<title>Description</title>
<para>The <replaceable>FORCESALVAGE</replaceable> file, if present on an AFS server partition (that is,
in a <replaceable>/vicep</replaceable> directory), signals that the Salvager must salvage the
entire partition. The AFS-modified version of the <emphasis role="bold">fsck</emphasis> 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.</para>
<para>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
<replaceable>/usr/afs/logs/FileLog</replaceable> file. The Bos Server then invokes the Salvager to
salvage the partition.</para>
