Subject stripped GDB file
Author Kotala Zdeněk
Hi All,

Our customer had corrupted GDB file. I found after analysis that
GDB file is stripped. I rescued the file but can I prevent this situation by
configuration?


Now I describe what's happend:

1) Some employee plugged heater into server electrical circuit :)
2) All server/UPS went down immediately without safe poweroff :(
3) After boot the file was stripped.

Is it problem in FB (0.94/W2K) or OS (W2K/NTFS)?
I mean that is problem in filesystem implementation.

4) I ran IBSurgeon to analyze how much is file corrupted (6 pages missed)
5) Gfix repair some problem but not all
6) I extracted data and metada and recreate new database file
and repair logical constrains.

Is it ideal method or exists some better?


Thanks
Zdenek
