Put SQL Server PVS in own filegroup

 Putting the Persisted Version Store (PVS) in its own file group is to improve the performance of SQL Server Accelerated Database Recovery (ADR). ADR was introduced with SQL Server 2019 and had some improvements with SQL Server 2022. This is described in the Microsoft documentation "Accelerated database recovery". Putting the PVS in its own filegroup is recommended and described in the Microsoft document "Manage accelerated database recovery".

This example is on the AdventureWorks database. The script i in the SQLAdmin Github repository.

Please notice that the Microsoft documentation does not create the filegroup before using it for PVS. This is required.
