There can be any issues and solutions with each issue to tackle it quickly.
When certain conditions exist we can report an issue or display it on health monitor using alert.

It is highly suggested to construct an alert with a view to get rid of the chances of a full disk. The database file can increase in size without any boundary if the MAXSIZE parameter is not been configured by the user. The same tactics can be applied with the database log file in which the user can create multiple files with a single database and it is recommended to store log files on a different drive than the main data file (mdf).
To increase the I/O performance, SQL Server supports multiple file-group with secondary files, client data and index can be stored in the secondary file-group. Gigantic sized table data will be dispensed into multiple files in a larger platform in order to decrease the amount of the disk contention. We also need to take into consideration the size of multiple databases before defining the MAXSIZE attribute. Even this has a very hazardous impact on the operating system as well if it doesn’t have enough space to execute its system programs. UNLIMITED would fill up the disk storage but before that, it makes several spaces tinier than before. SQL Server can not commit any transaction to disk storage in the situation where disk is full so it’s always good to define the MAXSIZE parameter beforehand to avoid such situation. There will be no boundary on the growth of aĭatabase file if we do not take care of defining the MAXSIZE parameter, as the default value is Percentage, while in both cases we must define the value in MB format. It leaves us with two options either by specific absolute value or by In a way we define the FILEGROWTH parameter. How fast a databaseįile can reach its maximum space can be resolved using the FILEGROWTH parameter. Space can be occupied by a database can be defined using the MAXSIZE parameter. The initial size will be the same as the model database if by chance user forgot to define the initial size parameter while creating a database or do the same intentionally.Īt the beginning, size of the database can be set up using the SIZE parameter and how much maximum
While creating a database initial size of the database files (Dataįile and Log File) can be defined by us, with the Autogrowth and MAXSIZE

In this article, we will discuss the actual database file size and free space in the database file size with the help of monitoring script and shrink solutions.
