I might have missed it, but is there a long-running client operation in
progress, or some other long-running process? That could be pinning the
log. For example, a client backup of a very large file over a modem.

The SHOW LOGPINNED command might shed some light (support would probably
want that info anyway).

Regards,

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
