Hi Lucas,

Actually, the option you use for by-part scanning is not the good one.
This would result in wrong or partial DB contents.

With robinhood 2.4.x, the option is:
    robinhood --partial-scan=/A/B --once -f myconf -L stdout

With robinhood 2.5, the option is:
    robinhood --scan=/A/B --once -f myconf -L stdout
Optionally, you can add the --no-gc option to speed up the scan,
if you don't care about cleaning removed entries from DB,
or if you don't expect to have entries deleted in your FS.

-F is useless and leads to such mistakes, I should drop it.

Regards,
Thomas

Hello,
I have a thought in my mind that running robinhood in multiple nodes to scan the file system. first step is to split the file system into many sub-filesystem(I have find a way to implement it ), then run robinhood in many other nodes and update the ENTRIES table of MySQL database. I tested the -F parameter, here we surpose the structure of the database is:
       /A
       |-- B
       |-- C
       |-- D
And there are three nodes using robinhood to scan the the file system:
      Node1: robinhood --scan --once -f myconf -L stdout -F /A/B
      Node1: robinhood --scan --once -f myconf -L stdout -F /A/C
      Node1: robinhood --scan --once -f myconf -L stdout -F /A/D
Apparently it is not works, but what if modified the source codes of list_mgr and only update the ENTRIES table ?
Is that a good idea?
Best regards,
Lucas
