Default The sysadmin database: version 11 - 05-05-2010 , 02:56 PM






Do most people move this new system db that is created in the rootdbs
by default in version 11?
For those folks that do not move it, what are you seeing as far as
sizing goes for the rootdbs?
I am used to not placing anything else within the rootdbs so I am
exploring the pro's and cons of just adding more space to our existing
rootdbs (and how much to add to accomodate the sysadm db)
versus moving it to a new space after initial creation


Thanks
Tom

It is strongly recommended to move the sysadmin database once you have other
dbspaces set up. Especially if you do not disable the statistical data
collection that is on by default.

We create a special dbspace just for sysadmin and move it in there.
It becomes a critical dbspace, so using a regular data dbspace adds to
risk. If you loose a chunk within this data dbspace, and then want to
bring the engine back online leaving the chunk down, if sysadmin is in
that dbspace you can't do it - engine toast.
