Phone off the hook is good. Probably first thing now is to set to vibrate, ignore most calls on the cell.

I've actually had to tell a VP to "go away" when I was managing. It was bad enough that I would go in to check on DBAs. Having him walk...

C'mon, Grant, it's not your writing.

Now the photoshopping for your editorial videos......:hehe::w00t:

Karl,

I have Battlefield Bad Company on Friday afternoons right now as well as my son has it cranked in the other room the last few weeks.

Hugo has a great explanation of what happens, and AFAIK, that's what happens.

The a) and b) points in his post are what are being handled in the error log when...

It's certainly rare to see someone stick with one team. Mauer looks like he will, Jeter, still a few guys that decide the most $$$ isn't the most important thing.

I don't think it's a good deal. I heard that Pujols will get an A-Rod type deal and St Louis doesn't want to pay it. Philly could, if they chose...

So a disk failure is a Windows/hardware event, not a SQL Server one. Can you see and access the disk from Windows? Once that is working, SQL Server should pick...

You're not changing servers, right? I mean keeping the Windows hosts (names, IPs, etc.) the same? Just changing storage? I think your original plan makes sense if you are doing...

#7 up front. I was an all-star catcher that year. A few years later my eyes went bad and I moved to 1B, outfield, and started my decline to mediocre,...
