  • RE: Database Mirroring Restrictions

    The answers should have been a little more varied; as soon as one recognizes that restrictions 1 and 2 are both true, then 3-5 do not matter because 'all true'...

  • RE: Extract the titles from XML

    Ed Wagner (7/13/2015)


    And here I thought I'd be the first one to comment that I don't like XML. 😀

    Nope, lots of people hate XML. (raises hand)

    I messed it up; didn't...

  • RE: Data Loss or Downtime

    It depends. We effectively have two systems, one for managing the business and the other for reporting. For the management system, downtime is more important. ...

  • RE: Dependency between tables

    matthew.flower (7/1/2015)


    I agree completely with Toreador on this - the query returns the two table names and the name of the foreign key constraint between them.

    As the first two answers...

  • RE: Who is the odd man out?

    Agreed on the vagueness. I got it right for the wrong reason; I thought "the other four are for row identification (in some way, shape, or form) while DATEADD is...

  • RE: Does It Count?

    Of course perfect availability is impossible. Even you have mirrored copies of your DB in six different data centers, and only do maintenance on one at a time, you...

  • RE: DBCC and disabled indexes

    I thought it was number three, but when I ran dbcc checkdb on SalesArchive (from the last two questions about disabled Clustered Indexes), I got back an error saying it...

  • RE: The Rename Game

    Xavon: I never rename objects!

    Chorus: What, never?

    Xavon: No, never.

    Chorus: What, never?

    Xavon: Well... hardly ever!

    But seriously, the most common reason I rename objects, is when a non-null...

  • RE: Insert without a PK

    Yeah, I did it. I figured out the author's intent instead of the proper literal interpretation of the question.

    I guess it helps that this is a follow-up...

  • RE: Stored Procedure Creation

    I somehow read the options 2 &3 three as sproc is/is not created, not sproc is/is not executed. So I picked 2 instead of 3. Got 3/4, can...

  • RE: Server Logins

    Interesting question.

    But I am disappointed the QotD was not May the 4th related.

  • RE: CDC Administration

    Situation where this would be used... A sproc that creates a global temporary table, calls other sprocs on separate threads to populate/update that table and uses CDC to monitor...

  • RE: Is It Time to Upgrade?

    An interesting point on this; PCI PADSS (credit card industry rules) require that the system be under support. So if your 2005 database holds credit card information, even if...

  • RE: Microsoft Exercise

    Upgrade Treadmill, or Upgrade Hamster Wheel?

    It could be worse. Despite being a software developer with a side of DBA, my company does not let me control when upgrades get...
