Hi,
I have a SQL 2005 database whose restore model is set to simple. This is because there will not be many changes to the data, usually just once per week or occasionally during the week. A backup is taken once per day using the INIT option in order to overwrite.
The restore model was set to full but but the log file was getting large so this was changed to simple and the log file shrunk.
Just stating this here in case it is relevant.
When I perform an update table command on a row in one table just as a test, the modified dates for the MDF and the LDF files are not changing, although the update does appear to have been applied when I re-query the table. The MDF modified date is for about one week ago and the LDF modified date about an hour prior to the test update statement. So (finally) my question is, is this correct behaviour?
Many thanks!
