  • RE: Replication

    I know I keep banging on about PULL replication

    Totally agree, as long as the load of the subscription doesn't impact performance. This will require, in the words of MS, testing...

  • RE: Replication

    If that configuration is working for you, keep it.

    Keep an eye out for agents failing. You are going to be hitting a limit in windows soon for non-interactive desktop heap...

  • RE: Replication

    300 Distribution agent: Correct, thats the load i want to reduce, for Pull we have to change the complete replication scenario of our company(we can still check that later) but...

  • RE: Replication

    Pujain, you need to provide much more info, such as number of publications/publishers. Number of subscribers. Number of articles in the package. Is the distributor a remote that is...

  • RE: Replication Questions and Issues

    SQLKiwi: I'm not sure you're reading it correctly, it seems fine to me.

    cfradenburg: And the correct answer is actually marked correct unless I'm missing something.

    I have to disagree, and...

  • RE: DBCC INDEXDEFRAG

    Good question, but the answer does not match the question. The question does not ask about whether the command is being depricated. The answer is actually in the link posted,...

  • RE: update statistics?

    Unfortunately I can't get the space. We are playing with going out and getting some external drives to do some of this. Hopefully that will work.

    Can't copy db to other server and run checks over there?? I'm sure someone in your offcie is screaming over those budget figures right about now

    I sure wish we could....

  • RE: update statistics?

    Ninja,

    I find that to be really dangerous. The poin of checkdb is to find errors when the drive fails and to find them before the server needs to access them....

  • RE: update statistics?

    Ninja,

    One of the things I like is that there are plenty of parameters that can be passed to taylor the process to your requirements/needs. You can, in the execution string...
