There were several different real and made-up hostnames and company names used throughout our documentation examples. The IETF has reserved "example.com" and other "example" TLDs for use in examples (RFC 2606). Replace almost all references to ABC Corporation, DEF Corporation, and State University, as well as "abc.com", "bigcell.com", "def.com", "def.gov", "ghi.com", "ghi.gov", "jkl.com", "mit.edu", "stanford.edu", "state.edu", "stateu.edu", "uncc.edu", and "xyz.com". Standardize on "Example Corporation", "Example Network", "Example Organization" (example.com, example.net, and example.org). The Scout documentation in the Admin Guide contains PNG images that contain the old cell names, so I left those references until the images can be replaced.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<vos syncvldb> command verifies that the status of the volumes housed
|
|
either on all partitions on the file server machine specified by the
|
|
B<-server> argument, or on the single partition specified by the
|
|
B<-server> and B<-partition> arguments, is recorded correctly in the
|
|
VLDB. If the B<-volume> argument is included to indicate a single volume,
|
|
the command compares only its status on the file server machine with its
|
|
VLDB entry.
|
|
|
|
If the B<-volume> argument is not included, the command interpreter
|
|
obtains from the Volume Server a list of the volumes that reside on each
|
|
partition, then changes information in the VLDB as necessary to reflect
|
|
their state on the partition. For example, it creates or updates a VLDB
|
|
entry when it finds a volume for which the VLDB entry is missing or
|
|
incomplete. However, if there is already a VLDB entry that defines a
|
|
different location for the volume, or there are irreconcilable conflicts
|
|
with other VLDB entries, it instead writes a message about the conflict to
|
|
the standard error stream. The command never removes volumes from the file
|
|
server machine.
|
|
|
|
To achieve complete VLDB consistency, run this command on all file server
|
|
machines in the cell, and then run the B<vos syncserv> command on all file
|
|
server machines in the cell.
|
|
|
|
Using the B<-volume> argument basically combines the effects of this
|
|
command with those of the B<vos syncserv> command, for a single
|
|
volume. The command not only verifies that the VLDB entry is correct for
|
|
the specified volume type (read/write, backup, or read-only), but also
|
|
checks that any related volume types mentioned in the VLDB entry actually
|
|
exist at the site listed in the entry. It is not necessary to provide the
|
|
B<-server> argument (and optionally, B<-partition> argument); if one or
|
|
both is provided, the results are reliable only if they specify the actual
|
|
location of the volume indicated by the B<-volume> argument.

=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<-server> <I<server name>>
|
|
|
|
Identifies the file server machine housing the volumes for which to verify
|
|
VLDB entries. Provide the machine's IP address or its host name (either
|
|
fully qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-partition> <I<partition name>>
|
|
|
|
Identifies the partition housing the volumes for which to verify VLDB
|
|
entries. Provide the B<-server> argument along with this one. Provide the
|
|
partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example, C</vicepa>)
|
|
or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-volume> <I<volume name or ID>>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the name or volume ID number of a single volume for which to
|
|
verify the VLDB entry. This argument can be combined with the B<-server>
|
|
(and optionally, the B<-partition>) argument.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-cell> <I<cell name>>
|
|
|
|
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument
|
|
with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-dryrun>
|
|
|
|
Show the actions which would be taken, but do not make changes.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-noauth>
|
|
|
|
Assigns the unprivileged identity C<anonymous> to the issuer. Do not
|
|
combine this flag with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-localauth>
|
|
|
|
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
|
|
F</usr/afs/etc/KeyFile> file. The B<vos> command interpreter presents it
|
|
to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual
|
|
authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> argument or
|
|
B<-noauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-verbose>
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-encrypt>
|
|
|
|
Encrypts the command so that the operation's results are not transmitted
|
|
across the network in clear text. This option is available in OpenAFS
|
|
versions 1.4.11 or later and 1.5.60 or later.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-noresolve>
|
|
|
|
Shows all servers as IP addresses instead of the DNS name. This is very
|
|
useful when the server address is registered as 127.0.0.1 or when dealing
|
|
with multi-homed servers. This option is available in OpenAFS
|
|
versions 1.4.8 or later and 1.5.35 or later.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-help>
|
|
|
|
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|

|
|
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
The following example command verifies the VLDB entry for each volume
|
|
stored on the file server machine C<fs4.example.com>.
|
|
|
|
% vos syncvldb fs4.example.com
|
|
|
|
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
|
|
|
|
The issuer must be listed in the F</usr/afs/etc/UserList> 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<root>.
