In my understanding accesslog contains changes that should be sent out (i.e. 
information that is in the provider database already).
With an empty accesslog anyn ew changes will be sent out after a restore.
Whoever pending changes (before the restore) would be lost. So probably you 
want to force a resync-after a restore of the provider.
When done cleverly, no unneeded changes will happen on the consumer.

Details may depend on the reason WHY yoiu need a restore of the provider.
