PROGRAM:
NAME
vos_syncserv - Verifies VLDB entries that mention a specified site
SYNOPSIS
vos syncserv -server <machine name>
[-partition <partition name>]
[-cell <cell name>]
[-dryrun]
[-noauth] [-localauth]
[-verbose] [-encrypt] [-noresolve] [-help]
vos syncs -s <machine name>
[-p <partition name>]
[-c <cell name>] [-d]
[-noa] [-l] [-v] [-e] [-nor] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The vos syncserv 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 -server argument, or on the one partition specified by the -server and
-partition arguments. Note that the command can end up inspecting sites other than those
specified by the -server and -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 vos syncvldb command on all file
server machines in the cell, then run this command on all file server machines in the
cell.
OPTIONS
-server <server name>
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 vos(1).
-partition <partition name>
Identifies the partition mentioned in each VLDB entry to check. Provide the
partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example, "/vicepa") or use one of
the three acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see vos(1).
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the
-localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).
-dryrun
Show the actions which would be taken, but do not make changes.
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag
with the -localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile
file. The vos command interpreter presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location
Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell argument
or -noauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).
-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.
-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.
-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.
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
EXAMPLES
The following example verifies the VLDB entries in which a site definition mentions the
file server machine "fs3.abc.com".
% vos syncserv -server fs3.abc.com
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine
specified with the -server argument and on each database server machine. If the -localauth
flag is included, the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local
superuser "root".
