ArcSDE 9.3.1
SQL Server 2008 (SP1)
This is more a DBMS problem.
I built a SQL Server 2008 geodatabase using in SDE schema. Now I tried to grant the sde user the db_owner role for preparing the geodatabase upgrade (9.3.1 to 10). It failed with error message as,
Add member failed for DatabaseRole 'db_owner'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Additional information:
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.
(Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
Lock request time out period exceeded.
Lock request time out period exceeded. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error:1222)
I used the SA user to connect the instance in SSMS, and the SA is a member of sysadmin server role as well as a member of db_owner DB role.
Does anyone have same experience and have a solution?
Thanks!
