Possible reallocation of SQL db size?

[dan231]

I need to contact a SQL db company in order to possibly reallocate the db size. I have been getting size errors. I would like to find out if this is even possible to do. I have read that it isn't possible to reallocate but you have to create a new larger db and import all the data into the new db.

Can anyone verify this?

Thanks

You can allow the database files to grow or not. The one I've had most problems with in the past is the archive file. If it is not set to grow or if it is not backed up frequently enough, you will get errors that "seem" vague.

What problem are you having?

Is there a way to check to see if it is set to grow?
I can't find the error in the logs, but it said something to the effect of file size error - but I can't remember exactly
