can be invoked in interactive mode by issuing lctl command. After that, commands are issued as below. The most common commands in lctl are
.B dl
,
+.B dk
+,
.B device
,
.B network
From a list of nids for a remote node, show which interface communication
will take place on.
.TP
+.BI replace_nids " <devicename> <nid1>[,nid2,nid3 ...]"
+Replace the LNET Network Identifiers for a given device,
+as when the server's IP address has changed.
+This command must be run on the MGS node.
+Only MGS server should be started (command execution returns error
+in another cases). To start the MGS service only:
+mount -t lustre <MDT partition> -o nosvc <mount point>
+Note the replace_nids command skips any invalidated records in the configuration log.
+The previous log is backed up with the suffix '.bak'.
+.TP
.BI ping " <nid> "
Check LNET connectivity via an LNET ping. This will use the fabric
appropriate to the specified NID.
.PP

+Set the value of Lustre or LNET parameter.
+.br
+.B -n
+Disable printing of the key name when printing values.
+.br
+.B -P
+Set the parameter permanently, filesystem-wide.
+This parameters are only visible to 2.5.0 and later clients, older clients will not see these parameters.

-command must be run on the MGS node.
+command must be run on the MGS node.
+.br
+.B -d <device|fsname>.<parameter>
+Delete a parameter setting (use the default value at the next restart). A null value for <value> also deletes the parameter setting.
+.br
+.B Parameters:
+.br
+All of the writable parameters under
+.B lctl list_param
+(e.g.
+.I lctl list_param -F osc.*.* | grep =
+) can be permanently set using
+.B lctl conf_param
+, but the format is slightly different. For conf_param, the device is specified first, then the obdtype. (See examples below.) Wildcards are not supported.
+.br
+Additionally, failover nodes may be added (or removed), and some system-wide parameters may be set as well (sys.at_max, sys.at_min, sys.at_extra, sys.at_early_margin, sys.at_history, sys.timeout, sys.ldlm_timeout.) <device> is ignored for system wide parameters.
+.br
+.B Examples:
+.br
+# lctl conf_param testfs.sys.at_max=1200
+.br
+# lctl conf_param testfs.llite.max_read_ahead_mb=16

+Lustre is able to emulate a virtual block device upon regular file. It is necessary to be used when you are trying to setup a swap space via file.
+.TP
+.BI blockdev_attach " <file name> <device node>"
+Attach the lustre regular file to a block device. If the device node is not existent, lctl will create it \- it is recommended to create it by lctl since the emulator uses a dynamical major number.
+.TP
+.BI blockdev_detach " <device node>"

+.BI blockdev_info " <device node>"
+Acquire which lustre file was attached to the device node.

+Start LFSCK on the specified MDT or OST device with specified parameters.
+.TP
+ -M, --device <MDT,OST_device>
+The MDT or OST device to start LFSCK/scrub on.
+.TP
+ -A, --all
+Start LFSCK on all available MDT devices.
+.TP
+ -c, --create_ostobj [on | off]
+Create the lost OST-object for dangling LOV EA: 'off' (default) or 'on'. Under
+default mode, when the LFSCK find some MDT-object with dangling reference, it
+will report the inconsistency but will not repair it. If 'on' is given, then
+LFSCK will re-create the missed OST-object.
+.TP
+ -e, --error <error_handle>
+With error_handle as 'abort' then if a repair is impossible LFSCK will save
+the current position stop with an error. Otherwise the default behavior is
+to 'continue' if a repair is impossible.
+.TP
+ -h, --help
+Show the usage message.
+.TP
+ -n, --dryrun [on | off]
+Perform a trial run with no changes made, if 'on' or no argument is given.
+Default is 'off', meaning that any inconsistencies found will be repaired.
+.TP
+ -o, --orphan
+Handle orphan objects, such as orphan OST-objects for layout LFSCK by
+linking them under the .../.lustre/lost+found directory.
+.TP
+ -r, --reset
+Set the current position of object iteration to the beginning of the specified
+device. The non-specified parameters will also be reset to the default. By
+default the iterator will resume the scanning from the last saved checkpoint
+position, and other unspecified parameters will be the same as the prior
+incomplete run.
+.TP
+ -s, --speed <speed_limit>
+Set the upper limit of LFSCK processing in objects per second to reduce load
+on the servers and storage. If no value is specified the saved value is used
+(if resuming from a checkpoint). Otherwise the default value of 0 is used,
+which means check the filesystem as quickly as possible.
+.TP
+ -t, --type <lfsck_type[,lfsck_type...]>
+The type of LFSCK checking/repair to execute. If no type is given and the
+previous run was incomplete or internal consistency checks detected an error,
+then the same types are used for the next run. Otherwise, the default is to
+check all types of consistency. Any time LFSCK is triggered on an ldiskfs
+MDT or OST then OI Scrub is run. Valid types are a comma-separated list of one or more of
+.B scrub
+to run only the local OI Scrub on ldiskfs targets,
+.B namespace
+for FID-in-dirent and linkEA checking on the MDT(s),
+.B layout
+for MDT-OST cross-reference consistency, and
+.B all
+to run all of the available check types.
+.TP
+ -w, --window_size <size>
+Specifies the maximum number of in-flight request being processed at
+one time. This controls the load placed on remote OSTs when running
+.B layout
+checks. By default there are at most 1024 outstanding requests.
+.TP
+.B lfsck_stop \fR<-M | --device [MDT,OST]_device> [-A | --all] [-h | --help]
