Automatic recovery is activated if you start
this case, when the server opens a
or whether the open count variable for the table is not 0 and you are running the server with external
locking disabled. If either of these conditions is true, the following happens:
• The server checks the table for errors.
• If the server finds an error, it tries to do a fast table repair (with sorting and without re-creating the
data file).
• If the repair fails because of an error in the data file (for example, a duplicate-key error), the server
tries again, this time re-creating the data file.
• If the repair still fails, the server tries once more with the old repair option method (write row by row
without sorting). This method should be able to repair any type of error and has low disk space
requirements.
