Log File is in use

  • Hi.

    I have taken a database backup from production and restored it in Dev server.The database size is of 160 GB.So i planned to shrink database file.i used the following statement

    DBCC ShrinkFile('ChangeDM',1)

    While executing the statement,I am getting the error "Cannot shrink log file 4 (ChangeDM_Log1) because all logical log files are in use".

    I have used the Open tran Statement to view the open transaction in Database.

    I get the following Results

    Replicated Transaction Information:

    Oldest distributed LSN : (2120809:18651:1)

    Oldest non-distributed LSN : (2120809:18920:2)

    Replication is configured in Production only and not in my Development server.

    Please Help me to resolve the issue
