NAME
innochecksum - offline InnoDB file checksum utility
SYNOPSIS
-
innochecksum [options] file_name
DESCRIPTION
innochecksum
prints checksums for
InnoDB
files. This tool reads an
InnoDB
tablespace file, calculates the checksum for each page, compares the calculated checksum to the stored checksum, and reports mismatches, which indicate damaged pages. It was originally developed to speed up verifying the integrity of tablespace files after power outages but can also be used after file copies. Because checksum mismatches cause
InnoDB
to deliberately shut down a running server, it may be preferable to use this tool rather than waiting for an in-production server to encounter the damaged pages. As of MySQL 5.6.16,
innochecksum
supports files greater than 2GB in size. Previously,
innochecksum
only supported files up to 2GB in size.
innochecksum
does not support tablespaces that contain compressed pages.
innochecksum
cannot be used on tablespace files that the server already has open. For such files, you should use
CHECK TABLE
to check tables within the tablespace.
If checksum mismatches are found, you would normally restore the tablespace from backup or start the server and attempt to use
mysqldump
to make a backup of the tables within the tablespace.
Invoke
innochecksum
like this:
-
shell> innochecksum [options] file_name
