INTRO(8) BSD System Manager's Manual INTRO(8)
intro - introduction to system maintenance and operation commands
The manual pages in section 8 contain information related to system operation and maintenance. They describe commands used to create new filesystems, newfs(8); verify the integrity of the filesystems, fsck(8); control disk usage, edquota(8); maintain system backups, dump(8); and re- cover files when disks die an untimely death, restore(8). The newfs(8) manual for the specific architecture the system is running on should be consulted when formatting disks and tapes. Network related services like inetd(8) and ftpd(8) are also described. The section crash(8) should be consulted to understand how to interpret system crash dumps.
