Thanks for the reply. The H2 community is always helpful!

That makes sense with the ACCESS_MODE_DATA.

I just want to make sure that I understand how to use the "CHECKPOINT 
SYNC".  Assuming I use the default durability and the defualt 
ACCESS_MODE_DATA, then I can simply call CHECKPOINT SYNC after an important 
update/insert.   And that is it?  I understand that there are still no 
absolute guarantees with this, but this seems like it should work.

My environment has pretty good power backup.
