An effort which must now be delayed I must add because some bonehead deleted a bunch of active transactions from a database I support and now I must try to figure out how to restore them.Grrr! :angry:
BWAAA-HAAAAA!!!! I feel your pain! And people wonder why my response to the question of "Can I get write access to the database" is an emphatic "NO!" π

Data archiving. Can't use partition swaps because it's standard edition.
Have you considered partitioned views?

Data archiving. Can't use partition swaps because it's standard edition.Have you considered partitioned views?
Create a new table every month, alter the view to include that and exclude the oldest month's table? Eeep, no.
Besides, I'm also not allowed to do such a thing because part of their app does schema mods. It wouldn't break with a partitioned table (because that still looks like a table to any tool that doesn't check the location the object is created), but it would if I replaced a view with a table.

I need to deal with a critical issue, but unfortunately fixing it keeps getting bumped. I was wondering what metaphors Threadizens might have to describe just how low the priority of a project can go.
So far I have two. "Priority is so low..."
1) ...that deep sea creatures stare in fascination at the strange blob that sometimes rises out of the deepest, darkest crevasse in the very bottom of the ocean
2) ...that the project is lodged in the drainage hole in the lowest basement of hell
Any others??

In honor of SQL Saturdays, I'm going to start blogging SQL stuff on Saturday. @=) Starting tomorrow, in fact. Since LJ doesn't like SQL Code, most of my blogging will be on http://www.brandietarvin.com/database-administration/dba-blog/[/url], copied over to LJ only when there is no code involved (like tomorrow). Please ignore my dust as I get my new website whipped into shape.
I hope you enjoy it.
