Dynamics ERP and SQL Server Maintenance | |
Do you think that SQL maintenance is something that IT people do and that it doesn't really affect you? Do you know if routine maintenance is being performed on your databases to keep them running at peak efficiency? Would you run your car without maintenance for months or years without routine check-ups?
Recently while working with one of our clients, we discovered that their SQL Server was not configured with maintenance plans (automated activities setup on a scheduled basis) to optimize and maintain the performance of their databases. Their database performance had been slowly decreasing, so they presumed the issue was with the growth of data. They had robust hardware for the size of the database and user count, so the slowness was not dramatic. What did happen though was that odd reporting issues began to occur with reports that had been working properly (and no recent changes) for some time. Reports that normally sorted by a particular field, began to show the data in a more random order.
Once we reviewed the situation, we determined quickly that SQL optimizations were not configured. After adding a SQL Maintenance plan to re-build indexes, they never had this problem again. Maintaining your SQL Server databases is a critical component of maintaining your overall Dynamics GP ERP installation. So if you are experiencing poor performance and have not upgraded your SQL Server version in a while, you'll want to read more here.
