  • RE: CAN PLE take down a server

    Means your IO subsystem will be getting driven very hard, high utilisation, and probably slow queries as a result. As I mentioned, I've seen a server where the PLE never...

  • RE: Adding ndf files to tempdb and shrinking the mdf

    Having multiple files on the same drive will alleviate PageLatch waits on the allocation structures in TempDB. That's why it's recommended. It will NOT help with PageIOLatch waits, as those...

    Striping the backup to multiple backup files can help you reduce the backup/restore time.

    In my experience, I have seen no difference between restoring...

  • RE: Incorrect syntax near DEFAULT

    The syntax for adding a default to an existing column is a little weird

    ALTER TABLE Projects

    ADD DEFAULT SYSTEM_USER FOR create_user

  • RE: restore to a newer version of sql server

    Define 'not working'.

    A backup from 2005 can be restored to 2008 R2 without any problems, so there's possibly something wrong with your backup file, or syntax.

  • RE: Page Life Expectancy

    My laptop's got more than that...

    Seriously though, read the two chapters of the book that I recommended. Problems are not identified with a single counter value or setting.

  • RE: How to restore a database using mdf and ldf files in Sql 2008

    Let me say this first. I have never heard of a case where a drive crashed, the mdf and ldf were recovered from the damaged drive and worked. Usually it's...

  • RE: CAN PLE take down a server

  • RE: CAN PLE take down a server

    The question you probably need to be asking, is what was running that would cause the PLE to go to 0. If you can answer that (and it'll probably need...

  • RE: Schedule DBCC Checkdb in SQL 2005 Express?

    Honestly, much the same way you do the backups, a script to run checkDB and the windows scheduler.

  • RE: Adding ndf files to tempdb and shrinking the mdf

    Just adding data files is not going to fix PageIOLatch waits, unless the files are spread across multiple independent drives/IO channels.

  • RE: Nested loop join operator estimate rows is 10000 in compatibility level 2014.

    Bouke Bruinsma (11/17/2015)


    There is a void statistic on t1 with norecompute to prevent recompilations. It cannot be stale by design.

    And that, right there, is the cause. Useless statistics resulting...
