disk drive space error

  • I received an error that I am out of disk drive space on my SQL server and the SQL database has suddenly grown to be extremely large, what steps can I take to address this concern?

  • Log file large or data file?

    Log file large or data file?

    Data file

  • Data file growing usually means that there's been a lot of data added recently. Maybe check see if the size of the tables has increased recently?
