check
-----

Checks the expression and limits in the server. Will also check trigger references.
Trigger expressions that reference paths that don't exist, will be reported as errors.
(Note: On the client side unresolved paths in trigger expressions must
have an associated 'extern' specified)
  arg = [ _all_ | / | list of node paths ]

Usage:

    --check=_all_           # Checks all the suites
    --check=/               # Checks all the suites
    --check=/s1 /s2/f1/t1   # Check suite /s1 and task t1

The client considers, for both user and task commands, the following environment variables:

  ECF_HOST <string> [mandatory*]
    The main server hostname; default value is 'localhost'
  ECF_PORT <int> [mandatory*]
    The main server port; default value is '3141'
  ECF_SSL <any> [optional*]
    Enable secure communication between client and server.
  ECF_HOSTFILE <string> [optional]
    File that lists alternate hosts to try, if connection to main host fails
  ECF_HOSTFILE_POLICY <string> [optional]
    The policy ('task' or 'all') to define which commands consider using alternate hosts.

The options marked with (*) must be specified in order for the client to communicate
with the server, either by setting the environment variables or by specifying the
command line options.
