NAME

       systemd-fsck@.service, systemd-fsck-root.service, systemd-fsck - File system checker logic

SYNOPSIS

       systemd-fsck@.service

       systemd-fsck-root.service

       /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-fsck

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-fsck@.service is a service responsible for file system checks. It is instantiated
       for each device that requires a file system check.  systemd-fsck-root.service is
       responsible for file system checks on the root file system.

       systemd-fsck will forward file system checking progress to the console. If a file system
       check fails emergency mode is activated, by isolating to emergency.target.

KERNEL COMMAND LINE

       systemd-fsck understands one kernel command line parameter:

       fsck.mode=
           One of auto, force, skip. Controls the mode of operation. The default is auto, and
           ensures that file system checks are done when the file system checker deems them
           necessary.  force unconditionally results in full file system checks.  skip skips any
           file system checks.
