94 utility displays information about a ZFS pool useful for debugging and performs
95 some amount of consistency checking.
96 It is a not a general purpose tool and options
103 The output of this command in general reflects the on-disk structure of a ZFS
104 pool, and is inherently unstable.
105 The precise output of most invocations is not documented, a knowledge of ZFS
106 internals is assumed.
110 argument does not contain any
114 characters, it is interpreted as a pool name.
115 The root dataset can be specified as
121 tool; it accesses the block devices underneath the pools directly from
122 userspace and does not care if the pool is imported or datasets are mounted
123 (or even if the system understands ZFS at all).
124 When operating on an imported and active pool it is possible, though unlikely,
125 that zdb may interpret inconsistent pool data and behave erratically.
130 .It Fl b , -block-stats
131 Display statistics regarding the number, size
132 .Pq logical, physical and allocated
133 and deduplication of blocks.
135 Generate a backup stream, similar to
137 but for the numeric objset ID, and without opening the dataset.
138 This can be useful in recovery scenarios if dataset metadata has become
139 corrupted but the dataset itself is readable.
142 argument is a string of one or more of the letters
148 which correspond to the same flags in
151 Verify the checksum of all metadata blocks while printing block statistics
156 If specified multiple times, verify the checksums of all blocks.
158 Display information about the configuration.
159 If specified with no other options, instead display information about the cache
161 .Pq Pa /etc/zfs/zpool.cache .
162 To specify the cache file to display, see

166 cached configuration and the on-disk configuration.

172 Specified once, displays basic dataset information: ID, create transaction,
173 size, and object count.
177 .Ar poolname Ns Op / Ns Ar dataset Ns | Ns Ar objset-ID
178 is to use the specified
179 .Ar dataset Ns | Ns Ar objset-ID
180 as a string (dataset name) or a number (objset ID) when
181 datasets have numeric names.
183 If specified multiple times provides greater and greater verbosity.
185 If object IDs or object ID ranges are specified, display information about
186 those specific objects or ranges only.
188 An object ID range is specified in terms of a colon-separated tuple of
190 .Ao start Ac : Ns Ao end Ac Ns Op : Ns Ao flags Ac .

199 value of -1 specifies a range with no upper bound.
202 field optionally specifies a set of flags, described below, that control
203 which object types are dumped.
204 By default, all object types are dumped.

430 flag specifies the path under which devices are to be searched.
431 .It Fl x , -dump-blocks Ns = Ns Ar dumpdir
432 All blocks accessed will be copied to files in the specified directory.
433 The blocks will be placed in sparse files whose name is the same as

507 but read transactions otherwise deemed too old.
508 .It Fl Y , -all-reconstruction
509 Attempt all possible combinations when reconstructing indirect split blocks.
510 This flag disables the individual I/O deadman timer in order to allow as
511 much time as required for the attempted reconstruction.
513 Perform validation for livelists that are being deleted.
514 Scans through the livelist and metaslabs, checking for duplicate entries
515 and compares the two, checking for potential double frees.
516 If it encounters issues, warnings will be printed, but the command will not
520 Specifying a display option more than once enables verbosity for only that
521 option, with more occurrences enabling more verbosity.
523 If no options are specified, all information about the named pool will be
524 displayed at default verbosity.
