Database recovery process

A successful recovery of these types of files requires a verification of the storage device or system and the file system that contains the database.

Data recovery steps

Description

Stage 1

Target LUN, iSCSI* LUN identification and low level DAS/RAID verification at the storage block level.

Stage 2

Volume file system indices are checked for metadata-to-data stream integrity.**

Stage 3

Database file integrity is checked.

Stage 4

Database listing of all recoverable tables and rows is completed.

 

*iSCSI LUNs are reliant upon the SAN's internal file system to manage the data. Data loss within this type of logical storage may require access to the SAN's volume where the iSCSI files are stored.

**Target volumes that reside within virtual disk files are dependent upon the hypervisor's datastore file system to manage the data. Data loss at the hypervisor volume level or within the guest's virtual disk file may require additional engineering effort to complete the evaluation.
