SELECT top 90000 * from tablename order by 1 desc

is it working ? I am just woundering like your table is alright or not....

My server is using Hyper threading, is this ring a bell ?

Hi

Probably not. Does sp_who2 show increasing CPU and IO whilst the process has
"hung"?

Hi,


I have MSSQl 2000 , SP3 with WIn2000

when I transfer from one table to another, 115852 records, le server hangs.

I tried with 70000 records and it worked. even with 90000 records.

With more than 90000 records, the server hangs.

Any idea ? It might be a bug in MSSQLsvr ? any known bugs ?

Thanks for your help

Olivier

yes, i run the SQL query SELECT top 90000 and it worked.

i even put the data in two different tables and i managed to transfer them

but when i try to transfer all in one go, it hangs

one of my colleague find that
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=892205

How are you transferring the data?

I have used BCP, DTS and T-SQL to "transfer" data from one location to
another. I have successfully transferred more than 10x the data you are
talking about. I used T-SQL for table-table transfer (within the same
server) and DTS for server-server transfer.

When the "transfer" (UPDATE) statement fails what error do you receive? I
am guessing that the drive with your data or log file on it is full. Do you
receive an error along the lines of "cannot allocate space...full?"

First check your source table ..... can you retrieve more than 90000 row
from source table ?
