How to avoid Tran Fail Log error with update statements

[vj]

I have an update statement which updates 100,00 records and most often
I end up in a tran fail log error , is there any option which would
enable me to commit the updates in batches.

Please let me know if there are any work arounds.

Thanks,
Vj.

What type of logging are you using? If it's circular; then you've filled
up all of the primary and secondary logs. A simple solution is to
increase the log size or the number of logs. If this is a production
system; circular logging has other (negative) recovery implications.

You could use a WHERE predicate to restrict your updates to a portion of
your rows. Multiple UPDATES can be coded with a COMMIT between them.
