<para>
<command>rddbcheck</command><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> is a command-line
tool for checking the consistency of a Rivendell database and (perhaps)
repairing any inconsistencies found. When invoked without any options,
<command>rddbcheck</command><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> will run a set of
consistency checks (with the exception of the check of the SHA-1 hashes),
report any problems found and offer to repair the problem. To force a
SHA-1 hash check as well, see the <option>--rehash</option> option below.

<para>
Generate SHA-1 hashes from the specified files in the audio store
and validate them against the values stored in the database. This
is an inherently expensive operation that may require a
significant amount of time to complete as each audio
file to be checked must be opened and read in its entirety.
