INNOCHECKSUM(1) MySQL Database System INNOCHECKSUM(1)
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 5.7.2,
innochecksum supports files greater than 2GB in size. Previously, innochecksum only
supported files up to 2GB in size.
As of MySQL 5.7.2, innochecksum supports 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. Attempting to run
innochecksum on a tablespace that the server already has open will result in an "Unable to
lock file" error.
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
innochecksum Options.PP innochecksum supports the following options. For options that
refer to page numbers, the numbers are zero-based.
o --help, -?
Displays command line help. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --help
o --info, -I
Synonym for --help. Displays command line help. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --info
o --version, -V
Displays version information. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --version
o --verbose, -v
Verbose mode; prints a progress indicator to the log file every five seconds. In order
for the progress indicator to be printed, the log file must be specified using the
--log option. To turn on verbose mode, run:
shell> innochecksum --verbose
To turn off verbose mode, run:
shell> innochecksum --verbose=FALSE
The --verbose option and --log option can be specified at the same time. For example:
shell> innochecksum --verbose --log=/var/lib/mysql/test/logtest.txt
To locate the progress indicator information in the log file, you can perform the
following search:
shell> cat ./logtest.txt | grep -i "okay"
The progress indicator information in the log file appears similar to the following:
page 1663 okay: 2.863% done
page 8447 okay: 14.537% done
page 13695 okay: 23.568% done
page 18815 okay: 32.379% done
page 23039 okay: 39.648% done
page 28351 okay: 48.789% done
page 33023 okay: 56.828% done
page 37951 okay: 65.308% done
page 44095 okay: 75.881% done
page 49407 okay: 85.022% done
page 54463 okay: 93.722% done
...
o --count, -c
Print a count of the number of pages in the file and exit. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --count ../data/test/tab1.ibd
o --start-page=num, -s num
Start at this page number. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --start-page=600 ../data/test/tab1.ibd
or:
shell> innochecksum -s 600 ../data/test/tab1.ibd
o --end-page=num, -e num
End at this page number. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --end-page=700 ../data/test/tab1.ibd
or:
shell> innochecksum --p 700 ../data/test/tab1.ibd
o --page=num, -p num
Check only this page number. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --page=701 ../data/test/tab1.ibd
o --strict-check, -C
Specify a strict checksum algorithm. Options include innodb, crc32, and none.
In this example, the innodb checksum algorithm is specified:
shell> innochecksum --strict-check=innodb ../data/test/tab1.ibd
In this example, the crc32 checksum algorithm is specified:
shell> innochecksum -C crc32 ../data/test/tab1.ibd
The following conditions apply:
o If you do not specify the --strict-check option, innochecksum validates against
innodb, crc32 and none.
o If you specify the none option, only checksums generated by none are allowed.
o If you specify the innodb option, only checksums generated by innodb are allowed.
o If you specify the crc32 option, only checksums generated by crc32 are allowed.
o --no-check, -n
Ignore the checksum verification when rewriting a checksum. This option may only be
used with the innochecksum --write option. If the --write option is not specified,
innochecksum will terminate.
In this example, an innodb checksum is rewritten to replace an invalid checksum:
shell> innochecksum --no-check --write innodb ../data/test/tab1.ibd
o --allow-mismatches, -a
The maximum number of checksum mismatches allowed before innochecksum terminates. The
default setting is 0. If --allow-mismatches=N, where N>=0, N mismatches are permitted
and innochecksum terminates at N+1. When --allow-mismatches is set to 0, innochecksum
terminates on the first checksum mismatch.
In this example, an existing innodb checksum is rewritten to set --allow-mismatches to
1.
shell> innochecksum --allow-mismatches=1 --write innodb ../data/test/tab1.ibd
With --allow-mismatches set to 1, if there is a mismatch at page 600 and another at
page 700 on a file with 1000 pages, the checksum is updated for pages 0-599 and
601-699. Because --allow-mismatches is set to 1, the checksum tolerates the first
mismatch and terminates on the second mismatch, leaving page 600 and pages 700-999
unchanged.
o --write=name, -w num
Rewrite a checksum. When rewriting an invalid checksum, the --no-check option must be
used together with the --write option. The --no-check option tells innochecksum to
ignore verification of the invalid checksum. You do not have to specify the --no-check
option if the current checksum is valid.
An algorithm must be specified when using the --write option. Possible values for the
--write option are:
o innodb: A checksum calculated in software, using the original algorithm from
InnoDB.
o crc32: A checksum calculated using the crc32 algorithm, possibly done with a
hardware assist.
o none: A constant number.
The --write option rewrites entire pages to disk. If the new checksum is identical to
the existing checksum, the new checksum is not written to disk in order to minimize
I/O.
innochecksum obtains an exclusive lock when the --write option is used.
In this example, a crc32 checksum is written for tab1.ibd:
shell> innochecksum -w crc32 ../data/test/tab1.ibd
In this example, a crc32 checksum is rewritten to replace an invalid crc32 checksum:
shell> innochecksum --no-check --write crc32 ../data/test/tab1.ibd
o --page-type-summary, -S
Display a count of each page type in a tablespace. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --page-type-summary ../data/test/tab1.ibd
Sample output for --page-type-summary:
File::../data/test/tab1.ibd
================PAGE TYPE SUMMARY==============
#PAGE_COUNT PAGE_TYPE
===============================================
2 Index page
0 Undo log page
1 Inode page
0 Insert buffer free list page
2 Freshly allocated page
1 Insert buffer bitmap
0 System page
0 Transaction system page
1 File Space Header
0 Extent descriptor page
0 BLOB page
0 Compressed BLOB page
0 Other type of page
===============================================
Additional information:
Undo page type: 0 insert, 0 update, 0 other
Undo page state: 0 active, 0 cached, 0 to_free, 0 to_purge, 0 prepared, 0 other
o --page-type-dump, -D
Dump the page type information for each page in a tablespace to stderr or stdout.
Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --page-type-dump=/tmp/a.txt ../data/test/tab1.ibd
o --log, -l
Log output for the innochecksum tool. A log file name must be provided. Log output
contains checksum values for each tablespace page. For uncompressed tables, LSN values
are also provided. The --log replaces the --debug option, which was available in
earlier releases. Example usage:
shell> innochecksum --log=/tmp/log.txt ../data/test/tab1.ibd
or:
shell> innochecksum -l /tmp/log.txt ../data/test/tab1.ibd
o - option.
Specify the - option to read from standard input. If the - option is missing when
"read from standard in" is expected, innochecksum will output innochecksum usage
information indicating that the "-" option was omitted. Example usages:
shell> cat t1.ibd | innochecksum -
In this example, innochecksum writes the crc32 checksum algorithm to a.ibd without
changing the original t1.ibd file.
shell> cat t1.ibd | innochecksum --write=crc32 - > a.ibd
Running innochecksum on Multiple User-defined Tablespace Files.PP The following examples
demonstrate how to run innochecksum on multiple user-defined tablespace files (.ibd
files).
Run innochecksum for all tablespace (.ibd) files in the "test" database:
shell> innochecksum ./data/test/*.ibd
Run innochecksum for all tablespace files (.ibd files) that have a file name starting with
"t":
shell> innochecksum ./data/test/t*.ibd
Run innochecksum for all tablespace files (.ibd files) in the data directory:
shell> innochecksum ./data/*/*.ibd
Note
Running innochecksum on multiple user-defined tablespace files is not supported on
Windows operating systems, as Windows shells such as cmd.exe do not support glob
pattern expansion. On Windows systems, innochecksum must be run separately for each
user-defined tablespace file. For example:
cmd> innochecksum.exe t1.ibd
cmd> innochecksum.exe t2.ibd
cmd> innochecksum.exe t3.ibd
Running innochecksum on Multiple System Tablespace Files.PP By default, there is only one
InnoDB system tablespace file (ibdata1) but multiple files for the system tablespace can
be defined using the innodb_data_file_path option. In the following example, three files
for the system tablespace are defined using the innodb_data_file_path option: ibdata1,
ibdata2, and ibdata3.
shell> ./bin/mysqld --no-defaults --innodb-data-file-path="ibdata1:10M;ibdata2:10M;ibdata3:10M:autoextend"
The three files (ibdata1, ibdata2, and ibdata3) form one logical system tablespace. To run
innochecksum on multiple files that form one logical system tablespace, innochecksum
requires the - option to read tablespace files in from standard input, which is equivalent
to concatenating multiple files to create one single file. For the example provided above,
the following innochecksum command would be used:
shell> cat ibdata* | innochecksum -
Refer to the innochecksum options information for more information about the "-" option.
Note
Running innochecksum on multiple files in the same tablespace is not supported on
Windows operating systems, as Windows shells such as cmd.exe do not support glob
pattern expansion. On Windows systems, innochecksum must be run separately for each
system tablespace file. For example:
cmd> innochecksum.exe ibdata1
cmd> innochecksum.exe ibdata2
cmd> innochecksum.exe ibdata3
