Hi,
I have been reading about how information are stored in an exchange database.
I know that First two pages contains the header which gives all the information about the database and the real data is stored after the 2nd page ie Physical page no. 3 is logical page no. 1 and each page maintains its physical page no. and logical page no. and CHECKSUM.
I am confused about what checksum actually does in the page, what is its role and how it helps to maintain the database, as per my knowledge if there's a bad checksum then exchange will start throwing -1018 errors.
Please explain about CHECKSUM and its features.
Any help would be appreciated.
