I have the exact same problem on our SQL cluster and did not find this helpful I am sorry to say. All that and then "reboot", I thought there would be a process described on how to actually find the root cause and how to resolve.
From the lazy log blog: CREATE TABLE test1 ( myvarchar varchar(5000)) GO INSERT INTO test1 VALUES( replicate(‘*’,5000)) GO 5000 DELETE FROM test1 At first, I did not understand but it works because the primary key constraint is missing :-) BACKUP LOG [LLTTest] TO DISK = N’C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\LLTTest.bak’ WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N’LLTTest-Transaction Log Backup’, SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10 What is the purpose of NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD when creating a disk file? What is the purpose of NOINIT/SKIP: "If the volume contains a valid media header, appends the backup set, preserving all existing backup sets."
I can't tell if this is a joke or not, because I was joking around in the video about how I couldn't answer random questions on RUclips with any speed or accuracy :) The backup options are explained here: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/statements/backup-transact-sql It gives more details on all of those items if you have a question. (I can't tell if you're sharing or asking.)
Oh, sure! That would be a fun episode to talk through some of the cryptic backup terminology. I'll put that on my list. Thanks, I totally didn't get it. Probably because I was doing two things at once.

Thanks for the clear and nice explanation!
Thank you for this video! I'm experiencing a similar issue and this gave me a lot of information about what I can look into! :-)

Thanks. I did not expect an answer but was just asking a “Dear SQL DBA” Question
