Log File Size restricted to 2048MB?

  • Hello,

    Its happening something curious to me.

    I've created one database in SQL Server 2005 with one datafile with xyz MB with unrestricted file size and a log file abc unrestricted file size.

    When i look at the size of the file size of the transaction log it appears to me with a restricted file size of 2047KB :o$

    I run the following command and when i go to SSMS it appears like if i haven't run this command.

    USE [master]

    GO

    ALTER DATABASE [DATABASE_NAME] MODIFY FILE ( NAME = N'file_name_log', MAXSIZE = UNLIMITED, FILEGROWTH = 10240KB )

    GO

    Is there any bug that i don't know?

    Can anybody help me on this point?

    Thanks and regards

    JMSM 😉

  • Sorry,

    The file growth when we put the unrestricted growth is 2TB not 2GB

    "By 10 MB, restricted growth to 2097152 MB"

    ;o$

    Thank and regads

  • Hi, if you haven't found the answer yet, it was addressed here: http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic493874-146-1.aspx

    The default 'Unrestricted' log size IS 2TB in SQL Server 2005.
