SYNOPSIStdbbackup [−s suffix] [−v] [−h] [−l]

DESCRIPTIONThis tool is part of the samba(1) suite​. tdbbackup is a tool that may be used to backup samba ​.tdb files​. This tool may also be used to verify the integrity of the ​.tdb files prior to samba startup or during normal operation​. If it finds file damage and it finds a prior backup the backup file will be restored​.

OPTIONS−h Get help information​. −s suffix The −s option allows the administrator to specify a file backup extension​. This way it is possible to keep a history of tdb backup files by using a new suffix for each backup​. −v The −v will check the database for damages (corrupt data) which if detected causes the backup to be restored​. −l This options disables any locking, by passing TDB_NOLOCK to tdb_open_ex()​. Only use this for database files which are not used by any other process! And also only if it is otherwise not possible to open the database, e​.g​. databases which were created with mutex locking​.

COMMANDSGENERAL INFORMATION The tdbbackup utility can safely be run at any time​. It was designed so that it can be used at any time to validate the integrity of tdb files, even during Samba operation​. Typical usage for the command will be: tdbbackup [−s suffix] *​.tdb Before restarting samba the following command may be run to validate ​.tdb files: tdbbackup −v [−s suffix] *​.tdb Samba ​.tdb files are stored in various locations, be sure to run backup all ​.tdb file on the system​.
