NAME
       ovdb_recover - Perform recovery on the ovdb database, if
       needed

SYNOPSYS
       ovdb_recover [-f]

DESCRIPTION
       Attempts to open the ovdb database, and if the database
       needs recovery, it attempts to perform the recovery.  Sim
       ilar in function to the BerkeleyDB db_recover command.

       Specify the `-f' option to force a recovery, even if the
       database appears to not need it.	 It is not an error to
       perform a recovery operation on a clean database.  How
       ever, do not run `ovdb_recover -f' while the database is
       in use by any other processes.

       Returns exit status of 0 if the database did not need
       recovery or if recovery succeeded, and returns exit status
       1 if recovery failed.  In the latter case, the database
       may be damaged beyond repair, requiring a rebuild with
       makehistory(8).

       This command is normally called automatically by
       rc.news(8).
