i'm at a lost. I hae a sql server system which holds 15 databases.. a couple of days ago this database starting deteriating in performance - and once i rebooted it started behaving again.

Looking at the SQL Logs - I noticed that one of the databases keeps starting. Every 15-30 seconds... thus its having problems.. as the machine it was affecting was critical - I took this database and put it on a test box... its still 'starting' but now about every 45 seconds....

What would cause this? How do I fix it - as it causes serious performance problems.....

thanks
Sandy

I think you mean it is auto-opening and auto-closing? Check to see if either of these settings is turned on, and turn them off if they are. You can find them in Enterprise Manager by right-clicking the database, Properties, Options tab. You can also use the sp_dboption procedure in Query Analyzer. Books Online has more details about sp_dboption.
