SQL Log backup - truncate settings

[bertdhont]

Hello,

Currently, we use Veeam to bakcup SQL logs every hour.
That implies that - after the daily image level backup is done - Veeam performs a truncate of the SQL transaction logs on the SQL server.

We now have another application that needs those logfiles.
Is there a possibilty that Veeam only truncates old SQL transaction logs, but leaves the most recent logfiles?

Hi Bert,

No, there is no such option. However, you may consider using backup in Copy-only mode, in this case, Veeam will not touch any logs at all.

Thanks!
