SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

16       The "check" command tests the repository for errors and reports any
17       errors it finds. It can also be used to read all data and therefore
18       simulate a restore.
19
20
21       By default, the "check" command will always load all data directly from
22       the repository and not use a local cache.
