InnoDB undo tablespace size is wrong

Production Risk

High — Incorrect undo tablespace size can prevent server startup or cause transaction failures.

Why it happens
  1. 1Undo tablespace file was manually modified or truncated.
  2. 2The innodb_undo_tablespaces or innodb_undo_log_truncate settings conflict with existing files.
  3. 3Disk failure or partial write left the undo file in an inconsistent state.

Fix 1

Check undo tablespace sizing parameters

Check undo tablespace sizing parameters
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'innodb_undo%';

Why this works

Verify innodb_undo_tablespaces and innodb_max_undo_log_size match the expected values.

Fix 2

Restore undo tablespace from backup

Why this works

If the file is corrupted, restore from a clean backup and restart the server.
