  • RE: backup schdule

    Why the 6 hour restriction ? Maybe the backups will not have a big impact on users. Schedule the high priority backups at the beginning, and maybe it's ok...

  • RE: table is slow

    Are there 2000 records in the table, or is 2000 the number returned based on a 'where' clause or join to another table.

  • RE: Restore

    Maybe connectivity across the network dropped ?

    You could try copying the file to the local server, then run the restore locally.

  • RE: file extension

    I think you will need a cleanup step for each individual extension. And don't include the "dot" ..... use TRN, not .TRN

    Also, be sure you are on at...

    In my scenario, you would need a t-log backup sometime after 3 pm, and before the next full backup.

    Assuming all the backups are intact and restorable, why...

  • RE: Point in time restore

    You said you're only doing a t-log backup once a day. In my scenario, you would need a t-log backup sometime after 3 pm, and before the next full backup....

    What If:

    Monday 1 am Full Backup

    Monday 10...

  • RE: Point in time restore

    If you're consulting, and there's a disaster, maybe you'll get more billable hours to help fix it. 😀

    Maybe someone in the business end needs to know they have 23...

  • RE: Point in time restore

    What is the reason for not taking frequent t-log backups ? I can't think of any bad reasons, let alone good reasons.

  • RE: Point in time restore

    "...I'm wondering is my tlog backup is actually usable to restore to any point in time during the day. ..."

    Only up to the point of your most recent t-log backup....

  • RE: Point in time restore

    A while back I did a restore from BackupExec, then applied transaction logs without a problem. I assume your BackupExec is a Normal "BACKUP DATABASE", and not a file backup...

  • RE: "Could not find stored procedure 'master.dbo.xp_delete_file'

    Maybe you could make a 2000 Maint Plan just to delete the old files, and keep your 2005 plan for the backups.

  • RE: dump backup for backward compatibility

    From the article: " ... The DUMP statement is included for backward compatibility ..."

    You are misinterpreting "backward compatibility "

    It means that old syntax (from SQL 6, 7, 2000 etc...) can...

  • RE: Replicating Tables on Different Publications / Schedules

    When using replication, I often found it useful to set up a test publisher & subscriber database to try out different things before going to production.

    Thank you miltman that works.

    I guess I have to create a parameter to select

    the company name.

    Thanks a lot

    I don't see how a parameter will help you.
