data file of MSDB database has been increasing(sys.sysxmitqueue)
One day my service now dash board thrown an error saying as data file msdb consuming 67.5 GB out of 68 GB and only 500 mb is left out. My client sent a mail to me to find out a root cause of analysis.And he also mentioned and provided a query and said that there is a system table called sys.sysxmitqueue is consuming nearly 67GB. When i try to find out this table under msdb database system tables we don't find this. But realized this is a hidden table and the same has been found when we run the below query. USE msdb GO SELECT object_name(i.object_id) as objectName, i.[name] as indexName, sum(a.total_pages) as totalPages, sum(a.used_pages) as usedPages, sum(a.data_pages) as dataPages, (sum(a.total_pages) * 8) / 1024 as totalSpaceMB, (sum(a.used_pages) * 8) / 1024 as usedSpaceMB, (sum(a.data_pages) * 8) / 1024 as dataSpaceMB FROM sys.indexes i INNER JOIN sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.object_id AND i.index_id = p.index_id INNER JOIN sys.allocation_units a
