Configure Max Memory Option
May 23, 2002Hello all,
I have a Production server which has 2gb of memory. SQL server memory is set to configure dynamically.
The Server also has a third party application on it. The third party application was running poorly, and the software vendors recommended running the following sql on a job every hour:-
exec sp_configue 'max server memory(MB)',500
reconfigure
exec sp_configure 'max server memory(MB)'1400
reconfigure
The hourly job has the effect of flushing out sql server memory every hour and setting the max amount down to 500mb and back up to 1400mb. SQL server still manages memory dynamically, so within the hour before the next time the job runs, sql server could use more than 1400mb.
I' feel that this job will degrade sql server performance because it will empty the buffer cache and procedure cache. My approach would be to select the 'use a fixed memory' option and set it to 1400mb, and not use their recommendation.
Does anybody have experience of this, and perhaps explain the consequence of running the recommended job every hour.
Any advice would be great.

View 1 Replies View RelatedLocking Down Windows Admins
Sep 27, 2007We have some Windows admins that curently have complete access to our SQL Server 2000 and 2005 databases and are making the most of it. What I would like to do is either lock them out or at least clamp down on their permissions within the instance. They tell me that their application of system patches fails when they do not have the System Administrator Server Role. I would really like to revoke that from them since they are running amuck. Are there any best practices or even good practices about the BUILTINAdministrators login or on how to allow the Windows Admins to do their job yet keep them from interfering with mine?
Thanks for your help.

Admins, Surface Area Configuration
Apr 16, 2008Up til now i've been working with Access, i have only got a few weeks experience with SQL, so dont eat me.
I set up a SQL Database, and placed it into my site, etc, set up all the connection strings. It connects fine, but cannot log in. It tells me;
Cannot open database "C:USERSJAREDDESKTOPSTYXSTYX - BUILD 2APP_DATASTYXDB.MDF" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'Webdev01Jared'.
I'm running Vista (x86), and SQL Server 2005 Express SP2, and i'm aware that Vista by default does not automatically enable remote access in SQLExpress for local admins.
So i go into Surface Area Configuration. I've read about it, and it's two steps, Click "Add New Administrator", then select the priveleges in the left box and click the button to put them in the right box. Simple enough, and it works, sure, click the button, it moves across, done.
But. Hit OK. It's done nothing, i still cant connect, and the cherry on top; open up the SAC again to check and there is nothing in the right box. It's exactly how it was before i changed it. The problem is definitely this, and not the account, as i can log in for SQL Management Studio just fine, with the same windows authentication credentials.
Thanks in advance.
Deactivating Admin And Domain-Admins
Sep 10, 2007Hello,
is it possible to deactivate the groups admins and domain-admins in sql server without getting in trouble with the sql-server. For example when the system boots the program should start normally without any problems.
We want do deactivate the accounts because we have some critical information in sql server and dont want to give all admins the possibility to have a look at these data.
We just want to have sa within the role sysadmin.

What Does VIEW SERVER STATE Give To Non-admins Over 2000?

SQL In-Memory :: Table Memory Optimization Advisor Validation Passed But Cannot Migrate
Jul 13, 2015I am looking to test this feature - and the "Transaction Performance Collector" has recommended me a table to port to In-Memory OLTP.
I have now tried the "Table Memory Optimization Advisor" tool.
After a couple of tweaks to the table design - the tool is now passing validation but the tool is not allowing to progress to the next step:
Could it be down to not having enough memory? But would this not show in the advisor?

AWE/Lock Page In Memory Drawbacks? Min/Max Settings, Memory Issues
Oct 11, 2007I've been researching AWE to determine if we should enable this for our environment.
Currently we have a quad core box with 4 gb of RAM (VMware). OS: Windows 2003 std, SQL Server 2005 std. 3GB is not set but will be as soon as we can perform maintenance on the server.
I have read mixed feedback on AWE, either it works great or grinds you to a hault. I would assume that the grinding to a hault is due to not setting the min/max values correctly or not enabling the lock page in memory setting.
We only have one instance of SQL on the server and this box won't be used for anything else aside from hosting SQL services. We do plan on running SSRS off of this server as well.
1. Will running SSRS and enabling AWE cause me problems? Will I have to reduce the max setting by the SSRS memory usage or will it share and play nice?
2. How do I go about setting the Max value? Should it be less than the physical RAM in the box? Right now its set to the default of 214748364, even if I don't enable AWE should this default value be changed?
3. It seems that even at idle the SQL server holds a lot of memory and the page file grows. If I restart the process in the morning, memory usage in taskmon is at 600mb or so. By the end of the day, its up around 2gb. How can I track down whats causing this, should this even concern me?
4. The lock Page in memory setting worries me. Everything I've read on this seems to give a warning about serious OS and other program support degradation. In some cases to the point where they have to restore the settings on the server before they can bring it back up. What are your thoughts on this.

View 10 Replies View RelatedWould Max Memory Including SSIS And SSAS Memory
Mar 27, 2008Hello, I understand that we should use SSMS -> Server Properties -> Memory to put a cap on the SQL server memory usage, therefore it gives some space memory for OS, this is based on the fact if the max memory is not specified, SQL will use whatever available memory and eventually crash the system.
My question is that when a server has SSIS and SSAS services installed along with the SQL service. Would the max memory setting covers the SSIS and SSAS memory usage, or the SSIS and SSAS has to shared the memory with OS?
Thanks,

Memory Issues, SSIS Package Out Of Memory Help
Dec 6, 2006I am running Visual Studio 2005. I have an SSIS Package which is consuming a huge amount of memory. During the execution of the package the memory keeps increasing. Until finally i get an Out of Memory exception. I have run this package using dtexec, and in the BIDS. No difference. I do have some script components and have added some code to get the assemblies in the current appdomain. I do see that one particular assembly is increasing on every loop. VBAssembly every time it hits the script component is increasing by 6, and along with it the memory is climbing. What is this VBAssembly being used for is there an update to SQL Server Integration Services that I need?
Thanks! Aaron B.
Sql Server 2000 Using Less Memory After More Memory Added
Aug 22, 2007sql server 2000 is running on windows server 2003 ... 4gb of memory on server .... 2003 was allocated 2.3gb nd sql server was allocated (and using all of it) 1.6gb for total of approx 4gb based on idera monitor software ... all memory allocated betweeen the OS and sql server .... then 4 more gb of memory added for total now of 8g ... now idera monitor shows 1.7gb for OS and 1.0 gb for sql server ..... 'system' info shows 8gb memory with PAE ... so I assume that the full 8gb can now be addressed .... why are less resources being used now with more total memory .... especially sql server ..... i thought about specifying a minimum memmry for sql server but i amnot convinced that would even work since it seems that this 1gb limit is artificial .... it it used 1.6 gb before why would it not use at least that much now ??
thank you

SQL 2012 :: Configuring Memory Per Query Option And Index Create Memory Option
Feb 10, 2015So I started a new job recently and have noticed a few strange configurations. Typically I would never mess with min memory per query option and index create memory option configuration because i just haven't seen any need to. My typical thought is that if it isn't broke... They have been modified on every single server in my environment.
From Books Online:
• This option is an advanced option and should be changed only by an experienced database administrator or certified SQL Server technician.
• The index create memory option is self-configuring and usually works without requiring adjustment. However, if you experience difficulties creating indexes, consider increasing the value of this option from its run value.

View 2 Replies View RelatedPerformance Issues Total Server Memory Vs Target Server Memory
Aug 2, 2006Hi
I did a load testing and found the following observations:
1. The Memory:Pages/sec was crossing the limit beyond 20.
2. The Target Server Memory was always greater than Total Server Memory
Seeing the above data it seems to be memory pressure. But I found that AvailableMemory was always above 200 MB. Also Buffer Cache HitRatio was close to 99.99. What could be the reason for the above behavior?

Feb 15, 2007Hi~, I have 3 questions about memory based bulk copy.
1. What is the limitation count of IRowsetFastLoad::InsertRow() method before IRowsetFastLoad::Commit(true)?
For example, how much insert row at below sample?(the max value of nCount)
for(i=0 ; i<nCount ; i++)
{
pIFastLoad->InsertRow(hAccessor, (void*)(&BulkData));
}
2. In above code sample, isn't there method of inserting prepared array at once directly(BulkData array, not for loop)
3. In OLE DB memory based bulk copy, what is the equivalent of below's T-SQL bulk copy option ?

How To Configure SQL 2000
Nov 23, 2006Hi, I got a website and everything works fine with SQL Server 2000, but now I modified the way of authentication using Forms and when I enter in a protected area I got this error:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by thefact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remoteconnections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could notopen a connection to SQL Server)
The problem is that I don´t have SQL Server 2005 installed so I don´t know why my webapp is trying to contact it, where I can configure this settings so it will look for the Server that exists?
Thanks.
Trying To Configure SQL Query
Mar 13, 2008In my DAL, I have 3 tables -
Footballer (FootballerID = Primary Key)
Aspnet Membership Table (UserID=Primary Key)
Favourite Footballers (Junction Table with 2 Primary Keys FootballerID and UserID - both with foreign relationships to their respective data table)
On my sports site, visitors can view various footballers and store their favourites in th FavouriteFootballers Table by clicking on a button.
This stores the Logged in UserID and FootballerID in the junction table.
I now need to write a select query that allows users to click a link and view their favourites which they stored - lets say in a data list on another aspx page.
This would include other columns from the Footballer Table such as Name, Age, Profile ect
I think I am right in that I need to use a Select clause as I am using SQl data adapters in the DAL.
Be very pleased if someone knows how to contruct the query and give me an example how to code a method in the BLL
Some code is below
Method that Stores FootballerID and UserIDprotected void DataList1_ItemCommand(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
{
// Assuming only have one button in the item templateInt32 fid = Int32.Parse(e.CommandArgument.ToString());Guid userid = (Guid)Membership.GetUser().ProviderUserKey;
// Connect to the db and insert the recordusing (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\MyDatabase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"))
{
string query = string.Format("INSERT INTO FavouriteFootballer(UserID, ArtistID) VALUES('{0}',{1})", userid, fid);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query, con);
con.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();
}
Code in FavouriteFootballersBLL
Its not complete -withotu parameter - i think maybe I also need to reference the Footballer Table and not the Junction one
[System.ComponentModel.DataObjectMethodAttribute(System.ComponentModel.DataObjectMethodType.Select, true)]public DataSet1.FavouriteFootballerDataTable GetFootballerFavourites()
{
return Adapter.GetFootballerFavourites();
}
