System Administration Commands mkfile(1M)
NAME
mkfile - create a file
SYNOPSIS
mkfile [-nv] size [g | k | b | m] filename...
DESCRIPTION
mkfile creates one or more files that are suitable for use
as NFS-mounted swap areas, or as local swap areas. When a
root user executes mkfile(), the sticky bit is set and the
file is padded with zeros by default. When non-root users
execute mkfile(), they must manually set the sticky bit
using chmod(1). The default size is in bytes, but it can be
flagged as gigabytes, kilobytes, blocks, or megabytes, with
the g, k, b, or m suffixes, respectively.
OPTIONS
-n Create an empty filename. The size is noted, but
disk blocks are not allocated until data is written
to them. Files created with this option cannot be
swapped over local UFS mounts.
-v Verbose. Report the names and sizes of created
files.
USAGE
See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of
mkfile when encountering files greater than or equal to 2
Gbyte ( 2**31 bytes).
