21 * Journal ($LogFile) organization:
23 * Two restart areas present in the first two pages (restart pages, one restart
24 * area in each page). When the volume is dismounted they should be identical,
25 * except for the update sequence array which usually has a different update
28 * These are followed by log records organized in pages headed by a log record
29 * header going up to log file size. Not all pages contain log records when a
30 * volume is first formatted, but as the volume ages, all records will be used.
31 * When the log file fills up, the records at the beginning are purged (by
32 * modifying the oldest_lsn to a higher value presumably) and writing begins
33 * at the beginning of the file. Effectively, the log file is viewed as a
36 * NOTE: Windows NT, 2000, and XP all use log file version 1.1 but they accept
37 * versions <= 1.x, including 0.-1. (Yes, that is a minus one in there!) We
38 * probably only want to support 1.1 as this seems to be the current version
39 * and we don't know how that differs from the older versions. The only
40 * exception is if the journal is clean as marked by the two restart pages
41 * then it doesn't matter whether we are on an earlier version. We can just
42 * reinitialize the logfile and start again with version 1.1.
