In order to ensure that the
data in the archive is in a good condition, it is necessary to constantly
monitor the condition of the data.

The Data Consistency
Checking (DCC) Thread takes care of this task. It is executed periodically
(defined by a configuration parameter) and carries out the check of the data.
|
|
|
|
It is checked for each file
if it is accessible, if the size is as expected and or if the checksum is
given if the checksum is correct. It is also checked if files are found on
the disk, which are not supposed to be there.
|
|
|
|
If discrepancies are found,
an Email Notification Message is send to the subscribers of this specified in
the configuration file.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to specify
how much load the DCC Thread should consume (Priority) and to specify the
maximum number of checking sub-threads that can run simultaneously. In
principle one such sub-thread per disk is created.
