  • RE: Backup large database for datawarehouse

    Bru Medishetty (11/17/2009)


    You can start with a Weekly Full backup and daily Differential backup (if needed twice a day).

    Monitor the Database growth over a few weeks period, and then decide...

    Good catch, yes that should be a left outer join. Not enough "coffee" this morning. Getting into work at 6:00 AM local time starting this week and obviously...

    I got the following data:

    2009-11-16 07:05:34.010 Monday

    2009-11-16 07:05:34.010 Monday

    2009-11-16 14:05:34.017 Monday

    2009-11-16 14:05:34.017 Monday

    The seconds were different. So the answer is false. I want my score corrected.

    Actually, the seconds are...

    Lynn, you have a valid point but if you were to show those times to a client, they would only see the output not the representation. So, for...

  • RE: Inserting Millions Of records

    You may want to try this, and you may also want to be sure that you have an index on each of the table on the column email.

  • RE: T-SQL

    Also, I think bitbucket resides somewhere on the east coast of the USA, not in the UK.

    I think getdate() = getutcdate() would return false in your time zone, so I think they're probably different!

    Everyone is looking at the values, yes, they are "different", but both...

    LMGTFY version 2.0:

    Okay, how do you do that one? I'd like to add it to my "toolbox" right along with lmgtfy.

  • RE: T-SQL

    I actually answered true, and here is why, if you run this:

    select getdate(), getutcdate()

    you may get a result like this:

    2009-11-17 06:16:57.527 2009-11-17 13:16:57.527

    They appear different, but are actually the same....

    Can Anybody help me explain group access and conn strings?

    Looks to me like you did a good job of explaiining group access. Let's see what the OP says...

  • RE: Need correct data type

    You could also do this:

    select left(convert(varchar, getdate(), 108),5)

    Never mind this. Again, brain dead for a bit, misread the original query.

  • RE: HUGE Massive Ridiculous SQL 2000 file sizes! Something MUST be wrong! Right?

    Why do you think that is rediculous? It just means that the data has many redundant bit patterns that allow it to be highly compressed.

  • RE: no tables created under sys tables

    Because there aren't any system "tables". You will find those under system views now. Starting with SQL Server 2005 you can no longer update system tables directly.

    You should have used LMGTFY. 😉
