I am running SQL 2000 SP4. I see the DUMP TRANSACTION command in BOL and
other Microsoft documentation but it doesn't seem to work. Is it still
supported. The command I am using is DUMP TRANSACTION WITH NO_LOG.

Rom Reis,

If you want to truncate the inactive portion of the Transaction Log of your
database, in SQL SERVER 2000 you use the following statement:

Backup Log DBNAME with TRUNCATE_ONLY

The " Dump Transaction " is a 6.x SQL Version Command.

Best Regards,

Paulo Condeça.

DUMP TRANSACTION is still supported, but is deprecated. Define "doesn't
seem to work". Does the equivalent BACKUP command do anything differently?
