The <span class="command"><strong>db_log_verify</strong></span> utility verifies the log files of a specific database environment.
|

This utility verifies a specific range of log records, or changed log records of a specific database.

If the application(s) that use the environment make use of
|
||
the <a class="xref" href="envset_lg_dir.html" title="DB_ENV->set_lg_dir()">DB_ENV->set_lg_dir()</a>
|
||
method, then in order for this utility to run correctly,
|
||
you need a
|
||
<a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a>
|
||
file which sets the proper paths using the
|

<a class="xref" href="set_lg_dir_parameter.html" title="set_lg_dir">set_lg_dir</a>
|
||
configuration parameter.
|

</p>

The options are as follows:

<li>
|
||
<p>
|

<span class="bold"><strong>-C</strong></span>

</p>
|

|

<p>
|

|

<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-c</strong></span>
|

</p>
|

<p>
|

Specify whether to continue the verification after an error is detected.
|

If not specified, the verification stops when the first error is detected.

</p>
|

<li>
|

<p>
|

<span class="bold"><strong>-D</strong></span>
|

</p>
|

<p>

Specify a database name. Only log records related to this database are verified.

</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-d</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Specify a database file name. Only log records related this database file are verified.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-e</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|

<p>
|

Specify the ending log record by lsn.

</li>
|

<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-h</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|

Specify a home directory of the database environment whose log is to be verified.
|

</p>
|

</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-H</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Specify a home directory for this utility to create a temporarily database
|
||
environment to store runtime data during the verification.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
|
||
It is an error to specify the same directory as the -h option. If this directory is not specified, all
|
||
temporary databases created during the verification will be in-memory, which is not
|
||
a problem if the log files to verify are not huge.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>

<li>
|

<p>
|

<span class="bold"><strong>-N</strong></span>

</p>
|

<p>
|
||
Do not acquire shared region mutexes while running. Other problems,
|
||
such as potentially fatal errors in Berkeley DB, are ignored as
|
||
well. This option is intended only for debugging errors, and should
|
||
not be used under any other circumstances.

</li>

<li>
|
||
<p>
|

<span class="bold"><strong>-P</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Specify an environment password. Although Berkeley DB utilities
|
||
overwrite password strings as soon as possible, there may be
|
||
a window of vulnerability on systems where unprivileged users can see
|
||
command-line arguments or where utilities are not able to overwrite
|
||
the memory containing the command-line arguments.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-s</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Specify the starting log record by time. The time range specified is not precise because the lsn of the most recent time point is used as the starting lsn.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-V</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|

Write the library version number to the standard output and exit.

</p>
|

</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-v</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Enable verbose mode to display verbose output during the verification process.
|

</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<span class="bold"><strong>-z</strong></span>
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Specify the ending log record by time. The time range specified is not precise because the lsn of the most recent time point is used as the ending lsn.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>
|
||
To specify a range of log records, you must provide
|
||
either an lsn range or a time range. You can neither specify both nor specify an lsn and a time as a range.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If the log footprint is over several megabytes, specify a home
|
||
directory and a big cache size for log verification internal use. Else, the process'
|
||
private memory may be exhausted before the verification completes.</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The <span class="command"><strong>db_log_verify</strong></span> utility does not perform the
|
||
locking function, even in Berkeley DB environments that are configured with a
|
||
locking subsystem. All errors are written to stderr, and all normal and verbose messages
|
||
are written to stdout.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The <span class="command"><strong>db_log_verify</strong></span> utility can be used with a Berkeley DB environment (as
|
||
described for the <span class="bold"><strong>-h</strong></span> option, the
|
||
environment variable <span class="bold"><strong>DB_HOME</strong></span>).
|
||
|
||
To avoid environment corruption when using a
|
||
Berkeley DB environment, <span class="command"><strong>db_log_verify</strong></span> must be given the chance
|
||
to detach from the environment and exit gracefully. For the
|
||
<span class="command"><strong>db_log_verify</strong></span> utility to release all environment resources and exit, send
|
||
an interrupt signal (SIGINT) to it.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The <span class="command"><strong>db_log_verify</strong></span> utility returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
