Having lots of database backups, never testing their validity, and in a crisis situation finding out that they won't restore.That's worse. |

Have you tested that well-designed, well-indexed database under load and with those millions of rows in? If not, you may find, once it's in use that it's not as well designed and well indexed as you thought, and fixing it once it's live is far harder than fixing it in development.--Gail ShawSQL Server MVP |

Create data and then just muliply it by putting it in a loop. Alternatively, get some data from the live system and change it for test purposes. |

There are lots of tools to do load testing. (generally they cost a lot of money!) It depends on the front end.For example I've used Load runner in the past to simulate thousands of simultaneous connections each one running a script which emulates what (we thought) was a typical user session.That's with a web based front end.It certainly threw up some things we never thought of -- chiefly some continual query plan recompiles due to the use of temp tables in some stored procs and other issues.Your question was way, way too vague.NB -- what Rick D said about getting the data in the first placeCharlie===============================================================Msg 3903, Level 16, State 1, Line 1736The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION request has no corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION[/red] |

Or, if this is in development, load fake data. I like Redgate's SQL Data Generator for that. I hear (but haven't confirmed) that Quest sells a load testing tool.--Gail ShawSQL Server MVP |

There's also a data generator in Visual Studio Database Edition. |
