The chksum command, in DM only, calculates a hexadecimal checksum for either an entire file or a list of items in the file, and outputs the results to a file.
When an item list is specified, statistics are calculated only for the selected item-IDs. If not specified, the entire file is used.
A new data section called checksum is created in the specified file. Each item in the checksum data section corresponds to an item in the requested file’s data section and the first attribute of each item contains the hexadecimal checksum for the item.
