help | |
FreeVxFS is a file system driver that support the VERITAS VxFS(TM) | |
file system format. VERITAS VxFS(TM) is the standard file system | |
of SCO UnixWare (and possibly others) and optionally available | |
for Sunsoft Solaris, HP-UX and many other operating systems. However | |
these particular OS implementations of vxfs may differ in on-disk | |
data endianess and/or superblock offset. The vxfs module has been | |
tested with SCO UnixWare and HP-UX B.10.20 (pa-risc 1.1 arch.) | |
Currently only readonly access is supported and VxFX versions | |
2, 3 and 4. Tests were performed with HP-UX VxFS version 3. | |
NOTE: the file system type as used by mount(1), mount(2) and | |
fstab(5) is 'vxfs' as it describes the file system format, not | |
the actual driver. | |
There is a userspace utility for HP-UX logical volumes which makes | |
creating HP-UX logical volumes easy from HP-UX disk block device file | |
or regular file with image of the disk. See: | |
https://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-vxfs/ | |
To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be | |
called freevxfs. If unsure, say N. |
