Derric, sorry for the late reply I forgot checking this forum topic. The queue length is occuring on the RAID 10 drive where the data resides (not...
Ok, Thanks all for your input. I now understand the process what is causing our I/O problem and will go out for some more disks.
Is there a possibility to reduce the dirty pages? I found one update statement that executes reguraly (more than 100 times in 5 min.) that results in...

Gurucb, When the queue length is this high, the process who is causing it is sqlsrv. The Disk writes/sec are at that moment much higher than normal...
Thanks. Does this mean you think the database checkpoints every +/-20 min? Is this something we can monitor for instance in perfMon?
I'm not familiar with this. We did not change any recovery time so it will probably be automatic configuration. Can you explain how to set the...
We did this for reads, writes, duration and cpu but not yet for recompiles and deadlocks. However the queries in this period were very normal and...
No there is no virusscan software installed on the machine
We run a transaction log backup every 12 hours and a database backup every 24 hours. The transaction log is on a seperate disksystem (RAID1) and the...
autosrink is off. The database file settings are set to automatically grow file and the recovery model to bulk-logged. The database files have plenty...

No not yet but that is good idea. I will run it on a quiet moment. Thanks for the suggestion
