storeBackupCheckBackup.pl

storeBackupCheckBackup.pl verifies the consistency of a backup by using the md5 sums generated during the backup in .md5CheckSums and compares these with just calculated ones. It also checks all files in the backup and the files considered in .md5CheckSums for existence or non-existence.
