YB-SELF-TEST(1)
π YB-SELF-TEST(1) β like, the manual page, but make it make sense β¨
Okay bestie, so this is yb-self-test(1) from the User Commands section, and it is not a drill. Sit down, hydrate, and let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
self-test β run a destructive end-to-end self-test on real hardware π
Like, actual hardware. Actual destruction. Main character energy, but the main character is your data.
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
self-test [--count] [--seed] [--no-cleanup] [--no-flash] [-h|--help]
That's the whole vibe. Short, iconic, mildly threatening π₯
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
Run a destructive end-to-end self-test on real hardware.
That's it. That's the whole description. No cap, it's one line and it's saying a LOT. The test goes end to end, it runs on real hardware, and it is destructive β so read that word again, slowly, and then decide if you're really about to do this π
π OPTIONS π
--count <COUNT>β number of store/fetch/remove/list operations to run. Default is200, so like, a whole little workout for your storage. [default: 200] πͺ--seed <SEED>β the RNG seed, so your operation sequences are reproducible. Default is42β yes, that 42, the iconic one. [default: 42] π²--no-cleanupβ keep the blobs after a successful test, i.e. skip the cleanup step. Basically "leave the mess, I'll deal with it later" energy. β οΈ the blobs stay. π«§--no-flashβ suppress the LED flashing during the confirmation prompt. If the blinking lights are too much for your nervous system rn, this is your girl. β¨-h,--helpβ print help. The classic. The reliable one. The friend who always shows up. π
π real talk: this is a destructive test. It runs on real hardware. It's gonna store, fetch, remove and list for as long as you told it to, and it is not playing. Read the options before you send it, bestie, fr fr.
