NAME
mklocatedb - make a file name database
SYNOPSIS
mklocatedb [options]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page
documents the ALT Linux version of
mklocatedb,
which makes file name databases used by ALT Linux
locate.
The file name databases contain lists of files that were in
particular directory trees when the databases were last updated.
The file name of the default database is determined when locate
and mklocatedb are configured and installed. The frequency with
which the databases are updated and the directories for which they
contain entries depend on how often mklocatedb is run, and with
which arguments.
In networked environments, it often makes sense to build a database at
the root of each filesystem, containing the entries for that filesystem.
mklocatedb
is then run for each filesystem on the fileserver where that
filesystem is on a local disk, to prevent thrashing the network.
Users can select which databases locate searches using an
environment variable or command line option; see locate(1).
Databases can not be concatenated together.
OPTIONS
--searchpaths='path1 path2...'
Directories to put in the database.
The environment variable
SEARCHPATHS also sets this value.
Default is /.

Directories to not put in the database, which would otherwise be.

Default is /afs /mnt /net /proc /tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp.
--prunefs='fstyp1 fstyp2...'
File systems to not put in the database, which would otherwise be.
Note that files are pruned when a file system is reached;
Any file system mounted under an undesired file system will be
ignored.
The environment variable
PRUNEFS also sets this value.
Default is autofs cardfs cefs davfs devfs devpts ftpfs iso9660 localfs ncp ncpfs nfs proc smbfs sshfs supermount udf usbdevfs vfat.
