Bkp - Insert

  • I have a job that has started running as per shcedule which does bulk insert on a database and without realising that i have started backing up the same database before this job kicked off, its been an hour but still i dont see these sessions blocking each other, what would happend in the worst case scenario. Does my bulk insert job get into some problems?

  • back up and job wil run in two different trnsactions so there would be no conflict but i am not sure that if backup is ON and job get started but i still think there would be no blocking. ACID property will help here 🙂

    I work only to learn Sql Server...though my company pays me for getting their stuff done;-)

  • can i create or alter indexes during the backup ?

  • yes you can create
