  • I am using Sql Server 2005. So, before I start importing, change the recovery model to BULK and once I am done importing, change it back to FULL. I will do that. So, then once I am done deleting the data, i should truncate the log file, right? Thanks for your help P_DBA. Awesome!!

  • which edition of SQL server are you using?

    I am using Enterprise edition.

  • Yes, thats right switch the recovery model to full and with enterprise the size of database is unlimited..Yes you should truncate the log once u have done deleting the data....

    Or

    You can completely delete the database and start a new database with new data files and log files......and import the huge data into the new one making sure that your recovery model is in bulk logged......

    cheers!
