It is a not a general purpose tool and options .Pq and facilities may change. It is not a .Xr fsck 8 utility. .Pp The output of this command in general reflects the on-disk structure of a ZFS pool, and is inherently unstable. The precise output of most invocations is not documented, a knowledge of ZFS internals is assumed. .Pp If the .Ar dataset argument does not contain any .Qq Sy / or .Qq Sy @ characters, it is interpreted as a pool name. The root dataset can be specified as .Qq Ar pool Ns / . .Pp .Nm is an .Qq offline tool; it accesses the block devices underneath the pools directly from userspace and does not care if the pool is imported or datasets are mounted (or even if the system understands ZFS at all). When operating on an imported and active pool it is possible, though unlikely, that zdb may interpret inconsistent pool data and behave erratically. . .Sh OPTIONS Display options: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Fl b , -block-stats Display statistics regarding the number, size .Pq logical, physical and allocated and deduplication of blocks. .It Fl c , -checksum Verify the checksum of all metadata blocks while printing block statistics .Po see .Fl b .Pc . .Pp If specified multiple times, verify the checksums of all blocks. .It Fl C , -config Display information about the configuration. If specified with no other options, instead display information about the cache file .Pq Pa /etc/zfs/zpool.cache . To specify the cache file to display, see .Fl U . .Pp If specified multiple times, and a pool name is also specified display both the cached configuration and the on-disk configuration. If specified multiple times with .Fl e also display the configuration that would be used were the pool to be imported. .It Fl d , -datasets Display information about datasets. Specified once, displays basic dataset information: ID, create transaction, size, and object count. See .Fl N for determining if .Ar poolname Ns Op / Ns Ar dataset Ns | Ns Ar objset-ID is to use the specified .Ar dataset Ns | Ns Ar objset-ID as a string (dataset name) or a number (objset ID) when datasets have numeric names. .Pp If specified multiple times provides greater and greater verbosity. .Pp If object IDs or object ID ranges are specified, display information about those specific objects or ranges only. .Pp An object ID range is specified in terms of a colon-separated tuple of the form .Ao start Ac : Ns Ao end Ac Ns Op : Ns Ao flags Ac . The fields .Ar start and .Ar end are integer object identifiers that denote the upper and lower bounds of the range. An .Ar end value of -1 specifies a range with no upper bound. The .Ar flags field optionally specifies a set of flags, described below, that control which object types are dumped. By default, all object types are dumped. A minus sign .Pq - negates the effect of the flag that follows it and has no effect unless preceded by the .Ar A flag. For example, the range 0:-1:A-d will dump all object types except for directories. .Pp .Bl -tag -compact -width Ds .It Sy A Dump all objects (this is the default) .It Sy d Dump ZFS directory objects .It Sy f Dump ZFS plain file objects .It Sy m Dump SPA space map objects .It Sy z Dump ZAP objects .It Sy - Negate the effect of next flag .El .It Fl D , -dedup-stats Display deduplication statistics, including the deduplication ratio .Pq Sy dedup , compression ratio .Pq Sy compress , inflation due to the zfs copies property .Pq Sy copies , and an overall effective ratio .Pq Sy dedup No \(mu Sy compress No / Sy copies . .It Fl DD Display a histogram of deduplication statistics, showing the allocated .Pq physically present on disk and referenced .Pq logically referenced in the pool block counts and sizes by reference count. .It Fl DDD Display the statistics independently for each deduplication table. .It Fl DDDD Dump the contents of the deduplication tables describing duplicate blocks. .It Fl DDDDD Also dump the contents of the deduplication tables describing unique blocks. .It Fl E , -embedded-block-pointer Ns = Ns Ar word0 : Ns Ar word1 Ns :…: Ns Ar word15 Decode and display block from an embedded block pointer specified by the .Ar word arguments. .It Fl h , -history Display pool history similar to .Nm zpool Cm history , but include internal changes, transaction, and dataset information. .It Fl i , -intent-logs Display information about intent log .Pq ZIL entries relating to each dataset. If specified multiple times, display counts of each intent log transaction type. .It Fl k , -checkpointed-state Examine the checkpointed state of the pool. Note, the on disk format of the pool is not reverted to the checkpointed state. .It Fl l , -label Ns = Ns Ar device Read the vdev labels and L2ARC header from the specified device. .Nm Fl l will return 0 if valid label was found, 1 if error occurred, and 2 if no valid labels were found. The presence of L2ARC header is indicated by a specific sequence (L2ARC_DEV_HDR_MAGIC). If there is an accounting error in the size or the number of L2ARC log blocks .Nm Fl l will return 1. Each unique configuration is displayed only once. .It Fl ll Ar device In addition display label space usage stats. If a valid L2ARC header was found also display the properties of log blocks used for restoring L2ARC contents (persistent L2ARC). .It Fl lll Ar device Display every configuration, unique or not. If a valid L2ARC header was found also display the properties of log entries in log blocks used for restoring L2ARC contents (persistent L2ARC). .Pp If the .Fl q option is also specified, don't print the labels or the L2ARC header. .Pp If the .Fl u option is also specified, also display the uberblocks on this device. Specify multiple times to increase verbosity. .It Fl L , -disable-leak-tracking Disable leak detection and the loading of space maps. By default, .Nm verifies that all non-free blocks are referenced, which can be very expensive. .It Fl m , -metaslabs Display the offset, spacemap, free space of each metaslab, all the log spacemaps and their obsolete entry statistics. .It Fl mm Also display information about the on-disk free space histogram associated with each metaslab. .It Fl mmm Display the maximum contiguous free space, the in-core free space histogram, and the percentage of free space in each space map. .It Fl mmmm Display every spacemap record. .It Fl M , -metaslab-groups Display all "normal" vdev metaslab group information - per-vdev metaslab count, fragmentation, and free space histogram, as well as overall pool fragmentation and histogram. .It Fl MM "Special" vdevs are added to -M's normal output. .It Fl O , -object-lookups Ns = Ns Ar dataset path Also display information about the maximum contiguous free space and the percentage of free space in each space map. .It Fl MMM Display every spacemap record. .It Fl N Same as .Fl d but force zdb to interpret the .Op Ar dataset Ns | Ns Ar objset-ID in .Op Ar poolname Ns Op / Ns Ar dataset Ns | Ns Ar objset-ID as a numeric objset ID. .It Fl O Ar dataset path Look up the specified .Ar path inside of the .Ar dataset and display its metadata and indirect blocks. Specified .Ar path must be relative to the root of .Ar dataset . This option can be combined with .Fl v for increasing verbosity. .It Fl r , -copy-object Ns = Ns Ar dataset path destination Copy the specified .Ar path inside of the .Ar dataset to the specified destination. Specified .Ar path must be relative to the root of .Ar dataset . This option can be combined with .Fl v for increasing verbosity. .It Xo .Fl R , -read-block Ns = Ns Ar poolname vdev : Ns Ar offset : Ns Oo Ar lsize Ns / Oc Ns Ar psize Ns Op : Ns Ar flags .Xc Read and display a block from the specified device. By default the block is displayed as a hex dump, but see the description of the .Sy r flag, below. .Pp The block is specified in terms of a colon-separated tuple .Ar vdev .Pq an integer vdev identifier .Ar offset .Pq the offset within the vdev .Ar size .Pq the physical size, or logical size / physical size of the block to read and, optionally, .Ar flags .Pq a set of flags, described below . .Pp .Bl -tag -compact -width "b offset" .It Sy b Ar offset Print block pointer at hex offset .It Sy c Calculate and display checksums .It Sy d Decompress the block. Set environment variable .Nm ZDB_NO_ZLE to skip zle when guessing. .It Sy e Byte swap the block .It Sy g Dump gang block header .It Sy i Dump indirect block .It Sy r Dump raw uninterpreted block data .It Sy v Verbose output for guessing compression algorithm .El .It Fl s , -io-stats Report statistics on .Nm zdb I/O. Display operation counts, bandwidth, and error counts of I/O to the pool from .Nm . .It Fl S , -simulate-dedup Simulate the effects of deduplication, constructing a DDT and then display that DDT as with .Fl DD . .It Fl u , -uberblock Display the current uberblock. .El .Pp Other options: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Fl A , -ignore-assertions Do not abort should any assertion fail. .It Fl AA Enable panic recovery, certain errors which would otherwise be fatal are demoted to warnings. .It Fl AAA Do not abort if asserts fail and also enable panic recovery. .It Fl e , -exported Ns = Ns Oo Fl p Ar path Oc Ns … Operate on an exported pool, not present in .Pa /etc/zfs/zpool.cache . The .Fl p flag specifies the path under which devices are to be searched. .It Fl x , -dump-blocks Ns = Ns Ar dumpdir All blocks accessed will be copied to files in the specified directory. The blocks will be placed in sparse files whose name is the same as that of the file or device read. .Nm can be then run on the generated files. Note that the .Fl bbc flags are sufficient to access .Pq and thus copy all metadata on the pool. .It Fl F , -automatic-rewind Attempt to make an unreadable pool readable by trying progressively older transactions. .It Fl G , -dump-debug-msg Dump the contents of the zfs_dbgmsg buffer before exiting .Nm . zfs_dbgmsg is a buffer used by ZFS to dump advanced debug information. .It Fl I , -inflight Ns = Ns Ar inflight-I/O-ops Limit the number of outstanding checksum I/O operations to the specified value. The default value is 200. This option affects the performance of the .Fl c option. .It Fl K , -key Ns = Ns Ar key Decryption key needed to access an encrypted dataset. This will cause .Nm to attempt to unlock the dataset using the encryption root, key format and other encryption parameters on the given dataset. .Nm can still inspect pool and dataset structures on encrypted datasets without unlocking them, but will not be able to access file names and attributes and object contents. \fBWARNING:\fP The raw decryption key and any decrypted data will be in user memory while .Nm is running. Other user programs may be able to extract it by inspecting .Nm as it runs. Exercise extreme caution when using this option in shared or uncontrolled environments. .It Fl o , -option Ns = Ns Ar var Ns = Ns Ar value Ns … Set the given global libzpool variable to the provided value. The value must be an unsigned 32-bit integer. Currently only little-endian systems are supported to avoid accidentally setting the high 32 bits of 64-bit variables. .It Fl P , -parseable Print numbers in an unscaled form more amenable to parsing, e.g.\& .Sy 1000000 rather than .Sy 1M . .It Fl t , -txg Ns = Ns Ar transaction Specify the highest transaction to use when searching for uberblocks. See also the .Fl u and .Fl l options for a means to see the available uberblocks and their associated transaction numbers. .It Fl U , -cachefile Ns = Ns Ar cachefile Use a cache file other than .Pa /etc/zfs/zpool.cache . .It Fl v , -verbose Enable verbosity. Specify multiple times for increased verbosity. .It Fl V , -verbatim Attempt verbatim import. This mimics the behavior of the kernel when loading a pool from a cachefile. Only usable with .Fl e . .It Fl X , -extreme-rewind Attempt .Qq extreme transaction rewind, that is attempt the same recovery as .Fl F but read transactions otherwise deemed too old. .It Fl Y , -all-reconstruction Attempt all possible combinations when reconstructing indirect split blocks. This flag disables the individual I/O deadman timer in order to allow as much time as required for the attempted reconstruction. .It Fl y , -livelist Perform validation for livelists that are being deleted. Scans through the livelist and metaslabs, checking for duplicate entries and compares the two, checking for potential double frees. If it encounters issues, warnings will be printed, but the command will not necessarily fail. .El .Pp Specifying a display option more than once enables verbosity for only that option, with more occurrences enabling more verbosity. .Pp If no options are specified, all information about the named pool will be displayed at default verbosity. . .Sh EXAMPLES .Ss Example 1 : No Display the configuration of imported pool Ar rpool .Bd -literal .No # Nm zdb Fl C Ar rpool MOS Configuration: version: 28 name: 'rpool' … .Ed . .Ss Example 2 : No Display basic dataset information about Ar rpool .Bd -literal .No # Nm zdb Fl d Ar rpool Dataset mos [META], ID 0, cr_txg 4, 26.9M, 1051 objects Dataset rpool/swap [ZVOL], ID 59, cr_txg 356, 486M, 2 objects … .Ed . .Ss Example 3 : No Display basic information about object 0 in Ar rpool/export/home .Bd -literal .No # Nm zdb Fl d Ar rpool/export/home 0 Dataset rpool/export/home [ZPL], ID 137, cr_txg 1546, 32K, 8 objects Object lvl iblk dblk dsize lsize %full type 0 7 16K 16K 15.0K 16K 25.00 DMU dnode .Ed . .Ss Example 4 : No Display the predicted effect of enabling deduplication on Ar rpool .Bd -literal .No # Nm zdb Fl S Ar rpool Simulated DDT histogram: bucket allocated referenced ______ ______________________________ ______________________________ refcnt blocks LSIZE PSIZE DSIZE blocks LSIZE PSIZE DSIZE ------ ------ ----- ----- ----- ------ ----- ----- ----- 1 694K 27.1G 15.0G 15.0G 694K 27.1G 15.0G 15.0G 2 35.0K 1.33G 699M 699M 74.7K 2.79G 1.45G 1.45G … dedup = 1.11, compress = 1.80, copies = 1.00, dedup * compress / copies = 2.00 .Ed . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr zfs 8 , .Xr zpool 8
