Hi @ xiaoding133 ,
In the past two days, I have done some more in-depth research on the transaction log.
I learned that as soon as a transaction is created in memory, it is written from memory to the log file (E00.log) in use. When this E00.log file is filled with transactions, it is saved to disk with another name, and that name is numbered sequentially by the most recent log file, such as E0000000734.log.
Therefore, the creation time displayed in the properties page is the time the transaction log was saved as a log file (E0000000734.log).
In addition, when one log file is full, it is automatically written to the next log. So you can use eseutil to get the creation time of the next file, which is the end time of the previous file.
(Kindly note:To avoid corrupting the database, do not modify any log files directly.)
For more information about transaction logs, you can refer to this link: Eseutil - Part 1: Database Technologies (techgenix.com)
