You have your logmode set for rollforward and a DB backup should have
initiated...
Once the DB is backed up your log will return to a low value.
Check your DB trigger

I run mine in logmode normal and have across 12 servers for 4 years, so far
so good
In normal mode you shouldn't see the log ever get close to full, unless it
is small, you have lots of activity and a dbbackup is running.
