<P>Forces salvage of entire partition
<P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
<P>The <B>FORCESALVAGE</B> file, if present on an AFS server partition
(that is, in a <B>/vicep</B> directory), signals that the Salvager must
salvage the entire partition. The AFS-modified version of the
<B>fsck</B> program creates the empty (zero-length) file when it discovers
corruption on the partition. The Salvager removes the file when it
completes the salvage operation.
<P>When the File Server detects the presence of the file on a partition on
which it is attaching volumes, it stops, detaches any volumes that are already
attached, and exits after recording a message in the
<B>/usr/afs/logs/FileLog</B> file. The Bos Server then invokes the
Salvager to salvage the partition.
