Schedule DB Consistency Check

Specify whether to check the Derby database consistency periodically.

When the Delegation Server detects corruption, it sends a system log to the Core Server as a system error if [System Error] is enabled on the [Server Notifications] tab in [Delegation Server Settings] in [System].

  • [Interval]:  Specify either hours or minutes. The range can be between 1 to 999 hours or from 10 to 999 minutes.

  • [Auto-rebuild]: When this option is selected, if corruption is detected, the database is deleted and the Delegation server is restarted. The corrupt database is rebuilt automatically. If this option is not selected, you must restart the Delegation Server manually to recover.

    The Delegation Server may not be able to check consistency or send system logs to the Core Server if the Derby DB is corrupted seriously.
