What's wrong with AB?

[10ClarionSt]

Ed, why is it that every Tuesday afternoon/evening, the AB web site seems to go t1ts up? It may just be a regional thing for round here, but if I want to use AB on a Tuesday, it's a non-runner. What's going on Ed?

[ummmm]

I haven't been on as a 'regular' for a while now but that always happened at midnight everynight.

It happens regularly, I think they reboot SQL on a timer. I would too, it's good to maintain service to the users.

[Gromit]

Might be a better idea to reboot or backup at 4.am instead of 4pm then.

[Gormless]

I think it's hourly Gromit.

[Gromit]

You should never need to reboot SQL and you certainly should not need to do so on a scheduled basis.

Daily would be excessive. Hourly would be very excessive.

Unless it is seriously flawed or configured wrongly.

[Gormless]

Absolutely agree Gromit, we have Microsoft SQL servers that have been running for months.

Exceptionally but unsurprisingly I have a Unix (Solaris) server that has a current uptime of nearly 3 years.

In answer to your original Question, sorry, I have no idea... but given that it is now Wednesday.... does that help ? Probably not but hey hoy... there is the prospect of loud bangs tonight..
