  • RE: getting errors continuosly in the error log

    Suggest to the sharepoint admin that it would be better to take backups to the local disk and later move them to a network share?

  • RE: DBCC Shrinkfile to a size not working - why ?

    ifila (1/21/2009)

  • RE: sqlprov.exe

    It's used on Vista (and I think Server 2008) to add in an administrative user as, by default, the builtin\admins are no longer automatically sysadmin on those OSs. It's only...

  • RE: New-Features SQL 2008

    ok, is Latin1_General_CS_AS

  • RE: Co-worker Dispute

  • RE: Back up scripts

    You can use the windows scheduler and sqlcmd to do scheduled backups. It's not as easy as SQLAgent, but it does work. For sqlcmd, you'll want to use the -i...

    which process is faster and better for longevity?
