Why not Simple recovery model on TFS databases?
So, I was thinking about setting the recovery mode of the TFS databases to Simple permanently and switching to a nightly full backup each day. I assumed that we will always be able to do a restore to one of those full backups (maximum loss of data = 1 day) … No! Just don’t do this! The Backup/Restore Power Tool relies on SQL marked transactions to keep consistency across the TFS (and dependency products) databases. The SQL marked transaction implementation in the Backup/Restore Power Tool requires the SQL recovery mode to be set to Full. Thanks to the TFS product team for making this clear to me! Switching permanently to a Simple recovery mode could possibly result in a rollback to inconsistent TFS databases.
