Summary:
Sft-check is a command-line utility to output information (blocksize, GUIDs, FB1 size etc.) about Microsoft SoftGrid SFT-packages. Additionally it can be used to scan through the content -directory (or any directory for that matter) of the SoftGrid Server in order to calculate most optimal 'Max Block Size' setting for pre-4.0 servers and to detect possible overlapping package root directory names across all the packages.
New capabilities include outputting the virtual registry and the virtual services.!

Requirements:
Download:
Download latest release: sft-check, version 1.2 (version history)
Usage:
Options: /sft FILE scan only a specified .sft file (as specified by FILE) /host HOST try to scan content directory of remote SoftGrid Server machine (as specified by HOST) /contentdir PATH scan all .sft-files from specific directory (as specified by PATH>) /verbose more detailed information about package(s) /stats basic statistics about package(s) /dirstruct output internal file-structure of the package(s) /blocks output list of blocks in package(s) /history output sequencing history for package, if present /registry output internal virtual registry structure of the package(s) /services output list of virtual services in the package(s)
If no parameters are specified, sft-check tries to resolve content directory from local machine (which won't work if the local machine is not SoftGrid Server). In order to scan remote machine, either usage of /host or /contentdir options is required. Scanning only one specific .SFT -file can be done with /sft option.
NOTE: usage of /blocks might significantly increase scanning time especially with larger packages!
Examples:
sft-check /sft c:\mypackages\myapp\myapp.sft /verbose
sft-check /contentdir c:\mypackges\
sft-check /host sftserver.domain.local /verbose
sft-check /sft c:\mypackages\myapp\myapp.sft /dirstruct /registry
sft-check /sft c:\mypackages\myapp\myapp.sft /blocks /verbose
