Shrinking Server Database Log Files

Modified on Wed, 15 Nov, 2023 at 9:07 AM

Before shrinking change to "Simple" 

 

(this will need to be switched back to full after shrinking)



Switch file type to "Log"

Select "Reorganize pages before releasing unused space"

Shrink file to whatever the last digit is in this case "3"

SWITCH RECOVERY MODEL BACK TO FULL IF IT WAS THAT WAY TO START !!!!!
