SYMPTOM(s):
Error: SYSTEM ERROR: rlmemchk tx_count: note=<number> ptran=<number>. (863)
Error in log file during the Crash Recovery Process
System crash (DB Down situation) or power failure
CAUSE:
The error could be sent during the crash recovery process and indicates corruption in the before-image (BI) file.
FIX:
- Restore the previous backup
and,
- whenever is possible, roll forward the after image files.
If the backup file is not a feasible option, see the notes below.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Forcing the access of the database using proutil -C truncate bi -F as described above will compromise the physical and logical integrity of your database. Please refer to Progress knowledge base entry 14115 for further discussions on problems related to the usage of proutil -C truncate bi -F.
In this error situation the before image file of the current database is compromised so in order to have a safe recovery for the database, restore the previous backup and, whenever is possible, roll forward the after image files.
If the backup file is not a feasible option and you need to extract data "as is" from the current database you may force the entrance of the database using proutil db-name -C truncate bi -F, ignoring the currently before image file and skipping the crash recover process.
