Log

I backup the sql data file(log size is 30GB(30GB is used, 0 is unused).) I
think i just the data only, not include log.
Then i get that backup data file to the other sql server machine to restone
once i finish to restore, the log size is also restored to 30GB as well. but
(1G used, 29 unused)
why will have this result?Restore of a full db backup restores all files as they were present at the
time of the backup. If you want to shring log, use DBCC SHRINKFILE command.
Do please llok for the syntax in Books OnLine.

Did you use Enterprise Manager t do the full db backup? If you llok at the
Options tab when using EM backup, you will see by default a checked checkbox
near the "Remove inactive entries from transaction log" option.
