Confessions of an IT Manager, 2nd Edition

The software industry is, just occasionally, more absurd than one would dare to imagine. Having spent most of his working life in its clutches, Phil Factor has pretty much "seen it all" and what's more he's prepared to tell what he knows. The second edition of Phil's "Confessions of an IT Manager" contains Phil's full repertoire of tales of institutional mayhem and software projects gone awry.

Question of the Day

Switching Schemas I

I run this query:

SELECT 
 s.name AS schemaname
 , o.name AS objectname
 FROM sys.objects o
 INNER JOIN sys.schemas s ON s.schema_id = o.schema_id
 WHERE o.name = 'Beer'
I get one row back for an object named dbo.beer. There is an ETL schema and both of these are nonpartitioned tables. I run this code:
ALTER TABLE dbo.beer switch TO etl.beer
What happens?
