database priority

  • Hi everybody, in sql server 2008 is possible to set priority for single database ?

    i want to give more priority (for performance) to "database1" then "database2"

    is possible ?

  • Not directly.

    You can configure Resource Governor and create pools and resource groups and set limits, but it's far from perfect.

  • ok thanks.

    Do you have a small example for create resource group ? can i add database to this reource group ?

  • It's not something that has 'small' examples. Spend some time reading up on resource governor (Books Online has a fair bit, there's a whitepaper iirc as well), test out in a dev environment, make sure you understand what it does and what it doesn't do before you consider implementing in production. Implementing it is not a 5 minute job.

  • In addtion to Gila, if set up incorrectly it may lead to performance issue on the server too.

  • ok thank's to everybody. I'll read some documentation about that, but i suppose that's not a good way to solve.

    "Implementing it is not a 5 minute job." i know 🙂

    thanks
