The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Shrinking SQL Transaction Log

Asked by swan_solutions in SQLBase, MS SQL Server

Tags: , , ,

I am attempting to shrink a transaction log which is currently 15GB. The reason being, we only have 2GB of disk space left on the partition. Given my very limited knowledge of SQL, I have managed to understand the very basics of the DBCC Shrinkfile tool. However, when I attempt to execute the following command:

BACKUP LOG live_log WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY

I get the following error messages:

Server: Msg 911, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'live_log'. No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
BACKUP LOG is terminating abnormally.

Can anyone shed some light pleaseStart Free Trial
