    Hello Master Gail: Thanks a million for such beautiful article on log behavior.

    Quick Question: I have seen a situation where the there is no replication setup on the DB . CDC is wnabled. and the log_reuse_wait_desc shows as 'Replication'..

    As per the article, undistributed transaction is causing the Log Growth. how can i check if which undistributed LSN ((43831:51:1) in my case) provided in DBCC OPENTRAN output is pointing to DDL operations of type ALTER TABLE.

    how can i relate and compare the LSN in OPENTRAN with DDL Operation

    Please have your comments on this..

    Please don't post in multiple threads for the same problem. I answered you in the thread you started, please keep the discussion there for simplicity and clarity.
