Exchange 2010 Log Files Growing Rapidly
first article to MSExchange.org readers. In the following document I will describe preventive exchange 2013 clear transaction logs measures that should help you avoid running out of disk space and in addition I will also describe possible exchange 2010 circular logging remedies if this has (gasp) already happened. I find Exchange server to be a very complicated system and as in most complicated systems the most "trivial things" may bring it to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/321825 its knees. One of these "trivial things" is lack of disk space on the disk that holds the log files for a specific storage group. When the Information Store identifies lack of disk space for a storage group's logs it will dismount the stores inside the respective storage group. The last sentence I wrote may sound very calm yet when this happens on http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2003/planning-architecture/Exchange-log-disk-full.html one of the Exchange servers you are responsible for you will be anything but calm. Once the stores in the storage group are dismounted, users are disconnected from their precious information (mail, calendars, contacts…) and they will come waving pitchforks… Before we delve into our main subjects I think it is important to understand the exact role that log files have. Describing the Exchange storage system A very oversimplified analysis of an Exchange server may state that that an Exchange server is nothing more then a database server that has some exotic extensions through which users can manipulate their data. This analysis (even though oversimplified) is not far from truth, and it emphasizes the importance of the database that stores the user's information on an Exchange server. Exchange server uses a database technology called ESE (Extensible Storage Engine), this database technology is based on the JET (Joint Engine Technology) database engine. The ESE engine employs several files upon which the database is built (I have only specified the ones that are relevant to our topic): Store files- The store files hold the information that is already committed

When I started the job a month ago I discovered that it has a RAID disk fault and the DB hasn't been backed up for almost a year (the Event viewer is also flagging inconsistencies in the DB) Obviously the Transaction Logs have built up (80gb worth !) exchange 2010 log and is chewing up disk space on the C Drive. My challange being I am unable to back up the DB (I've tested backing up a small file (50mb) on NT Backup and it froze) the server is sluggish and copying say 4 gb worth of data onto D Partition takes 30 minutes. I suspect this is due to the RAID fault So I'm worried the server will crash doing any disk intense activity (ie moving the Transaction log files path, or trying a full backup) My question is thus, I know it's a bad idea to delete log files manually but how likely are log files from say back in April 2011 are still not committed to the DB? I suppose I could dismount the DB and run eseutil to see what log files are needed, but would it remount again?? Damn I can't do a backup either ! We will be migrating next week to a new Exchange 2010 server but I read in MS that when migrating mailboxes you will get a big increase in log file size at the Exchange Server 2003 side as well as 2010? (in some cases 1:1 they say which means transfering mailboxes would fill up Exchange 2003's log disk ! No mans land really lol. Send PM 7th January 2012,08:42 PM #2 SYNACK Join Date Oct 2007 Po
(if EDB and LOG files are separated). Update 21/Oct/2013 - This article suggests that you cannot sustain downtime or interruption for your users while battling with deleting log files or restoring your working backup solution. If you can sustain a downtime (should be around minutes or so) the easiest method will be to enable Circular Logging on your database / storage group - see more here - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb331958%28v=exchg.141%29.aspx#UTL Update 01/May/2013 - The exchange team has written a script which helps troubleshoot and identity issues with Backups etc.. The script use the DiskShadow utility as well ! check it out @ http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2013/04/29/troubleshoot-your-exchange-2010-database-backup-functionality-with-vsstester-script.aspx Hi Again ! I often get calls and questions regarding backups and Exchange Server, since ever this issue is not always working as required or as you would expect, but that's off-topic 🙂 One of the most common stories is that without a working Exchange Server backup when you perform massive mailbox moves, transaction logs will get piled and fill up the volume or disk that they reside in. and then panic starts, "hey my databases were dismounted…" then of course the administrator realizes that the space on the log drive or volume has indeed ran out and now he needs to figure out what to delete.. and here's where this post comes in… So how can you delete or purge Exchange server logs without any risk ? well, in simple - you cannot, because the whole idea of restoring an Exchange or for this matter any transactional database requires you to have a first - "full" backup of the database itself and all transaction logs that were generated since the the date of the database creation date, or the last "successful" "fu
