Aborting Reorganizations

To recover from a failed instantiation, you can restore from a prior database backup and then roll forward through available journals. See also "Aborting an Incomplete Reorganization", in Chapter 3 of the JADE Development Environment User’s Guide.

Alternatively, you can abandon a failed instantiation by performing the following actions.

1. Abort the database reorganization by running a non-GUI jadclient application to execute JadeReorgApp from the command line.

   jadclient path=database-path
             ini=jade-initialization-file
             [server=multiUser|singleUser|readOnlyUser]
             schema=RootSchema
             app=JadeReorgApp
             startAppParameters
             action=abortReorg

   For more details, see "Performing a Reorganization" or "Reorganizing the Database from the Command Line", in Chapter 3 of the JADE Development Environment User’s Guide.

2. Unversion schemas, by using the jadloadb batch Jade Schema Load utility or the JadeSchemaLoader application. (For details, see the JADE Schema Load User’s Guide.)

For simplicity, you can perform the first step unconditionally, even when there is no reorganization to abort.
