Hello,

I am looking at using the script below for backup purpose and a bit at
a loss at how the script verify the backup.

For context, I am referring to the script below and the flag below.

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/tools/backup/hot-backup.py.in

  --verify           Verify the backup

My question is, what should be the verify directory?  Is it the source
directory on which the SVN server use for writing or is it the backup
directory? I am suspecting its the source as the backup directory is
already compressed.  Would this be correct?

Regards,
William

Hello,

Just realized my problem.  One don't need to specify a directory for
verification. Would still be happy if someone can confirm if
verification is done on the source repo or  on the resulting hot
backup

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
William

It verifies the hot backup directory.
