Any suggestins?

We are having continual problems with our transaction log filling up on one of our major applications.

Is there a way, in SQL 7.0 to print out or view what's in the Transaction Log? In 6.5 you could view the table syslogs, but I don't see any documentation anywhere on how to do this in 7.0.

View 3 Replies View Relatedi have several sql servers doing maintenance plans and backing up the transaction logs to tape. unfortunately it seems that the server keeps adding the transaction logs to the same tape, without overwriting them. Nowadays a transaction log backup to disk takes 2 minutes but when done to tape it is taking up 1hr54minutes. What can i do so that the tape is automatically initialised without having to do it manually... Thanks

Up till Monday, the logs are just of our getting SQLServer set up, so couldn't the logs just be deleted? Most of my site can'trun with this problem.I'd appreciate any enlightenment anyone can give me!Thanks, Jill

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a backup regime where i take a full backup of my production database once a day and then 3 min log backups, I backup my msdb and master once a week.
I need to write a script to scroll through a given directory and restore the log backups in date/time order(with no restore) until the last file and then restore.
I know this is availible in the backup history but if my SQl box crashes and i cant get a uptodate master and msdb the backup history will not be uptodate to restore the database to it's current state.
Can anybody help with a script? or give me any pointers of how to read in filenames in SQL (please remenber i am a SQL virgin).
Thanks

Thanks

I have seen quite a few people post this type of problem, but I am finding few solutions. Your advice and/or experiences are greatly appreciated.
Here's my scenario:
Environment: Windows NT 4.0 SP 6, SQL 7.0 (set up for Transactional Replication)
Problem: We have several remote dB machines configured for full recovery. On these machines are several dB's that are capturing aprox. 280 data points per second per unit. (Each dB represents one unit, and we have 21 units) No problem here. The problem is the transaction logs, that obviously grow profusely, will not SHRINK after, backups, dbcc commands and TSQL has been issued in failed attempts to shrink the logs. (in other words we've tried everything)
My questions are:
1. Because we are replicating, is it absolutely necessary to configure dB's for FULL recovery? How do I check in 7.0 if the dB is certainly in FULL vs. SIMPLE recovery mode?
2. I work with SQL 2000 and shrinking files is no problem. How can we shrink these log files in SQL 7.0?
It is rather urgent I find a solution as we are running out of hard drive space on our remote machines. Please help :-(

I am having trouble Truncating a Transaction Log. I`ve tried everything in Book Online.
I`ve backed up the database, I`ve tried DBCC SHRINKFILE, DBCC SHRINKDATABASE, BACKUP LOG TRUNCATE_ONLY ...etc, but it will not shrink. Any suggestions ? Thanks.
Currently, my databases and their corresponding transaction logs are all on the same disk array. I finally was able to acquire a seperate disk, specifically to seperate the logs, in case of failure, etc.
Now, I need to figure out how to go about moving the tansaction logs off the current disk array and on to the new disk.
In Enterprise Manager, I brought up "Properties" for the first database, and went to the "Transaction Log" tab. Clicked on the "browse" or "..." button in the location field and got the following message:
"A transaction log file's physical name cannot be changed once the transaction log file has been created". :(
I have been looking through Books On Line, but have been unable to find anything helpful yet.
Can anyone help me figure out how to go about moving a transaction log's location? There has to be some way.
Even if it involves shutting down the server, altering system tables, etc. I need to get these moved.
Your help is appreciated. Thanks.
Hi all,
I have set up a maintenance plan to backup my databases but when I view the maintenance plan history the transaction log backup steps have a success tick but a message saying :
"Backup can not be performed on this database. This sub task is ignored"
I have looked in my backup directory and only see *.BAK files and no *.TRN.
The transaction logs are supposed to back up at 1AM and the databases at 2AM
All my databases being backed up have the truncate log on checkpoint option set. Is this best practise according to my backup schedule ?
Help !!!!

Is it possible to move .ldf's to another drive. For example I would like to move a database transaction log file from C:mssql7data to D:mssql7logs.
How can this be done?

Hi all,
I am restoring database from Transaction Logs. I followed all the steps
mentioned in the book. Just before the last step there are three options
1. Leave Database Operational. No Additional Logs can be Restored.
2. Leave Database Nonoperational But Able to Restore Additional
Transaction Logs.
3. Leave Database Read_Only And Able To Restore Additional Transaction Logs.
Option 2 and 3 aresupposed to set on the NORECOVERY flag.
I tried both options 2, and 3 , But still got messages that I did not
specify WITH NORECOVERY or WITH STANDBY.
Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in Advance.
