DBD(1) Netatalk AFP Fileserver Manual DBD(1) Name dbd -- CNID database maintenance utility Synopsis dbd [-cfFistuv] [volumepath] dbd [-V] Description dbd scans all file and directories of an AFP volume and updates the CNID database when discrepancies are found between the database and the filesys- tem. It must be run with appropriate permissions, i.e. as root. When run with the -f parameter, it will completely wipe the existing volume table in the database and create a new one from scratch. This can be used for example to convert a volume from one CNID scheme to another. Despite sharing a name with the dbd (Database Daemon) CNID backend module, this tool can be used with any CNID backend. Options -c convert from AppleDouble v2 to Extended Attributes filesystem meta- data -f delete and recreate CNID database -F location of the afp.conf config file -i invalidate CNID hints stored in AppleDouble files, so existing data- base entries are used instead of stale AD hints; combine with -f to assign fresh CNIDs to all files and directories -s scan volume: treat the volume as read only and don't perform any filesystem modifications -t show statistics while running -u username for use with AFP volumes using user variable $u -v verbose -V display version info CNID usage The CNID backends maintains filename to ID mappings. If you change a file- name outside afpd(8) (shell, samba), the CNID database will not reflect that change. Netatalk tries to recover from such inconsistencies as grace- fully as possible. For when you want to operate on a Netatalk volume outside of an AFP client without sacrificing the integrity of the CNID database, you can use the nad(1) tool which updates the CNID records while modifying files.
