Exchange Log file question

[Joshua1]

My Log files are getting to large how can I del them?

 

[remain]

backing up your private information store using a proper Exchange Private Information store backup will get rid of most of the log files safely

 

[Joshua1]

Do you mean to purge the exchange files when backing up and
can you just del any log file without any problems?

 

[Vos]

Joshua1:

Do not manually delete any of your transaction logs! This will result in your information store DB becoming inconsistent and it will therefore fail to run.

What Remain meant was that if you use an Exchange aware backup client, it will remove the transaction logs for you once they have been backed up. It's an automatic process.

There are 10 types of people in the world,
those who know binary, and those who don't!
