Abstract
Methods and computer-readable media for maintaining transactional link-level consistency between a database and a file system. A file system change is logged in a record of a database log and a file corresponding to the file system change is created in a file system folder. During a restart recovery process, an analysis operation and a conditional redo operation are performed based on the database log, and a conditional redo operation and an undo operation are performed based on the files in the file system folder. An undo operation is then performed based on the database log.
