  • RE: Fulltext with Dot(.) search

    I may be wrong on this, but I'm pretty sure that SQL Server full-text search uses the full stop as one of its word delimiters--in other words, if you have...

  • RE: What happens if the Domain Controller is down?

    I think it would depend how long the DC is down for. I can see the machine using cached credentials for a while, but eventually it's going to have to...

  • RE: Looking for a no-cost issue tracker

    Of course, all this lockdown presumably only applies to Windows machines...can't you set up Linux on an old PC and put Eventum or something on it? πŸ˜›

  • RE: SQLSERVR.exe *32 Peak Mem Usage > 3GB (!?)

    I believe that a 32-bit process running on a 64-bit OS actually has access to a full 4Gb of virtual address space, because there aren't any hardware or drivers taking...

  • RE: How Far Will You Go (To Work)?

    Speaking personally, I would rather have a slightly longer commute than move deeper into the city to get to work--I like being able to see the occasional piece of greenery...

  • RE: It’s Good to Eat Alone

    I pretty much always eat alone, and use the opportunity to do non-work-related web browsing whenever possible!

  • RE: Niagara Falls

    No, I typed NULL because I started life as a C programmer and some habits die *really* hard...

  • RE: Niagara Falls

    SQLkiwi (8/1/2011)

    That explains it nicely - and Peter Larsson (SwePeso) added pretty much the exact same example as this QotD in the comments.

    It's still realistically a bug, though--even if CHAR(0)...

  • RE: restoring system db's to new server

    Elliott Whitlow (7/28/2011)Model is only needed for new databases

    tempdb is created anew every time SQL Server is started, so you need the model database to be there or else SQL...

  • RE: What happens to Transaction Log chain if a backup fails?

    Why not take all the backups to the internal hard drive of the server and then have a scheduled task to copy them to the external USB drive in the...

  • RE: Time for a ROWID?

    I'm not sure increasing the row length in SQL would help much--after all, the largest data types are stored in off-row data pages anyway, and a properly normalised database surely...

  • RE: AMD vs Intel

    If your CPUs are, indeed, "chilling and not doing anything", why are you assuming it's them that's at fault? Sounds more likely to be an I/O issue if you're not...
