Database Snapshot

  • I answered correctly, told I was wrong, but the explanation matches my answer.

    Oh well, at least it is Friday. 😀

    Anyone who knows who contributed the question and answers?

    I believe that was forsqlserver; however, don't be so fast to blame the contributor. It could have easily been the editor that entered it into the database that made the mistake.

    Seriously, I'm only posting this to get the point back for having had a correct answer marked incorrect. 😉

    My bet is that Steve knows who answered what and awards points based on that. But to tell you the truth, I've never gone and checked after something like this happened.

  • I too want my points please...

  • It does seem that the MS documentation is all over the place. There are places where they state it is only available in Enterprise and in other locations say Enterprise and DataCenter. Oh well. The question certainly proved to provide the desired result...we all learned something and discussed something. I have often found that questions with incorrect or are otherwise not exactly clear provide some of the best discussions.

  • Looks like it has been corrected. I answered with data center and enterprise and got it right. Hopefully all of you who answered correctly before the update got your points back.

  • Thanks for the question

    Yes they appear to have changed the answer to the correct values, but as far as points are concerned it appears that instead of increasing my QOD score by one point, they reduced my QOD score by one point, taking away a point from previously correctly answered questions.

    Wonder who is handling all of this since it is most likely that Steve is not?

    [/Rant]

    If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

    Not sure, Steve always says when he does it. And he almost always returns points. I bet he'll return the points properly when he gets back. Isn't this the 2nd bogus question for this Author this week? And the Author hasn't defended his position?

    What is there to defend.. it is an obvious goof, should have been caught before being scheduled. Steve use to do this, but I wonder if the task has been assigned to some Redgate employee?

    I was referring more to the other question.
