  • RE: Nested Loops Joins

    Make sure the statistics on all tables are up to date -- obsolete statistics could cause SQL to choose the wrong type of join.

    Of course SQL sometimes chooses the wrong...

  • RE: One skinny table or many wide tables?

    You should be fine with a single table provided you cluster the table by:

    ( [Time], MnemonicId ) --if I understand Mnemonic id correctly, as the original telemetry data src

    Uniqueidentifiers are...

  • RE: CREATE VIEW permissions

    CREATE VIEW permission denied in database 'MWC2'

    Looks to me like there is an explicit DENY of CREATE VIEW permissions somewhere.

    DENY will override/"cancel" an equivalent GRANT.

  • RE: shrinking the log file

    Kenneth.Fisher (8/20/2012)


    Ya'll are making the assumption that the problem is ReportServerTempDB. It's entirely possible that 400 GB is the correct size for it and there are databases that are...

  • RE: shrinking the log file

    It should be, it's a temporary work db, just like tempdb :-).

  • RE: shrinking the log file

    You don't need to take a log backup if the db is in simple recovery model -- indeed, you can't: SQL doesn't allow a log backup to occur while the...

  • RE: shrinking the log file

    Since their current log drive is full, they are in a tough situation.

    Without a DBA there, to me the safest thing to shrink is a temp db.

    It could try to...

  • RE: shrinking the log file

    mr.neil.bryan (8/17/2012)

    Would shrinking this database file resolve our issue?

    Possibly.

    Since it is the Reporting temp db, if you have a lot of free space in it, I would go...

    Scott, as a post-script:

    Don't assume that your opinion, unbacked by data, is going to convince people of anything. Repeatedly asserting "Erwin>Visio" without any sort of analysis at all...

  • RE: Database Redesign

    Stefan Krzywicki (8/1/2012)

    You still haven't defined what you consider a complete modeling tool. Or what it requires beyond the "very nice pictures" you mention.

    Yes, I did. To repeat, separate...

    So what does Erwin do that Visio doesn't?

    I didn't think Visio even offered a logical data model (i.e. Entity modeling vs table modeling),...

    When I had the choice between Erwin & Visio, I chose Visio.

    Wow. You must not be a DBA or a data modeler 🙂 .
