CKCONFIG(8)

NAME
ckconfig - configuration checker

SYNOPSIS
ckconfig [-f] [-v] [-n] [-t tailor]

DESCRIPTION
The ckconfig tool checks various configuration details of the PP message system.

1.  It checks that all the required directories are in place. If a directory is missing, the user will be prompted for the creation of the directory.

2.  It checks that all the channels mentioned in the tailor file reference existing executables in the correct directory (chndfldir). If a channel is the filtercontrol channel running a specified filter, it checks that the channel references an existing executable filter in the correct directory (formdfldir).

3.  It checks that all the tables mentioned in the tailor file reference existing files in the correct directory (tbldfldir).

4.  There are certain channels and tables that the PP system refers to by explicit, known names. ckconfig checks to see if these names have an appropriate entry in the tailor file.

ckconfig responds to the following flags

-v  Verbose Mode. Switches the output to verbose mode, displaying correct as well as incorrect configuration details. By default, ckconfig only displays incorrect configuration details.

-f  Force Mode. Switches of any prompting to the user. Thus able to run independent of a user.

-n  No Execution Mode. Displays incorrect configuration details and what can be done to correct them, but does not attempt correction.

-t tailor
    check the given tailor file rather than the system default one.
