Hi,
I backed up my transaction log file using this:
BACKUP LOG iTest2_AELetters TO DISK = N'nul'
(yes I know this breaks the log chain - it's expected in this intance)
But after I run it my t log is exact same size. I have refreshed many times.
I am using SQL Always On on this DB.

Backing up the transaction log truncates the log, marks virtual log files as inactive (reusable). It does not shrink the physical log file.
