Symptom

Need to validate that DBCC commands fixed the issue with the free log space accounting in a database:

dbcc checktable (syslogs)
go
Checking table 'syslogs' (object ID 8): Logical page size is 2048 bytes.
Checking partition 'syslogs_8' (partition ID 8) of table 'syslogs'. The logical page size of this table is 2048 bytes.
The total number of data pages in partition 'syslogs_8' (partition ID 8) is 1395.
Partition 'syslogs_8' (partition ID 8) has 33019 data rows.
The total number of data pages in this table is 1395.
*** NOTICE: Space used on the log segment is 6395 pages (12.49 MB), 0.50%.
*** NOTICE: Space reserved on the log segment is 0 pages (0.00 MB), 0.00%.
*** NOTICE: Space free on the log segment is 1273605 pages (2487.51 MB), 99.50%.
Table has 33019 data rows.
DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact a user with System Administrator (SA) role.
