Is it possible or recommended to purge old database files raaaaaaaa.chg files we have are from 2002 can we purge these in let say a seperate drive folder and if so what is the best practice for such a move and are there any ramifications to such a process. Any advice on this is much appreciated. Thanks.
 
Hi,

Please refer to the link below


rxxxxxxx.chg – Velocis uses a change log to record each change made to a database during a transaction. A complete change log is the logical concatenation of all change log files written since the last backup. Using a process called “change log cycling” the server uses a new change log file when the current one reaches the maximum size (default 2,000,000 bytes) set by the MaxChangeLogSize configuration parameter found in velocis.ini.

So it can be safely said that you can purge the old logs from the database..

cheers
