  • RE: Recovering database

  • RE: Creating sp_who5, need advice

    I copy/pasted this directly into QA (SQL2000 sp3) and it will not compile. Errors as follows:

    Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Procedure sp_who5, Line 38

    Line 38: Incorrect syntax near...

  • RE: Backup/Restore suggestion required????

    Karl is absolutely correct. The compression size and speed of the backup (and restores) using third-party tools can be huge. We had a 250Gb database that compressed to around 32Gb...

  • RE: Identify Databases that as no longer used/connected to

  • RE: Best backup compression tools

    I've used Lightspeed for years and recently SqlSafe (due to overall costs). Both worked well for compression and SQLSafe for encryption (didn't use that feature in Lightspeed). Backup and restore...

  • RE: DBCC CheckDB show no errors but I get Error 605 when doing an INDEX rebuild

  • RE: DBCC CheckDB show no errors but I get Error 605 when doing an INDEX rebuild

    Ran it when I got to work today, prior to doing anything to the indexes. Still no error. Also did a checktable, nothing. I did a DBCC DBREINDEX on the...

  • RE: DBCC CheckDB show no errors but I get Error 605 when doing an INDEX rebuild

    It's all bundled into one maintenance plan. The CheckDB for this particular database ran at 12:00:59am until 12:03:26am, reporting zero errors. The index build ran at 01:03:22am and failed at...

  • RE: Database logical file naming question

    Actually, about a dozen databases on one server have the same logical name. I had never messed with the names before, always accepting the defaults on create. And I was...
