Dear Sandro:
I was going through this with the support today. Your purge might not be
working if your database is full and has no space in it. In order for
the purge to work, I think you need at least 100 Mb of free space. If
you don't have it, try increasing the database size and then try
purging. It can also be useful if at the beginning you try purging a few
days since your installation (purge just a few days from the database)
and then repeat incrementally. That worked for me
Best regards;

Try to fully reindex the db to eliminate fragmented index from the sql 
server console. Do it from the SQL console and not only using ISS stored

procedure, because ISS sp "optimize" only some table.

Give a look also to this KB article:
https://iss.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/iss.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_admin

Hi there,

I'm trying to shrink the RealSecure SiteProtector (SP4.1) db which is
about
11 GB (!).

I first used the Database Maintenance feature in SP Console with
autopurge/autoshrink enabled, no luck.

Then I followed KB#1146 to purge the db using the following sql
procedure:

USE RealSecureDB
Go
EXEC iss_PurgeObs  '1/1/2004'
EXEC iss_PurgeMetrics  '1/1/2004'
EXEC iss_PurgeSD  '1/1/2004'

followed by KB#2342:

DBCC SHRINKDATABASE (RealSecureDB, 10) 

also with no luck.
As I'm not an MS SQL guru I hope to get some hints from you guys.

Thank you in advance,
Sandro
