Hi,
Since a select from a table took 7 mins which had just 1 row but no indexes, So I built the missing index but while users are running processes which access this table.
Will anything bad happen apart from slowing the process more?
Thanks,
Sarat

No. But I remember one situation in which DBCC caused so many blocks that users just hit CTRL-C to exit application leaving ghost connections, eating all SQL Server Resources. Well, you know the end.
