VERIFY-CHKSUM v2.6
The VERIFY-CHKSUM
subcommand verifies the MD5 checksums of the full backups and any user-defined tablespaces for the specified database server or for all database servers. The checksum is verified by comparing the current checksum of the backup against the checksum when the backup was taken.

subcommand is only used for tar format backups.

The following table describes the VERIFY-CHKSUM
options:
Options | Description |

-s { <server_name> | all } --server { <server_name> | all } | <server_name> is the name of the database server whose tar backup checksums are to be verified.If all is specified or if the -s option is omitted, the checksums of all tar backups are verified for all database servers. |
-i {<backup_id> | <backup_name> | all }--backupid {<backup_id> | <backup_name> | all } | <backup_id> is the backup identifier of a tar format full backup whose checksum is to be verified along with any user-defined tablespaces. <backup_name> is the user-defined alphanumeric name for the full backup.If all is specified or if the -i option is omitted, the checksums of all tar backups for the relevant database server are verified. |
