  • RE: Remove SQL Server Installation

    Welsh Corgi (4/7/2012)


    I could not eve log on so I removed SQL Server 2008 R2.

    Why didn't you just put it single user mode and add the appropriate account into sysadmins?

    Before going any further I would like you to confirm exactly the configuration of the logical disks, also is this server a virtual machine by any chance?

    Well, I had been running the index creation with WITH SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON, so wouldn't the sort space be happening on C?

    Yes it would hit C drive

    Other things to consider

    How many logical drives are you using?

    What are the physical disk configs underneath these?

    System dbs on C
