Due to PCI we have to Enable C2 Audit logging on the SQL server. Last night we had a problem where because it was enabled the audit log was filled up and shut down SQL server. what is the best way to manage the logs? purge? |

After 200 MB , a new file is created. You could look at monitoring the folder , and transfering the files to a dedicate driveJack Vamvas--------------------http://www.sqlserver-dba.com |

dtrivedi, one way of transfering the file is to use the DOS command MOVE. Place it in a .bat file - and schedule to run regularly. This is a DIY methodJack Vamvas--------------------http://www.sqlserver-dba.com |
