There is again virtually no space on the data file. Something is probably adding lots of data, which increases the data file size, and then deleting the data, which leaves the data file the same size but removes the data from inside it, thus you are left with a large but empty data file.
From: TheSQLGuru on 14 Jan 2008 10:51 1) contrary to what someone else suggested, you should probably NOT shrink the file. Search the web for karazi don't shrink sql. 2) You should (almost) NEVER run out of space in a database if you have autogrowth set correctly. 3) sp_spaceused does NOT reflect accurate values unless you recently run dbcc updateusage. See BOL. 4) do you perchance have a lot of databases or are you doing frequent backups (or maybe restores? 5) Do you have any third-party product on the server which could be using msdb? -- Kevin G.

From: guest5 on 14 Jan 2008 12:31 Hi Kevin I ran dbcc update usage and the sp_spaceused values are unchanged see below. There aer 13 databases on server inc system databases. We are using vb maintenance scripts for the maintenance jobs. Obviously something is using all the space but the disk usage reports for tables does not indicate what is taking up the space. Quite confusing. database_name database_size unallocated space -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------ ------------------ msdb 1540.00 MB 0.07 MB reserved data index_size unused ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ 1535928 KB 1484808 KB 49176 KB 1944 KB "TheSQLGuru" wrote: > 1) contrary to what someone else suggested, you should probably NOT shrink > the file.

From: guest5 on 15 Jan 2008 08:32 Hi It returns. Not sure how to check the size.
