  • RE: microsoft support

    Yes and no. You can call and they will try to help you with SQL 2000. however no QFEs or hotfixes will be built if you have a bug or...

  • RE: Splitting up a large database

    I'm with Jeff if you can make this happen. The other thing that happens is a web server, or client browser, can cache images, resulting in better performance. That's if...

  • RE: MOVING SQL SERVER FILES

    I recommend detach/attach if you've never done this. You could easily mess up your integrity and miss some data to move if you aren't paying attention with backup/restore.

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    I'll second the Elric series. My son also loved the Artemis Fowl and Pendragon series. More sci-fi, but at 10 he thought they were excellent.

  • RE: Estimating Priorities

    skjoldtc (7/23/2009)


    I'll let somebody else make a joke about the "shiny bits". 😀

    I didn't get a good quote here about shiny bits. I kind of forced it. I'd welcome suggestions...

  • RE: Estimating Priorities

    Thanks and one minor note. Someone pinged me about me using freedom, as in liberty, when saying that it can be a problem. My use was intended to be freedom...

  • RE: Page count

    Are you talking filegroups?

    The objects are all in one location, in the filegroup on disk. Not sure it matters other than trivia. AFAIK, an object cannot cross filegroups, so an...

  • RE: Database Backup Failing, not sure why

    you are welcome, and one thing I'd do is document what you do as you go along, and then save copies for yourself (and put it on a blog).

    I've carried...

  • RE: Which SQL Monitoring Software to use / Reviews?

    I work for Red Gate, so I'll mention Response. I wasn't thrilled early on with the way it worked, but I think that's because I was looking for something else....

  • RE: How to determine if SQL Server and O/S are 32-Bit or 64-Bit?

    Interesting thread, and some good info.

    Here's the weird one. What if you have a 32bit VM on a 64bit host. do you want to know the host platform? I'm...

  • RE: Best Practice for Database Owner?

    I don't remember this being a concern for me ever. Other than looking annoying in reports, or being unable to remove the user if they owner a database, but I...

  • RE: SQL server 2008 and SQL server 2005 on same box

    Is this production?

    As mentioned if you want SSIS, it will be only one version. A couple other services are not instance aware.

    Otherwise, same issues as any other multi instance box....

  • RE: DBA's and Developers

    One small addition. I'd make sure they all use their Windows account, not SA, to make changes. It will help them to be respectful towards each other, and provide a...

  • RE: Backup Job Success Email Messages - SQL 2000

    In 2000, if you use the built in mail, you have to use Outlook, or a MAPI complaint system. You can get some SMTP senders, like XPSMTP (http://www.sqldev.net/xp/xpsmtp.htm), but that's...

  • RE: Page count

    This isn't stored in the system tables, AFAIK. There are likely ways to read the IAM, SGAM, pages and relate this back to an object, but I'm not sure. The...
