  • RE: Weekly Maintenance job ends up with very large Transaction Log file

    Those are usually fine as defaults (and I believe it's what both of those scripts use by default).

  • RE: How to prevent user login to SQL Management Studio ?

    Another option, especially if there's a middle-tier for the application, is for the app to impersonate a different windows login for connections to the DB. That way, the users don't...

  • RE: How to prevent user login to SQL Management Studio ?

  • RE: Weekly Maintenance job ends up with very large Transaction Log file

    Don't use maintenance plans for index maintenance. It rebuilds everything regardless of whether the indexes need rebuilding or not. Use something like the scripts from http://www.sqlfool.com or http://ola.hallengren.com/Versions.html

  • RE: ssis package backup plan

    thang_ngo_2002 (1/16/2012)


    but is my solution correct ("db_denydatareader" to MASTER), it's very easy and simple ?
