and context of the values, it is recommended to check the source
code's `log_tag()` statements.
Status
This section describe the tags output with the `status` command.
When a path is output, it is always escaped using a backslash (\) as
the escape character.
The following characters are escaped into sequences:
The colon - is escaped to \d.
The newline - is escaped to \n.
The carriage return - is escaped to \r.
The backslash - is escaped to \\.
Some tags are output only when the `--gui` option is used. They provide
extra verbose state and runtime progress only useful for a GUI
interface.
Configuration Tags
These tags report the memory usage and global configuration after
scanning the disk and reading the list of files.
=conf:file:<path>
Configuration file loaded (escaped string).
=conf:missing:
Operating without a configuration file.
=blocksize:<bytes>
The configured block size in bytes (uint).
=data:<disk_name>:<dir>
The data disks as defined in the configuration file.
<disk_name> - The assigned name of the disk.
<dir> - The directory entry point of the disk.
=mode:<raidname>
The RAID mode used. One of `par1`, `par2`, `par3`, `par4`,
`par5`, `par6` or `parz`. The number indicates the maximum
number of simultaneous disk failures the array can withstand.
=<parity_level>:<split_index>:<path>
The parity files as defined in the configuration file.
<parity_level> - One of `parity`, `2-parity`, ..., `6-parity`.
This corresponds to the level of redundancy.
<split_index> - The split index (uint). If no
multiple split parity is configured, there is only the
index 0. A split parity configuration distributes parity
blocks across multiple files.
<path> - The escaped path.
=pool:<dir>
The configured dir to the pool mount point (escaped string).
This is the optional mount point for the 'pool' feature.
=share:<dir>
The configured dir to the pool mount point (escaped string).
This is the optional mount point for the 'share' feature.
=autosave:<bytes>
If the autosave feature is enabled, and after how many bytes
(uint64). This specifies the interval for content file saving.
=filter:<pattern>
All the active filters with their patterns. These patterns
exclude specific files or directories from the SnapRAID array.
=filter:nohidden:
If the no-hidden filter is enabled, meaning hidden files/directories
(starting with '.') are excluded from the array.
=content:<path>
The absolute path to a content file being used (escaped string).
Content files store the metadata (like file hashes and timestamps)
for the array.
=content:<parity_level>:<split_index>:<path>:<uuid>:<size>
The parity files as stored in the content file.
<parity_level> - One of `parity`, `2-parity`, ..., `6-parity`.
<split_index> - The split index (uint). If no
multiple split parity is configured, there is only the
index 0.
<path> - The escaped path.
<uuid> - The UUID of the partition containing the path.
<size> - The size of the parity file. Size is -1 if not yet
fixed, meaning it can grow. This happens for the
latest split.
Diagnostics Tags
=version:<version>
The version of SnapRAID run.
=unixtime:<time>
The current time in the unix format (uint64), representing
seconds since the epoch.
=time:<YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS>

=argv:<number>:<argument>
All the arguments of the executable command. The 0 one is the
executable run.
=memory:used:<bytes>

`scan:equal` is only output when the `--gui` option is used.
=scan:equal:<disk_name>:<path>
A file, link, or directory is equal (unchanged) (GUI only).
No action is required for this item.
<disk_name> - Name of the data disk.
<path> - Path to the file/link/dir relative to the disk mount
(escaped string).
=scan:add:<disk_name>:<path>
A new file, link, or directory was found that is not in the
content file. This item will be added to the array in a `sync`.
=scan:remove:<disk_name>:<path>
A file, link, or directory has been removed from the filesystem
since the last sync. This item will be removed from the
content file in a `sync`.
=scan:update:<disk_name>:<path>

that only updates the path metadata without re-hashing blocks.
<old_path> - The old path to the file (escaped string).
<new_path> - The new path to the file (escaped string).
=scan:copy:<disk_name>:<path>:<source_disk>:<source_path>
A new file was found to be a copy of a file from another disk.
This is detected by matching file size and timestamp, and is an
efficient operation that avoids re-hashing all blocks.
<source_disk> - The original file's disk.
<source_path> - The original file's location (escaped string).
=scan:restore:<disk_name>:<path>
A file's inode has changed but not its date-time and size,
which suggests the file may be restored from backup.
The file won't be re-hashed in `sync` as its precomputed hash
is assumed to be correct.
These tags provide a final count of all detected changes.

and context of the values, it is recommended to check the source
code's `log_tag()` statements.
When a path is output, it is always escaped using a backslash (\) as
the escape character.
2 STATUS
========
The following characters are escaped into sequences:
The colon - is escaped to \d.
The newline - is escaped to \n.
The carriage return - is escaped to \r.
The backslash - is escaped to \\.
This section describe the tags output with the `status` command.
Some tags are output only when the `--gui` option is used. They provide
extra verbose state and runtime progress only useful for a GUI
interface.
2 CONFIGURATION TAGS
====================
These tags report the memory usage and global configuration after
scanning the disk and reading the list of files.
conf:file:<path>
Configuration file loaded (escaped string).
conf:missing:
Operating without a configuration file.
blocksize:<bytes>
The configured block size in bytes (uint).
data:<disk_name>:<dir>
The data disks as defined in the configuration file.
<disk_name> - The assigned name of the disk.
<dir> - The directory entry point of the disk.
mode:<raidname>
The RAID mode used. One of `par1`, `par2`, `par3`, `par4`,
`par5`, `par6` or `parz`. The number indicates the maximum
number of simultaneous disk failures the array can withstand.
<parity_level>:<split_index>:<path>
The parity files as defined in the configuration file.
<parity_level> - One of `parity`, `2-parity`, ..., `6-parity`.
This corresponds to the level of redundancy.
<split_index> - The split index (uint). If no
multiple split parity is configured, there is only the
index 0. A split parity configuration distributes parity
blocks across multiple files.
<path> - The escaped path.
pool:<dir>
The configured dir to the pool mount point (escaped string).
This is the optional mount point for the 'pool' feature.
share:<dir>
The configured dir to the pool mount point (escaped string).
This is the optional mount point for the 'share' feature.
autosave:<bytes>
If the autosave feature is enabled, and after how many bytes
(uint64). This specifies the interval for content file saving.
filter:<pattern>
All the active filters with their patterns. These patterns
exclude specific files or directories from the SnapRAID array.
filter:nohidden:
If the no-hidden filter is enabled, meaning hidden files/directories
(starting with '.') are excluded from the array.
content:<path>
The absolute path to a content file being used (escaped string).
Content files store the metadata (like file hashes and timestamps)
for the array.
content:<parity_level>:<split_index>:<path>:<uuid>:<size>
The parity files as stored in the content file.
<parity_level> - One of `parity`, `2-parity`, ..., `6-parity`.

multiple split parity is configured, there is only the
index 0.
<path> - The escaped path.
<uuid> - The UUID of the partition containing the path.
<size> - The size of the parity file. Size is -1 if not yet
fixed, meaning it can grow. This happens for the
latest split.

`scan:equal` is only output when the `--gui` option is used.
scan:equal:<disk_name>:<path>
A file, link, or directory is equal (unchanged) (GUI only).
No action is required for this item.
<disk_name> - Name of the data disk.
<path> - Path to the file/link/dir relative to the disk mount
(escaped string).
scan:add:<disk_name>:<path>
A new file, link, or directory was found that is not in the
content file. This item will be added to the array in a `sync`.
scan:remove:<disk_name>:<path>
A file, link, or directory has been removed from the filesystem
since the last sync. This item will be removed from the
content file in a `sync`.
scan:update:<disk_name>:<path>

This item will have its content data blocks re-hashed in a `sync`.
scan:move:<disk_name>:<old_path>:<new_path>
A file was moved on the same disk. This is an efficient operation
that only updates the path metadata without re-hashing blocks.
<old_path> - The old path to the file (escaped string).
<new_path> - The new path to the file (escaped string).
scan:copy:<disk_name>:<path>:<source_disk>:<source_path>
A new file was found to be a copy of a file from another disk.
This is detected by matching file size and timestamp, and is an
efficient operation that avoids re-hashing all blocks.
<source_disk> - The original file's disk.
<source_path> - The original file's location (escaped string).
scan:restore:<disk_name>:<path>
A file's inode has changed but not its date-time and size,
which suggests the file may be restored from backup.
The file won't be re-hashed in `sync` as its precomputed hash
is assumed to be correct.

summary:error_unrecoverable:<unrecoverable_count>
Logs the total number of unrecoverable errors (not in audit-only mode).
<unrecoverable_count> - Number of unrecoverable errors (uint).
summary:exit:<status>
Logs the overall exit status of the command. The `status` is one of
the following:
`ok` - Indicates that the operation completed with no errors.
`recovered` - Indicates that the operation completed with all
errors successfully recovered (fix mode only).
`recoverable` - Indicates that errors were found but are all
recoverable (check mode only).
`unrecoverable` - Indicates that unrecoverable errors were
found.
`error` - Indicates that errors were found (audit-only mode).
10 ERROR TAGS
=============
These tags report specific errors that occur on data disks during the
commands that access files and parities.
error:<block>:<disk_name>:<file>:<msg>
Logs file access errors (open, read, file changed) during the
data disk read operation for parity calculation or verification.
<block> - The zero-based index of the block where the error occurred (uint).
<disk_name> - The name of the data disk.
<file> - The path (relative to the disk mount point) of the
file containing the block (escaped).
<msg> - A descriptive message indicating the nature of the
error (e.g., `Open/Read/Write EIO error`, `Open/Read/Write error`, `Data error at position <pos>, diff bits <diff>/<bits>`).
parity_error:<block>:<level>:<msg>
Logs errors during parity disk read or write operations.
<block> - The zero-based index of the block where the error occurred (uint).
<level> - The configuration name of the parity level (e.g., `parity`, `2-parity`).
<msg> - A descriptive message indicating the nature of the
error (e.g., `Read/Write EIO error`, `Read/Write error`, `Data error, diff bits <diff>/<bits>`).
hardlink_error:<disk_name>:<link_path>:<target_path>:<msg>
Indicates an error when attempting to access a hard link.
<disk_name> - The name of the disk.
<link_path> - The hard link path relative to disk root (escaped).
<target_path> - The target path of the hard link (escaped).
<msg> - A descriptive message indicating the nature of the
error (e.g., `Hardlink stat error`, `Hardlink error for not regular file`, `Hardlink to stat error`, `Hardlink-to error for not regular file`, `Hardlink mismatch for different inode`).
symlink_error:<disk_name>:<link_path>:<msg>
Indicates an error when attempting to access a symbolic link.
<disk_name> - The name of the disk.
<link_path> - The symlink path relative to disk root (escaped).
<msg> - A descriptive message indicating the nature of the
error (e.g., `Symlink read error`, `Symlink data error '<actual>' instead of '<expected>'`).
dir_error:<disk_name>:<dir_path>:<msg>
Indicates an error when attempting to access a directory.
<disk_name> - The name of the disk.
<dir_path> - The directory path relative to disk root (escaped).
<msg> - A descriptive message indicating the nature of the
error (e.g., `Dir stat error`, `Dir error for not directory`).
outofparity:<disk_name>:<file_path>
Logs that a file's blocks extend beyond the available parity space,
indicating that the parity files are too small to protect all data.
This occurs when data requires more parity than is available on the
parity disk(s) and is a critical warning.
<disk_name> - The name of the disk containing the file.
<file_path> - The file path relative to the disk root (escaped).
