PROBLEM: Your SQL transaction log has grown to be really big, this might be because a load of data was added, or your backup procedures were failing to truncate the logs. SOLUTION: Take a backup of the database, then open the SSMS and then run this command: USE DATABASENAME GO ALTER DATABASE DATABASENAME SET RECOVERY SIMPLE WITH NO_WAIT DBCC SHRINKFILE(DATABASENAME_log, 1024) ALTER DATABASE DATABASENAME SET RECOVERY FULL WITH NO_WAIT GO Now take a full backup of the database to ensure you have a recoverable version. |
