What Should I do if I have experienced data loss?
Expidata Server Recovery recommend that the database server is stopped immediately, from here free advise should be sought to help maximise the chances of database and SQL recovery.
If you suspect a file system corruption or media degradation (bad sectors) it is important that the following is observed:
• Stop the database server immediately!
• File system utilities including Chkdsk, FSCK or similar should not be ran under any circumstances until a full sector by sector (bitwise) clone has been made – vendor provided tools can actually corrupt and destroy your data, seek professional advise first. Even running these tools in read only mode can cause further problems if media degradation is the underlying cause.
• If system backups cannot be taken, then attempt to backup the important files contained therein – if this process fails it could be indicitive of a disk, volume or array problem.
• Make notes of the exact database software including versions.
