I was just wondering if this research is relevant for the standard and enterprise editions if SQL 2005 as it was generated against the 2005 express edition beta. Are DBCC commands fully compatible between express and the other editions of SQL Server ?

Still, very interesting article.

Thanks guys. Yes Steve, so far as I know, DBCC commands are common to all versions of the database engine, although I would not rule out minor differences in the effects that they have, or whether they return any useful data for all versions. As soon as I can get my hands on the standard/enterprise edition, I'll post back here to let you know.

The article is very helpful.

I wonder if anyone knows about the new syntax of DBCC PSS ? It seems like it does not accept the session_id for now...
