Hi,
my Bigfix server is stuck in a state where I cannot doing anything, but is somehow functional(still no catastrofic errors)

The server is SQL Server Express 2008 R2

BESAdmin Tool give that error on opening:

error1

Cleanup tools seems ineffective:

Computer Remover run but no space cleaned(deployment is 30 machines big)

Audit Trail:


The Bes Audit Trail Cleaner run operation will remove the following data:

But after ok…

SQL Server Space report

Can you suggest me smth to fix this situation? I know that the solution would be to upgrade to a full 2008 server install, but I think it’s not an option in the immediate future

Thanks

It looks like you’ve hit the space limit for SQL Express. You are correct, you’ll need to upgrade to a full version of SQL…

Any chance to clan up some stuff?? i see in some tables data from 2016, I could easily keep only stuff from the last 180 or 90 days, the environment is very static

thanks!
