Move system tables to a new filegroup

  • Hi all,

    Could you help me move the system tables to a new filegroup? Otherwise, I have to move all large user tables to new filegroups.

  • To place an existing table on a different filegroup (Enterprise Manager)

      • Expand a server group, and then expand a server.

      • Expand Databases, expand the database in which the table belongs, and then click Tables.

      • In the Details pane, right-click the table, and then click Design Table.

      • Right-click any column, and then click Properties.

      • On the Tables tab, in the Table Filegroup list, select the filegroup on which to place the table.

      • Optionally, in the Text Filegroup list, select a filegroup on which to place any text, image, and text columns.

      1. That is applicable to user tables. When I try to modify the filegroup of a system table, a message appears that a system table could not be deleted. Probably, this action is completed as a new table is created in the new filegroup, the existing table's data is then moved to it and the old table is deleted.
