✨ thin_ls(8) — System Manager's Manual ✨

💖 NAME

thin_ls - List thin volumes within a pool. 🎀

🧚 SYNOPSIS

thin_ls [options] {device|file}

🌸 DESCRIPTION

okay so thin_ls is the tool that shows you info about thin volumes sitting inside a pool 💅 bestie, the important bit: pass it the metadata device, NOT the pool device. not me making that mistake 😭

also, this tool cannot be run on live metadata unless you use the --metadata-snap option. no cap, that's the whole vibe 🫶

🦋 OPTIONS

• -h, --help — print help and exit 💜
• -V, --version — print version info and exit ✨
• -o, --format — give it a comma separated list of the fields you want output 🔥

okay the valid fields are:

DEV, MAPPED_BLOCKS, EXCLUSIVE_BLOCKS, SHARED_BLOCKS, HIGHEST_BLOCK,
MAPPED_SECTORS, EXCLUSIVE_SECTORS, SHARED_SECTORS, HIGHEST_SECTOR,
MAPPED_BYTES, EXCLUSIVE_BYTES, SHARED_BYTES, HIGHEST_BYTE, MAPPED,
EXCLUSIVE, SHARED, HIGHEST_MAPPED, TRANSACTION, CREATE_TIME, SNAP_TIME

• --no-headers — don't output headers 🍓
• -m, --metadata-snap — use a metadata snapshot 🌈

if you want to pull info out of a live pool, you'll need to take a metadata snapshot and use this switch. iykyk 🙈
