Asynchronous auto update statistics
Hi we have a separate distributor server with SQL server 2005 and SP1. We have on this server distribution database with Asynchronous auto update statistics to “Falseâ€.Now we want to Enable Asynchronous auto update statistics value to “True†for this distribution database. I just want to check whether we need to restart distribution agent for these values to take affect or does this change gets transffered immediately. If I change the value Asynchronous auto update statistics then do this change gets transffered dynamically or do I need to restart server / distribution agent for changes to take affect. thanks
You can do that as the enable and disable automatic creation and update of statistics database-wide or for a specific table or statistics object (ALTER DATABASE options AUTO_CREATE_STATISTICS and AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS, sp_autostats, and the NORECOMPUTE option on CREATE STATISTICS and UPDATE STATISTICS).
No need to restart any of the agents in this case, during the query optimization this will be picked up.
