You cannot clear the logs manually since the exchange won't work properly. You have to do daily full backups not incremental. Or else until you fix this space issue just connect a new hard disk and move the transaction log files there from the exchange system manager. -----Original Message----- From: Abdalla Ziraba [mailto:abdalla@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, March 17, 2003 2:07 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: automate clearing logs http://www.MSExchange.org/ I carry out backups on a daily basis. I clear these logs on a weekly basis.
