Hi,
I am doing maintenance on my primary server, rebuilding and reorganizing tables. I am doing it parts. Last night I rebuilt an index took an hour. The ldf file grew from 20gb to 70gb and is currently 99% empty.
The database is in transaction log-shipping mode.
I can see that since then the backup of the log files takes much longer and I am afraid it's because the ldf file is bigger even though it's empty.
I want to shrink the ldf on the primary server. Can I do it or will it destroy the transaction log shipping?
If I can do it just with TruncateOnly or NoTruncate, from what I found, it seems I can shrink but just with NoTruncate, but would this help me at all?
