Tempdb in sql server 2005

  • Hi

    what is maximum size of temp db?

    Subha

  • It can't get any larger than the disk array(s) it is placed on.

  • Same as any other database

    A little over 500 000 TB.

  • the max capacity for sql server can be found here

    Temp Db is like any other so the max size as mentioned would be 524,272 terabytes.

    However in practice it would be a LOT less.

    If this is an interview question, then it is a fairly bad one..

  • Already did.
