  • Issue Reported: Simphony displays an error message on the screen that cannot be passed by. Exact ErrorMessage/Symptoms: “OPS local database has exceeded maximum recommended size".

    "Check and Posting is unable to accept data due to limited resources”

    Business Impact: Affected terminal is not operational.

    Steps to Reproduce: Launch Service Host à error message is displayed after Symphony loads on the WS

    Solutions:

    A: Shrinking the CheckandPosting/Local Datastore Database transaction logs

    1. Open SQL Server Management Studio
    2. Connect and login to the local database.
    3. Expand Databases.
    4. Right click on a database (CheckAndPosting / MCRSPOS / etc) and then choose Properties.
    5. Choose Options.
    6. Change Recovery Model from Full to Simple, then click OK.
    7. Right click on the Database you just changed the properties for; select Tasks, then choose Shrink, and then choose Files.
    8. Change the File type from Data to Log.
    9. Choose Reorganize pages before releasing unused space.
    10. Shrink file to the minimum number listed, 0Mb normally.
    11. Repeat steps 7-10 until file size is 0 MB.
    12. Once the file size is 0 MB, right click on the DB and choose Properties.
    13. Go to Options and change the Recovery Model from Simple back to the original setting Full, then click OK.

    Some systems may already set in Simple Recovery Mode. If so, do not change the recovery model. Leave it at Simple and proceed with steps 7-11, and do not change the Recovery Model to Full when complete.
