Interesting, do you know what technet article? I am curious to read its explanation. I still wouldn't do it, but just curious! jlc

The fun part is finding that point and not deleting past it... there are technet notes which describe how to work out where the checkpoint is, and therefore which logs can be removed. Personally though I'd take the compression and backup/flush option if available - easy and relatively safe. Is there anything else on this volume which can be moved or compressed?

They should be an ntfs partition, a better solution is to compress a few, then back the darn thing up. If those logs aren't committed, I don't know wtf would happen if you removed them and backed up, but it sounds dangerous!

You need to remove some log files manually. Move all log files before today. I assumed any transaction log older than today have been committed to the Information Stores. Be careful don't touch these 3 files - edb.log, res1.log, res2.log. Don't know what these is but saw it since the day Exchange is installed. -----Original Message----- From: Scott Burgin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 4:20 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Transaciton logs in 5.5 We had to turn off circular logging for Arcserver to backup exchnage a while back. Anyway, the information store won't start up because it says the transaction logs are too full. I re-enabled circular logging, but the information store still won't start. Any ideas?
