Adding Files to a FileGroup

  • SQLRNNR (6/18/2011)


    Once user tables are on a file in the primary file group can they be moved to another filegroup or are you stuck in that group?

    Thanks!

    No. Tables can be moved to different filegroups.

    But doing so involves rebuilding the clustered index. Not trivial on larger tables
