certifyFile

certifyFile(): Integer;

The certifyFile method of the JadeDbFilePartition class initiates an online certification of a single physical database partition; that is, it checks the database integrity. The parent map file must first be converted to read-only.

This method returns the number of errors that were detected when certifying the database partition.

The certifyFile method executes on a persistent server node, and is implemented and executed by the physical database engine. For details, see "Using the Certify Files Command", in Chapter 1 of the Database Administration Guide.

An exception is raised if the database partition was not located or there was an error accessing a database partition control file.
