[Vent] SQL Server Upgradewhat did they do? Change the RAID configuration?!? NO! Get more drives for the RAID 10 stack?!? NO! They bought a SATA drive and wired it to the SQL Server with a USB connector. And now there's an email storm going on about how slow the backups are. <bonking head on desk> Is it ironic poetry that my computer at home that I designed and built to play doom has twice the speed and twice the capacity of the Big Momma SQL Server at work?!? YES! Suits and computers should never *EVER* mix. -- Peace & happy computing, Mike Labosh, MCSD "Musha ring dum a doo dum a da!" -- James Hetfield Mike,

My major malfunction is that I love my work too much to leave it. :( The only good part is that I have at least identified what my own malfunction is. -- Peace & happy computing, Mike Labosh, MCSD "Musha ring dum a doo dum a da!" -- James Hetfield The 2005 certs will be available soon, so you have something to occupy the
