TSQL Tuesday: Learn From Others

My Pluralsight course for new SQL Server DBAs

T-SQL Tuesday is a monthly blog party for the SQL Server community. It is the brainchild of Adam Machanic (b|t) and this month’s edition is hosted by Kerry Tyler (b|t), who  has asked us to write about “Learning From Others“, by telling about a time something went bad and how it got fixed.

I have an “In Real Life” series of blog posts that are exactly this:

• Non-yielding IOCP Listener

• Cannot Connect to SQL Server

• SQL Server HealthCheck

• Instance Tuning

• Massive T-Log File

• Availability Group Performance

  • This one took three different DBAs to sort out. I was number 3.

• Test Restores and CheckDB

  • More of a “how can we solve this issue” request than a “something broke”

There are a couple of additional issues in the hopper, just haven’t had time to write them up.

Thanks for reading!
