Is the size of the data will increased or not when i migrate to filesystem?

I am doing archive through c# and save into files.

Some of the experts suggested the data of the filesystem is more as compared to the sql data.

is it right or wrong

Then i delete 1 cr records from database bu database file was not shrink. So i shrink log file to truncateonly, but when i put the database to shrink it tooks 2 hours but nothing happen.so please can you provide me the solution for it.

I was wondering if you could help me come up with a solution to a problem I’m having.

In SSMS with SQL Server 2008 R2, in the Object Exporer if I look under any database > Programmability > Functions I can find a list of (all) functions that I assume can be used with SSMS.

I have looked under INFORMATION_SCHEMA and SYS but I cant seem to find it.

Do you know of any way to extract all of these functions including their parameters and what they return as this would enable me to create a separate save of this information that I could then use?

In my sp i am storing the result sets into the XML i.e for XML path,root(‘name’).These XML’s are maaped into the Excel by configure the sp and refresh the data through .Net application. it’s Working fine for the past 8 Months.

Now i got the issue in Production Server i.e. Exec Procedure Values (EXEC ProcedureName) & i execute only existing script in the procedure (After hiding the create procedure ,begin and end comments).

Values are not matched for both conditions.

SQL 2005 – Reporting subscriptions are creating Agent jobs with schedules. Both are owned by an account with sysadmin rights. Subscriptions and schedules have no expiration/stop dates. However, none of them are firing and there is nothing in the history to show they even attempted. I do have many entries in the Agent Log that look like this set:

[000] Job 0x0500B79DFB6A8642A8F60B3DC0C6D735 does not exist in the job cache
[000] Failed to retrieve job 0xAA2AFCA1156EB64A9D8217344CD9D745 from the server
[156] Job 0xAA2AFCA1156EB64A9D8217344CD9D745 does not exist in the job cache: attempting to re-acquire it from the server…
[298] SQLServer Error: 2601, Cannot insert duplicate key row in object ‘dbo.sysjobactivity’ with unique index ‘clust’. [SQLSTATE 23000]
[298] SQLServer Error: 3621, The statement has been terminated. [SQLSTATE 01000]
[000] Failed to retrieve job 0xAA2AFCA1156EB64A9D8217344CD9D745 from the server
[000] Refresh of schedule 95736 failed because the parent job (0xAA2AFCA1156EB64A9D8217344CD9D745) was not found in the job cache

I tracked back through the schedule_id to find the job to run sp_help_job and the content appears to be the dbo.AddEvent command. The dbo.Event is empty and the @EventData guid does not appear in sysjobactivity.

Please help.

Scenario: Investigating performance issue with third party app.
The app uses multiple databases. It routinely runs queries across databases. In the below example MyTable contains only two records and has no indexes. Why the performance degradation when using three-part naming? The serveradmin has recently been defragging disks and I have theories but I have not been able to pinpoint the issue.

USE DB1
SELECT Count(Col1) FROM DB2.dbo.MyTable
(Duration: 2140)

USE DB2
SELECT Count(Col1) FROM DB2.dbo.MyTable
(Duration: 46)
SELECT Count(Col1) FROM dbo.MyTable
(Duration: 15)
