID
in the superblock.
This helps increase the security of filesystems exported by
NFS.
fsirand
must be used only on an unmounted filesystem
that has been checked with
fsck.8
The only exception is that it can be used
on the root filesystem in single-user mode,
if the system is immediately re-booted afterwords.
OPTIONS
- -p
-
Print out the generation numbers for all the inodes,
but do not change the generation numbers.
