.SH "NAME"
innochecksum \- offline InnoDB file checksum utility
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBinnochecksum\ [\fR\fB\fIoptions\fR\fR\fB]\ \fR\fB\fIfile_name\fR\fR\ 'u
\fBinnochecksum [\fR\fB\fIoptions\fR\fR\fB] \fR\fB\fIfile_name\fR\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBinnochecksum\fR
prints checksums for
InnoDB
files\&. This tool reads an
InnoDB
tablespace file, calculates the checksum for each page, compares the calculated checksum to the stored checksum, and reports mismatches, which indicate damaged pages\&. It was originally developed to speed up verifying the integrity of tablespace files after power outages but can also be used after file copies\&. Because checksum mismatches will cause
InnoDB
to deliberately shut down a running server, it can be preferable to use this tool rather than waiting for a server in production usage to encounter the damaged pages\&.
.PP
\fBinnochecksum\fR
cannot be used on tablespace files that the server already has open\&. For such files, you should use
CHECK TABLE
to check tables within the tablespace\&.
.PP
If checksum mismatches are found, you would normally restore the tablespace from backup or start the server and attempt to use
\fBmysqldump\fR
to make a backup of the tables within the tablespace\&.
.PP
Invoke
\fBinnochecksum\fR
like this:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
shell> \fBinnochecksum [\fR\fB\fIoptions\fR\fR\fB] \fR\fB\fIfile_name\fR\fR
.fi
.if n \{\

.PP
\fBinnochecksum\fR
supports the following options\&. For options that refer to page numbers, the numbers are zero\-based\&.
