NAME         top

       e2undo - Replay an undo log for an ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem

SYNOPSIS         top

       e2undo [ -f ] [ -h ] [ -n ] [ -v ] undo_log device

DESCRIPTION         top

       e2undo will replay the undo log undo_log for an ext2/ext3/ext4
       filesystem found on device.  This can be used to undo a failed
       operation by an e2fsprogs program.

OPTIONS         top

       -f     Normally, e2undo will check the filesystem superblock to make
              sure the undo log matches with the filesystem on the device.
              If they do not match, e2undo will refuse to apply the undo log
              as a safety mechanism.  The -f option disables this safety
              mechanism.
       -h     Display a usage message.
       -n     Dry-run; do not actually write blocks back to the filesystem.
       -o offset
              Specify the filesystem's offset (in bytes) from the beginning
              of the device or file.
       -v     Report which block we're currently replaying.
