Bash helper script to help with the automation of routine snapRAID tasks. Add it as a cron job to automate the routine tasks of running sync and scrub. Script will optionally send you email of status and issues encountered during the run.
#!/bin/bash

# This is a helper script that keeps snapraid parity info in sync with
# your data and optionally verifies the parity info. Here's how it works:
# 1) It first calls diff to figure out if the parity info is out of sync.
# 2) If parity info is out of sync, AND the number of deleted files exceed
# X (configurable), it triggers an alert email and stops. (In case of
# accidental deletions, you have the opportunity to recover them from
# the existing parity info)
# 3) If partiy info is out of sync, AND the number of deleted files exceed X
