SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario. In a Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway (TMG) 2010 environment, you use Microsoft SQL Server remote logging, and the remote database name includes a hyphen (-) character. In this scenario, no logs are written to the remote SQL Server database, and many large logging queue files are created in the install_dir\Logs directory. Such file creation could cause disk space to become exhausted, depending on the traffic.
