• Gail,

    I always enjoy reading your posts and blogs. It is awesome that you are so willing to share your knowledge and experience.

    One of the items you noted is

    Truncate table, for example, only logs the page de-allocations (as does drop table), but since that is enough information to fully redo the truncate table, that is classified as ‘fully logged’

    Now I know that Truncate Table, like Create Table or Alter Table, are Data Definition Language (DDL) and I always thought that they were stand-alone operations and could not be redone or undone.

    Now I know at the very least they are logged for "Redo" operations, but am I correct in thinking that there is still no "undo" short of completing a point-in-time recovery before the DDL operation was run?

    Regards, Irish
