NAME

growfs – start up script to grow the root file-system

CONTENTS

DESCRIPTION

The following options in /etc/rc.conf control the behavior of growfs:
growfs_enable
  ("NO") If set to "YES", the first time the machine boots, the root file-system will be automatically expanded, if possible, to fill up all available space after it.

To expand the root file-system with-out rebooting, run the following command:

    % /etc/rc.d/growfs onestart

IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

The script requires that awk be present and on the path. This usually means that /usr should be mounted prior to running the script.

FILES

/etc/rc.conf

EXIT STATUS

The utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

SEE ALSO

rc.conf(5)

AUTHORS

The man page and script were written by John-Mark Gurney <Mt jmg@FreeBSD.org>.
