We are looking at testing SQL-UP at SQL Server Central. We met with the vendor and do like the program. There are some limitations and issues (we need another box...

Nice high level article and something that I completely agree with. You need a process for managing changes.

As long as you have not set any affinity, you should get the use of all 4 CPUs. If you set an affinity, you'd still see all 4 CPUs, but...

Interesting idea and something we've considered. We'll kick it around.

I agree with above. Likely the log grew and filled the disk. When the transaction rolled back, the log shrank back. Do you have autoshrink on?
I'd move the table in...

Not sure what you mean as far as labeling. When I branch the project, there is only a single version of each file, so we can tell if anyone has...

What we do:
RAID 1 for OS
RAID 1 for db logs
RAID 5 for data on some servers, RAID 10 for data files on others

Or add some # to the ASCII() value of...

Also, what does that mean? Things are slow?

$50K is pretty good. How is this system used? Lots of transactions? More reads?
I'd go with RAID 10, try to separate out tempdb (if used) from other db and...

ODBC drivers will work. Get the latest MDAC from MS will work. You can also install the client tools from the SQL Server CD on W98.

Restart the server should bring it back down.
I assume you've right clicked in EM and done shrink. If not, do that.
Any errors in the logs? Might also try this shrink...
