WSS 3.0 SQL Express 4GB limit

2011-02-07 Thread Uzma Naz

Hi there, 
 
I was wondering.. is it possible to create a new content database to generate a 
further 4GB of space within a stand alone, WSS 3.0 environment with SQL Express 
installed?

You could always upgrade to SQL 2008 R2 Express which has a limit of 10Gb.

Uzma,

Why not upgrade to SharePoint Foundation and use remote blob storage?

Then your database will not be so big etc.

Hiya

 

Out of interest, who is using RBS? Coming from enterprise DMS systems before
working with SharePoint, I have long held the view that SQL was not the
place for documents. SharePoint people often find the concept foreign but
it's the prevailing wisdom in many other ECM systems out there.

 

Nevertheless, I haven't taken the plunge yet but I have a client in mind as
part of a soon to happen upgrade to 2010.  Has it been solid? These days I
am the kind of guy who like grandpa, laments increased complexity and yearns
for the simplicity of the past. Has anybody had negative experiences?

 

Regards

 

Paul
