  • RE: Created Full Backup for User Defined Databases To Disk with Restore Verify Only option

    Just note that, unless the backup is taken with the CHECKSUM option, Verify does not guarantee that the backup will be restorable. It checks mostly the headers of the backup.

  • RE: How to find Index size in Sql 2000

    sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats is a SQL 2005 view, it's not available in SQL 2000.

    Use DBCC SHOWCONTIG. As one of the output columns it has 'pages scanned'

  • RE: Know how old an execution plan is

    It's in sys.dm_exec_query_stats

    Be careful, there's a 1-many relationship between sys.dm_exec_cached_plans and sys.dm_exec_query_stats. Group by the plan handle.
