    how can i check the old recovery model? i try to change it from DB options but after changing to simple LOGS backup is not possible. DB is showing its size 221GB including LDF size.. Any suggestion to get out from this issue.

      Try running the following query:

      SELECT
      [name],
      recovery_model_desc,
      log_reuse_wait_desc
      FROM
      sys.databases
      WHERE
      [name] = 'YourDatabaseName'

      Compare the value returned to the list on TechNet: Factors That Can Delay Log Truncation[^]

          Is your database set up for replication? If so, the replication is broken and you'll need to fix it. If it's not set up for replication, then you'll need to remove the replication settings. Try sp_removedbreplication[^]:

          EXEC sp_removedbreplication 'YourDatabaseName'
