Is there anyway to truncate the transaction log periodically? Whether log shipping will help to solve this problem?"

backing up the database or log will truncate.

If you don't need point in time recovery, then change your database model to simple and SQL Server will handle truncation of the logs automatically.

Hi..

Otherwise schedule a backup of transaction log. It will ensure that ur transaction log is within the controlled size and ur database can be recovered in case of any failure (it u have latest transaction log backup).


Keep Smiling.
