Set a database to simple recovery model
This is how you turn off needing to log everything.
Simple recovery model is ok for dev, not for prod.
ALTER DATABASE MyDatabase SET RECOVERY SIMPLE;
To find the current recover model:
SELECT name, recovery_model_desc
FROM sys.databases
WHERE name = 'MyDatabase' ;
GO
example:
name | recovery_model_desc |
---|---|
MyDatabase | FULL |
