Abstract
Embodiments are directed to implementing a transitional redo phase to allow pre-redo phase data access and to determining which data pages including unprocessed transactions are to be processed during a transitional redo phase. In an embodiment, a computer system initiates an analysis phase of a database recovery that scans a database transaction log and builds a dirty page table that includes pages corresponding to unprocessed data transactions. The computer system determines from the dirty page table which pages are to be processed during the transitional redo phase, before the final redo phase. The computer system processes the determined pages during the transitional redo phase, before the final redo phase is reached and, upon completion of the system transaction undo phase, makes available those pages that were processed during the transitional redo phase, as well as those database pages that are not scheduled for processing during the final redo phase.
