Apart from this, transaction log files play a significant role in the Exchange backup and recovery operations. Below we will be discussing three different methods to manage the transaction logs of any Exchange Server from onwards. Apart from solving the storage issue, it also reduces the load from the Exchange Server.
In the Exchange Server, you can back up and remove the transaction logs from the server by performing a custom backup via Windows Server Backup or any other application-aware backup software. Based on the backup option you select, the WSB issues a command to VSS on the server to keep or truncate the transaction logs automatically after the backup completes.
If you wish to remove the log files after a successful backup, you must choose the Custom backup option and select specific volumes or folders and files, instead of the entire Exchange for the backup. The steps are as follows:. Click on Backup Schedule … or Backup Once… based on your preference to open the backup wizard. Click on Add Items and then choose the drive volume or database folder that contains the database and transaction logs for backup.
Click Next. If you are scheduling the backup, choose the time and frequency of the backup. Choose where you want to store the backup — a dedicated drive, volume, or network location. Then click Next. Confirm your selection by clicking Yes when prompted and then click Finish.
This not only helps you safeguard your Exchange database but also recovers storage space used by the log files. NOTE: This will format the selected destination disk. Make sure the disk content is backed up to avoid data loss.
