I'm not really sure what you are talking about here. If the log file
grew, apparently there was some action going on in the database. "
1.) What I'm not clear on is this....a dbcc loginfo yeilds 308 rows
marked with a 2.
Are those 'active' uncommitted transactions? What do those rows
represent?
2.) If backing up a log makes the space within a log file 'reusable'
why did the log grow in size if the space in the log was made reusable?
Wouldn't the minimal activity I referenced use that reclaimed space
within the log instead of making it bigger?
3) And finally what is the relationship between the results of a dbcc
loginfo command, a dbcc opentran and a A SELECT @@TRANCOUNT
