Can someone help me with a script for the following?
7am tuesday, week 1 of the year:
full backup, Trans log backups from between 8am and 10pm and nightly diff @ 10.15pm. both TL backups and Diff backups append to the full file. the next day - weds - exactly the same only without the initialising full backup @ 7am. each day appends to the same weeks backup. this goes all the way through to 10.15pm Monday night which is the last activity on the particular backup file.
7am Tuesday, week 2 of the year:
exactly the same process but writing to a new backup file. backup file is named something useful, like with the date of the Tuesday for example..
ill manually delete things as I need to (once that months data has been written to End-Of-Month tape), but otherwise i'd ideally end up with 52 backup files, each containing a weeks worth of data.
help me obi-wan SQLee. cos I cant bloody do it....
Thanks

We are trying to compare our current calendar week (based on Monday being the first day of the week) with the previous calendar week.
I'm trying to produce a line chart with 2 axis:
- x axis; the day of the week (Mon, Tues, Wed etc - it is fine for this to be a # rather than text e.g. 1 = Mon, 2 = Tues etc) - y axis; the cumulative number of orders
The chart needs two series:
Previous Week. The running count of orders placed that week. Current Week. The running count of orders placed this week.
Obviously in such a chart the 'Current Week' series is going not going to have values along the whole axis until the end of the week. This is expected and the aim of the chart is to see the current week compares against the previous week for the same day.
I have two tables:
Orders TableCalendar Table
The calendar table's main date column is [calDate] and there are columns for the usual [calWeekNum], [calMonth] etc.
My measure for counting orders is simply; # Orders: = countrows[orders].
How do I take this measure and then work out my two series. I have tried numerous things such as adapting TOTALMTD(), following articles such as these:
- [URL] ... - [URL] ...
But I have had no luck. The standard cumulative formulas do work e.g. if I wanted a MTD or YTD table I would be ok, it's just adjusting to a WTD that is causing me big issues.
I'd like to add a yesterday dimension member to a new dimension, like a "Time Utility" dimension, that references the second last day of non empty data in a cube.
At the moment, I'm doing this:
Code Snippet
create member [MIA DW].[DATE TIME].[Date].[Yesterday] as [DATE TIME].[Date].&[2007-01-01T00:00:00]
select [Measures].members on 0, non empty [DATE TIME].[Date].members on 1 from [MIA DW] But the [yesterday] member does not seem to belong to [DATE TIME].[Date].members?
So I guess there's two questions:
1) Can I have a new empty dimension which contains all these special members like "Yesterday" or "This Week" and "Last Week" (these last two obviously refer to a set of Dates)
2)How come the Yesterday member is not returned by the .members function?
while(select MAX(wrh) from @tem1 where wrh = 0) < 1 begin update @tem1 set wrh = (select toaccount from @tem1 where reportdate = (select min(reportdate) from @tem1 where wrh = 0))+(select max(wrh) from @tem1) where wrh = (select max(wrh) from @tem1 where wrh = 0 ) and reportdate = (select min(reportdate) from @tem1 where wrh = 0) end
this is the result while executing loop statement .

How to update only that week hrs , don't continue next week...
In my reports I am extracting the data of number of people joined in all the weeks of the year. And in one of reports I have to extract the data of the number of people joined until the last week from the first week. I am trying out all the logics but nothing is working for me as such. Can any one help me with this issue??????
I need a Select sentence that return me the first week of the month for a given week.
For example If I have week number 12 (Begins 2015/03/16 and Ends 2015/03/22) I need that returns 9, I mean Week number 9 wich is the first week of march (having in mind @@DATEFIRST).
I only need give a week number of the year and then returns the week number of the first week of that month.
Quick question (I hope) regarding the cycling of the sql server error logs.
I am looking at implementing a daily / weekly job to run the stored procedure "sp_cycle_errorlog", but was wondering if there was any way of stopping the sql server process cycling the logs automatically when it is started? Therefore the logs will only be cycled when the job runs.
I have a table that contains a list of departments (about 50) and another table that contains helpdesk tickets, each record storing the ID of the department sending the ticket. So I'm trying to count how manay tickets per department, I tought of using a subquery and a WHILE cycle but Its just not happening..I sketch up this query:
Code: WHILE (SELECT MAX(DepartmentID) AS c FROM dbo.tblDepartment) i < i.c BEGIN SELECT COUNT(DepartmentID) AS DepartmentCount FROM dbo.tblTask WHERE (DepartmentID = @Variable) END
how could I build this query or what better way of doing the job there are...
Ok, at this point I have the reader reading the tables data in a loop while it's not empty. During the gathering of each row of data, I was wondering if it was possible to do a next row once I've reached a certain column. The main users table has just the one user, but it's relationship table has a couple family members. I was hoping someone could show me how to make it so that the one user and all his related family members will print out to a label. while (reader.Read()) { string usr = reader["UserName"].ToString(); usr = usr.TrimEnd(); string pss = reader["Password"].ToString(); pss = pss.TrimEnd();
if (usrNmeLbl.Text == usr) { if (psswrdLbl.Text == pss) { //read the column from the reader and cast it to String as some may contain null values usrNmeLbl.Text = reader["FirstName"].ToString() + " "; psswrdLbl.Text = reader["LastName"].ToString() + "<br />"; psswrdLbl.Text += "Place of Birth: " + reader["BirthPlace"].ToString() + "<br />"; psswrdLbl.Text += "<img src=" + reader["Photo"].ToString() + " />" + "<br />"; Label4.Text = "Your relatives: " + "<br />"; Label4.Text += reader["Relation"].ToString() + ": "; Label4.Text += reader["RelativeFN"].ToString() + reader["RelativeLN"].ToString(); Label4.Text += reader["Relation"].ToString() + ": "; Label4.Text += reader["RelativeFN"].ToString() + reader["RelativeLN"].ToString(); } If I grab the Relation table data again, it's not cycled to the next relative. I was hoping that it would, but it's not. So I'm wondering if there was something that could be added to the second set. Label4.Text += reader["Relation"].ToString() + ": "; Label4.Text += reader["RelativeFN"].ToString() + reader["RelativeLN"].ToString();

Scenario: SQL Agent job calls "EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_cycle_agent_errorlog" once a week to cycle the SQL Server Agent log. Job is owned by "sa".
Most servers run this with no problem, but one active node of an active/active SQL Servers cluster fails with the message:
Executed as user: DOMAINSQL_Service. SQLServerAgent Error: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22022). The step failed.
The SQLAgent job actually appears to be doing its job... a new SQLAgent.OUT is generated with the event:
(Date/Time)+ [412] Errorlog has been reinitialized. See previous log for older entries.
If I try renaming the file SQLAGENT.OUT, I get the message "It is being used by another person or program," which I expect. If I stop the SQLAgent service, I can rename the file with no problem. Failing over has no effect.
I just don't understand why this job fails for this server. (It should be mentioned the job could be fixed to "Succeed on Failure," but I'd rather not.)
Code Snippet SELECT empID, unit_date, unit, ISNULL(NULLIF ((unit + DATEDIFF(mm, unit_date, GETDATE())) % 4, 0), 4) AS new_unit FROM dbo.empList
i have this code this code change the value field "new_unit" evry month from 1 > 2 > 3 > 4 like this evry 4 month it return to 1 >2.......... ------------------------------------------
if i put unit_date = 01/05/2008 and unit=1 than new_unit=1 IT OK
but
if i put unit_date = 01/04/2008 and unit=1 than i get new_unit=2
but it should be 3 it dont go backward ok
if i put unit_date = 01/06/2008 and unit=1 than i get new_unit=4
I have a query that run every day to update a summary table which has week number and day of week. what I currently do is delete all records from the summary table and then summarize all the data availabe from four tables adn then populate the table daily. I want to know if I can run the update query to run only for the week number and day of week depending on getdate. Can I do this?
Function F_ISO_YEAR_WEEK_DAY_OF_WEEK returns the ISO 8601 Year Week Day of Week in format YYYY-W01-D for the date passed. W01 represents the week of the year from W01 through W53, and D represents the day of the week with 1 = Monday through 7 = Sunday.
The first week of each year starts on the first Monday on or before January 4 of that year, so that the year begins from December 28 of the prior year through January 4 of the current year.
This code creates the function and demos it for the first day, first date+60, and first date+364 for each ISO week/year from 1990 to 2030.

I am trying to create a query that will show how much revenue that we have recieved from a customer After the first invoice and I'm having a difficult time creating a query to do it.. I have a customer table and a sales table joined by custno. SELECT Customer.LastName, Sales.InvDate, Sales.AmtChargeFROM Customer INNER JOIN Sales ON Customer.CustNo = Sales.CustNo The output I'd like is CustNo, LastName, FirstInvoiceAmount, LifeCycleAmount Getting the first inv date seems straight forward SELECT Customer.CustNo, MIN(Sales.InvDate) AS FirstInv FROM Customer INNER JOIN Sales ON Customer.CustNo = Sales.CustNo GROUP BY Customer.CustNo However getting the amount of that first inv and then getting the sum of all invoices not including the first invoice has me scratching my head. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I need to display the 'Flag' column in the result set as mentioned above to identify the cycle values without breakdown indicator values. Here is the logic for this,
1. Need to set the flag 'Yes' for the cycle values PM04 to PM04 in the OrderType and if there is any breakdownindicator value 'X' then we can not consider that cycle for Flag.
I have weekly billing cycle. And the billing cycle can start on any day of the week.
Assumption: Start day of week is MONDAY
Hence, the following
DayNumber Day 1 Monday if start day is 1, then billing cycle is Monday - Sunday 2 Tuesday if start day is 2, then billing cycle is Tuesday - Monday 3 Wednesday if start day is 3, then billing cycle is Wednesday - Tuesday 4 Thursday if start day is 4, then billing cycle is Thursday - Wednesday 5 Friday if start day is 5, then billing cycle is Friday - Thursday 6 Saturday if start day is 6, then billing cycle is Saturday - Friday 7 Sunday if start day is 7, then billing cycle is Sunday - Saturday
For a given date, i need find start date and end date of current billing cycle.
For example, if my billing cycle starts on 3rd day of week (wednesday), then for the input 09-Oct-2015, i need to get two output 07-Oct-2015 and 13-Oct-2015
I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.
The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).
Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?
I am trying to convert a field that has a Date and Time in smallDateTime format into something that will give me the day of the week that each Date corresponds to. For example, if my Date/Time field says "Jun 7 2001 09:30:00" I want my Day field to automatically say "Thursday". Is there a function that will do this? Or is there something close that will convert a variable of smalldatetime format into a number 0-6 which then can be converted to a day of the week?
How do I see which is the first day of the week setting in my server? I was reading about @@DATEFIRST and SET FIRSTDATE, etc. But I don't want to set anything, I just want to know what is the first day of the week set on my server.
I need to write a user defined function that will return the date of the first day of a week when provided with the week number. I had an idea of using a while loop with that will keep adding 1 day from January 1st until the week number (found via the DATEPART function) is equal to the supplied week number. Not sure if this is the best way though - any ideas?
