Installation guide

The reporting tool may be rerun after further recovery work has been completed (more files restored
to cache). In these cases the tool also checks locations with visible value C. If any files have been
restored to cache since the last run of the tool, it sets those locations' visible values back to T to
indicate that they are now valid.
After the missing DICOM object file locations are marked, a report is generated for the studies that
contain lost objects. Each comma-delimited line in the report lists the patient name, patient ID,
modality, accession number, study description, study date, total number of objects, and number of
lost objects for an affected study.
Note:
In the report, any commas in these fields are replaced by a semicolon.
Deregister mode (-r)
In deregister mode, the tool changes the C values to F. This triggers the Autopilot program to
permanently delete these locations from the database. (This is a normal Autopilot function). Note
that there is no undo.
Note:
Before running the tool in deregister mode, check the report to ensure that the losses are as
expected. If the report seems to report any files that may not be missing, follow the instructions
given in the TROUBLE section.
A copy of the report and additional diagnostic messages are written to the log file.
Performance of mvf-report-loss is hardware dependent. For comparison, on a standalone Sunfire
280R, mvf-report-loss scans about 2000 files per second.
