  • Reply To: Audit fails when using a gMSA on a network share

    To me this sounds like the audit is running as a different account than the backup.

    When you create the audit file on the local drive, who is the "owner" of...

    The above is all just my opinion on what you should do. 
    As with all advice you find on a random internet forum - you shouldn't blindly follow it.  Always test on a test server to see if there is negative side effects before making changes to live!
    I recommend you NEVER run "random code" you found online on any system you care about UNLESS you understand and can verify the code OR you don't care if the code trashes your system.

    Since it is going out to a network share, it could be that someone else is doing something on that share at the same time as your backup.  I am...

  • Reply To: SSRS 2016 giving 500 error

    My first step - check the logs.

    Is the error coming from the load balancer or SSRS?  Do you get the same error if  you go directly to the machine rather...

    Check your execution plans.  That will be the best way to tell what is changing with performance.

    As for returning NULL when there is data, chances are the stored procedure is...

  • Reply To: Backup taking too long - SQL Server 2016

    How busy is the disk when you go to do the backup?  Is it an SSD or HDD?

    I have a database that is roughly 400 GB and it can back...

  • Reply To: cpu and memory connection in sql server

    My guess (as I've not seen your system or that behavior before) is that it isn't actually fixing anything.  What I expect is happening is you have a query that...

  • Reply To: Backup taking too long - SQL Server 2016

    If memory serves, ASYNC_IO_COMPLETION wait type is related to writing to disk.  Quick google tells me that is correct:

    Occurs while waiting for non-data-file disk I/O to complete. For example while...

  • Reply To: Poor peformance

    It depends on the query.  If the query is an INSERT or an UPDATE query, adding an index may slow it down.

    You can update statistics though without creating indexes.  Those...

  • Reply To: SQL Server - Issues with Update When Summing Source + Target Columns in Batches

    The issue is with your UPDATE.

    So lets run through this code logically.

    I think you forgot the execution plan.  Without that it is incredibly hard to say with any certainty what would help.

    indexes may help, or you may already have the ones...

  • Reply To: Carriage Return in a STUFF Statement ??
