We have NetApps storage systems and it has been just recently rolled out for file services. The idea is to roll it out for SQL Server storage as...
Both instances are the same - SQL2K Enterprise Edition, SP3a plus the same server options apart from more RAM allocated to the instance in question....
Thanks. Any ideas why SQL Cache Memory (KB) is reported to be 1.5 mb when it is certainly bigger than this? Another related puzzle. On my other...
I've noticed that with some other tables, only the indexes are cached. If it were possible to know more about what rules are used by SQL Server 2000...
I posted a similar question last week but things have moved on a little so a new post is appropriate... I've dropped some unwanted indexes and added...
It's SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition on Windows Server 2000 Advanced Server. Using the /3GB /PAE switches in boot.ini . So, AWE is no in the...

I support a number of databases that are developed and tested on dev/test servers before being released to a production server. I'm running SQL...
More... I can not replicated this problem on other servers. No idea what's causing this behavior though. Clive
Ok, I have narrowed the problem down a bit. If the text field is populated directly by a select from another table, it works in QA and in a JOB....
