Kathey Marsden created DERBY-6355:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Data Integrity guidelines should include not deleting or otherwise tampering with files under the database directory
                 Key: DERBY-6355
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6355

The page for maintaining data integrity: https://builds.apache.org/job/Derby-docs/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/trunk/out/adminguide/cadmindbintegrity.html  should also warn against touching any files under the database directory.

Maybe we could paraphrase   from the README. file:
# *************************************************************************

# *** FILES IN THIS DIRECTORY AND SUBDIRECTORIES CONSTITUTE A DERBY     ***
# *** DATABASE, WHICH INCLUDES THE DATA (USER AND SYSTEM) AND THE       ***
# *** FILES NECESSARY FOR DATABASE RECOVERY.                            ***
# *** EDITING, ADDING, OR DELETING ANY OF THESE FILES MAY CAUSE DATA    ***
# *** CORRUPTION AND LEAVE THE DATABASE IN A NON-RECOVERABLE STATE.     ***
