Commented Issue: AdventureWorksDW2008R2 DimDate table has missing dates [13383]

Hello,
Is this been taken care? If so, please share the latest data for DimDate. I'm working on some POC which requires dates in between 2008 and 2010 as well. If it is not already done, can someone let me know is there is any way I can generate the data for those missing dates in that table?

The attached script will fix the problem. Use the stored procedure to extend to future dates if needed.

Maintenance Plan Clean up task not deleting all .bak files Posted: 02 Aug 2013 12:22 AM PDT Hi,I have a maintenance plan that backs up my databases and deletes any .bak files older than 2 days old. I am running this on 2008 R2 and it sometimes work fine. Other times it randomly leaves behind a few (between 2-5) of the 9 databases being backed up. It doesn't leave behind specific ones it just seems random. Does anyone know any known bugs or problems like this?Thanks for any help.

Replication or Mirroring Posted: 01 Aug 2013 08:27 AM PDT We have an application that is starting to gain more users and is becoming more "critical" that it stay up. We would like to set up some sort of failover for our database server. Some of things we need to accomplish is: 1.) have the ability to make changes to live (source) database's structure that is then is copied over to the other (target) with very little intervention, 2.) Have it so if the source, goes down then the target can be used as the source.I know that this is a little of both mirroring and replication, but which one, if any, could cover these two main points.Thank you in advance,Jim

Created Issue: AdventureWorksDW2012 Download file corrupt [19063]

There seams to be an issue with the AdventureWorksDW2012 Data file download. When I try to run this SQL statement:

CREATE DATABASE AdventureWorksDW2012 ON (FILENAME = 'E:\MSSQL11.SQL02\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorksDW2012_Data.mdf') FOR ATTACH_REBUILD_LOG;

This is the error I get:

Msg 5172, Level 16, State 15, Line 1
The header for file 'E:\MSSQL11.SQL02\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorksDW2012_Data.mdf' is not a valid database file header. The FILE SIZE property is incorrect.
