    Thanks. Does it matter what is my mAXDOP?

    Copy your linked server query into an 'Execute SQL' task in SSIS. That way you get the best of both worlds!;-)

    Also, in general, an OLE DB destination will be faster than an ADO.NET destination. So, I would switch back to OLE DB and do as happycat suggests and make sure...

    Sure, not all types of fragmentation are equally problematic, but the terms 'internal fragmentation' and 'external fragmentation' are ambiguous enough that if I say 'Internal fragmentation is a major...

    I would simply recommend staying away from the terms 'internal fragmentation' and 'external fragmentation' entirely as there is no clear definition.

    In general I would tend to agree. If presented...

    That is... not how I learned the term Internal Fragmentation.

    Gail's point about attaining a definition from the person speaking about fragmentation is very appropriate here. I made...

  • RE: cdosysmail works for a few days then stops

    If you consider leaving OLE Automation procs off a benefit, then yes, I agree. Of course, that all falls into whether you have a properly locked down system or...

    Also, why would you recommend using "Database Mail" instead of CDOSysMail?

    One of the primary reasons is to make sending email from the database an asynchronous operation. When send...

    Is is safe to assume your using Standard or Enterprise Edition since you said you have SQL Agent running? i.e. that you are not using Express Edition?

    If so, then I...
