  • RE: Avoiding Log full Error

  • RE: DTS doesn't run on a 64-bit server

    GilaMonster (2/20/2008)


    ...there is no 64 bit solution to this problem.

  • RE: Backup Syntax

    Also with respect, I was not criticising the SQL command but, rather, pointing to the question having more than one correct answer.

  • RE: Catching errors in DBCC CHECKDB

    Sorry, did not even notice the "RETURN" in the CATCH block.

  • RE: Catching errors in DBCC CHECKDB

    IMHO, the backup will happen regardless of whether or not the CATCH block is executed (i.e. regardless of DBCC raising an error).

    That is because the BACKUP command comes AFTER the...

  • RE: Backup Syntax

    Sorry guys, the answer is only partially correct.

    Backup may happen happily IF you've got the backup folder in the C: drive.
