Syntax VERIFY <con_id> [ SYNC [,NEWER] | NOSYNC] [,CHECKSUM | NOCHECKSUM] [STARTTIME=<mm/dd/yy> [hh:mm]] [EVERY <number> <time_units>] [ORPHANS | NOORPHANS] [CLEARRESTOREREQUIRED]
Options
  • con_id—Connection ID assigned to the source/target connection
  • SYNC—Synchronizes any data that is different
  • NEWER—Synchronizes only those files that are newer on the source than on the target
  • NOSYNC—Do not synchronize any data that is different
  • CHECKSUM—Compares and/or synchronizes those blocks that are different on the source than on the target based on checksum comparisons

  • STARTTIME—Starts the verification process at the time specified
  • mm/dd/yy—Date in month/day/year format when the verification process will begin
  • hh:mm—Time in hour:minute format using the 24-hour clock when the verification process will begin
  • EVERY—Repeat the verification process at the frequency specified
  • number—Length of time to repeat the verification process
  • time_units—Minutes (min), hours (hr), or days (day)
  • ORPHANS—Moves or deletes orphan files on the target
  • NOORPHANS—Does not move or delete orphan files on the target
  • CLEARRESTOREREQUIRED—Clears the restore required flag and initiates the verification
