backup log 'DATABASE_NAME' with truncate_onlyThen do a full database backup. Check your drive space as well. |

Well it's only going to happen again. Your database recovery model is probably set to FULL and you aren't performing any transaction log backups. So to fix for good, check this out:http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=56434Tara Kizeraka tduggan |

i prefer to do a full backup before the truncate, then see if this free up space, if not then the truncate will be executed only if hard drive is unable to accomodate the growthin short: truncate is my last option for managing file growth --------------------keeping it simple... |
