complete backup after that and shink works.

Thanks all, also can anyone provide me the script for "RESTART LOG

Why did you do a truncate on the log? You should have done a just a

backup of the log. Now you'll need to take a full backup to get your

backup chain in order so you can do log backups.

Hi Gurus,



I did mistake again... This time again my replication failed, and now my

log file size is 12 gB...



What I did is directly made backup log with truncate only...

As my logreader failed, it has to run so as to take the uncommitted

transaction, but now my log reader is restring and my log is full,



Dbcc sqlperf(logspace)

Shows 93% used

And

Dbcc loginfo(dbnam)

Shows all 2's



Please help....







Thank you.

This seems to be related to replication.



The issue is that the transactions stay in the log until they are copied

by the log reader and be marked as read and ok for backup/removal.

Morning All,



At production on publisher Database, on Friday evening our log reader

job failed, I checked on Sunday morning, till that time it occupies all

the disk space, and what I found is backup size becomes 4 times more

then actual. and ldf size becomes 2/3 times more( it used to be less

then mdf size), After restarting the logreader agent- job, the backup

file size becomes normal, but my ldf file size is still high.... which

is a my concern...

this

is occupying most of my disk space.



Please suggest me how to handle this, as replication is going on, and I

think its not good to truncate the log.



thinks are like this:

generally:

mdf: 4GB

ldf: 3.8GB

bak: 4GB



now

ldf file size is : 8.8GB



The output of:

DBCC sqlperf(logspace)

Database 8283.7422 1.110167 0



can I shrink the ldf? ... would it impact on my replication?



*** IT IS A PRODUCTION, PUBLISHER DATABASE



Please suggest. Its critical for me.

Thank you.

Vinay Thakur
