Initiating a Standard Data Consistency Check

The basic command to initiate a database consistency check, using default settings, is

CHECK <gid>

where <gid>, the element below which checks are to be carried out, may be any SPEC, SELE, SPCO or COMP.

If you start the check from within a specification (SPEC, SELE or SPCO) all components referenced via the starting element will be checked. If you start the check at component level (COMP), only that component and elements below it will be checked.

(See Controlling the Detailed Checking Procedure for further information of the ways in which you can modify the default checking procedures.)
