How do I change my TempDB size?

How do I set the TempDB size in SQL Server?

The short version: configure one volume/drive for TempDB. Divide the total space by 9, and that's your size number. Create 8 equally sized data files and one log file, each that size. Presto, the drive is full and your TempDB is configured for easy performance.

What happens if TempDB is full?
