SQL Server Management Studio から復旧モデル変更

This is usually fine, but sometimes you can't use SQL Server Management Studio, for example, if you're using a shared database in an external service. In that case, you can run SQL to change the recovery model.

If you want to make changes in SQL, run the following SQL: If it is a database of external services, run it with a tool or program tailored to that site.

ALTER DATABASE [データベース名] SET RECOVERY 復旧オプション;

For Recovery Options, enter one of the following:

FULL completeness
BULK_LOGGED Bulk Logging
SIMPLE simplicity

To run SQL, you usually need master privileges. The same applies to external services, but there are cases where change authority is granted for each account, so please check for each external service.
