Author nightly rebooting of server
computermagic

2005-12-31, 1:23 pm

SQL 2000 patched up running under SBS2003
we shutdown and reboot automatically at 2AM into DOS and backup entire
server via Ghost onto a backup and drive and restart server
Question: are there any issues with rebooting SQL daily?

a another consultant claims there are but I can find no mentions in MS db or
literature.

Hi

If you cleanly shut down SQL server there should be no issue
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...start_6628.asp,
but anything connected to the server would need to handle this loss.

The only issue is that you are blowing away your data cache and query cache,
so this is why queries in the morning run a lot more slowly than they do in
the afternoon.
