DB Engine :: Keeping Service Up While Taking Drive Offline
Sep 2, 2015
I have clustered instance with two (2) data drives on it. Drive J has around 50 databases on it and drive K has about 15. One of the system administrators was trying to increase the size on K by 20 GB and he instead increased it by 200. Now he needs to take the accidental 180 GB back but the drive will need to come offline briefly. Is it possible to take the K drive offline, along with the databases whose data files resides on it, without taking the whole instance down?

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?

Last night we had a problem caused by a stored proc being deployed to only one server rather than two. I want a way to ensure that we can automatically run on a schedule a check to ensure that the 2 procs on 2 servers are the same.
I need a less robust solution that I implement tomorrow that doesn't involve buying third party tools and a more robust long term strategy that could if need make use of third party tools.

Following a disk crash whilst building an index, the metadata for a 300 million row table has become corrupt.
The index was being built on a specific file/filegroup which I was able to mark offline and the Db continued to be usable.
Unfortunately one of our processes now fails (trying to use the index that was never complete). I can't diable the index, drop the table, truncate the table or delete the data. Partial restores of the Db excluding the offending filegroup are successful, but the problem continues to be there!!!

I am trying to place a database offline.
When I right in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio on the database > Take Offline
Set offline failed for Database 'OperationsManagerAC'.
Transaction (Process ID 56) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction. ALTER DATABASE statement failed. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 1205)
So I am trying with some queries to pass the database from Single user to multi user but it fails
USE [master]
GO
ALTER DATABASE OperationsManagerAC SET MULTI_USER GO
Msg 1205, Level 13, State 68, Line 1</p><p>Transaction (Process ID 52) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.
Msg 5069, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
ALTER DATABASE statement failed.
I tried also
alter DATABASE OperationsManagerAC SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
IT FAILS AS WELL... with the same error... how to run the SQL Statements without using
How to proceed next?

Hello,
I currently have a report that has one table with rows that "can grow". When the report is generated, everything works accordingly, but if the row is too long, the row does not get cut in half, but rather, the whole row gets moved over to the next page. When this happens there ends up being a big white space from the last row to the end of the page, then the next row continues on on the next page. What I want is the row to be split if there is too much data instead of trying to keep the row in one peice. Is there an option to do this? I already have keep together unchecked.
Thanks.

Some of my receiving service side applications usually work offline, andthey only are supposed to get connected to the network once/few times a day,to send/receive Service Broker messages.Will my sending service side application (permanent connected to thenetwork) keep retrying repeatedly to connect to the receiver?- Is retrying like that time consuming?.- I don't like it keeping trying over and over. Is retrying behaviorconfigurable?thx

All,
I am looking at implementing some sort of throttling whereby "expensive" reports are setup as Subscriptions (and hence are run by the Windows Service), while all other requests go the Web Service.
My question is:
Do the two systems share any underlying systems? I understand (of course) that they use the same DB, etc. etc. However, I can't quite tell whether there is an underlying engine that is a common base or if they really just spin up different instances of the same objects and essentially each host the application separately?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi, I am relative newbie to SQLServer. When I try to take a user database offline, the query "hangs," with the query processing circle spinning. The Sharepoint 7 application is running on top of the Enterprise SQL Server 2005 db with several logins sleeping and awaiting commands. No errors are generated until I kill the offline command. Anyone have any ideas? Do I need to kill all the connections?

Hi,
this is a bit of an open-ended question. but,
is it possible that you can use SB as part of a workflow engine?
SB sends messages backwards and forwards on a conversation so I am guessing that there is some way that the application can "work out" which person to send a particular message to ?
I've seen examples like an expense form being filled in and sent to a manager, presumably you can specify if the manager accepts or rejects the expense form?
I know there is windows workflow, but, i thought using SB is an alternative?

I tried to apply the SP2 on a newly installed SQL Server 2005 Developer edition. The installation failed and the MSSQLSERVER service does not start. I work on 32 bits Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP1 with all the patches up to date. I downloaded SQL Server 2005 SP2 on March 15, 2007.

One server, a part of a 2 node always on cluster, had problems, I had to restart.
I'm getting this error for example now:
Error: 49910, Severity: 10, State: 1. (Params:). The error is printed in terse mode because there was error during formatting. Tracing, ETW, notifications etc are skipped.
+
SQL Server was unable to run a new system task, either because there is insufficient memory or the number of configured sessions exceeds the maximum allowed in the server. Verify that the server has adequate memory. Use sp_configure with option 'user connections' to check the maximum number of user connections allowed. Use sys.dm_exec_sessions to check the current number of sessions, including user processes.
Now, on the instance I have activated maximum servere memory, my question; Is it possible to adjust this setting without starting the service?
Some parameter for example?
The server itself have enough memory.

In SQL Server 2005, the SQL Server full text engine (i.e., Microsoft Full Text Filter Daemon Launcher windows service) was installed as a Generic Service cluster resource in a Windows clustered environment.
However, in SQL Server 2012, the full text engine is not appearing as a "resource" within "Failover Cluster Manager" after installation. Do we need to manually configure the full text engine as a Failover Cluster Manager "resource" for SQL 2012? Or is this not necessary? If it needs to be configured, how do you go about doing it (i.e., what resource dependencies would you setup, etc.)

Hi
I have been trying to use openrowset with a shared drive, and even though the share has "full control" permissions granted to "everyone" and the accout that SQL runs under has been granted explicit full control permissions I am unable to open the file which itself has no security on it.
Can I not use a \ path and only use mapped drives?
Thanks
below works...
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0;Database=C:5People.xls', [Sheet1$])
below doesn't work...

I am trying to move a log file from one drive to another.
What I have done is add another file to my file group. So now my log has a file on the 'e' drive and one on the 'f' drive. I now want to remove the file on the 'e' drive. I have emptied the file on the 'e' drive. When doing the command:
ALTER DATABASE Uniprodruntime
REMOVE FILE m_rk_runtime_log
I get the following error message..
Server: Msg 5020, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The primary data or log file cannot be removed from a database.
I have also gone into enterprise manager and tried to delete the file and it does nothing.
Has anyone run into this?

Hi all, here are my goals: Have the same DB on two different stand-alone computers, and keep them up-to-date from each other.
Basically a user would input to a DB for a week. Then every week or two, update the other stand alone DB with the new input. The DB would be exactly the same.
What are my options for this? I'd like it as easy as possible! Are there any software packages that deal with this type of transfer, etc.? Thank you!

Hi, I have the following code in a query:
SELECT [Issue date],DATEDIFF("dd",[Issue date],[Start date])/365 AS runningdays
FROM Database1..[Insurance Policies Working DB]
WHERE [Policy Number] LIKE '%1368529%'
The part 'DATEDIFF("dd",[Issue date],[Start date])' comes out as 364 if calculated on its own. However, then when it is divided by 365 it comes out as 0. How do I get it to show as a decimal instead of just rounding it down automatically? (Hope I've made sense)

we have a simple table
Key, Name, Address, City, State, Zip ................ect
I would like to keep this table sorted by Name, theirfore I won't have to sort my results with every querry.
I think I need to add something to my insert to tell my table - "Hay take Jones", open up the prober place and stick him in the proper spot.
Ex: We have Appleby and Robertson in our table now. My insert would tell SQL Server to take Jones, figure our where he belongs (alpha), and stick him in, resulting in.
Appleby
Jones
Robertson
This way I wont have to as the querry to sort stuff every time I reference this table, this will save lots and lots of overhead. and help keep my clients happy with quick(er) response.

Hi
We need to keep track of all changes that are made to our tables.
The changes will be saved in a table that records:
- the table in which the change was made
- the name of the field that was changed
- the old data for the field
- the new data for the field etc..
I've seen a few examples that record the name of the table that was
modified but none that record done to the field level.
Can anybody give some guidance?
Thanks..
