| 18 | =head1 DESCRIPTION | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | The B<prdb_check> command checks the integrity of the Protection Database, | |
| 21 | reporting any errors or corruption it finds. If there are problems, do not | |
| 22 | issue any B<pts> commands until the database is repaired. | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | =head1 CAUTIONS | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | The results can be unpredictable if the Protection Server makes changes to | |
| 27 | the Protection Database while this command is running. Use the B<bos | |
| 28 | shutdown> command to shutdown the local B<ptserver> process before running | |
| 29 | this command, or before creating a second copy of the F<prdb.DB0> file | |
| 30 | (with a different name) on which to run the command. | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | =head1 OPTIONS | |
| 33 | ||
| 34 | =over 4 | |
| 35 | ||
| 36 | =item B<-database> <I<ptdb file>> | |
| 37 | ||
| 38 | Names the Protection Database (copy of the F<prdb.DB0> file) to check. If | |
| 39 | the current working directory is not the location of the file, provide a | |
| 40 | pathname, either full or relative to the current working directory. | |
| 41 | ||
| 42 | =item B<-uheader> | |
| 43 | ||
| 44 | Displays information which Ubik maintains in the database's header. | |
| 45 | ||
| 46 | =item B<-pheader> | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | Displays information which the Protection Server maintains in the | |
| 49 | database's header. | |
| 50 | ||
| 51 | =item B<-entries> | |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | Outputs every entry in the database. Some of the information is similar to | |
| 54 | that returned by the B<pts examine> command. | |
| 55 | ||
| 56 | =item B<-verbose> | |
| 57 | ||
| 58 | Reports additional information about the database, including the number of | |
| 59 | entries in the database and a trace of the internal database structures | |
| 60 | the command is verifying. | |
| 61 | ||
| 62 | =item B<-help> | |
| 63 | ||
| 64 | Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are | |
| 65 | ignored. | |
| 66 | ||
| 67 | =back | |
| 68 | ||
| 69 | =head1 OUTPUT | |
| 70 | ||
| 71 | If there are errors in the database, the output always reports them on the | |
| 72 | standard error stream. If any options other than B<-database> or B<-help> | |
| 73 | are provided, the output written to the standard output stream includes | |
| 74 | additional information as described for each option in L</OPTIONS>. The | |
| 75 | output is intended for debugging purposes and is meaningful to someone | |
| 76 | familiar with the internal structure of the Protection Database. | |
| 77 | ||
