    I don't think it's bad. @=)  Head over to http://www.popcornPress.com and click the "Brand New" link on the right.  The book is available as a softcover or in ebook...

  • RE: Database Administration Certification

    I doubt it'll be one book this time around.  MS has been working their pants off trying to make all the certs harder, with lots of simulations and bizarre bits...

  • RE: Upgrades

    Could it be that they had that many problems in beta testing that they had to keep increasing the versions?  I know there were a lot of rewrites going on,...

  • RE: Schedule a .bat file as job within SQL Server

    Absolutely!  I do it all the time.

    Do an Operating System Command task in the job.  Then use the following syntax: <Drive>:\<folder>\<batchFileName>.bat

    That's all there is to it.  Well, other than scheduling...

  • RE: msdb and jobs

    First, try restoring MSDB from MSDB2 as someone else has already recommended.  If that doesn't work, for some reason, there is another option... BUT <insert caveat here>...

    I had a bizarre...

  • RE: Burnt Out

    I don't necessarily think that you have to make friends at your job.  Heaven knows, there are a lot of people who, when they leave a company, never talk to...

  • RE: Problems making a dynamic flat file connection string

    Muhanned,

    On the task that's giving you the error, try setting the DelayValidation property to True.  It might be giving you the error because it's trying to validate something (pre-package run)...

  • RE: Can anyone be so green?

    Yikes!  I totally missed the Exchange reference. (Good catch, Gail!)  That too could be a huge part of your problem.  I've never heard of anyone successfully having Exchange cohabitate with SQL Server...

  • RE: Can anyone be so green?

    Unfortunately, no.  It doesn't work that way.

    Raid 1 config?  That might be your problem.  Raid 1 takes FOREVER to write to, double the time it would usually take to write...

  • RE: What Kind of DBA Are You?

    Galanda,

    Sounds like you're in the vague DBA/Developer realm.  If you maintain any sort of database, that qualifies you as a DBA, though maybe entry level if all you do is...

  • RE: Can anyone be so green?

    Rob,

    Don't worry.  Profiler isn't a grenade. @=) You can't kill SQL by using it unless your system is so screwed up that it's hardly running at all and from what I...

  • RE: Default Constraints & Not NULL

    Unfortunately, I can't leave the column out of the insert because I want to copy over non-default values from the database.  And since I have no control over other developers...

  • RE: Database Administration Certification

    You don't have to take any class or buy any book.  Neither are actually cert exam pre-reqs as far as Microsoft is concerned.  Though they will eagerly sell you both (as will...
