Another thing that can cause pruning to fail, is not having enough free space on the disk to make a copy of the log file (100MB) before the pruning is done. But in the dsmsched.log file, you will see the pruning failure when that happens.

Usually if I restart the Schedule process in the control panel services panel, the log file will trim it self correctly. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David McClelland Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2006 2:53 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Log prune on non-standard log names?
