IBSurgeon FirstAID - license for 10 databases

FirstAID

IBSurgeon FirstAID is the tool that can automatically diagnose and repair corrupted InterBase or Firebird databases - it can repair corruptions that neither gbak nor gfix can handle.

It uses its own layer for low-level database access without using the InterBase or Firebird engine, so it can perform real "surgical" operations and repair your database when all other standard mechanisms cannot.

There are 2 modules in FirstAID: FirstAID Direct and FirstAID Extractor. FirstAID Direct fixes corruption in-place: it deletes or recreates missed links. FirstAID Extractor uses several system tables to decrypt users data and export all available data to the new database.

IBBackupSurgeon - 2 wokplaces

IBBackupSurgeon

IBBackupSurgeon is a tool that can be used to read and save data from corrupted Firebird or InterBase backup files (gbk, fbk, ibk). To access corrupted backup files it uses its own direct access layer. With IBBackupSurgeon tool a user can browse a backup file, select tables you need and then extract them to a new or existing database.

IBBackupSurgeon uses its own access layer for reading backups of InterBase and Firebird databases. It is able to fetch data from corrupted backups even if the most of backup file is lost.

Moreover, it can use metadata definitions from healthy backup and use them to retrieve data from backup with damaged metadata. This is a critical feature in case of serious hardware or media corruptions.

IBBackupSurgeon allows reading and extracting all metadata of database, including text of stored procedures, triggers, computed fields and so on.

IBUndelete - 2 workplaces

IBUndelete

IBUndelete is the only tool which can undelete occasionally deleted records in InterBase or Firebird databases. It uses IBSurgeon core engine for direct work with data inside database. IBUndelete searches for deleted record versions and turn them back into actual versions
