How do I move the tempdb to a different drive? It can't be dropped and it is automatically put on the same drive as the master during installation. I have moved a transaction log to a different drive, but I can't change the tempdb location. Please help.

Hello
The default location where db's are created is almost full.
Is there any way to change the default location where the .mdf and .ldf are created when I create a new db? I know I can do this when I create a new db and go select where I want it to be, but can I make it default to a different directory automatically so no human intervention is needed?

In SQL2000, there's an option to change the location of the template folder. This allows me to create a customized set of templates on a network folder and have all the developers reference the centralized location. Can the same be done in SQL2005 and how would I go about doing so?
Thanks.
I have been trying to change the location of the SQL 2005 error log. It's logging to the default location at
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLLOG
I want to move the log location to the E drive because it can get quite large. I already changed the setting in the SQL Server Error and Usage config tool, but this did not seem to make a difference.
Is there a way to move my mdf and ldf files for the tempdb and the model databases? If yes, how? I tried ti detach but SQL Server will not let me.

our reporting services DB moved and I need to tell the report manager where to find it
isn't it in a config file somewhere, i can't find it?
do i have to reinstall?
If I can get around taking a few databases offline, I'd like to. I need to get logfiles on a lower-capacity drive.
Ideally, I wouldn't like to have multiple logfiles swimming around. But, I was thinking that if I created a second logfile, and then backed up the transaction log, I might be able to remove the first logfile?
The other thought I had, was creating a second logfile, and then turning off autogrow on the first log.
Maybe there is a better solution? Maybe neither of these will work?
Thoughts?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have developed a SSIS package on my desktop and the package involves loading of XML data into a database. The XML does not have inline schema and I generated the XSD file from SSIS.
I used Derived Column and Data Conversion to load the data into the database.
Now, i want to migrate the package to a server. Now, when i change the path of the XML and XSD files, all the tasks show error such as
"Input column 'Last_Updated' (4433) has lineage id 3586 that was not previously used in data flow...."
Why is this so? I am using the same XML/XSD files after i moved to the server.
Please advice a fix for this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a report that has a matrix. That matrix can have from 2 to 16 columns dependinging on the dataset result. Right now I am forced to place this matrix on the left side of the report and make a column layout pretty narrow. When dataset has more than 13 or so columns it looks OK, but when dataset has only two or three columns it looks weird with a matrix sitting in the left corner with two or three narrow columns and a lot of empty space to the right.
Is it possible programmatically change the width of the columns depending on their number in the dataset?
Is it possible to move the location of the matrix (horizontally) depending on the number of columns in the dataset?
Thank you,
Simon.
I added a secondary data file to TEMPdb yesterday and gave it a wrong location by mistake. If I try to change the location, then I am getting an error now. I think that is because TEMPdb is in use and that is why I cant change it's secondary file's location. Do I need to take TempDB offline and then change the secondary file's location??

Hi:
I hope somebody can give me a clue for this problem. Our SQL Server was installed with default option. The SQL Server account is .SQL-Cmdexec. I tried to create two backup jobs to save daily backup files into another server. The SQL Server could not detect that server drive during the database backup set up. I knew that was because the SQL Agent account could not access to that server. I had the following questions:
1. How to grant write right to current SQL Agent account to another backup server?
2. It looks like .SQL-cmdexec is created by SQL Server default installation. If I try to change this account to another account, the Enterprise Manager is the only place to be changed or there is another place keeps SQL Agent account info.
3. If I try to give SQL Agent account access to the other servers, what is the relationship between NT User manager and SQL Agent accounts.
Thanks.

I have an NT User 'SQLAgent' with domain Admin previleges.
SQL server has 'SQLAgent' user with NT authentication and system admin previledges.
I am in process of setting up mail services for sqlmail and sql agent mail.
As a part of this process, when I log on to the server computer as SQLAgent, it doesn't let me access Enterprise manager saying
'Login could not be established to BOProd-Login failed for user 'BODomainSQLAgent'. It does allow me to connect to query analyser by providing 'user name/password'.
Any idea why connection to enterprise manager fails?
The SQLAgent service was modified to login as a domain account. SQLAgent would not start. I made sure that the account was in the Admin group on the server, I setup the account as a System Administrator in SQL. I made sure that the network protocols in Client Network Utiliity and Server Network Utility where the same as other servers using the domain account. The message I'm getting is...
SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: Unable to connect to server; SQLServerAgent cannot start).
I modified the properties for SQLAgent back to login as local account and I still get the same problem.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi all, I have some trouble with SQLAgent...when I try to schedule a jobthat invokes a script (vbs, java, cmdshell,...), SQLAgent crashes at themoment of scheduled execution. If I try to execute it manually, all worksfine. This installation runs on a cluster Win2003 and the node initiate afailover if I don't delete the job and then restart Agent (I can't start theservice before deleting that job!!!). Event viewer logs something like:"LOG] Exception 5 caught at line 191 of file ..src
efreshr.c.SQLServerAgent initiating self-termination".I've already tried to debug the service but my dump did not help me.Any suggestion?Thankscamau

All,
I have a SQLAgent job created using isqlw to run the query and output the results to a file on the C drive. However, the job never completes, which is strange since the database is fairly new and when I run the query manually in a isqlw window, it completes and outputs the file in seconds.
Any ideas where I'm failing here?
Thanks in advance,
JB

SQLAGENT CAN't START
this log:
SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: SQLServerAgent must be able to connect to SQLServer as SysAdmin, but '(Unknown)' is not a member of the SysAdmin role).
I'm going to be setting up SQLAgent to automatically send notifications on failure. My question is are there any "gotcha's" I might need to no about when doing this in a clustered environment? If the server were to failover, does the agent peform as it should?
Thanks in advance!
If you are transferring to a new server is there a good way to transfer SQLAgent jobs in bulk. Scripting out and in is one way, is there a better way

You know where to find the MAPI settings in NT?
On my account we have very separate authority between the NT system administrators and the SQL DBAs. Routinely in SQL 6.5 we would remove sa authority from the NT administrators group and add this authority to a NT database administrators group which we were members of using SQL Security manager.
We have tried to apply this same method to our implementation of SQL 7.0. We removed the sysadmin role from the BUILTINAdministrators group and added sysadmin to the DatabaseAdmin NT group which the DBAs and SQLAGENT account are members of. This appeared to work fine until we tried to run our database maintenance plans in SQLAGENT. When sysadmin role is revoked from BUILTINAdministrators the jobs in SQLAGENT using xp_sqlmaint fail with "select permission denied to sysdbmaintplans in database 'msdb' owner 'dbo'"
The SQLAGENT login is part of an NT group that has been granted sysadmin role in SQL Server. This should grant full access to SQLAGENT. What's up? Is the xp_sqlmaint using hardcoded security of some kind? I am confused. Any suggestions? We really need to revoke sysadmin from the BUILTINAdministrators group.
I have several target servers defined, i have a job that needs to run in a serial fashion (ie.. 1 target at at time) if every target kicks off the job at the same time it's going to bog down the disk drives... can this be serialized? or do i need to write a special routine...

Hi all,
Configuration : MSSQL2005 SP2 on Windows 2003 server
I have a strange issue when scheduling SSIS Job.
When I schedule it, I set the owner as the domain administrator. The scheduled job can be run manually without any problem. The scheduled job run automatically at scheduled time wihtout problem.
But , for an unknow reason, after some cycle, the job failed with the following error :
The job failed. The owner () of <name of the job> does not have server access
As you can see, the owner name is blank.
If I look to the job settings : the owner is still the domain administrator.
If I try to run it manually, the job fails with the same error.
now if I just rename the job name from <name of the job> to <name of the job2> then all problems are solved.
If we let the job failing everyday, sometimes, it starts again to work properly.
We have this issue on 2 jobs.
If anyone has faced this issue : thank you for advise.
