  • RE: SQL 2005 - MDF deleted LOG file available

    It sounds like this latest question is something different from your original post. If that is indeed the case, please remember that new & unrelated questions should have their own...

  • RE: SQL 2005 - MDF deleted LOG file available

    chrisph (3/31/2010)


    Is it possible the server team could go back and restore the .mdf from their backup procedures?

    I would check/ask if they have "volume shadow copy" enabled on the server....

    No need steve, i want to delete almost all the logins. But thanks

    But disabling them first will guarantee you'll be able to delete them afterwards.

  • RE: Need freq. updated, writeable copy of OLTP db for reporting

    Glad we could help. BTW, setting up a restore as an auto-job is probably going to be the hardest part. Once you have it set up, you can pretty much...

  • RE: Install SQL server 2005 developer edition

    If the software was already staged, chances are that's why it's skipping the software check. It's probably been short-cutted to do so.

    Basically, you'll have to manually do the checks to...

  • RE: Rebuild and Reorganize Indexes

    Actually, I just figured out what's going on in terms that I can understand.

    My explanation to myself is:

    It's not that you have a blocked index, because honestly, an Index...

  • RE: Rebuild and Reorganize Indexes

    Ah. We posted at the same time. I see your explanation now.

    Do you have the text of the Blocked Index errors you were getting?

  • RE: Rebuild and Reorganize Indexes

    Ditto to what Jason said. I'm just confused because I don't know what a blocked index is and what allowing page locks has to do with it.

    If you could clarify...

  • RE: Pros & Cons of setting the Initial Size of a Log File to its estimated Max growth

    since he knows the max size the log can reach, is it not ok to keep the initial size and max size the same with auto shrink disabled?...

  • RE: Use multiple data files for large content database

    Do not mistake "want" for "need". There is no need. Technically, you could run a 1 TB size database on one file and one filegroup.

    The idea of splitting your database...

  • RE: Drop all connections

    The one thing to note about killing connections this way is that it does NOT prevent those connections from reconnecting after they've been disconnected. The best way to do that...

  • RE: Pros & Cons of setting the Initial Size of a Log File to its estimated Max growth

    I agree with Grant. If you can do it, go for it. I don't see any Cons to the situation and only Pros.

    Just don't make the mistake of setting Max...

    What exactly is your definition of a "Blocked Index"?

    I've never heard that term before and I find myself wondering what it has to do with allow_page_locks being on or...
