MongoDB::repair

Repairs and compacts this database

Description

public array MongoDB::repair ([ bool $preserve_cloned_files = FALSE [, bool $backup_original_files = FALSE ]] )

This creates a fresh copy of all database data. It will remove any corrupt data and compact and large stretches of free space it finds. This is a very slow operation on a large database.

This is usually run from the shell or the command line, not the driver.

It is equivalent to the function:

<?php

public function repair() {
    return $this->command(array('repairDatabase' => 1));
}

?>

Parameters

preserve_cloned_files

If cloned files should be kept if the repair fails.

backup_original_files

If original files should be backed up.

Return Values

Returns db response.
