DB Size Not The Actual Physical Size
Feb 15, 2000Hi,
An MSSQL DB running SAP indicates a smaller DB size (MMC & SAP) than the actual physical size. The difference is about 8 GB.
A lot of records were deleted before this. Did they remain in the DB as NULL values or something ?
Does anyone know what the reason for this could be ? And how to clean this up ?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Check Actual DB Size
Jun 29, 2004Hi,
How do I check what is the actual DB size that is currently being use?
e.g. I set 10 GB as initial size. A few days and a few transactions later, how can I know how much was used since it is still under 10GB and checking the physical DB file will not tell me anything.
SQL 2005 Resize Initial Log Size: MODIFY FILE Failed. Specified Size Is Less Than Current Size.
Sep 4, 2007
I am trying to resize a database initial log file from 500M to 2M. I€™m using€?
ALTER DATABASE <DBNAME> MODIFY FILE ( NAME = <DBLOGFILENAME, SIZE = 2 ) "
And I'm getting "MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size." I tried going into the database properties and setting the log file to 2M, but it doesn€™t keep the changes.
Any help with this process?
Actual Physical File Size
Jun 21, 2004Hi Everybody,
I like to compute the actual physical database file size using queries.
From the EM database properties, the file size shown is not matching with the master..sysaltfiles.size
Ex. Actual file size is 12MB and 1MB for MDF & LDF respectively.
'sysaltfiles' shows 1464 & 96 resp. Since they are shoing it as 8K Pages,
96*8 = 768KB is not matching with 1024KB for the LDF file.
Is there any overheads (additional space from the physical file for file headers) allocated?
Thanks

Need To Know The Actual Size On The Tape Drive
Aug 16, 2007Need to know the actual size on the tape drive
I€™m using LTO3 tape drive (400GB) the used media is for LTO2, currently I€™m looking for LTO4(1.6TB) but I need the backward compatibility to support LTO3 tapes so I can go for LTO2 media or LTO3 media.
I need to know the size of the database backup (Ms SQL2005 SP1 x64-bit, on Ms Windows 2003 R2 x64-bit) on the tape drive. I can see the backup size of the database but not the size on the tape which is using hardware compression.
Is there a way or a tool to view that.
SMALLINT: VALUE: 12 OR 12000 WHAT WILL THE ACTUAL SIZE: 2 BYTES OR ?
Aug 28, 2007Sql Server has many data types.
For Example:
smallint
Integer data from -2^15 (-32,768) through 2^15 - 1 (32,767). Storage size is 2 bytes.
I want to know that
If it contains like 0 or 100 or 1000 or -200 or -2000 or more or less.
What will its actual size?
2 bytes or change with the value.
Please also mention the reference with your answer. if available.
Way To Retrieve Actual Size Of Ntext Column In Native Code?
Aug 3, 2007Howdy folks! (I feel im creating too many topics...but all my questions are unrelated :-/)
Dev environment: SSCE, Native c++ OLE code, Win CE 5
I have a routine that calculates the size of a set of columns in order to create a byte buffer for retrieving data from an IRowset and inserting it into a custom class. This method works great for all data types except ntext. When I look at the column information from an ntext field, the DBCOLUMNINFO::ulColumnSize member holds 536,870,911 (the max length of an ntext type). Obviously I dont want to allocate 1GB of memory for each ntext column. Is there anyway (natively) to determine the actual number of characters in a field?

Error - Output Param - SP - Size Property Has An Invalid Size Of 0
Nov 14, 2007Using C#, SQL Server 2005, ASP.NET 2, in a web app, I've tried removing the size from parameters of type NCHAR, NVARCHAR, and VARCHAR. I'd rather just send a string and let the size of the parameter in the SP truncate any extra chars if need be. I began getting the error below, and eventually realized it happened only with output parameters, as in the code snippet below.String[3]: the Size property has an invalid size of 0. par = new SqlParameter("@BusinessEntity", SqlDbType.NVarChar); par.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; cmd.Parameters.Add(par); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();What's the logic behind this? Is there any way around it other than either finding out what the size should be, or assigning a size larger than would ever be needed? ThanksMike Thomas

Best Practice For Data Size/Log Size Ratio
Jul 23, 2005Just wanted to know what is a general rule of thumb when determining log file space against a database's data file.We allow our data file for our database to grow 10%, unlimited. We do not allow our log file to autogrow due to a specific and poorly written process (which we are in a three month process of remove) that can balloon the log file size.Should it be 10% of the Data file, i.e. if the Date file size is 800MB the log file should be 8MB?I realize there are a myraid of factors that go against file size but a general starting point would be nice.ThanksJeff--Message posted via http://www.sqlmonster.com

the problem is that the sum of all tables is not the same size when i make a full database backup.
example of this is when i run this query against my database i see a sum of 111,899 KB that they are 111MB,but when
i do full backup to that database the size of this full backup is 1.5GB,why is that and where this size come from?

SQL 2012 :: Existing Replica MDF File Size Increased In Size Than New Replica Install
Apr 14, 2015Here are my scenarios:
We have an application with replicated environment setup on sql server 2012 . Users will have a replica on their machines and they will replicate to the master database. It has 3 subscriptions subscribed to the publications on the master db.
1) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with no sql server on it. After the initial synchronization(used replmerge tool) the mdf file has grown to 33gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studion . Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 84 gb with little empty free space available.
2) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with sql server 2008 on it. After the initial synchronization(used replmerge tool) the mdf file has grown to 49 gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studio , Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 90 gb with 16 gb free space available.
3) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with sql server 2012 on it. We have dropped the local database and recreated the local db and did the initial synchronization using replmerge tool. The mdf file has grown to 49 gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studio , Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 90 gb with 16 gb free space available.
Why it is allocating the space differently? This is effecting our initial replica set up times.

View 9 Replies View RelatedLog Backup File Size Not Matching Log File Size
Apr 15, 2008I have a log file that is approximately 50 GIG. I backed up just the log and the file size of the .bak is 192 GIG . Why is this? Shouldn't it be closer to the 50 GIG.
Normally I wouldn't let log grow this much. But we are in process of getting new server up and running and don't have backups going yet. They are working on getting that up and running this week.
So I did a log backup to give me back some log space for now but was concerned when I saw the size of the .bak file.
When I view media contents of the backup device it shows one tranaction log back up and size of 192 GIG.
What is up with this. I know in SQL 2000 the log backup files where never this big. they were about the size of the log itself.
Any ideas?

Recover Sql And Analysis Service Data From Disk Crash

A customer of mine has had a disk "crash" few days ago.
I wrote for him a dwh application and
of course the backup was not working...
now some "hardware guys" said that it is possible to recover most of
the files.
what I need to restore would be:
1- the sql server db
2- the sql server dts and jobs
3- the analysis service cube and dimensions
to do so is it enough for me to have:
1- the .mdf and .ldf files
2- the master.mdl /.ldf file
3- the .odb file and .dim* and .role .map ... files
right?
is it enough to recover everything?
if it is so, what would be the right processes to recover everything? "
