E2k trans logs #s increasing rapidly

[George, Reju]

Hi all,

The number of transaction logs being created on one of my Exchange servers(E2k sp3) 
has increased quite a bit recently. For this 
installation, the total trans log size was under 1 gig every day until a few weeks 
back and now is between 4-5 gig.

MSFT KB talks about the possible culprits being Virusscan or backup programs accessing 
the M drive for filescans or to make backups.

In my case I use both Exchange aware AV program and backup program(Groupshield and 
Arcserve E2k agent) and I confirmed that neither is 
accessing the M drive directly for scanning or backing up.

Searches from OWA also supposedly increases the number of logs being created, but I 
don't think that is the case here - don't think usage pattern has changed dramatically 
in the last few weeks.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any other thoughts on what could be causing 
this.

Thanks in advance .

Regards,

Reju
