BUG: Space Used Not Accurate After Text/Image InsertsLast reviewed: May 2, 1997Article ID: Q150892 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSThe space usage reported by sp_spaceused or the graphical utilities for SQL Server is inaccurate for some tables with text or image columns.
WORKAROUNDRegularly run DBCC UPDATEUSAGE on these tables.
CAUSEThe sysindexes used and reserved columns are not kept current with image inserts using dbwritetext() in a DB-Lib program. This is true for both indid 0 and indid 255. This can lead to sp_spaceused and GUI utilities reporting incorrect values for space used and reserved.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 6.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available. This problem does not occur in version 6.5.
