| Good Question. However, My TempDB got increased to the extent where it can fall, but all my DB Level LDF's were not increased. According to theory, when LDF gets to the HWM then automatically TEMPDB filled just because of some SP or batch process of DML, but in my case, it was not so.Any clarification to this anyone please? |

| "You can shrink it via DBCC SHRINKFILE"There used to be dire warnings about the circumstances when this was doable "online" (i.e. for TEMPDB), is that still the case (SQL 2008, say), or is it now "safe"? |
