  • RE: Backup job can''''t start because previous backup is still running

    Maybe not.  After all, it isn't an "essential to keep the server running" system process.  It's just a backup process.  You should be able to kill that.

    Juan,

    Do you have any SQL Server experience at all?  SQL 2000 or SQL 2005?

    Just curious.

  • RE: Not receive database weekly in the last two weeks

    Steve,

    Maybe the site should have an area with a newsletter archive.  That way people who don't get their newsletter delivered for some odd reason can go out and download or...

  • RE: Not receive database weekly in the last two weeks

    Was there a newsletter on 8/1?

    If there wasn't, I haven't had any problems regarding newsletter delivery.  If there was, this is the only instance I've encountered.  I get my delivery...

  • RE: Do what I said?

    Loner,

    In the situation where your boss says something is easy and you don't think it is, try sitting down with him and asking about it.  Tell him something like, "Okay,...

  • RE: Recomendations and opinions please

    Juan,

    I wouldn't wait for the 2008 certs to come out.  It'll at least be a year (probably two) before any decent study materials come out.  Besides, you get your MCITP...

  • RE: Backup job can''''t start because previous backup is still running

    You should not try and stop / restart the services until you've tried to kill that particular SPID.

    "Kill <spid>" is the command.  It may take a while, so be patient. ...

  • RE: Heap indexes on functions?

    So essentially anything saved to the system that uses a table variable could potentially be listed in sys.indexes as a type "Heap" then.

    Hmmm.  I suppose that makes sense.  Would be...

    I have no idea.  And since SPIDs and object_IDs can vary per database, I'm not sure you'll be able to get an answer for that.
