Hi Paul, Data Protection for SQL can certainly run LOG backups.
You could modify your automated scheduled batch file to call the a SQL Server job to shrink the files. For example, something like this: tdpsqlc backup * full tdpsqlc backup * log osql -E -i shinkjob.sql where "shinkjob.sql" is a TSQL command file to shrink the log for you.
