Aug 5, 2013 at 15:08 comment added PanosPlat I do not know if the initial size changed, but 1306MB is the value now.sp_helpdb displays the data file size I stated.But I insist that there are not 9GB of data in that database.We have less than ten big tables, the biggest of them is 150MB and the second is far far behind. Spooky?
Aug 5, 2013 at 13:26 comment added user507 So the initial size of the data file or the database is 1306MB? Is this after the restore, or after you did the shrink? If you execute "sp_helpdb 'YourDatabase', what size does it show?
Aug 5, 2013 at 13:17 comment added PanosPlat Thanx for the reply Shawn. The keep the SQL code compatible with all the version of SQL Server since 2000 version. The initial size of the database is 1306MB.So the 1 to 9 ratio between backup and MDF is a bit strange, isnt it?
