+
+ <para><command>bbstoreaccounts</command> is the tool for managing accounts

+ accounts, as well as create, change and delete accounts on the store
+ server.</para>
+
+ <para><command>bbstoreaccounts</command> always takes at least 2
+ parameters: the command name and the account ID. Some commands require
+ additional parameters, and some commands have optional parameters.</para>

+ <para>Explanation:</para>
+
+ <para><variablelist>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Account ID</term>
+
+ <listitem>
+ <para>The account ID being displayed.</para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Last Object ID</term>
+
+ <listitem>
+ <para>A counter that keeps track of the objects that
+ have been backed up. This number refers to the last file
+ that was written to the store. The ID is displayed as a
+ decimal number, and the object ID can be converted to a
+ path name to a file as follows: convert the number to
+ hex (e.g.: 58757 =&gt; 0xE585); The last backed up file
+ will be (relative from the client's store root):
+ <filename>e5/o85.rfw</filename>. Longer numbers infer
+ more directories in the structure, so as an example
+ 3952697264 as the last object ID gives 0xEB995FB0, which
+ translates to a backup pathname of
+ <filename>eb/99/5f/ob0.rfw</filename>.</para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Blocks used</term>
+
+ <listitem>
+ <para>The number of blocks used by the store. The size
+ in Mb depends on the number of blocks, as well as the
+ block size for the disc set given in <citerefentry>
+ <refentrytitle>raidfile.conf</refentrytitle>
+
+ <manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
+ </citerefentry>. In this case the block size is
+ 4096.</para>

+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Block soft limit</term>
+
+ <listitem>
+ <para>The soft limit in blocks. The soft limit is the

+ chronological order (oldest first), until the data used
+ is less than the soft limit.</para>

+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Block hard limit</term>
+
+ <listitem>

+ Housekeeping will reduce the storage use, so more data
+ can be uploaded.</para>
