Vault Consistency Toolkit

Certain database inconsistencies may appear over time in a Meridian Enterprise vault. Inconsistencies may also occur when many deletions have been performed after documents have been purged from the vault. Some of these inconsistencies may lead to document content being detached from the database. The Vault Consistency Toolkit is provided to repair these inconsistencies. The Vault Consistency Toolkit consists of the Vault Consistency Wizard (VCW) and the Stream Recovery Wizard.

The Vault Consistency Wizard (VCW) analyzes a vault’s database for inconsistencies, can optionally repair any inconsistencies found, and can optionally reclaim storage space used by deleted objects. This process places a high demand for resources on the server and can take a significant amount of time to complete, depending on the size of the database.

The Stream Recovery Wizard can recover orphaned document content files after the VCW has been run. The recovered files can then be examined and attached to documents in the vault, imported as new documents, or deleted if they are obsolete.
