  Where are the SQL server logs physically kept.  I know you can get to it though EM>database> management>SQL server logs. But one has grown too big.  So I issued a new log command (cant remember the actual command at this moment) and it gave me a new log but I want to read the old log.  It is too big for EM to read.

  thanks!

  C:\MSSQL\LOG

  Depends on the path of where you have SQL installed...the above path would be the most basic path.
