6 ovdb_server - Overview helper server for nnrpd
7
9 Use ovdb_init to start ovdb_server
10
12 If the readserver parameter in ovdb.conf is true, ovdb_init (if not
13 invoked with the -r flag) will start as many ovdb_server processes as
14 the numrsprocs parameter states.
15
16 ovdb_server opens the overview database, and accesses it on behalf of
17 the nnrpd reader processes.
18
19 To shut down ovdb_server, send a TERM signal to the process ID
20 mentioned in ovdb_server.pid in pathrun (note that the rc.news script
21 already does that if used to shut down INN). The parent process will
22 shut down its children and wait for their exit before exiting itself.
