  • RE: Replaying deadlocks

    While that could work, it's possible you could end up fixing deadlocks that you won't get in prod. Unless you have a lot of spare time, maybe rather look at...

  • RE: doubt on include column

    Edit: No, it's me who mis-read the question.

    A nonclustered index can only ever contain a column once. Hence if you explicitly reference a column that's implicitly in the index already,...

    Scheduled blackouts? Is the electrical grid overworked?

    Yup, since 2008.

  • RE: doubt on include column

    You can't include a column that's already in the key.

  • RE: How to find most used column in every table

    No, most used has nothing to do with 'should be indexed'. What if the most used is always in a select and never in the where. Indexing is a little...

  • RE: How to find most used column in every table

    No, and most used does not mean that it must be indexed. Indexing is a little more complex than that.

    See the entries on my blog in the indexing category.

  • RE: restore TDE backup onto new server

    Once more with feeling....

    Take a new backup of the certificate. If you can't, see my earlier post about changing the certificate.

    The existing password on the existing certificate backup is irrelevant...

  • RE: restore TDE backup onto new server

    What about the source server, where the database currently is? Or is that gone too?

    What, exactly, is the situation with regard to this database?

  • RE: The Number that shouldn't be a number

    Stephanie Giovannini (2/2/2015)


    What is best practice for storing time intervals in a table?
