DUMPE2FS(8)                          System Manager's Manual                          DUMPE2FS(8)

NAME
       dumpe2fs - dump ext2/ext3/ext4 file system information

SYNOPSIS
       dumpe2fs [ -bfghixV ] [ -o superblock=superblock ] [ -o blocksize=blocksize ] device

DESCRIPTION
       dumpe2fs  prints  the super block and blocks group information for the file system present
       on device.

       Note: When used with a mounted file system, the printed information may be old  or  incon-
       sistent.

OPTIONS
       -b     print the blocks which are reserved as bad in the file system.

       -o superblock=superblock
              use  the  block superblock when examining the file system.  This option is not usu-
              ally needed except by a file system wizard who is examining the remains of  a  very
              badly corrupted file system.

       -o blocksize=blocksize
              use  blocks  of blocksize bytes when examining the file system.  This option is not
              usually needed except by a file system wizard who is examining  the  remains  of  a
              very badly corrupted file system.

       -f     force  dumpe2fs  to  display a file system even though it may have some file system
              feature flags which dumpe2fs may not  understand  (and  which  can  cause  some  of
              dumpe2fs's display to be suspect).

       -g     display  the  group  descriptor  information  in a machine readable colon-separated
              value format.  The fields displayed are the group number; the number of  the  first
              block  in  the  group; the superblock location (or -1 if not present); the range of
              blocks used by the group descriptors (or -1 if not present); the block bitmap loca-
              tion; the inode bitmap location; and the range of blocks used by the inode table.

       -h     only  display  the superblock information and not any of the block group descriptor
              detail information.

       -i     display the file system data from an image file created by e2image, using device as
              the pathname to the image file.

       -m     If  the mmp feature is enabled on the file system, check if device is in use by an-
              other node, see e2mmpstatus(8) for full details.  If used together with the -i  op-
              tion, only the MMP block information is printed.

       -x     print the detailed group information block numbers in hexadecimal format

       -V     print the version number of dumpe2fs and exit.

EXIT CODE
       dumpe2fs exits with a return code of 0 if the operation completed without errors.  It will
       exit with a non-zero return code if there are any errors, such as problems reading a valid
       superblock, bad checksums, or if the device is in use by another node and -m is specified.

BUGS
       You may need to know the physical file system structure to understand the output.
