I would also suggest the DBMS service that is available as a freeware program (not supported) on ISS's website, under "Product Utilities"..

Subject: FW: [ISSForum] Trouble with ISSED database in MS SQL 2000

Hi,
 
I run this script every week:
 
use issed
Declare @EndDate datetime
select
@Enddate = eventdate from events where
datediff(day,eventdate,getdate()) > '30'
exec iss_purgeevents '01-01-2002', @EndDate, '1000'
 
It clears out all events that are between 01-01-2002 and 30 days ago. So you will be keeping data for 30 days.
If you want to keep more, just increase the amount of days.
I also backup the db's on a daily bases, and backup the logs every 6 hours, which truncates them.

Subject: [ISSForum] Trouble with ISSED database in MS SQL 2000

Hi,
I have a problem with ISSED database whose size increases and tables cannot be truncated.
The ISSED database managed by MS SQL Server 2000, saves the logs created by the software RealSecure version 7.0.2002.
Its size has reached up to 10 GB which is near to the disk capacity. I want to clean up the rows in the ISSED DB tables but cannot achieve due to the referenced tables. There are too many tables and I do not know which table to begin truncate without violating the referencing constraints.
When I truncate tables with the sql command "truncate table table_name;", I see an error about violating the referencing constraints.
What shall I do for cleaning up the ISSED database tables without dropping the DB or tables after backup? Is there a script to truncate tables or delete rows? Isn't there any way other than dropping database?
thanks.
