I thought, once a part has been finished, it would not be tasked again. Howver, maybe it HAS TO be worked over and over again.

It's highly recommended to run the feed updates daily. The longer the time between the last feed update is the more data needs to be processed. If you're checking the greenbone-scapdata-sync around line 1220 there is some code located in there which is splitting too large feed .xml files into smaller parts and the "part 0 Done" is probably just a logging of this.

Hi, none of the sync scripts provided / installed with the current stable source archives published at http://www.openvas.org/install-source.html are showing this behavior or the "part 0" messages.

Re: [Openvas-discuss] openvas-feed-update - what is this part 0 thing?
Hi Christian, if you take a look at the script, it is just calling greenbone-nvt-sync, greenbone-scapdata-sync and greenbone-certdata-sync, which are IMO part of openvas. I am not sure, which one of these three commands is causing the mentioned messages, but one of this is clearly the cause. BTW, you can answer in German as well, if you like, or write directly to my mail address. Thanks for your efforts.

If you don't get an answer here at this list it is recommended to get in contact with the author of this script to get more background info what the script is actually doing and whats the purpose / meaning of these "part" messages.

[Openvas-discuss] openvas-feed-update - what is this part 0 thing?
Dear list, every time I am running openvas-feed-update script, I get messages like part 0 DONE part1 DONE part 0 DONE part 1 DONE part 2 DONE part 0 DONE ... ... ... part 0 DONE and so on. And at everything this lasts longer and longer, and I have the feeling, each time I am starting openvas-update-feed this messages is getting more and more. What is this doing? I suppose, this is some sorting thing, maybe filtering of keywords into the database or so. Is there anything, that can be done, to shorten this? I have the feeling (but no prove), that there are going things again and again. This would explain, why "part 0 DONE" appears over and over again (as well as part 1 or part 3 whatever). I would like to know the background of this thing, what it does and so on. This run is running sometimes 15 to 30 minutes, this looks strange for me, even on a slower computer. Thanks for reading this and enlightening me. Best regards Hans-J.
