defragcron(8)
NAME
  defragcron - Schedules AdvFS file domains for defragmenting

SYNOPSIS
  /usr/sbin/defragcron [-p] [-q] [-tnnn] [-b hh:mm]
	  [-a hh:mm] [domain ...]
  /usr/sbin/defragcron [-p] [-q] [-tnnn] [-T mm]
	  [domain ...]

PARAMETERS
  domain ...
      Specifies one or more AdvFS file domains.	 If no domains are specified,
      the default action is for the utility to defragment all active AdvFS
      file domains.

FLAGS
  -p  Specifies that the domains are to be defragmented in parallel.  If not
      specified, the default is to serially defragment the domains.

  -q  Suppress informational messages.	If not specified, the default is to
      produce informational messages.

  -t nnn
      Specifies the aggregate I/O performance threshold, the point at which
      the domain should be defragmented.  A number from 1-100.	If not
      specified, the default is to always defragment the domain.

      The performance threshold is based on the value returned by the
      defragment -nv command.  If this value is lower than or equal to the
      value specified here, the domain is defragmented.

  -b hh:mm
      If specified, the utility will not run before this time and will return
      an error if the time is not yet reached.	Specify time values using the
      24-hour clock.  If not specified, the default time is 01:00.

  -a hh:mm
      If specified, the utility will not run after this time, and will return
      an error if the time has been passed.  Specify time values using the
      24-hour clock.  If not specified, the default time is 05:00.

  -T mmm
      Specifies an exact time interval, in minutes, for the defragment
      utility to run.  If not specified, there is no default.

      If you use this flag, its action overrides the before and after time
      checking of the -a and -b flags.


DESCRIPTION
  The defragcron utility runs the defragment utility to a schedule that you
  specify on all active AdvFS file domains or on the active domains you
  specify.

  The typical use of this utility is to run it as a command in the cron
  daemon.  See cron(8).

  The utility does not attempt to defragment inactive file domains (those
  which have unmounted filesets).

RESTRICTIONS
  You must have root user privileges to run this utility.

  All restrictions for the defragment utility are in effect for the defragcon
  utility.

EXAMPLES
  The following example defragments all active domains that have an aggregate
  I/O performance threshold less than or equal to 60 for an interval of 240
  minutes:

       # /usr/sbin/defragcon -q -t 60 -T 240

EXIT VALUES
  The utility returns a zero on success.  Otherwise, it returns a 1 and an
  error diagnostic.

FILES
  /usr/sbin/defragcron
	     The command's path.

  /usr/sbin/defragment
	     The path of the defragment utility.
