Shrink Database Task
The Shrink Database task reduces the size of SQL Server database data and log files. For more information, see Shrinking a Database.
By using the Shrink Database task, a package can shrink files for a single database or multiple databases.
The Shrink Database task encapsulates a DBCC SHRINKDATABASE command, including the following arguments and options:
- database_name
- target_percent
- NOTRUNCATE or TRUNCATEONLY.
If the Shrink Database task shrinks multiple databases, the task runs multiple SHRINKDATABASE commands, one for each database. All instances of the SHRINKDATABASE command use the same argument values, except for the database_name argument. For more information, see DBCC SHRINKDATABASE (Transact-SQL).
