|
|
<div><p>Checksum protection guards against data loss on any
|
|
disk in an auxiliary storage pool (ASP).</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>The checksum software maintains a coded copy of ASP data in special
|
|
checksum data areas within that ASP. Any changes made to permanent objects
|
|
in a checksum protected ASP are automatically maintained in the checksum data
|
|
of the checksum set. If any single disk unit in a checksum set is lost, the
|
|
server reconstructs the contents of the lost device using the checksum and
|
|
the data on the remaining functional units of the set. In this way, if any
|
|
one of the units fails, its contents can be recovered. This reconstructed
|
|
data reflects the most up-to-date information that was on the disk at the
|
|
time of the failure. Checksum protection can affect server performance significantly.
|
|
In a distributed relational database, this might be a concern.</p>
