In my recent studies about Auto Growth, I took a look at one of our DB's at work and see the Transaction log has many Auto Growth events. My understanding is that the Auto Growth event is a blocking event and should be avoided. So my goal is to stop this recurring Auto Growth. Is this happening because the reserved Log space is too small and the transactions fill it up immediately triggering the Auto Growth? Also, In this DB, they are taking TLog backups every hour on the hour.
Here is a pic from the Disk Usage Report.
