Thanks for the reply. I will check the link now. The reason we are
moving to MS SQL 2000, is because we received it with a server a while
ago. However, due to time constaints it was never setup, as i only had
4 days on-site, and other things took priority.
I know we need two users for one of the databases, and may
unfortunately need 8 for the other so ill check on that now thanks.
There is another query as well, if possible. I was looking into
performance of it and obviously it depends on the structure of the
databases. We are not sure if we trust the suppliers of each database,
to make them run efficiently. Therefore apart from wrapping the SQL
servers, in Virtual Machines, and limiting the virtual machines use of
the CPU, is there any other way to control the resources used by the
server, in order to stop it using the full resources of the machine, in
case of bad structuring?
Thanks again for the reply, hope you had a good weekend
