Bigfix DB SQL Express Maximum Size

Hello,
I have my Bigfix DB installed on SQL express and the DB has reach it’s maximum of 10GB.

I tried the cleanup tools of Bigfix and tried shring via SQL and I am unable to free space.

What would you guys recommend that I do?

TIA!

I’m hoping that this is your personal lab or test infra. If so, consider upgrading to the SQL Developer edition, which has unlimited database size, no restrictions, and is free.

as long as it is not a production BigFix instance you can actually switch it to SQL Dev edition without reinstalling anything. I would recommend making a backup first or a VM snapshot or both.
