    Usually, most of the time, corruption is due to something wrong in the IO subsystem. That's everything from filter drivers right down to the disks, so there's lots of moving...

  • RE: WITH (NOLOCK) Question

    Michael Valentine Jones (2/28/2015)


    You should consider setting the database to Read Committed Snapshot.

    This. Absolutely this.

  • RE: reclaim disk space by shinking the log file after a TLOG backup

    If it's never had a transaction log backup, then it's probably safe to assume no one really cares about point in time recovery.

    This is a SQL Server forum, not Exchange (or whatever uses OST). Maybe start by finding a forum for the product you're having a problem with?

    PHYData DBA (2/25/2015)


    Feral children don't read either. Please read the TechNet SQL BOL article called Heap Structures.

    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188270(v=sql.105).aspx
