NAME
       ovdb_upgrade - Perform any needed upgrades on the ovdb
       database

SYNOPSYS
       ovdb_upgrade

DESCRIPTION
       The ovdb_upgrade command is be used to upgrade the ovdb
       database when migrating to a newer version of the Berke
       leyDB library (in which there is a change in BerkeleyDB's
       internal db format).

       The upgrade is done in-place, and is not reversable.

       Here is an example procedure to upgrade a database created
       with BerkeleyDB 2.x to use BerkeleyDB 3.x:

       1   Install BerkeleyDB 3.x

       2   Do a `make clean' in the INN source tree

       3   If BerkeleyDB 3.x is installed into a different path
	   than the 2.x version, run configure again, specifying
	   the new path.  For example: `./configure --with-berke
	   leydb=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.x  [... other options]'

       4   Shut down INN (e.g., with `rc.news stop').  Be sure to
	   kill all nnrpds as well.

       5   Do a `make update' to build INN with the new Berke
	   leyDB version and install the new binaries.

       6   Run `ovdb_upgrade' as the news user.

       7   Start INN with `rc.news'
