=head1 DESCRIPTION The B command verifies that each volume mentioned in a VLDB entry actually exists at the site indicated in the entry. It checks all VLDB entries that mention a read/write, read-only, or backup site either on any partition on the file server machine specified by the B<-server> argument, or on the one partition specified by the B<-server> and B<-partition> arguments. Note that the command can end up inspecting sites other than those specified by the B<-server> and B<-partition> arguments, if there are versions of the volume at sites other than the one specified. The command alters any incorrect information in the VLDB, unless there is an irreconcilable conflict with other VLDB entries. In that case, it writes a message to the standard error stream instead. The command never removes volumes from file server machines. To achieve complete VLDB consistency, first run the B command on all file server machines in the cell, then run this command on all file server machines in the cell. =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =item B<-server> > Identifies the file server machine mentioned in each VLDB entry to check. Provide the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see L. =item B<-partition> > Identifies the partition mentioned in each VLDB entry to check. Provide the partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example, C) or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see L. =item B<-dryrun> Show the actions which would be taken, but do not make changes. =include fragments/vos-common.pod =back =head1 EXAMPLES The following example verifies the VLDB entries in which a site definition mentions the file server machine C. % vos syncserv -server fs3.example.com =head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED The issuer must be listed in the F file on the machine specified with the B<-server> argument and on each database server machine. If the B<-localauth> flag is included, the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local superuser C. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L =head1 COPYRIGHT IBM Corporation 2000.
