  • RE: Very large and slow differential backup

    There is another option.  Make some of your filegroups READ ONLY, then backup only the filegroups that are READ/WRITE.  @=)  (see Partial Backups in BOL)

    Or do put your large table on its...

  • RE: High CPU usage after a backup

    I'd recommend running SQL Server Profiler to see if there are any other jobs running after the backup which are still using those resources.  If not, run Windows Performance Monitor...

  • RE: "Execute As" and xp_cmdshell

    Also, as an FYI, while xp_cmdshell by itself is considered a security issue, it is disabled by default in SQL Server 2005.  So if you (and no one else) has...

  • RE: Full Text query times out on execution

    Check BOL for the following keywords "Full-Text Search [SQL Server], performance".  There's a ton of information on the page, so I'm not going to quote it, but I think your...

  • RE: Very large and slow differential backup

    To answer the second question first, I'm betting the USB connector is the issue for the slowness of the backup.  USB isn't quite up to speed with other disk drive...

  • RE: Multiple collation and tempdb

    Individual database collations can be "changed" when they are created, but the System DBs get their settings from the server itself.  So, if you want to change TempDB, you'll have...

  • RE: Importing Identity field values to SqlServer 2005

    Simpler way to do this?  No.  SSIS is capable of doing so much more than DTS that the this task has become a bit more complicated rather than being streamlined.

    However,...

    Glad I could help.  @=)  And my apologies for the initial mis-direction.

  • RE: Importing Identity field values to SqlServer 2005

    You are correct.  I mis-spoke.

    Try this:  Pull over a Data Flow Task.  Double-click it or Click the Data Flow Tab and arrow down to the Data Flow Task if it's...

  • RE: Importing Identity field values to SqlServer 2005

    Are you just doing a data transfer?  No triggers, etc.  If so, maybe what you need to do is resort to an Execute SQL Task and stick a SELECT statement...

  • RE: Importing Identity field values to SqlServer 2005

    Is this field truly a plain vanilla Identity column?  Does the destination table have two different columns, one pulling the Ident from the source and the other its own Ident...

  • RE: Importing Identity field values to SqlServer 2005

    You need Identity Insert set to ON. 

    The best way to do this is to insert two Execute SQL Tasks, one before the import and one after the import.  The first...

    If you look under Tools -> Options in SSMS, you'll see an item called Source Control.  If you set it to Visual SourceSafe, you can create (inside SSMS) projects that...

    Glad you got yours working.
