38.Nd construct a new HAMMER2 file system
39.Sh SYNOPSIS
40.Nm

42.Op Fl f
43.Op Fl b Ar bootsize
44.Op Fl r Ar redosize
45.Op Fl V Ar version
46.Ar special ...
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48The
49.Nm
50utility creates a
51.Nm HAMMER2
52file system on device(s)
53.Ar special .
54If multiple devices are specified a single
55.Nm HAMMER2
56file system is created
57which spans all of them.
58Each
59.Ar special
60will constitute a volume which the
61.Nm HAMMER2
62file system is built on.
63.Nm HAMMER2
64file systems are sector-size agnostic, however the
65.Dx
66implementation requires the sector size to be no larger than 16K.
67.Nm HAMMER2
68file systems start at a relative offset of 0 and may only be created
69under out-of-band disk labels
70.Po
71.Xr disklabel64 5
72or
73.Xr gpt 8
74labels
75.Pc ,
76or in
77.Xr disklabel32 5
78partitions which do not overlap the label area (have a starting sector
79greater than 16).
80.Pp
81.Nm HAMMER2
82file systems are designed for large storage systems, up to 1 Exabyte, and
83will not operate efficiently on small storage systems.
84The minimum recommended file system size is 50GB.
85.Nm HAMMER2
86must reserve 500MB to 1GB of its storage for reblocking and UNDO/REDO.
87In addition,
88.Nm HAMMER2
89file systems operating normally, with full history
90retention and daily snapshots, do not immediately reclaim space when
91files are deleted.
92A regular system maintenance job runs once a day by
93.Xr periodic 8
94to handle reclamation.
95.Pp
96.Nm HAMMER2
97works best when the machine's normal workload would not otherwise fill
98the file system up in the course of 60 days of operation.
99.Pp
100The options are as follows:
101.Bl -tag -width indent
102.It Fl L Ar label
103All
104.Nm HAMMER2
105file systems must be named and names should be unique on a
106per-machine basis.
107.It Fl b Ar bootsize
108Specify a fixed area in which a boot related kernel and data can be stored.
109The
110.Ar bootsize
111is specified in bytes.
112By default a boot area of approximately 4MB will be created.
113.It Fl f
114Force operation.
115This is needed for the creation of a
116.Nm HAMMER2
117file system less than 10GB size or
118with less than 500MB UNDO/REDO FIFO.
119This should not be used under normal circumstances.
120.It Fl r Ar redosize
121Specify the size of the fixed REDO FIFO.
122The
123.Ar redosize
124is specified in bytes.
125By default 0.1% of the root
126volume's size is used, with a reasonable minimum and a reasonable cap.
127The UNDO/REDO FIFO is used to sequence meta-data out to the media for
128instant crash recovery.
129.It Fl V Ar version
130Specify the
131.Nm HAMMER2
132file system version to format.
133By default
134.Nm
135formats the file system using the highest production version number
136supported by the
137.Nm HAMMER2
138VFS by checking the
139.Va vfs.hammer2.supported_version
140sysctl.
141If you need to maintain compatibility with an older version of
142.Nm HAMMER2
143you may specify the version with this option.
144.El
145.Pp
146The
147.Ar bootsize
148and
149.Ar redosize
150must be given with a suffix of
151.Cm K , M , G
152or
153.Cm T
154meaning kilobyte, megabyte, gigabyte and terabyte.
155Lower case can also be used for suffix.
156.Sh EXAMPLES
157.Bd -literal -offset indent

164.Pa /dev/ad0s1d .
165.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
166Exit status is 0 on success and 1 on error.
