We are getting the following message when trying to shrink our transaction log.
Msg 155, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
'TRUNCATE_ONLY' is not a recognized BACKUP option.
Cannot shrink log file 2 (mdb_log) because the logical log file located at the end of the file is in use.
I found online that the solution is to change the recovery mode to SIMPLE, shrink log files and then change to the FULL recovery mode.
Will this work and can I change the recovery mode to simple with the database online?
