  Hi

  I'm getting "transactio log file full" error on database

  My log file size is 1 GB ad % utilization is 63%

  Log file is incremented @ 10%

  Could anyone pls tell me what is this and how to resolve the problem

  If I chang the % amt from 10 to 25 ..do I need to restart the server to make it effective

  Thanks

  Ritesh

  this message occurs when sqlserver gets a timeout when trying to extend a file. In this case it's the logfile.

  The is no need to restart when altering the increment size for a file.

  Hi,

  Backup the transaction log and truncate it.You'll save some place onto your server and all pending active transaction will be validated and all inactive will be truncated.
