MDF and LDF Last Modified Date changes with each reboot

  • I would just like to confirm that the MDF and LDF files in my databases should be updated with the last date the server was rebooted.  And if someone could explain to me why this happens I would appreciate it.  Thanks.

  • I believe yes.

    When you shutdown your server, all services are stopped. at which point sql server "Closes" the mdf and ldf files.

    apon reboot, sql server basically "Opens" the files again, and keeps them open until the next service stop, or reboot.

     

  • Thank you, that makes sense.
