Question : SQL 2008 SP1 Ghost count!
Hi Experts, when sql server is very busy I get Ghost counts when using statement 2, statement 1 works fine, however, when the server is idle both the statements come up with the same correct results! Aaargh!!
Is there a setting on the server that can fix this?
The two fields are JobUID (Uniqueidentifier) and EntityType nchar(2).
Cheers and look forward to your answers!
DECLARE @JobUID uniqueidentifier, @EntityType nchar(2),
SET @JobUID = '1e259920-326d-4469-ba23-5
041e307f9b
8'
SET @EntityType = 'GE';
-- 1
SELECT count([id]) AS TotalRowsInTable
FROM [DQEMail].[dbo].[EMailVali
datorResul
ts]
where JobUID = '1e259920-326d-4469-ba23-5
041e307f9b
8' and EntityType='GE'
TotalRowsInTable
4154744 (Correct count)
-- 2 Ghost count result
SELECT count([id]) AS TotalRowsInTable
FROM [DQEMail].[dbo].[EMailVali
datorResul
ts]
where [JobUid]= @JobUID and EntityType=@EntityType
TotalRowsInTable
4154782 (Incorrect count)

try repeattable read first
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL REPEATABLE READ
if that causes problems (deadlocks) drop back to read committed...
