ERROR: Extents overlap - URGENT
Posted in 1998
Hi!
Executing command:
$oncheck -ce
produces the following result:
-------------------------
Primary chunk /informix/dbspaces/pstntapdbs12, offset 0, size 680000 is
down.
Primary chunk /informix/dbspaces/pstntapdbs12, offset 0, size 680000 is
down.
ERROR: Extents overlap
ERROR: Extents overlap
-------------------------
First, how many errors are below? Two, four or one? There isn't any error
number.
In the Administrators Guide, there is written, that when I have "down chunk"
which doesn't contains logical logs and ... "database server can continue to
operate, but cannot write to or read from the down chunk or any other chunks
in the dbspace of that chunk." But the situation is that I have a result for
the query, which data are in this chunk. I found the tables in the chunk
using "oncheck -pe". So, my "SELECT" returns me results without any errors,
hence I can read from this chunk. In my "online.log" there isn't anything
related that chunk is down, when I "oninit" Informix. Only "oninit" reports,
that the chunk is down on the standard output when I initialize Informix.
Is the only what I can do is to do a dbspace restore from the backup
archive? The data in this dbspace aren't critical and doesn't depend from
other data.
Does my unloaded data are correct? (UNLOAD TO ... SELECT * FROM
table_in_down_chunk)
Thank you in advance!
Best regards,
Milen.
