Tracks how far Exchange has progressed in writing logged information to the database file.
Storage group
In Exchange 2003/2007, a storage group is a logical container for Exchange databases (p. 56), the
associated transaction log (p. 58), checkpoint (p. 56), and other system files. All databases in a
storage group share a single log stream. A storage group is the basic unit for backup and recovery.
Starting with Exchange 2010, the concept of a storage group is discontinued. Therefore, you can
select individual databases for backup. Each database will be backed up along with the necessary
associated files.
