This was extracted using the tool from:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6136

Mike, I believe your idea about retrieving all from the index when selecting 
individually is probably true.

I believe the corrupt occurred when bug

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6879

was hit and one or more transaction log files were removed.  Although it is 
pointed out that doing so can and probably will cause corruption, when you have 
a 500+ GB database with 18K transaction log files to process at startup which 
will take multiple days to complete and the most recent backup also backed up 
this condition, it was unavoidable ;)

Using the tool from

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6136

I was able to dump the data, destroy the table, re-format and re-import the 
data with SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE.  From that I was able to determine 
what appeared to been in progress and what the corruption was related to 
(deletion of various rows) and was able to manually cleanup references to those 
rows.

So the tool was a life saver in this case.  I did run into an issue with it in 
that it tries to access conglomerate “c470.dat” this did not exist and this 
mapped to SYSUSERS in other databases.  This is old database that has been 
through many upgrades of Derby on it.  I was able to copy that conglomerate 
from another newly created database just to let the tool continue which it did.

A possible enhancement of the tool would be to output the data in a format that 
can be imported by SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE.  I was able to use Perl to 
reformat the data for import but not having to do so would be beneficial.

I truly appreciate all of the help and suggestions!
