  • RE: Replication Question

    If this is an interview question, I second what Dan said. Read up on replication so you can learn enough to get by.

    But if I'd been asked that question...

  • RE: Shrink 1TB SQL 2K - how long should it take?

    The only advice I can give you is to engage PerfMon and either Profiler or a server-side trace to see what (if any) activity is going on.

    It may very well...

  • RE: R2 problem with SQL Server Agent

    HowardW (3/23/2011)


    Can you connect to the named instance from Management Studio on a different machine or does it also get a connection error?

    This is a stand alone laptop. It's not...

  • RE: Shrink 1TB SQL 2K - how long should it take?

    Do you have lots of large data types or images on this database?

  • RE: Restore

    What version of Litespeed?

    How many files are you trying to restore?

    Can you post the script?

    EDIT: Almost forgot to ask, does the restoring box have Litespeed installed?

    I'm not going to make the duck tour, but I am planning on getting into Boston somehow for the dinner. I hate driving in any city and...

  • RE: Shrink 1TB SQL 2K - how long should it take?

    You didn't give it a target_size?

    Run SP_WHO2 to see if anything is blocking the process. Double-check the hard drive to make sure it isn't full. Double-check the tempdb (and...

  • RE: Replication Question

    Also, why are they not in synch? Did something break? Was something stopped?

  • RE: Restore

    Are you restoring natively, using the Litespeed console, or using a restore job / script created by Litespeed?

    Are you restoring to the same box that the backup was made on...

  • RE: Shrink 1TB SQL 2K - how long should it take?

    It depends.

    I know that answer blows, but it really does depend.

    1) Database shrinking or File shrinking?

    2) Through the GUI or a DBCC command?

    3) If you used the DBCC command, please...

  • RE: R2 problem with SQL Server Agent

    HowardW (3/23/2011)


    Is the SQL Server Browser Service Running?

    It wasn't. Just started it, retried starting SQL Server Agent Service and got the same error message.

    Again, what Gail said.

  • RE: R2 problem with SQL Server Agent

    I've just opened up a new connect issue with the details of the SQLAgent.Out.

    EDIT: OS is Vista Business 32 bit.

    Here's what I've posted:

  • RE: R2 problem with SQL Server Agent

    Gah. This is seriously annoying. Neither Repair nor an uninstall / reinstall fixed the issue.

    Any more thoughts?
