Hello,
I would like to to use SQL Server express, but am concerned about the 4 gig limit
I want to store a lot of data every day and was thinking about creating a database on the fly every time the a new calender month came up.
I have 2 questions:
1. Is the 4 gig limit on an individual DB or on the entire server itself ?
2. Will there be a problem if there were 60 databases (5 years) in the server ?

Hi there,
I am aware of the recommended practice of not mirroring more than 10 databases on a single instance but does this apply to 64-bit edition as well?
Cheers,
James.

View 1 Replies View RelatedCan someone help me with the following problem:
I'm a SQL server DBA and we sell intern SQL-Server resources to the application teams based on needed storage and number of users.
I have several servers shared by different application teams.
Now I'm looking for a method to limit the number of users working together on a specified Database. Because when a project manager wants resources for 100 users I want to be sure that only 100 users can connect to that particular database at the same time.
I know I can limit the number of connections on server level but I need this on Db level too.
Can someone help me?
Does the user get an error message?
What error does an application get that tries to insert additional data via ODBC?
One of our database is approaching the gigabyte size. I know that microsoft claims to support terabyte databases with sql server 7.0. I was wondering if anyone could tell me about the max size of database they have used on an OLTP site without running into problems. ofcourse with SQL Server.
thanks,

How to limit the length of a database field such that only first 12 characters are shown in the result?
For example, I have show the only first 12 characters of employee name.
Is there a performance limit on the number of indexes per table / database ? With Filtered indexes there appear to be many more opportunities for more finely defined, and therefore smaller indexes resulting in many more indexes on a single table.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've read here at [URL] that with 32 bit it's recommended to only have 10 database mirrors per instance. However, is there a limit for 64 bit SQL Server 2012?
We're having a problem where we have about 300+ databases and now any new db's we add are timing out when it comes to setting up mirroring and am wondering if this is limited by the instance.
How does one enable sql connections limits for user connections per new and existing databases? how to do it on whole server per database but not set a limit per user.Looks like this must be run on each databases but what if you have 100s of databases:

GO
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;

Hi there guys!
I was wondering if anyone know the number of rows you can import from an external source into MS SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition?
I have tried importing a whole table from another database with over a million records. But failed after 1.7 million row.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
When creating a database, SQL Server 6.5 seems to have a 2 gig limit. What I mean is that if the device chosen is over 2 gigs SQL Server displays the size of the device as anegative number. This prevents me from being able to expand the database when I need to. Can anyone tell me why this is so, and if there`s anyway around it??

I recently read up and found an msdn forum post that said the 4gb limit only applied to data files not log files.
However recently i had an error on a sql express database saying that the log file was full, the database log file was set to auto grow and there was plenty of space left.
So i am guessing the 4gb limit applies to any database file mdf or ldf, is this correct ?
Thanx
I have the fields in my table:
ID, Title, Description, Price, ImageData, Active
I only want it to be possible to have two records at any time with Active=Yes. Active is a Bit, Yes/No, field.
Any help is appreciated.

hi,i have a union statement that works like a charm:SELECT
[Name],
[EventID] AS [ItemID],
[TourID],
[Date],
NULL AS [StartDate],
[Date] AS [SortDate],
[Type] FROM [Events]
WHERE
[TourID] IS NULL
AND
AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel
UNION
SELECT
[Name],
[TourID] AS [ItemID],
[TourID],
NULL AS [Date],
[StartDate],
[StartDate] AS [SortDate],
'2' AS [Type]
FROM
[Tours]
WHERE
AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel
ORDER BY
[SortDate] this statement selects all the records i want from both tables, and orders the entire new table by sort date.what i want to do is to add a limitation on the number of records. i have tried using both LIMIT and TOP commands, but i can't get it working. both of the below statements give me a syntax error saying "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ORDER'"first try:SELECT * FROM (<same_statement_as_above>) ORDER BY [SortDate] LIMIT 2second try:SELECT TOP 2 * FROM (<same_statement_as_above>) ORDER BY [SortDate]what am i doing wrong, and how do i achieve what i want?i am working with mssql server 2005 (express locally, and standard on my hosting service). thanks for your help!
Hi,
I have an application with a DAL that has an interface with SQL Server.
The application has 400 users that open the web forms.
My question is:
Is there a limit of the parallel connections that can be opened? Or the IIS is managing all the access to the DB? Should I worry about the performance Or it's normal behaviour for ASP.NET applications?
Thanks
hello everybody
I created user "MyUser " with rights
1. public for database "Orders"
2. select, update,delete, insert to table Orders.dbo.PersonalInfo
I have table Orders.dbo.PersonalInfoChangeLog
( it keeps information on any update on Orders.dbo.PersonalInfo including
HOST_NAME())
So I don't want anybody to see even structure of this table(Orders.dbo.PersonalInfo ).
if person loged as "Myuser" he can use
1. sp_help PersonalInfoChangeLog
2.Enterpise Manager to see properties of the table
How can limit rights to see structure without generating Application role ?
Thanks
SQL takes all CPU resource on some of the intensive
queries. Is any way to make sure there is something left for other tasks
to be processed? Let's say limit SQL to use no more than 80% of CPU.
Thanks
I was wondering if anyone out there can help me as to how to limit the query results to show only the authors who have written more than one book?
SELECT a.au_lname, au_fname, COUNT(t.title_id)
FROM pubs..authors a
INNER JOIN pubs..titleauthor t ON (a.au_id=t.au_id)
GROUP BY a.au_lname, au_fname
Regards,
someone suggested I use:
select top 20 * from t
where pkc not in (select top 10 pkc from t order by pkc) order by pkc
to simulate the limit function in mysql.
i want to replace the 10 in the inner select with a variable. When I do this:
select top 20 * from t
where pkc not in (select top @counter pkc from t order by pkc) order by pkc
it gives me in an error in sproc. Pls help!!
There is at present (as we accidently found) limitation of MSSQL to return per row maximally 8060 bytes. Message like this comes: "Cannot create a row of size 8279 which is greater than the allowable maximum of 8060".
My questions are :
- Is there any way how to pass it? If I split into more tables (as I have it now) and ask for result where these tables are connected over any ID the result is the same. If I use stored procedures it seems to be ok. Any other idea?
- Will be this ok in SQL server 2005?
hi everybody,
Beside top statement what is the best statement used to limit the display the data?
Thanks...
I have an application that uses a small SQL Server database.
What I need is to prevent the access of an amount of users to the database.
At the beginning I want to limit the access only for 2 users but I want to be able in the future to grant the access to more.
MySQL has a convenient syntax for paging data that looks like this:
SELECT * FROM MyTable LIMIT 10, 20
That would select 10 records, starting from record 20, so that it returns records 20 - 30. This is convenient way to page data, without returning anymore rows than than you need.
However, MS SQL doesn't appear to support that syntax. What is the equivalent sql code to select any N rows from an arbitrary starting point, without having to create a stored procedure?
Thanks in advance :)
Quick question, is there a record limit in MSSQL assuming that we don't use a identity key. I am going to be using a table to sava mail server logs. It will create about 5000 records a minute. Also are there any perfomrance issues once you reach a certain numberof records, assuiming i am indexing one of the columns.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a extremely large table and out of that I just need 2 records but based on some logic . For example
IF EMPLOYEE_ADDRESS <> NULL
set Employee_HAS_HOME to 1
ELSE
set Employee_HAS_HOME to 0
Here I can not use just first 1000 records as I am not sure If I will cover the second condition in first 1000 rows . Then I came up with solution like : -
select * from employee_table where employee_address <> NULL LIMIT 1
UNION
select * from employee_table where employee_address = NULL LIMIT 1
And this will give me 2 records which I can use for my testing . But unfortunately this is not working.
Hi,
I am working on building SSIS Packages which will need to extract records from OLTP Servers, and i am half way through building the package, i wanted to test if it is able to extract the records from a particular table on OLTP....basicall i want to test if the package built so far running good?....but the extraction part takes ages as there are millions of records in the OLTP ...i want to limit those records to say some thousands so that i can test it and work on cleaning part in the staging and later after all the chunks are working perfectly i want to set it completely to run for extracting all the millions of records.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
thanks

Nothing much that i can do..!!
I am working on a report split into 2 Excel spreadsheets because it is roughtly 350 columns wide. I know this exceeds the MS Access column limit, but is there a way to build this in a single table in SQL Server? If not, does anyone have any ideas.
Thanks
