A.31 Pool Verify and Rebuild Commands (NetWare)

Use the commands in this section for verifying and rebuilding the metadata structure for NSS pools on NetWare. For NSS volumes on Linux, use the RAVSUI utility instead. For more information about rebuilding pools, see Section 17.0, Verifying and Rebuilding NSS Pools and Volumes.

PoolVerify

Allows you to select pools from a menu and verifies their physical integrity.

nss /PoolVerify=poolname

Verifies the physical integrity of the specified pool.

nss /PoolAutoVerify=poolname

Verifies the specified pool’s physical integrity at startup time. Do not use for pools that contain any unencrypted volumes.

nss /PoolRebuild=poolname [/reZID]

Rebuilds the data structure of the specified pool. When the /rezid option is used with the pool rebuild command, the rebuild assigns new ZIDs to files on the pool’s volumes while the pool is being rebuilt.

PoolRebuild [/reZID]

Allows you to select the pools to rebuild from a menu, then rebuild them. When the /rezid option is used with the pool rebuild command, the rebuild assigns new ZIDs to files on the pool’s volumes while the pool is being rebuilt.

/(No)ReZID

Use this option only with the pool rebuild options (the ravsui utility on Linux or nss /poolrebuild on NetWare) to enable or disable the rebuild to reZID the volume(s) in the pool that is being rebuilt.

Default: Off

Range: On or Off

Examples

For guidelines and instructions for how to use the ReZID option with pool rebuild commands, see Section 17.3, ReZIDing Volumes in an NSS Pool.
