The tverify
command can be used to verify the integrity of all
data in an archive (usually one on tape) by checking it against the
filesystem contents. tverify
supposes that the file system
contents did not change during or between the backup and the verify
pass. If a files in the filesystem and on tape are not identical,
tverify
supposes that the copy on tape was written incorrectly.
This may lead to incorrect error reports when verifying against a live
filesystem.
Running tverify goes along the same lines as running trestore, except
that you are asked for a verify method
in stead of an unpack
method.
