Because the key/data pairs are output in page order as opposed to the

|
|
corruption. For example, if a key/data pair on a page is marked as
|
|
|
|
|
deleted, it is not then written to the output file. When
|
|
|
|
|
DB_AGGRESSIVE is specified, corruption is assumed, and any key/data

pair that can be found is written. In this case, key/data pairs that

|
|
|
|
are corrupted or have been deleted may appear in the output (even if

|
|

the file being salvaged is in no way corrupt), and the output will

almost certainly require editing before being loaded into a database.

When using the DB_SALVAGE flag, if characters in either the key or

|
data items are printing characters (as defined by <span class="bold"><strong>isprint</strong></span>(3)), use printing characters to

represent them. This flag permits users to use standard text editors

and tools to modify the contents of databases or selectively remove

The <code class="methodname">DB->verify()</code> method normally verifies that btree keys and
|
|
|
|
|
duplicate items are correctly sorted, and hash keys are correctly
|
|
|
|
|
hashed. If the file being verified contains multiple databases using
|
|
|
|
|
differing sorting or hashing algorithms, some of them must necessarily
|
|
|
|
|
fail database verification because only one sort order or hash
|
|
|
|
|
function can be specified before <code class="methodname">DB->verify()</code> is called. To verify
|
|
|
|
|
files with multiple databases having differing sorting orders or
|
|
|
|
|
hashing functions, first perform verification of the file as a whole
|
|
|
|
|
by using the DB_NOORDERCHK flag, and then individually verify the sort
|
|
|
|
|
order and hashing function for each database in the file using the
|
|
|
|
|
DB_ORDERCHKONLY flag.

</p>
|
|
|
|

<p>
|

When this flag is specified, a <span class="bold"><strong>database</strong></span> parameter should also be specified,

indicating the database in the physical file which is to be checked.
