change max degree of parallelism

  • Dear all,

    I will need to change the max degree of parallelism from 2 to 6. Do I have to restart the SQL Server instance in order to take effect?

    thanks.

  • No, you will just need to run the reconfigure statement.

  • thank you

  • Sorry. If I use the GUI instead of the sql, will it also automatically assume the change? Or do I have to restart it?

  • You still won't need to restart SQL Server if you make the change through the GUI. If you are unsure what happens when you make changes using the GUI always script out the change so you can check what is happening.

  • Thanks
