The MAPS command examines or updates bitmaps. The format of the MAPS command is:

         M[APS] /BL[OCK]=block-number
                /BU[SY]
                /F[REE]
                /M[ASTER]
                /R[ESTORE_ALL]
        

MAPS can flag blocks as being either /BUSY or /FREE. The /MASTER qualifier reflects the current status of a local bitmap back into the master map. The /RESTORE_ALL qualifier rebuilds all maps and should be used with caution since it can destroy important information.

By default, MAPS shows the status of the bitmap for the specified block.
