22.5.1 Finding Berkeley Database Tools

Many of the troubleshooting steps you will want to take require having access to the Berkeley database utility programs. While a version of these utility programs is available in the Calendar Server bundle, they are not supported. You might want to obtain more information directly from Sleepycat Software (http://www.oracle.com/database/berkeley-db/index.html.

This section covers the following topics:

The following table lists some of the commonly used Berkeley database tools (utility programs).

Berkeley Database Tools	Description
`db_archive`	Writes the path names of log files that are no longer in use to the standard output, one pathname per line.
`db_checkpoint`	A daemon process that monitors the database log and periodically calls the checkpoint routine to checkpoint it.
`db_deadlock`	Traverses the database environment lock region and aborts a lock request each time it detects a deadlock or a lock request that has timed out.
`db_dump`	Writes the specified file to standard output in a flat-text format understood by the `db_load` utility.
`db_load`	Reads from the standard input and loads it into the database file specified. If the file does not already exist it creates it.
`db_printlog`	Debugging utility that dumps log files in human-readable format.
`db_recover`	Restores the database to a consistent state after an unexpected application, database, or system failure.
`db_stat`	Displays statistics for the database environment.
`db_verify`	Verifies the structure of one or more files and the databases they contain.
