Current Acitvity - Wait Types
Feb 9, 2001When I run some of the quiries, in current activity, wait type would say:
PAGEIOLATCH_SH what does it means ? Is there a source I can see all
types of wait types ?
Help is much appreciated.

Sql Types - Simple SQL Server Queries/handling Variable Types
May 26, 2005SQL Server 2000, ASP.Net 1.1
I've been writing this stuff for a while, and can't seem to come to the
conclusion of how I should be retrieving data and assigning this data
to variables.
Since i'm using SQL Server, I'm convinced that I should be using the
datareaders GetSqlDouble (or whatever) function, but this would mean i
need my local variables to be one of the SQL types. The problem
with that is, that there will have to be lots of conversions done by me
to be able to use a SQL type in my application.
For instance, I have a class where i'm retrieving dates. In order
to retrieve them correctly (Null values included), I need to retrieve
them with GetSqlDateTime(), then when it comes time to display the date
in a table, i must first check for nulls, then convert to a
string. This seems to be very cumbersome. Would I be better
off just using GetDateTime(), and the .ToString method, and ignoring
Sql Types all together?
so, basically, how are you guys using your sql server data? with
the supplied sql types, and doing all of the post-processing work
manually? I feel like i'm having trouble conveying my
issue...hopefully someone knows what i mean....i'd just like some
direction to save trouble in the long run, since i feel like there's
got to be a better way...
Confused!
Thanks,

Get Rows Between Current Date And Current Time
Jun 8, 2008I've this query
SELECT
t1.ID, t1.Date, t1.Time,
t1.VALUE
FROM RESULT WHERE t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
Let's say, current date is 8 AUG 2005 and current time is 2045
So, i will get
ID | Date (this is datetime) | Time (this is integer) | Value
--------------------------------------------------
204 | 8/1/2005| 2359 | 90
205 | 8/1/2005| 2250 | 99
206 | 8/1/2005| 1950 | 88
...
...
207 | 8/7/2005| 1845 | 77
208 | 8/7/2005| 2255 | 77
209 | 8/7/2005| 2140 | 77
Can someone can show me to filter data between
t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND TIME>=CurrentTime
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101) AND TIME<=CurrentTime
If current date is 8 AUG 2005 and current time is 2045, so the result shown as follow
ID | Date (this is datetime) | Time (this is integer) | Value
--------------------------------------------------
204 | 8/1/2005| 2359 | 90
205 | 8/1/2005| 2250 | 99
...
...
207 | 8/7/2005| 1845 | 77
I only have this query,
SELECT
t1.ID, t1.Date, t1.Time,
t1.VALUE
FROM RESULT WHERE t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
lack of idea to put the TIME condition.

One Or More Columns Do Not Have Supported Data Types, Or Their Data Types Do Not Match.
Oct 20, 2007
Hi,
I´m exporting an ms-excel file, then I use a lookup transformation to get a field from a SQL Server 2005 table. The Lookup transformation editor, after selecting the table, shows a warning that says:
at least one mapping between a column from available input columns ans a column from available lookup columns must be defined on the columns page.
So I try to make a relationship in the Lookup transformation editor's column tab where I find the Available input columns and the available lookup columns but I get the following error:
The following columns cannot be mapped:
[Department, DEP_CLEGALCODE]
One or more columns do not have supported data types, or their data types do not match.
The field in SLQ Server is varchar(10) and the input field is a derived column transformation; I have tried different Data Types but I always have the same error.
The DataFlow is: ExcelSource --> Derived Column --> Lookup --> Flat file destination
thanks.
PAGEIOLATCH_SH Wait
Aug 1, 2000I am running into problems while running a large procedure, and i think it may have something to do with a PAGEIOLATCH_SH wait problem.
My server, whose sole purpose is to run this one procedure, is doing plenty of disk i/o, and the CPU’s bouncing around, so I assume it’s working. But when I look at its process info, it seems to be sleeping a lot of the time on PAGEIOLATCH_SH. No other users are in the DB, so I'm quite confused. I don't find much info on this anywhere, so any insight would be very appreciated.
Event Wait
Jan 15, 2008I'm new to SQL Sever 2005 and I'm trying to do what Informatica (Power Center - ETL) is trying does.
I have created a work flow and it is scheduled to run at every night 1:00 AM .The process is to load a flat file (CRV.data) into the database from a shared location.The flat file is transfered from a 3rd party and once the file transfer is complete it will create a indicator file (0 byte eg: CRV.DONE file) which indicates the CRV.data transfer is complete.
In my workflow I will be waiting for the CRV.DONE indicator file and once it is avaiable I will start loading the CRV.data and once the load is completed I will delete CRV.DONE file and be ready for the next day load.
Please let me know if there is any way in SQL Server 2005 to achieve it.Thanks
Wait For A Response?
Jun 11, 2007Hi. We are migrating a mainframe datacom database to SQL Server. One of our client-server applications already uses SQL Server. This application uses a middleware product to query and update the datacom database being migrated. We are considering using Service Broker to replace the middleware.
In many cases the client does not need a response provided the message is queued and will eventually get delivered. However, in some cases the client would like to wait for the message to be processed before proceeding. Is there an easy way to both submit and optionally wait for a response - with data - in a single stored procedure? If client does not want to continue to wait, is there a way to use a procedure to check for the returned message later?
We have not used Service Broker before and are doing for a "sanity" check before proceeding. We do not want to tightly couple the two databases at this time.

Sysprocesses Says: Wait Forever
Sep 30, 2004I'm doing an update on a table with about 113m rows, the update-statement is fairly simple: update tab set col = null where col is not null.
The col column is mostly null.
Sysprocesses shows three rows for this statement: 1 CXPACKET (its a dual processor, 2000 box with sp3 installed), 2 PAGEIOLATCH_SH (waitresource is filled). My guess would be that the where-clause is executed in a seperate process blocking the update.
I changed the statement into update [...] set col = null; sysprocesses shows one row with PAGEIOLATCH_SH. Executing forever.
I checked other processes including those outside sqlserver but none are using the db, let alone accessing the table involved. Even restarted sqlserver to be sure there's no dead process blocking the update. Didn't help.
So I added a search condition to the where-clause, involving a clustered index in order to reduce the rowcount. The execution plan shows a 97% hit on the clustered index, but sysprocesses shows the three rows again...
So far the profiler didn't help me out either: there's a SP: CacheInsert on the update-statement... then nothing.
What should I do?
Wait Type: NETWORKIO
Jan 14, 2005I have an ASP.NET web application that hangs on a single database UPDATE command for 5+ minutes. I can see this occur in SQL Profiler. This is a one row UPDATE statement on a small table (~600 rows). There are no JOINs or sub queries. There are no other users using the system. During this 5+ minutes, I can see the job in Enterprise Manager with a wait type of NETWORKIO. Since both IIS And SQL Server are running on the same system, the network shouldn't be an issue. Any ideas?

Aug 31, 2006I'm writing a small vbscript to backup a db and some related files, so I used a WSShell calling OSQL to run a Sql BACKUP command, then after it's finished I XCOPY the resulting file plus some other related files. But the problem is that OSQL ends it's execution as soon as the BACKUP command is sent to SqlServer, not when the backup itself ends.
Anyone knows how to synchronize the two? How to wait, inside OSLQ, for the end of the BACKUP execution?

Causes For Latch Wait Time
Jan 6, 2008I setup a SQL Agent to send me an email when the Average Latch Wait Time is greater than 300ms. Now I receive an email every 15 seconds stating that the current ALWT is 3916ms. That value never changes with the emails. However, the perfmon shows nothing at all (shows zero).
I also have a Buffer cache hit ratio of 2848.00.
These numbers are when there is NOBODY on the DB at all It is just sitting there. When I reboot the server, as soon as SQL starts it starts to send the emails again.
Server: Intel Xeon Quad Core 2.66
RAM: 4GB (with /3GB in the boot.ini)

RAID 1: Data (DB and logs)
CPU Utilization: 0-1%

OS: Server 2003 R2 With SP2
SQL: 2005 Standard with SP2
How can I determine if the ALWT is really 3916?
I executed 'Select * from sysprocesses where SPID>50 and waittime>0'
Which showed;
BROKER_RECEIVE_WAITFOR
waittime=110640ms
waittype=0x0075

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

SSIS Job To Wait And Run After AS400 Job
Mar 7, 2008
We have a few SSIS jobs that we are currently manually kicking off after we are sure that certain AS400 jobs have run. We want to completely automate this process, so that we don't have to babysit. What is the most efficient way to do this? In the past (on SQL Server 7 no less) I've seen the 400 job setting a flag to 'Y' in a 400 file, FTPing it down to a flat file, and then the SQL job running every five minutes checking the flag. When it was 'Y', the SQL job would run. We do not have the option of using FTP here. Any suggestions would be appreciated! After the job runs, we'd like it to kick off a report as well
SQL Start /wait Command?
May 16, 2008So, I'm fairly new to SQL, and I'm working with a SQL2k5 Database with pre-made packages and what-not. This database was setup before I started this job, and now I'm trying to improve part of the processing in SQL, and so far so good, but I can't figure a couple things out.
The main problem is when I start a SQL command to launch a DTS package from a .sql file, how can I make it wait for the package to complete or fail before moving onto the next part of the .sql script? Hope it's a simple question, I've just taught myself enough SQL to get by in a couple of weeks.
Thanks!

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow To Wait For File Before Continuing
Apr 11, 2007Good morning,
I will start off with the default warning message: I am a beginner. That said, I have an SSIS process that calls an external executable to transform a data file through a homegrown C program. (This will eventually be converted, but for the moment needs to remain.) The end of the run creates a *.done file. How do I use the SSIS tasks to pause/wait, checking periodically, for the existence of this file before continuing with processing tasks? I apologize if this is easy, but I am stumped.
Thanks in advance,

Chronic CXPACKET Wait Issue

Why Does UNION ALL Wait For A Row From Each Input Buffer?
Dec 13, 2006Hello,
It seems strange to me that once the UNION ALL component waits for at least one row from each input buffer before it puts anything into the output buffer (that's the behaviour that I have observed anyway).
Why does it do that?

DB Engine :: Histogram Of Wait Events
Oct 5, 2015I would like to know what a particular session is waiting on (cpu, io, memory etc).
For that I try to figure out how to use extended events. I would prefer to avoid the use files written to db-server, why I tried "histogram target".
Well my attempt does not produce usefull output,
-- check current event sessions
SELECT a.name,
CASE WHEN b.name IS NOT NULL
THEN 'Started'
ELSE 'Stopped'
END AS current_state
[Code] ....
The intention was to get a pareto chart, to see the top wait events in the session. I would also like to see amount of cpu used. Based on this tuning effort could be prioritized.
Moving Data From One Filegroup To Another.....but Wait, There Is More!!
May 13, 2008OK, I know this is out there all over and yes I did a search for this topic; however, I am confused about tables with an image data type and with moving text file group to another filegroup.
Here is what I have:
I have a table storing imaged documents and has become very large. I want to move the table to another filegroup. The table is created like this:
USE [PD51_Data]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[SCANNEDDOCUMENTS] Script Date: 05/13/2008 14:52:40 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SCANNEDDOCUMENTS](
[DocID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[CaseID] [int] NOT NULL,
[DocName] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[Doc] [image] NOT NULL,
[DocLocation] [varchar](255) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[DocNotes] [text] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
[TopicID] [int] NULL,
[ScannedDocumentsCheckSum] [varchar](128) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[DocID] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
GO
SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SCANNEDDOCUMENTS] WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [ISCANNEDDOCUMENTS2] FOREIGN KEY([TopicID])
REFERENCES [dbo].[TOPICS] ([TopicID])
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SCANNEDDOCUMENTS] CHECK CONSTRAINT [ISCANNEDDOCUMENTS2]
On a test DB, I moved the clustered and nonclustered indexes to a secondary filegroup no problem, but it still shows to be stored in the primary filegroup. I read an article about having to create a new table in the secondary in order to move the images and text file group. Has anyone come across this?
Do I need to drop the clustered index and FK to move to a secondary filegroup?
Or
Do I create a new table into the secondary filegroup and then add the Clustered index and constraints?

View 4 Replies View RelatedBackup Hangs In Wait-state MSSEARCH
Oct 11, 2006I'm experiencing a very annoying failure when trying to do a backup - I hope you can help where others (including me) have failed.
The setup is a SharePoint Portal Server 2003 version 11.0.8126.0 running on Windows server 2003 Standard edition Service pack 1; it has a SQL-server 2005 version 9.0.2047 running on Windows server 2003 Standard edition Service pack as a back-end.
When I issue a backup of the SharePoint database XXX_SITE which holds round 4 gb. of data (mainly documents) the backup process hangs with a Wait Type 'MSSEARCH', it makes no difference whether I issue it as a single job, or through a maintenance plan.
I tried to stop the MsSearch service on the SharePoint-server, and disabled the Full-Text search on the database but it makes no difference.
The only way I can get a backup is to reboot the server on which SQL-server resides (restarting the SQL-server makes it rather unstable), and do a manual back-up shortly after.
