Stefan Seelmann commented on DIRSERVER-2113:
--------------------------------------------

I wanted to integrate a "repair" action into Studio.

I noticed that the UberjarMain.repair() method actually starts the server and 
then repairs the partition and then keeps the server running. I wonder why it 
is required to start the server before repairing the partitions. And if it's 
required I think it may be a good idea to stop the server afterwards. Otherwise 
I think it's confusing when calling repair but the server keeps running.

> Kiran has developped a small tool that fix a corrupted JDBM database : the 
> {{partition-plumber}} (see 
> https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/sandbox/kayyagari/partition-plumber/).
> This is the only way we can get back on our feet when the database gets 
> corrupted (if and only if the MasterTable is not itself corrupted, something 
> that happens quite rarely).
> I suggest strongly we inject this smart tool in the server so that a user 
> with a corrupted database can repair it by starting the server with a special 
> option (something like apacheds -repair).
> That would save our users a lot of pain (like reloading the full database, 
> assuming they have a recent backup...)
