This article was previously published under Q247715 SUMMARY
Windows 2000 Active Directory uses circular logging for maintaining transactions in the database (Ntds.dit). The log files are maintained until the data they contain is committed to the database. It uses these log files to recover transactions if the database is shut down in an inconsistent state.(for example, as a result of a power failure or a blue-screen error message). In Windows 2000, there is currently no way to disable or turn off circular logging.
