Hey Folks
I'm having a tough time finding any information in the available documentation about this feature. Does anyone out there have a bit of insight as to what exactly it does. Docs says MySQL will store a checksum for each row if this is 'on' - that's about all I can find. Some general questions are: Where is it stored? Is it assessable? How is the checksum verified between two databases - e.g., in a master/slave environment? Which technology is used (MD5 etc.)? An even more general is, what would be a scenario in which I would use this feature? I'm thinking it would be nice to verify data traveling across a client server environment....but I may be wrong..... Any insight? Thanks Mike
