NAME
s3ql_verify - Verify data in an S3QL file system
SYNOPSIS
s3ql_verify [options] <storage url>
DESCRIPTION
S3QL is a file system for online data storage. Before using S3QL, make sure to consult the full
documentation (rather than just the man pages which only briefly document the available userspace
commands).
The s3ql_verify command verifies all data in the file system. In contrast to fsck.s3ql, s3ql_verify does
not trust the object listing returned by the backend, but actually attempts to retrieve every object. It
therefore takes a lot longer.
The format of <storage url> depends on the backend that is used. The S3QL User's Guide should be
consulted for a description of the available backends.
OPTIONS
The s3ql_verify command accepts the following options.
--log <target>
Destination for log messages. Specify none for standard output or syslog for the system logging
daemon. Anything else will be interpreted as a file name. Log files will be rotated when they
reach 1 MiB, and at most 5 old log files will be kept. Default: None
--debug-modules <modules>
Activate debugging output from specified modules (use commas to separate multiple modules,
'all' for everything). Debug messages will be written to the target specified by the --log
option.
--debug
Activate debugging output from all S3QL modules. Debug messages will be written to the target
specified by the --log option.
--quiet
be really quiet
--version
just print program version and exit
--cachedir <path>
Store cached data in this directory (default: ~/.s3ql)
--backend-options <options>
Backend specific options (separate by commas). See backend documentation for available options.
--authfile <path>
Read authentication credentials from this file (default: ~/.s3ql/authinfo2)
--missing-file <name>
File to store keys of missing objects.
--corrupted-file <name>
File to store keys of corrupted objects.
--data Read every object completely, instead of checking just the metadata.
--parallel PARALLEL
Number of connections to use in parallel.
--start-with <n>
Skip over first <n> objects and with verifying object <n>+1.
