Calculate IOPs For Production Server?
Jan 13, 2014
We have SQl Server in the production with dozens databases that reside on a SAN in the RAID 1 configuration with SAS 10K disks. Few databases have a huge overload on the SAN (more writes than reads). As there are some performance issues we are considering new SAN.
Is there any way we can get average IOPs in this server? I tried to use PerMon but without success. I don't know if I can chose "Total" for Logical drives in PerMon for the counters? I read dozens of pages: use sqlio, take this counters, use that, but no straight way to calculate. I know that SAN could have the relevant info for IOPs but our old one doen't provide it.
how can I calculate it (without use these links or use this counters with no calculation procedure in the end)

I have this simple full text search query that works perfectly on my own computer using sql server 2005 express, however, on the production server(shared hosting)when I added the first 50+ rows, the full text search works perfect, but as the number of rows increases, the full text search can only see the first50+ rows, but not the new ones. Is there any quick solution for this or it's just a common mistake for developers for not properly indexed columns?Is there a way to re-indexed all rows without loosing data on the live server? search query: SELECT TOP 50 *FROM li_BookmarksWHERE FREETEXT(Keywords,@Keywords)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.My problem is that I need to set up a backup SQL Server 2000 machinewhich can be used in case of a failure to my primary. All databases(30 as of now) must be an up to the minute exact copy of productionand include most recent changes in data as well as any structurechanges (Tables, Views, SP's, Triggers, Users . . etc).When I tried this using Transactional Replication, the replicationprocess gets fouled up once I introduce any kind of structure changesto the DB. I've considered the idea of doing periodic backups andrestoring it to my backup SQL server, but this does not give me theconcurrency needed with 0 latency.I've seen articles that recommend using Transaction Replication with'Scheduled Table Refresh', and also doing database dumps to restore onthe backup machine, but I have not been able to find any documentationregarding this to try out. How can I implement this type of backupstrategy in SQL 2000?

This feels like a silly question, but I`m going to ask it anyway...
I have limited SQL Server experience, but have run into a wall with a client`s Web/Access combination. I need to upgrade to SQL Server. I have Beta3 installed on a development box and am very happy with it. Is anyone running this thing in a production environment? This isn`t going to be experience huge loads, so I`m tempted. Tell me if I`m crazy for wanting to try it.

Hi,I ran test data on my development machine and it took 1 minute toinsert the data. Ran the same set of data on the server and took 5minutes.Check both database and everything is the same. I even copied theproduction DB on my machine and it was taking still about 1 minute.Look at the fragmentation, and all the numbers are better on the serverthan my development machine so it should be faster.In the application I put some timer and discover that the insert istaking 0.015 ms on the server and 0 on the development. So the problemis on the insert.It is a Web application using ASP.NET.Here are the spec of the computers:Development: P4 HT 3.2GHz 1gig memory running WIN XPServer: Xeon 2.8GHz 1.5Gig memory running WIN 2000 serverAny idea how I to pinpoint the problem? I'm not at the point ofthinking that it can be the hardware, but how to verify that?ThanksFrank

Like most enterprise there is the database administrator (dba) and there are the developers(dev). The dba are conservative while the developers are also exploring their options.
One of the current usage I'm experimenting on is to provide data visualization - image for the data. Like most I needed to "create" the System.Drawing assembly in the database, marking it unsafe.
During my testing, my code had some exception and that brought down SQL Server.
I read that the CLR is better compare to the sp_OAs as well as the extended stored procedures written in C++ because it isolates the execution in a separate app domain and termination is clean - in case of any errors, it should not bring down SQL Server.
Also I read marking assembly unsafe void these benefits of isolation.
Instead of having to manage the situation where it involves code review by the dba and asking the dba to take some risk, is there a technique where all CLR code that runs in the production server does not pose stability issues.

Howdy;
I've tried this in the 'tools' area, but that didn't work too well. I suspect, I will have to generate a T-SQL code then schedule it as a job. Why I can't just drag and drop with basic desires, is beyond me, but THAT probably does exist.
anyway here is the problem
[this server has many databases, on SQL 2000 sp2]
1. User only wants me to use Monday morning's full backup, which is good in that it doesn't include transaction logs.
2. Restore that data overtop/into Developement db. = good, no data to worry about damaging.
3. User does NOT want me to do this by hand, but schedule it.
ok,
a. must do a RESTORE WITH FILELISTONLY from [?] what ?, master? and if I user the *.bak of the production, it has
a coded date field in the name entry SO, I would, I guess, have to generate all sorts of wonderful code to find the date and build a file name. Why, because using the FROM DISK = 'F:MSSQLBACKUPDBPRODUCTION_yyyyddmm.BAK' is not going to work with a wild card.
Can I do a file lookup using a 'PRODUCTION' prefix into a variable, then use that or should I look for latest file date [remember there are several database backups here], or ????
then. How does one schedule such a T-SQL. Do I save it to some text file, and invoke it using a job scheduler.
any help appreciated.
IS there an easier way.

Group,
I have an ASP.NET web application using the default ASPNETDB that I did in VWD 2005, and deployed to a production server (IIS).
I need to make a table addition to the production database (ASPNETDB). I'm trying to use SQL Management Studio to attache the database, but it keeps saying the database is locked by a process. I shut down all the services that would likely be using it, but it's still showing locked. What do I need to shut down to attach the database to make the change?
Or is there a better way to do it?

Hey everybody!
I'm getting a pretty annoying error on my production server when i want to run an app ..
Error Msg (german): SqlDateTime-Überlauf; muss zwischen 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM und 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM liegen.
Funny thing is that on my client development machine i'm not getting an error at all. The DateTimes I use (C# and SQL Server) are dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss formatted. I also don't write to the databse - only read!
Anyone familiar with this issue?
Thanks in advance & best regards!

I have a 3rd party app which gets the error below on my sql 2000 box. I can't change the app or the db, so I am going to need to tweak sql to make the plane fly. The box is a new dell quad attached to a SAN. Runs on Win 2003 with 16 gig of RAM. 450 concurrent users. Anyone think more memory would help? I have the locks set to default. Are locks more of a memory killer, or CPU?
Error: 1204, Severity: 19, State: 1
The SQL Server cannot obtain a LOCK resource at this time. Rerun your statement when there are fewer active users or ask the system administrator to check the SQL Server lock and memory configuration.

Dear All,
i'm planning to drop all the non clustered indexes (as they are not congigured well) on production database, and run the latest script to create fresh non clustered indexes on specific columns.
now my doubts are
1)will the replication affect with dropping and recreating of indexes?
2)query to drop all the non clustered indexes on that database....
can i use the query delete from sysindexes where indid>1
will the query works for me to drop all the non clustered indexes?
3)is it necessary to generate a snapshot again after creating the new indexes? or can i drop and run at subscriber also?
please guide me in this regard

How can I keep a production SQL server and DR SQL server in sync? I'm not referring to data - I can use SAN replication for that. I'm referring to the many configuration settings and objects that are external to the databases..Server settings (xp_cmdshell, etc.)LoginsServer- and database-level rolesServer- and database-level permissionsObject level permissionsMaintenance plans/SSIS packagesSQL Agent jobsJob schedulesDatabase mail configurationObjects (proxies, alerts, credentials, operators)Linked serversScheduled tasksODBC connections
I realize that many of these items can be scripted out, and periodically run on the DR server; but not all of them can be. And some, although they can be scripted, may be problematic to restore on a DR server, such as SQL Agent jobs. And even with backup scripts, it seems like developing a process to refresh a DR server would be overwhelming given the number of elements and exceptions. I'm not adverse to doing the work to create a completely scripted solution, but was curious if one already exists that handles all or most of the elements in my list.

Hi,
I have a package that I developed on my local machine and runs well. I run
it through the command line on my production server the following way:
D: estCMS_MoveContentToLive>dtexec /f
D: estCMS_MoveContentToLiveCMSMoveIte
mToLive.dtsx -de
The -de option is because i changed the default security protection level of
the package as BOL says that for the default protection level
(EncryptAllWithUserKey): "Only the user who created or exported the package
can open the package in SSIS Designer or run the package by using the dtexec
command prompt utility."
The problem is that the package does not run successfully and vomits a lot
of error message that I do not understand, such as:
<errorMessage>
Error: 2006-02-15 18:13:43.55

Source: Data Flow Task DTS.Pipeline
Description: component "Multicast" (637) failed validation and returned
error
code 0xC0048021.
End Error
</errorMessage>
Notice that at the end it says that the validation failed.
I looked on the internet but I did not found any information regarding this
issue.
I also created a dummy SSIS package that does not have any data flaw but
just have a single SQL task doing a single insert in a table. When i
execute it on the production server, it runs successfully!
Then what is wrong with my "complex" package that all the data flow
components seems to: "can not be located, even though it is registered." ???
To be exact, I have an error for all the data flow components except the
script component.
Thanks for any help.
Best regards,
Francois Malgreve
PS:
I also would like to mention that on my production server, only the SSIS
service is installed, not SQL Server itself.
When you run the setup of SQL 2005, it is indeed possible to install only
the SSIS component which is what I need in my case as SSIS packages are run
from a middle tier server and connect to various DBs.
I think this is important as I just discovered that the package can run
successfully when I run it on a server which has a full version of SQL
Server 2005. By that I mean having SQL Database Server + SSIS installed. But it will run only from the command line, if i run it from an asp.net application it won't run successfully and return the same kind of error i showed in this message. in a desesparate attempt to solve my problem, I granted more rights to the ASPNET user and NETWORK_SERVICE user by adding them in the administrator group as I quite believe it might be related to security as on that server it works well from the command line. But it did not help.

but everytime i run i need to go and manully configure the report to map the shared datasource to it. any way to pass the information in the script itself, or is there any smart way to deploy on production.

I have been doing research into the best way to do this for some time. I use SQL Server 2005 Standard so replication is out of the question.
I have discovered Slowly Changing Dimensions, Linked Servers, etc Which may help me bring the data out of Oracle 9i and into SQL. Ideally I want the data refreshed on a daily basis. I want to specify which tables and views are taken from Oracle and manage the relationships in SQL.
Any direction as to best practices for this task would be greatly appreciated. I am fairly new to the game of synchronizing two major server products but have worked extensively with data integration on smaller scales.
