Slave Node Database Checking

  To insure that updates have been propagated to all the nodes, one needs to get a summary of the current state of each local database. Since automating this procedure would be difficult, a manual procedure using code which provides a ``snapshot'' of the database has been written. The code is run via $\sim$/3_06_02/snodb.perl -snapshot and produces a file which contains a formatted summary of the contents of the local database. This summary may then be compared to a similar summary of the master copy of the database.
