NAME
mkfsudfs - construct a udfs file system
SYNOPSIS
mkfs -F udfs [genericoptions] [-o specificoptions] rawdevicefile
[size]
DESCRIPTION
This is the universal disk format file system (udfs)
-specific module of the mkfs command. mkfs constructs a udfs
file system with a root directory.
OPTIONS
See mkfs(1M) for the list of supported genericoptions.
The following options are supported:
-o specificoptions Specify a udfs-specific option.
Specify udfs file system specific
options in a comma-separated list
with no intervening spaces. If
invalid options are specified, a
warning message is printed and the
invalid options are ignored.
The following specificoptions are
available:
N Print the file system
parameters without
actually creating the
file system.
label=string Specify the label to
be written into the
volume header struc-
tures. Specify string
as the name of the
label. If string is
not specified, a
default string is
generated in the form
of *NoLabel*.

DIAGNOSTICS
not currently a valid file system
The specified device does not contain a valid udfs file sys-
tem.
Invalid size: larger than the partition size
Number of blocks given as parameter to create the file sys-
tem is larger than the size of the device specified.
is mounted can't mkfs

Negative size parameter provided is invalid.
sector size must be between 512, 8192 bytes
Sector size given is not in the valid range.
Volume integrity sequence descriptors too long
File set descriptor too long.
Not enough space to create volume integrity sequence or file
set descriptor.
mkfs: argument out of range
One of the arguments is out of range.
mkfs: bad numeric arg

NOTES
You can use lofiadm to create a file that appears to a mkfs
command (for example, mkfspcfs or mkfsufs) as a raw dev-
ice. You can then use a mkfs command to create a file system
on that device. See lofiadm(1M) for examples of creating a
UFS and a PC (FAT) file system on a device created by
lofiadm.
