Perhaps you could take a differential backup instead of a log backup. That would not interfere with any other backup process (and you wouldn't have to apply any tran logs...

I've been a DBA on SQL Server for 20+ years and only for certain vendors have I ever had to go thru permission by permission. I have to admit, for...

Or should I specifically run sp_recompile TVF1 too?
Yes, recompile the table / view rather than individual proc(s).
If you recompile a proc, only that specific proc gets recompiled. If you...

Very strange.
Make sure there is no trigger on the table that might affect UPDATEs.
Make sure ID 23654 only matches one row in the table (so that you're not just seeing...

my mind says treat UNKNOWN as FALSE
Nope, as people have stated about that. In this area, it's your mind that's wrong. NULL ("UNKNOWN") is obviously not FALSE...

That is my understanding as well. But I'd still suggest talking to someone who specializes in licensing because it's quite complex now.

XML will definitely be slow.
It sounds like you're going from SQL Server to SQL Server. If that's the case, native format would be fastest.
