1.  You need to "disable" circular logging.

2.  You can run Perf Opt to move the log files to a bigger drive.

Got anything in your MTA's, any replication that was setup previously before
the server was removed???

Subject: ever growing log files


We have one Exchange 5.5 server, SP4, running on NT 4 SP6a.  Just recently
after the removal of one of our servers from the site, the C: drive on our
remaining exchange server has started running low on disk space.  Looking
out there in the exchsrvr\imcdata\log folder, there are about 17 different
files named L0000000, L0000001, etc.  The biggest one is almost 2GB in size
and some of the others are over 100MB.  

Couple of questions.  Should these logs be this big?  I thought when you do
a full backup it was supposed to flush the logs.  We use Backup Exec 7.3 and
are doing full backups every day.  Circular logging is enabled.  We have
checked these logs for the past 4 days or so and they are growing larger
each day.  

Second, can I just run the optimizer and move these logs to a bigger
partition?  I suggested doing that, but one of my coworkers says not to
touch them. 

Thanks for your help.

Tim
