Good morning!

I have run into this problem today as well. A SQL statement "DELETE FROM
<table>" resulted in '[-9028]: System error: BD Bad file'. Now, I have
to admit, I am not as familiar with MaxDB/SAP DB as I am with some other
systems. When I read the instructions below, "You should build a second
system ...", does this mean I need to re-install MaxDB, or just create a
new instance within my current installation of MaxDB?

Also, the comment "Your select's do not seam to access this page but one
day they will and then the database will stop." - please clarify. If a
select tries to access a bad page, will that query fail and return an
error, or will the entire database instance go down?

Thanks for the excellent product and timely support!

Respectfully,
Brice Ruth

Hello Christoph,

BAD PAGE means that you have corrupted data pages in the system.
Your select's do not seam to access this page but one day they will and
then the database will stop.

You should build a second system with an older data backup of your
original database.
This second system you should check with "CHECK DATA EXTENDED".
If no errors occur you can use this older data backup again plus your
log backups from the original system and build up a shadow system.
If errors occur you can use the next older complete data backup.
If you do not have an older correct data backup you have to determine
the table to which the bad page belongs. You can do this with CHECK DATA
and SEL FROM ROOTS.

Kind regards
Uwe
