| Select into query that ran for several hours failed and table got truncated ... what might be the reasons? In the db I have two datafiles... with unrestricted growth and the space allocalted are13834 MB and 12576 MB. What can be the problem?one of the sql server logs were:Autogrow of file 'filename2' in database 'dbname' cancelled or timed out after 4094 ms. Use ALTER DATABASE to set a smaller FILEGROWTH or to set a new size. |

perhaps the autogrow failed because there is no space left on the disk? elsasoft.org |

| Auto-growing a database can have an impact on performance. If you have a general idea as to how big it's going to be after inserting the data, size it up right away.Terry |
