NAME
       vxlsino - VxFS reverse path name lookup utility

SYNOPSIS
       /opt/VRTS/bin/vxlsino [ -a ] inode_number mount_point

AVAILABILITY
       VRTSvxfs

DESCRIPTION
       The  vxlsino  command searches for and displays one path name of a file
       or directory with the specified inode number.   If  the	-a  option  is
       specified,  all	path  names  of a file or directory with the specified
       inode number are displayed.

       inode_number is the inode for which to find the path name.

       mount_point specifies the mounted VxFS file system.

NOTES
       vxlsino operates only on file systems using the	Version	 6  or	higher
       disk layout.

       Reverse path name lookup does not track symbolic links to files.

       vxlsino	uses  the  vxfs_inotopath API to obtain the path name (see the
       vxfs_inotopath(3) manual page).

Cluster File System Issues
       No cluster issues; command operates the same on cluster file systems.

OPTIONS
       -a	 Displays all the path names of the specified inode number.

EXAMPLES
       The following is an example of the reverse name lookup procedure on the
       file system /mnt1.  List the contents of the directory:

	    $ ls -liR /mnt1
	    /mnt1:
	    total 0
	       417 drwxrwxrwx	2 root	other  2048 Aug 24 17:02 dir1
	       140 -rw-rw-rw-	1 root	other	 12 Aug 24 17:02 file1
		 3 drwxr-xr-x	2 root	root	 96 Aug 24 17:02 lost+found
		80 -rw-rw-rw-	1 root	other	  0 Aug 25 10:54 file3

	    /mnt1/dir1:
	    total 0
		480 -rw-rw-rw-	1 root	other	  0 Aug 24 17:02 file2

       To determine the single path name of inode number 140, enter:

	    $ vxlsino 140 /mnt1
	    /mnt1/file1

       Create hard links to the file file3:

	    $ cd dir1
	    $ ln ../file3 file4
	    $ ln ../file3 file5
	    $ ls -li ../file3
	    80 -rw-rw-rw- 3 root  other	 0 Aug 25 10:54 ../file3

       To determine the single path name of inode number 80, enter:

	    $ vxlsino 80 /mnt1
	    /mnt1/file3

       To determine all the path names of inode number 80, enter:

	    $ vxlsino -a 80 /mnt1
	    /mnt1/file3
	    /mnt1/dir1/file4
	    /mnt1/dir1/file5

       When  an inode number corresponds to a VxFS named data stream, the file
       name is preceded by a dot (.).  For example, if inode number 100 corre‐
       sponds  to the named data stream attributes of the file file2, the com‐
       mand displays the following output:

	    $ vxlsino 100 /mnt1
	    /mnt1/file2/./attributes
