How to reduce K2_log_1.ldf size?

One option is to archive old K2 data off into a backup database. K2 stores a lot of data about your workflow processes that it retains even after the workflow finishes. That data is probably not valuable after a certain amount of time (depends on your reporting requirements) so it makes sense to regularly archive it. Depending on what version of K2 you are running there are different approaches for archiving. K2 4.7 and below has the archive function available in the K2 workspace. K2 5 and above requires a script.

Additionally, check if your workflows are retaining large pieces of data in data fields. File data in particular… at the end of your workflow, clear out those values via “Transfer Data” events to prevent K2 from retaining them. Hope this helps!
