.SH DESCRIPTION
.BI tune2fs
adjusts tunable filesystem parameters on a Linux second extended filesystem.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BI \-c " max-mount-counts"
adjust the maximal mounts count between two filesystem checks.
.TP
.BI \-e " error-behavior"
change the behavior of the kernel code when errors are detected.
.I error-behavior
can be one of the following:
.br
\ continue\ \ Continue normal execution.
.br
\ remount-ro\ Remount filesystem read-only.
.br
\ panic\ \ Cause a kernel panic.
.TP
.BI \-g " group"
set the user group which can benefit from the reserved blocks.
.br
.I group
can be a numerical gid or a group name.
.TP
.BI \-i " interval-between-checks\fR[\fBd\fR|\fBm\fR|\fBw\fR]"
adjust the maximal time between two filesystem checks.
No postfix or
.B d
result in days,
.B m
in months, and
.B w
in weeks. A value of zero will disable the timedependent checking.
.TP
.B \-l
list the contents of the filesystem superblock.
.TP
.BI \-m " reserved-blocks-percentage"
adjust the reserved blocks percentage on the given device.
.TP
.BI \-r " reserved-blocks-count"
adjust the reserved blocks count on the given device.
.TP
.BI \-s " sparse_super_flag"
set or reset the sparse_superblock flag. The sparse_superblock feature
saves space on really big filesystems.
.B Warning:
The Linux 2.0 kernel does not properly support this feature. Neither do
all Linux 2.1 kernels; please don't use this unless you know what you're
doing!
.TP
.BI \-u " user"
set the user who can benefit from the reserved blocks.
.I user
can be a numerical uid or a user name.
.TP
.BI \-C " mount-count"
set the number of times the filesystem has been mounted.
.TP
.BI \-L " volume-label"
set the volume label of the filesystem.
Ext2 filesystem labels can be at most 16 characters long; if
.I volume-label
is longer than 16 characters,
.B tune2fs
will truncate it and print a warning message.
.TP
.BI \-M " last-mounted-directory"
set the last-mounted directory for the filesystem.
.TP
.BI \-O " \fR[^]\fIfeature\fR[,...]"
set or clear the indicated filesystem features (options) in the filesystem.
.I Feature
can be one of the following supported filesystem options:
.IR sparse_super ,
which cause the filesystem to use sparse superblocks, and
.IR filetype ,
which will cause the filesystem to store file type information in
directory entries. After setting or clearing either filesystem feature,
e2fsck must be run on the filesystem.
.TP
.BI \-U " UUID"
set the UUID of the filesystem. A sample UUID looks like this:
"c1b9d5a2-f162-11cf-9ece-0020afc76f16". The uuid may also be
.IR null ,
which will set the filesystem UUID to the null UUID. The uuid may also be
.IR random ,
which will generate a new random UUID for the filesystem.
.SH BUGS
We haven't found any bugs yet. Perhaps there are bugs but it's unlikely.
.SH WARNING
Never use tune2fs to change parameters of a read/write mounted filesystem!
.B Use this utility
.B at your own risk.
You're modifying a filesystem!
