| Hi, Whenever I restore a database, I see a dbname.ckp file created where the dbname.mdf is being restored. What is this .ckp file and why is it created? Then it is gone after the restore is completed. Does it have something to do with checkpoint event?Thanks,Sarat.**To be intoxicated is to feel sophisticated, but not be able to say it.** |

| It's a restart-checkpoint file. I believe it is used in case the restore is cancelled or fails so that it can be undone.Tara |
