MAKE_SHA1(8)MAKE_SHA1(8)NAME
make_sha1 - Generate SHA1 checksums for given set of users.
SYNOPSIS
make_sha1 [ -C config-file ] [ -D md5_dir ] [ -k count ] [ -f
input_file ] [ -m offset ] [ -M modulo ] [ -v ] [ userid... ]
DESCRIPTION
Generate SHA1 checksums for messages given set of users. Works as
incremental update: reads in existing set of SHA1 checksums from
sha1_dir/u/userid (hashed on first letter of userid) if that file
exists. Scans account looking for new messages, and then updates
record.
The SHA1 checksums which are generated are used to test integrity of
the master, replica and backup systems on Hermes.
OPTIONS-C config-file
Read configuration options from config-file.
-D sha1_dir
Read and write SHA1 checksums from sha1_dir, overrides configu‐
ration file setting of the same name.
-k count
Concurrency level: run up to count asynchronous child processes.
-f input_file
List of accounts to process: use in place of command line argu‐
ments.
-m offset
Regenerate given fraction of the user database in combination
with -M below.
-M modulo
Regenerate SHA1 checksums for given fraction of user database.
Allows for rolling consisency checks.
-v Verbose mode.
