Please explain it to me again why you need more space for your 200 mb database that has a 500 gb log file.

    I too have this question but never found an answer for it, guess I"m looking in the wrong place because all said similar to this: https://dba.stackexchange.com/quest...

    In my case it's a DB in simple mode. A job that processes some data does it RBAR, so that blows up the log file. But...it will take too long to recode it so we need to get more space.

    How far back do those logs go? And are they even relevant?

    Just rotate them. find -m7 dir -exec rm {}\;
    Why are they needed if you're not rolling back or rebuilding from a set point in time? Just curious.
