Emil,

I ran into the same problem.  SQL Server doesn't seem to update the size of the
log file when it should.  Trying doing a DBCC Checktable on your syslogs table.
Also if you do a Manage|Database|Properties|Full in the MS SQL Adminstrator you
shoudl get back accurate info about the log size.  I think that doing the DBCC
on syslogs will help SQL Server realize the actual size of the table though.

Allen.

Following is the Properties List of my database BLBDATA.  No matter how hard
we tried, the Log Space Used is still as big as 270Mb!  I did try using Dump
Database, Dump Transaction with truncate and with no_log but still does not
help.  The Log used to store together with the data segment master, I tried
to altered it to the new device LogDev but doesn't help neither.

Could anybody help?
