Multi-Level Recovery
Summary: Presents a systematic, high-performance recovery algorithm for multi-level transactions that handles compensating actions and non-atomic high-level operations (e.g., multi-page updates) via operation logging. Prioritizes simplicity over ad-hoc tricks and is implemented in the DASDBS kernel. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
