</PRE>
<P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
<P>The <B>vos syncserv</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</B> argument, or on the one partition specified by the
<B>-server</B> and <B>-partition</B> arguments. Note that the
command can end up inspecting sites other than those specified by the
<B>-server</B> and <B>-partition</B> arguments, if there are versions
of the volume at sites other than the one specified.
<P>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.
<P>To achieve complete VLDB consistency, first run the <B>vos syncvldb</B>
command on all file server machines in the cell, then run this command on all
file server machines in the cell.
<P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
<DL>
<P><DT><B>-server
</B><DD>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
the introductory reference page for the <B>vos</B> command suite.
<P><DT><B>-partition
</B><DD>Identifies the partition mentioned in each VLDB entry to check.
Provide the partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example,
<B>/vicepa</B>) or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated
forms. For details, see the introductory reference page for the
<B>vos</B> command suite.
<P><DT><B>-cell
</B><DD>Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this
argument with the <B>-localauth</B> flag. For more details, see the
introductory <B>vos</B> reference page.
<P><DT><B>-noauth
</B><DD>Assigns the unprivileged identity <B>anonymous</B> to the
issuer. Do not combine this flag with the <B>-localauth</B>
flag. For more details, see the introductory <B>vos</B> reference
page.
<P><DT><B>-localauth
</B><DD>Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
<B>/usr/afs/etc/KeyFile</B> file. The <B>vos</B> command
interpreter presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during
mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the
<B>-cell</B> argument or <B>-noauth</B> flag. For more details,
see the introductory <B>vos</B> reference page.
<P><DT><B>-verbose
</B><DD>Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the
command's execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings
and error messages appear.
<P><DT><B>-help
</B><DD>Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
are ignored.
</DL>
<P><STRONG>Examples</STRONG>
<P>The following example verifies the VLDB entries in which a site definition
mentions the file server machine <B>fs3.abc.com</B>.
<PRE> % <B>vos syncserv -server fs3.abc.com</B>
</PRE>
<P><STRONG>Privilege Required</STRONG>
<P>The issuer must be listed in the <B>/usr/afs/etc/UserList</B> file on
the machine specified with the <B>-server</B> argument and on each
database server machine. If the <B>-localauth</B> flag is included,
the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local
superuser <B>root</B>.
