Backup the Transaction Log regularly (every 15 minutes is a reasonable interval)Change the Transaction Log to "Autogrow" - if it is currently a fixed size |

And create an alert that will back up the transaction logs to a newtwork share when they get say 75-80% full. Stops ANY any database crashes becuase of TLogs getting full |

I like that idea - presumably that would launch a TLog backup during Index Rebuild housekeeping (which IME is the most hefty users of TLog space) just-in-time before the TLog was extended? |
