Error: 9002, Severity: 17 log_reuse_wait_desc = ‘log_backup’ transaction log full

Advertisements

Shrink log file for log_reuse_wait_desc = ‘log_backup’, there are cases we are getting often that transaction log full due do lack of log_backup or sometimes in simple mode the log is full for larger high IOPS transaction.

Take a look on this –> https://sqlserverblogforum.com/dba/database-transaction-log-file-full-in-the-full-recovery-model/

Here is the script to shrink transaction log file. schedule it on agent for every hour.
