Nope that didn't do anything I did system status, the drives the DB and logs are on and set VSS to full. The backup completed but it didn't clear the log files.
I'm back down to only a few GB. I'm about ready to just copy them elsewhere jb From: Jason Benway [mailto:benw...@jsjcorp.com] Sent: Monday, February 13, 2012 11:37 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: exchange logs during mailbox migration Shoot :( How do I use the default windows backup to get it to clear the exchange logs?

Over the weekend a bunch of mailboxes were migrated that filled up the logs, I've freed up some space but I want to enable circular logging to finish the migrations. When I run Set-MailboxDatabase -CircularloggingEnabled:$true It says it won't take effect until the DB is unmounted and remounted. That doesn't help much. I've tried just running a full backup with commvault but its been running over 10 hours with little visible activity. Do I need to unmounts and remount for circular logging to start?
