Short: Determine filesystem used by volumes in system
Author: bsimpson@mcs.dundee.ac.uk (Bruce M. Simpson)
Uploader: bsimpson@mcs.dundee.ac.uk (Bruce M. Simpson)
Type: disk/misc
This utility is a small, pure, CLI-only replacement for an old utility
called FsInfo. DiskType is 20% of the size of FsInfo, and doesn't try to be
an Info clone. It just tells you what you want to know - if a disk is DCFS,
FFS or OFS. Mainly localized - it uses DOS for strings. Much less memory
intensive than FsInfo, which tries to Lock() on every handler in the system,
consuming up to 50K on a normal WB setup which you then need to Flush...
DiskType is completely safe - it makes its own private copy of the volume
list, so it doesn't cause any deadlocks.
