Split operation doesn't respect "not using cache"

Post by *Borek »

Hi
I'm not sure if it's a bug but the File Split operation fills memory even when "not using cache" copy mode is selected. Today it caused outage of our production SQL server :(

The "split" function doesn't use any of the special copy modes. The problem with the "big file copy mode" is that it cannot write blocks of any size - it's usually limited to a multiple of the cluster size. This can make it impossible to completely fill a removable medium.
