　　The Exchange log files are not removed after a full VSS backup when one of the following conditions are met -

• 1 or more missing/corrupt log file(s) or
  
• log files are not in sequence
  

　　There may be more reasons but these are the two main reasons that I’ve come across.
　　The easiest and quickest way to fix this is to -

• Open EMC
  
• Expand Organisation Configuration
  
• Select Mailbox the Database Management
  
• Highlight and dismount the database
  
• Open the properties of the database
  
• On the maintenance tab tick “Enable circular logging”
  
• Re-mount the database and watch all the log files disappear
  
• Once the database has mounted, dismount the database and remove “Enable circular logging”
  
• Re-mount the database
  

　　Schedule your backups to run with Full VSS and your log files should now be automatically removed.
