    So far so good...

    Wow, thanks for responding to my post! I had actually seen that script before I started my migration, but wanted to start from scratch duplicate-wise. DB had a dupe to primary ratio of greater than 1:1 for a long time and I didn't want to bring that along for the ride. I had actually nuked the duplicates on my DB pool a year or so ago because it was really bad but it's been creeping back up since then. I don't want to trash DB too much because for years it did to its job for me and I know that for a couple of years now it's been at varying levels of being orphaned. It's just that in the last few weeks in the course of doing my server upgrade it caused me to waste a LOT of time and it was irritating. Had I never upgraded to 2016 I could have somewhat happily continued running my years-old version But I upgraded my MB and cpu to a new gen 8 i7 and wanted to take advantage of the iGPU hardware decoding and no matter how much inf wrangling I tried I couldn't get the intel drivers to work under 2012r2, so an upgrade to 2016 was needed. I've already surpassed the amount of time that DB took before it would act up so I"m optimistic that I can let the server just run and I can go on with my life. Thanks again for the response and for being so engaged in the community. John
