Hi,
Thanks for all the wonderful help in the past. This time it is more crucial. Tempdb is full in prod.
I immediately added a secondary file, restricted the filegrowth and I am planning on moving it to a different drive which has more space.

Is this right thing to do? Do you have any more suggestions?

TIA.

Yes that is what you do when tempdb is on a drive that doesn't have enough free disk space. The ultimate thing to do would be to add more drives to the array to support tempdb.

OR, figure out what the heck is using up all your tempdb space, and look into optimizing it.
