  • Nice new feature, too bad it does not work on 2008/R2 servers. But as we migrate more servers to 2012 I sure we'll use it more.

  • I was disappointed when the text of the editorial frankly admitted it being an April Fools prank. There goes the chance to read the comments of those who fell for it.

    This one is a lot better. I almost believed it, until I saw the syntax of the DBCC TRACEON command.

  • Glad you like it.

    I was curious how many might actually read the whole thing and not skip over my disclaimer sentence.

    Yeah, I couldn't decide if I should reveal the joke or not. It's backfired both ways in the past, so I was hoping I might get some people that didn't read closely. Looking at the editorial comments, I think I got one.

    Oh shoot, I hope I can go stop my run of that now!

    Does it take long before the universe starts imploding from running that?
