Hi

I need to change some databases from the simple recovery model to Full
I have unchecked the option of Truncate log on checkpoint
Should I uncheck the select into/bulk copy to get the database in the full recovery mode?
I want the database in Full recovery mode and not bulk logged. My confusion is that if i uncheck it whether the bulk logged operations are logged or not logged?

Thanks in advance

I can't remember clearly back to SQL 7, so I dunno if this suggestion will work on SQL 7, but if so you could try clicking the various checkboxes and checking the results with

SELECT DATABASEPROPERTYEX('MyDatabaseName', 'Recovery')

You should uncheck both "Truncate log on checkpoint" and "Select into/bulk copy".


DATABASEPROPERTYEX was new in SQL 2000, so it probably won't be much help.
