CKPOINT and Restart

The CKPOINT file provides a location for batch programs to store recovered data. A record is automatically created each time a program is executed, and automatically deleted upon the successful completion of the program. If the program must be restarted, the data stored in the CKPOINT record can be used to determine the point from which the program must resume. The field within the CKPOINT file, named CKP-RESTART-INFO, provides storage for this program-specific data. To delete the CKPOINT file, see Lawson Administration: Server Setup and Maintenance.
