It is routinely:

  When "FileStorage" starts to write a transaction record to
  the storage file, it marks the transaction status as
  "checkpoint" (status == "C").

  After the complete transaction record is written, the
  transaction status is changed to " ".

Thus, you cannot place the storage file on a write once medium
(unless you change the "FileStorage" code).
