Hi, Im having another problem with a large db. I have a 160Gig drive dedicated to the database partition and I have on database in particular that is taking up the space. My .MYD is 78Gig and my .MYI is 34 gig. Thats fine i have a couple of gig left, but whenever i try and do anything on it, the disk fills up and I have to run a repair table tablename quick to get it going and that takes forever since its quite large.
Is there any other way that I could repair the index's quickly without having to wait up to 48 hours for the index to repair? Also, if i run out of diskspace, is there any way that I can get it working without truncating the data? Thanks alot Ian
