Filegroups vs multiple files

  • Hi all

    Other that piecemeal restores what advantage is there in having multiple filegroups over having multiple files in a single file group?

    Thanks

  • With separate file groups you can specify exactly where tables or partitions will be located.

    The probability of survival is inversely proportional to the angle of arrival.

  • Objects are create on FILEGROUPS. This allows for them to be proportionally filled over multiple files depending on files sizes. This allows you to spread data reads/writes over multiple LUNs should you choose to.

    You cannot control which objects go in which files.

  • Thanks both for the replies 🙂
