Clear the transaction Log if you are facing a low disk space on the database server. To truncate log, use the following commands:
DBCC SHRINKFILE('logfilename', 1)
BACKUP LOG redeoba WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY DBCC SHRINKFILE('logfilename', 1)
where log filename is usually database name, i.e., northwind.log. Please do let me know, if you have any doubt. Please provide "Vote":thumbsup: if this would be helpful.:rose: Thanks, Imdadhusen
