ccmdb check

This topic contains information about the ccmdb check command.

Synopsis

ccmdb check database_path [-d] [-c]

Description and uses

Use the ccmdb check command to verify the integrity of a database.

The command reports any problems that are found. If a problem is found, contact IBM® Rational® Software Support.

Use the ccmdb check command to check your database daily. To extend the availability of your database, use the ccmdb check -c option during the week. On the weekend, use the ccmdb check command without any options to provide full checking on a weekly basis.

Databases rarely fail an integrity check, but if failure does occur, detect it quickly so that you can correct the problem immediately. Therefore, run the ccmdb check program daily, on each database, and after rebooting the system following a hardware failure or operating system crash.

The database is locked during checks, which prevents users from changing data in the Rational Synergy database while a check is being performed. Users receive a message that the database is locked when they attempt to start a new session while a check is in progress.

You must run this command on the database server, as user ccm_root.

For more information, see Performing database integrity checks.
