# This is the script that should be run to checkpoint the perforce server.
# A checkpoint file gives us the ability to restore the server data base files.
#
# The script will create a checkpoint file and then move it to a new directory
# for safe keeping.

# -r    set server root directory
# -jc   checkpoint, then save and truncate journal
# -z    gzip checkpoint/journals
