    In simple recovery a checkpoint truncates the log.

    And even then there are drivers behind this, it won't necessarily truncate on every checkpoint

  • RE: Backup to clear the transaction log

    Full backups do not truncate the transaction log in any recovery model.

    In full and bulk-logged recovery a log backup truncates the log.

    In simple recovery a checkpoint truncates the log.

  • RE: Master database to single mode

    That's not a SQL Server error, so you're doing something somewhere else wrong and getting an OS error.

    Go through the link I posted, check each step carefully.

    No, the process for restoring master is to put the *server* into single user mode, not the database.
