checkfororphans
The checkfororphans option specifies whether or not the dsmreconcile command checks for migrated files that are no longer present on the server but whose stub files still remain on the client (orphans). The option parameter that you set determines whether or not the dsmreconcile command queries the scout daemon for all migrated and premigrated files.
Options File
Place this option at the beginning of the dsm.sys file before any server stanzas.
Syntax
Parameters
- NO
- The dsmreconcile command checks for orphans only when you remove the space management client from your file system, or when you specify the -o parameter with the dsmreconcile command. Queries to the scout daemon for migrated and premigrated files are not done. This is the default.
- YES
- The dsmreconcile command checks for orphans.
When orphans stubs are located, their names are recorded in .SpaceMan/orphan.stubs. The dsmreconcile command queries the scout daemon
for all migrated and premigrated files.
The scout daemon must be running if the checkfororphans option is set to YES.
