rmcp - Man Page

rmcp [options] [device] checkpoint-range ...

rmcp is a utility for removing checkpoints from the NILFS2 file system found in device.  The checkpoints which user wants to remove are specified with one or more checkpoint-ranges.  When device is omitted, rmcp tries to find a NILFS2 file system from /proc/mounts.

The checkpoint-range must be provided with one or two integers in one of the following way:

cno

single checkpoint number

start..end

every checkpoint number between start and end

..end

every checkpoint number equal or younger than end

start..

every checkpoint number equal or greater than start

This command is valid only for mounted NILFS2 file systems, and will fail if the device has no active mounts.

-f,  --force

Ignore snapshots or nonexistent checkpoints.

-i,  --interactive

Prompt before any removal.

-h,  --help

Display help message and exit.

-V,  --version

Display version and exit.
