Kill all Connections

  • Script

There are times you want to kill all the connections in a database. This would do that trick. This can be very useful when you replace a database regularly and some connections still exist so your automated restore fails. You can issue this command to kill all the connections before issuing a restore command.

Question of the Day

Trigger Order III

I have created these triggers in SQL Server 2022:

CREATE TRIGGER triggertest_tri_1 ON dbo.triggertest FOR INSERT
AS
PRINT 'one'
GO
CREATE TRIGGER triggertest_tri_2 ON dbo.triggertest FOR INSERT
AS
PRINT 'two'
GO
I want to be sure that the trigger with "1" runs first. I decide to run this:
EXEC sp_settriggerorder@triggername = 'triggertest_tri_1', @order = 'first'
What happens?
