  • RE: Need Help to choose sql server edition for cloud server.

    That's incredibly unusual. You can't get single-core processors for servers. It's probably a virtual machine and that's messing up winaudit. If that's the case, you'll have to speak to the...

  • RE: Need Help to choose sql server edition for cloud server.

    If it's a web app (you can't count users) it has to be processor licensing. Note that's processor, not core. Two quad-core CPUs require 2 processor licenses, not 8.

    Possibly they haven't been needed since. Stats are updated the first time that they are used after the 20% threshold is reached. If no query has tried to use them...

    You shouldn't have a shrink job. The recommended practice with the log is to back it up regularly, let it reach the size it needs to be for regular operations...

  • RE: Can I copy ONLY the .mdf file to another server, to move a database? Can I make the data file consistent w/o the T-Log?

    Even a shut down of SQL won't do it. (actually, that should be 'especially' a shut down won't do it.)

    Then there's probably no problem here. If the backups are succeeding and the log is not growing, there's no problem. Wait reuse reasons are normal, as long as they're not...
