NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       e2undo [ -f ] undo_log device

DESCRIPTION

       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

       -f     Normally,  e2undo  will  check  the  filesystem  UUID  and  last
              modified time 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.
