BSCAN(8) Backup Archiving REcovery Open Sourced BSCAN(8) NAME bscan - Bareos's 'Scan volumes' SYNOPSIS bscan [options] bareos-archive DESCRIPTION The purpose of bscan is to read (scan) a Bareos Volume and to recreate or update the database contents with the information found on the Volume. This is done in a non-destructive way. This permits restoring database en- tries that have been lost by pruning, purging, deleting, or a database cor- ruption problem. Normally, it should not be necessary to run the bscan command because the database is self maintaining. Logical inconsistencies in the Bareos data- base can be found by bareos-dbcheck. In addition, if you have maintained bootstrap files during backups, you should be able to recover all your data from the bootstrap file without needed an up to date catalog.
