SysDatabaseLog TABLE Cleanup

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Bilal.Bashir 50

Objective: How to run the batch job to delete records from SysdatabaseLog table.

I am unable to run "Clean up log" batch job because when I open System Administrator \ Inquiries \ Database \ Database Log form/screen, system just keep processing and never return because of high volume of records in SysdatabaseLog table. (refer to the screenshot below which I took from DEVBOX).

Is there any other way to run "Clean up log" batch job? or delete data from SysdatabaseLog table?

    Hi Bilal,

    According to Microsoft Doc,  the official way would be to set up a batch job.As you do now. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamicsax-2012/appuser-itpro/configure-and-manage-database-logging

    Regarding whether it can be deleted directly from SQL,Please refer this thread:

    Hi Bilal,

    Do you have any issues if you mark checkbox "Batch processing" and set up "Recurrence"?
