If it is the newest BQ, there should be
/usr/sausalito/db4/bin/db_checkpoint. This wouldn't be in a normal PATH,
so you would have to add '/usr/sausalito/db4/bin/' to that command.
There is also an script for any runlevel, /etc/rc.d/init.d/dbrecover
(start|stop), that uses this tool.

Thanks Rusty, but....
Strange we are running the latest BlueQuartz/Centos (as far as I can
tell anyway - we use yum update to update)
We don't have db_checkpoint installed which package is it part of, I've
just looked at a genuine Raq550 which does have db_checkpoint installed
and also interestingly the db directory is fairly empty on one
log.number file there
- is this a bug in Bluequartz or Centos? looks like BQ as I'm running
pwdb-0.61.1-9BQ17 - is there a newer version - is db_checkpoint not
installed?
Note to anyone else - go check your /var partition it could be filling
up if so find a way to clear it before mail stops!
Regards
Gavin
