I am working for a company which is doing infrastructure operations and IT consulting jobs in Germany, Europe.

My sphere of activities includes virtualization topics, IP networking, storage, server operations, monitoring, backups and network security. I was awarded the Microsoft MVP title for Windows Networking for several years in the past, although my public activity on Microsoft-specific topics has declined seriously due to lack of time so it is not likely to happen again that soon.

If you need to get in touch, just mail the company: office@syneticon.net

If you are wondering about the avatar bunny, Ubisoft supplies a lot more to look at and wonder about.

comment “Arithmetic overflow” when initializing SQL Server 2012 replication from backup
consider migrating your question over to Database Administrators - they do have some decent MS SQL server people answering questions there.

comment MySQL: logging queries which would execute without using indexes
After pondering around with pt-query-digest I found it extremely useful for exactly the reasons you've cited. Thanks for that.

comment .mdf vs .ldf Performance considerations
Performance characteristics put aside, it might be a good idea to put logs on HDDs as long as the long-term reliability of heavily-written SSDs is still unclear. HDDs have served well as log devices for decades now, their deficiencies are well understood and can be planned for.

comment MySQL: logging queries which would execute without using indexes
Thank you for your time. I basically wanted to only have queries listed for tables where I actually might consider adding an index. MySQL's behavior is rather counterintuitive in this respect as it even would log stuff where indexes cannot be added any more (because they are there already). But I guess I could use min_examined_row_limit as a workaround.

comment MySQL: replicating to a different table engine type
So any rollback on the master would result in broken replication? Or just the transactions which were explicitly KILLed?
