  • RE: Index Fragmenting

    You have not provided any information on how big this table is

    As has been said, you have not said anything about this. If the table is so small that...

  • RE: Refreshing the data warehouse without hurting anybody

    The latest issue to arise is that if people query a datamart (the fact and dim tables, not the cube) while a refresh is in progress they'll get the wrong...

  • RE: Temp Tables Persisting in the TembDB

    Thanks for the clarification. Good stuff.

  • RE: Temp Tables Persisting in the TembDB

    Interesting. I'll have to do more investigation.

    @Gail--I've normally used #temptables to load objects (e.g. offices, jobsites etc) to which someone had access. This table would then connect with...

  • RE: Temp Tables Persisting in the TembDB

    Can't this be overcome by explicitly dropping the temp tables in the connection. Yes, in theory it goes away, but my understanding is that it doesn't go away in...

  • RE: Complete Definitions

    Heck, many of the dbs I've managed were < 1GB, so complexity doesn't matter. In those cases, striping doesn't help. It hampers restores when I need remote hands.

    I agree....

  • RE: Complete Definitions

    It is definitely not so.

    Good to know. Thanks. I would have had a false sense of security.

  • RE: Complete Definitions

    I'm with Gail, somewhat on this. It's not that I think it's harder for me to restore or recover, but it is slightly less readable and confusing. That's the concern...

  • RE: Complete Definitions

    Gah! No, don't do that.

    Corruption is 99% of the time an IO subsystem problem. A misbehaving IO subsystem isn't going to check how often a table is updated before it...

  • RE: Reducing Index Fragmentaion during Inserts

    You should also generally expect a 20% reduction in SELECT performance and a 20% growth in the size of the index and a 20% increase in the memory usage of...

  • RE: Complete Definitions

    Yes, you can do that. Has it achieved anything?

    I'm not fond of making decisions because 'that's the way it's done'. I make design decisions based on expected usage or measured...

    But if the filegroup would become corrupt, I've made it harder to recover.

    Not necessarily. Depends on the type of corruption. If the system tables get hit, that's a full...

  • RE: Reducing Index Fragmentaion during Inserts

    Just a really simple idea.

    Try setting PAD_INDEX = ON and FILLFACTOR = 80 as an initial step.

    I recently did something like this in a situation you describe and it worked...

  • RE: Complete Definitions

    My experience is that lots of times I run into databases or I leave them and others struggle to deal with DR situations because they're confused by something that isn't...

  • RE: Complete Definitions

    Actually, when given the opportunity I would also create a separate file group for the data and make it the default file group. I would go even further if it...
