svnadmin crashtest

Name

svnadmin crashtest — Simulate a process that crashes.

Synopsis

svnadmin crashtest REPOS_PATH

Description

Open the repository at REPOS_PATH, then abort, thus simulating a process that crashes while holding an open repository handle. This is used for testing automatic repository recovery (a new feature in Berkeley DB 4.4). It's unlikely that you'll need to run this command.

Options

None

Examples

$ svnadmin crashtest /var/svn/repos
Aborted

Exciting, isn't it?
