Check mounted filesystems

UNIX Solaris

Hi,

Please help me to tell How to check mounted filesystems for any inconsistency. Can I run fsck -m /dev/rdsk/cntndnsn for this?

Thanks,

One should never run fsck on a mounted filesystem because if the file system is changing constantly, then fsck may see the changes as inconsistencies and may corrupt the file system.

Unmount and run fsck .

Thank you ningy,but is there anyway to check the mounted filesystem or we must have to unmount it first then run fsck ?
