Hi,

on MSSQL we have 3 data files and 1 trans log file.

Becouse of 2quad core procesors on DB host we want to have 8 data files equally occupied.

Any idea how to do that on MSSQL level?

Not sure if there is a simpler solution to it, but I would think about exporting the database to a dump file, then dropping database, recreate database with 8 files and later reimporting the database dump.
