With this package it's possible to check a Linux hdd storage ext2/ext3/ext4 file system device connected through the 2 router's usb 3.0 ports.
It requires a mandatory storage device connected and correctly mounted through a router USB port, otherwise this service cannot be enabled.
This operation could be potentially dangerous: it's strongly recommended to backup partition data before attempting to check and fix the partition data involved.
Moreover, make sure to temporary disable eventual background tools/packages working on the partition data, like media-server (minidlna), transmission and smartd monitor, otherwise device can't be able to unmount before starting.
To start a partition device check type:
rc_e2fsck start /dev/sd[a-h][1-15]
To stop/interrupt a partition device check type:
rc_e2fsck stop
GUI Select device name & partition then Click: Analyze then follow screen output .
The process doesn't fork to background while running.
At the end of the check a restart of the device could be recommended.
The config file includes many settings: for a further knowledge read the man page tutorial .
Config file is located & stored in /usr/etc/e2fsck.conf .
To make modifications, vi /usr/etc/e2fsck.conf then save it.
GUI Click: Modify E2fsck Configuration , edit text then Click: Save then Click: Apply .
The config file won't be saved after package removal/upgrade and after firmware upgrade too.
Select the device partition to check. The device partition list is dynamically created when loading the web page.
Click: Analyze then follow screen output.
