Cleaning Up Transaction File
Apr 16, 2002I have been getting some strange results while trying to reduce the size of a transaction log file. The background is the database was fully backed up last night. There has been no activity since the backup. A transaction backup was performed 30 minuted prior to my testing. Here is what I tried:
1. dbcc shrinkdatabase ('mydb',1)
Resulted in no change to the size of the log file (Still 110meg)
2. Right clicked on the database in Enterprise Manager and selected Shrink Database. I selected the log file to shrink and it shrunk to 29meg.
3. Tried dbcc shrinkdatabase ('mydb',1) again and no change.
4. Issued backup log mydb with truncate_only and
dbcc shrinkdatabase ('mydb',1) and the size shrunk to 2 meg.
Am I doing something wrong? I thought that after a full backup and backing up the log file, the out of date log records would be able to be shrunk out.
also, why does the Enterprise Manager shrink work differently from the dbcc command?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ken Nicholson
Cleaning Up After Myself
Feb 18, 2007How should I go about releasing any objects I've created? I've got a very complex CLR stored proc that creates a dataset, many sqlcommand objects, an adapter, etc, etc. It's used to evaluate high school transcripts for completion of the core subjects. It's a very complex SP that takes a single SSN as a parameter.
Right now it works as expected when I call it from a query window in SQL Mgmt Studio, I can stack 39 calls in a row like:
exec usp_Evaluate_eTranscript '011...'
exec usp_Evaluate_eTranscript '012...'
...
exec usp_Evaluate_eTranscript '039...'
And if I build a little test harness in VB.Net calling it in a populated dataset For ... Next loop, it works just fine for the 39 valid values I have.
But, when I build a cursor in a query window in MgmtStudio I get some strange behavior, that just doesn't really make sense. I'm getting a foreign key violation and I'm not even trying to insert any rows, just updating existing ones.
So, the only possible cause that I haven't eliminated yet is that some objects are still hanging around when the cursor tries to call the SP again.
It's declared:
<Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure()> _
Public Shared Sub usp_Evaluate_eTranscript(ByVal SSN As String)
And exits with the standard End Sub.
Is there some way I can help the garbage collector along? Kick it into action? Maybe some
Set sqlcommand = Nothing or
sqlcommand.Dispose
dataset.Clear or
dataset.Dispose or somesuch thing?
I'm closing the context connection immediately after each time I use it (I have to so the next object can work).

Cleaning Up Hardcode Sections
Jan 5, 2005Hey,
Does anyone know of a neat and easy way to modify this section of hardcode:
SELECT CASE dbo.requestsbyyeartemp.themonth when '1' then 'January' when '2' then 'Febuary' when '3' then 'March'
when '4' then 'April' when '5' then 'May' when '6' then 'June' when '7' then 'July' when '8' then 'August'
when '9' then 'September' when '10' then 'October' when '11' then 'November' when '12' then 'December' end as 'themonth', etc...
Requestsbyyeartemp is a table where the numbers corresponding to the months are stored. This statement is used to make a new table where the months are stored with the proper names and not numbers.
I would sooner not have any hardcode at all if there is a simple way to do it.
Thanks

Cleaning Up MSDB Backup System Files
Feb 18, 2002I have been researching on how to cleanup four backup system files located in the MSDB database. I currently have approximately 1 million rows in each of these tables which is making my MSDB database to be 4 gig in size. I cannot find any instructions on how to gracefully clean these tables up or what to do to keep the number of rows down in these tables. The tables are backupfile, backupmediafamily, backupmediaset, and backupset. Thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedCleaning Junk Characters In .sql Files Programatically
Feb 23, 2006Back Story...
i am building a new deployment routine for one of our products using NANT (.net version of ANT). I takes all of .sql files out of vault for all non table objects and concatenates them into larger .sql files with IF EXISTS .... DROP ... GO CREATE statements which will then be fired off by osql batch files that will log the errors.
Problem...
When I open the resulting files in notepad I have junk characters (microsoft OEM stuff) in some of my object definitions which you do not see in the QA or if you opnen the file in Vault. I need to get this stuff out of there and I do not want to write a bunch of filesystem code to do it because I need this tested and ready by Friday COB. I know I can solve this by opening the problematic files in ultraedit and saving them one by one but I do have that kind of time.
Any ideas?
It's going to be a long couple of days.

Cleaning Up Merge Metadata Manually Is Not Working
Mar 4, 2007Hi all,
I'm trying delete metadata of a sql 2005 sp1 subscriber from a sql 2005 sp1 merge publication, but is not working, the "retention" parameter for the publication is 999 and this is the code I'm using:
declare @num_genhistory_rows int,
@num_contents_rows int,
@num_tombstone_rows int
declare @retcode smallint
--select count(*) from msmerge_contents
-- records before 2,633,848
exec @retcode = sys.sp_mergemetadataretentioncleanup @num_genhistory_rows OUTPUT , @num_contents_rows OUTPUT , @num_tombstone_rows OUTPUT
select retcode =@retcode
select num_genhistory_rows =@num_genhistory_rows
select num_contents_rows=@num_contents_rows
select num_tombstone_rows=@num_tombstone_rows
--select count(*) from msmerge_contents
-- records after 2,633,8
Results :
retcode
0
num_genhistory_rows
0
num_contents_rows
0
num_tombstone_rows

Has omebody any idea why this is not working ?
I did check "sp_mergemetadataretentioncleanup " and I note that is using a function to calculate the limit date, but I could not testing because it give me the below error :

select @cutoffdate = null

-- add some safety margin to compensate for different clock speeds

Cannot find either column "sys" or the user-defined function or aggregate "sys.fn_subtract_units_from_date", or the name is ambiguous.

Cleaning Up Data Files When Removing Instance (integr. Inst.)
Jun 13, 2007Hi everyone,
I'm trying to integrate SQLEXPRESS in a custom application ("the app"). On installation, a new instance ("myNewInstance") is created, and a new DB ("myDB") is created on that instance.
Upon de-installation of "the app", I remove the new instance. To that end, I'm calling the SQLEXPRESS setup like this:
Code Snippet
setup.exe /qb REMOVE=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=myNewInstance
The Problem: While the service and the instance are removed, the instance's data directory is not, and the DB Datafiles are still there. Now if I reinstall the app (re-creating myNewInstance), it uses the same directory structure, and when I try to re-create the DB, I get the following error message:
Code Snippet
Msg 5170, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot create file '[...]MSSQL.2MSSQLDATAmyDB.mdf' because it already exists. Change the file path or the file name, and retry the operation.
So here's the Question: is there
a) any way to tell setup.exe to completely remove the datafiles when uninstalling the instance, or
b) any way to tell TSQL to overwrite the old datafiles if they exist?
Thanks in advance,
Thorsten

Reporting Services :: Parsing SSRS Config File And Dynamically Changing File Path Of Config File In Code
Sep 2, 2015Currently have a single hard coded file path to the SSRS config file which parses the file and provides the reporting services web service url. My question is how would i run this same query against 100s of servers that may or may not share the same file path as the one hard coded ?
Is there a way to query the registry to find the location of the config file of any server ? which could be on D, E, F, H, etc.
I know I can string together the address followed by "reports" and named instance if needed, but some instances may not have used the default virtual directory name (Reports).
Am I going about this the hard way ? Is there a location where the web service url exists in a table ? I could not locate anything in the Reporting service database. Basically need to inventory all of my reporting services url's.

Maintenance Commands Affect On Log File / Log File Maintenance Without Log File Backups?
Jun 18, 2015I am testing some maintenance tasks sql commands such as index rebuild, index reorg, update statistics and db integrity check on a SQL Server 2014 Database. This is a new non-production vendor database (DB Size 500 GBs, Log Size 25 GBs) which eventually will be created in production. Currently, it is in full recovery model and without log backups. The database has a whole lot of indexes. I am just trying to rebuild and reorganize all the indexes (that need it), in addition to trying to get an idea of how long these maintenance task will take and the space needed in the log file to complete these tasks/commands. I would like to execute these tasks manually (the first time) to gather the duration and space required information. Eventually, I would probably schedule a weekly job to perform this maintenance.
I ran the index rebuild task on the database and noticed that the log file grew by over 50 GBs. I killed the process and truncated and shrunk the log file back down.
1. Does the index rebuild, index reorg, update statistics and db integrity check commands all use the log file?
2. Does Indexs Reorg have less impact on log file then Index Rebuild?
3. Should a truncate log and shrink log file be performed after these maintenance commands?
4. Should a full database backup be performed after these maintenance commands? Or before the maintenance commands?
I have read and understand that shrinking is not good for the database (could lead to more fragmentation and more data file growth when data is added) and I know about rebuilding indexes when fragmentation is GT 30% and reorganizing indexes when fragmentation is GT 5% and LE 30%.
Since this is a non-production database maybe I should set the recovery model to simple, run the maintenance commands and leave the database in simple recovery model unless the vendor needs it in full recovery model for some unknown reason.
5. With the simple recovery model the log file should be reused in a circular manner and not grow during these maintenance tasks. Is this correct?

Integration Services :: Get FileName Fo Each File Created Via Dynamic Flat File Destination
Jul 24, 2015Need to know how I can get the dynamic filename created in the FlatFile destination for insert into a package audit table?
Scenario: Have created a package that successfully outputs Dynamiclly named flat files { Format: C:Test’Comms_File_’ + ‘User::FileNumber’+’_’+Date +’.txt’
E.g.: Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt etc} using Foreach Loop Container :
* Enumerator Set to: “Foreach ADO Enumerator” with the ADO object source variable selected to identify how many total loop iterations there are i.e. Let’s say 4 thus 4 files to be created
*Variable Mappings : added the User::FileNumber – indicates which file number current loop iteration is i.e. 1,2,3,4
For the DataFlow task have a OLDBSource and a FlatFile Destination where Flat File ConnectionString is set up as:
@[User::Output_Path] + "Comms_File"+ @[User:: FileNumber] +"_" + replace((DT_WSTR, 10) (DT_DBDATE) GETDATE(),"-","")+ ".txt"
All this successfully creates these 4 files:
Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt, Comms_File_3_20150724.txt, Comms_File_4_20150724.txt
Now the QUESTION is how do I get these filenames as I need to insert them into a DB Audittable. The audit table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MMMAudit
(
AuditID INT IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL,
PackageName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
FileName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
LoadTime DATETIME NULL,
NumberofRecords INT NULL
)
To save the Filename & how many records in each file in our Audit Table, am using an Execute SQL Task and configuring it as this:
Execute SQL Task
Parameter mapping - Mapped the User Variable (RecordsInserted) and System Variable( PackageName) to Insert statement as shown below
SQLStatement: INSERT INTO [dbo].[MMMAudit] (
PackageName,NumerofRecords,LoadTime)
(?,?.GETDATE)
Again this all works terrific & populates the dbo.MMMAudit table as shown below BUT I also need to insert the respsctive file name – How do I do that?
AuditID PackageName FileName NumberOfRecords
1 MMM NULL 12
2 MMM NULL 23
