monitored-fsck 1 user commands nosh monitored-fsck run fsck linked to an external progress monitor monitored-fsck args monitored-fsck is a chain-loading utility that arranges to run fsck8 linked to an external progress monitoring service. It chain loads to fsck8 with the execvp3 function passing args through unchanged. The monitoring capability depends from the abilities of the fsck8 program. On the BSDs, it has no monitoring plug-in mechanism. On Linux, the monitoring is done by opening a client stream to the /run/fsck.progress local domain socket and passing the -Cfd command line option to fsck where fd is the number of the open file descriptor for that client.
