When you enable circular logging in database, It re synchronizes the logs and it will be purged in all database copies. It may few hours depends on the database size. A 200 GB of database with 300 GB logs takes 3 to 4 hours in Blade servers
To Enable circular logging, you may use the following cmdlet :
Set-MailboxDatabase “DatabaseName” -CircularLoggingEnabled:$TrueTo Disable:
Set-MailboxDatabase “DatabaseName” -CircularLoggingEnabled:$False- PrasantChettriJul 01, 2020Copper Contributor
