DB Engine :: Clarification On MDF / LDF Sizes And Backups
Jun 7, 2015My environment looks like:
- Windows 2008R2 SP2 VM (VMware 6)
- SQL 2012 SP2 Std.
- NetApp iSCSI LUNs, Snapmanager for SQL
So I have created a test database and configured the logs to grow to max. 120MB in size.
To check the allocated and free space I right-clicked the database -> tasks -> shrink file
I see currently allocated: 5,00MB and 2,50MB free space for the MDF Database
I see currently allocated: 1,00MB and 0,63MB free space for the LDF Logfile
Next I use a data generator to fill the database with random data.
After adding around 500k rows I check the size again:
I see currently allocated: 17,00MB and 0,44MB free space for the MDF Database
I see currently allocated: 61,94MB and 0,27MB free space for the LDF Logfile
Next I take a full backup incl. truncating log files. After that I check the size again:
I see currently allocated: 17,00MB and 0,44MB free space for the MDF Database
I see currently allocated: 61,94MB and 57,24MB free space for the LDF Logfile
So now my question is where are those 56,97MB? I imagined they should now be added to the MDF file but they seem to be just gone. I did this procedure 2x more time and the MDF stays the same size while the LDF is almost empty after backups. Then I thought maybe its in the memory of the server so I rebooted it. But still the MDF has the same size... Is this normal? How it should work?
List Of All Table Sizes In A Databases
Mar 6, 2000Hi,
Is there a query I can run to retrieve a list of all tables and their sizes in a database? I want something that is like the feature in Enterprise Manager when you click on a database and then the 'Tables & Index' link. It lists the tables and their respective size. I want to push this into a spread sheet.
The reason why I am doing this is the compare data between 2 different databases. Since I cannot find a tool that will compare the data, the closest I can get (without bcp-ing out all data and comparing) is to look at the sizes of each table.
Thanks!
Joyce

Nov 19, 2015In SQL Server, is there a way to list all the data pages, index pages, IAM pages, etc. for a given user table? Like this:
Data pages: (1, 200), (1, 201)
Index pages: (1, 202)
Or if that is impossible, then is it possible to list only the data pages for a table?

View 2 Replies View RelatedDatabase Design Where Some Products Are T-shirts With Different Sizes
Feb 27, 2007Hello,
I'm wondering what would be the best approach to designing a database that will have different products one of them being T-Shirts of different sizes... for example 1 t-shirt design might only have 2 available sizes while another may have 4. I'm kinda stumped on how to approach this cuz there is multiple products like CD's, DVD's, Magazines etc which is pretty straight forward, but the T-shirts have this "variable" to it.
What i'm really wondering is should i have 1 main "Products" Table or should i have a separate table for the t-shirts? Should there be a column for each available size?
Currently my database has a "products table" that has foreign keys to "Product Type", "Artists", "Genre"
The database is basically for a record company
If anyone has designed a database similar to this i'd love any insight or even possibly to see a database diagram
Thanks

Is It Neccesary To Restart Sql Server Engine After Modifying A Noise Word List?
Sep 26, 2007
Hello all,
We are using sql server 2005 for full text searching.
I removed some of the words in the noise word file (noiseENU.txt) and rebuilt the catalog. However i find that the changes made to the noise file do not reflect immediately. I had to restart sql server engine before my queries returned results according to the updated noise list. Is there a workaround for this ( wherein there isnt the neccesity of restarting sql server engine....this is becoming a problem on live environments as i cannot restart the server when needed)?
Thanks in advance,

Finding Database Sizes And Unallocated Space On A Server Wide Scale
Apr 22, 2008
Morning forum,
I'm having a problem to which I'm sure the answer is simple...
All I want is a list of databases on my server with their allocated size and the free space within. Something similar to the first table that sp_spaceused gives you but on a server wide scale.
As I say, I'm sure there's a simple solution out there, but alas Google has failed me.
Thanks in advance,

Aug 18, 2007
I have MS-Access as data source for one of the reports. I can preview the report fine from BI studio however, it does not work when I deploy it on report server.
The error is :
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source '<data source name>'.
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '<UNC location of the MS-Access database>'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
MS-Access database is located on a different server.
Any help to solve this? I understand it has something to do with permission both on server where reporting service is running as well as the server where MS-access database is located. Pls help.

Cannot Connect To Database Engine
Apr 30, 2008Hi,
I've just installed a brand new instance of SQL on a new server. It's for our Helpdesk/Inventory software. All I needed to install was the DB Components and the Tools (primarily for Management Studio). I did not install SQL as a default instance, but called it TRACKIT8 (software using this instance). I have subsequently installs SP2 before trying to connect to the DB.
I am unable to conect to the DB Engine via Management Studio. In the Server name: field, there is a blank space, so I try to browse for a server, but I get nothing. I try to manually type the name of the server (NIASSQL2, localhost etc) into the field, but I cannot connect to the engine at all. I can see the services for the Server and Server Agent have started in the SQL Server Configuration Manager and I am able to change certain field in the properties of the Server and Agent (change the path of the error logs).
Is there something I am supposed to configure before I try to connect via the Management Studio? I am looking to change the paths of the Data Files, as I don't want them on my C: partition. Plus I have other instances I want to create and install. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

DB Engine :: No Database Encryption Key Is Set
Jul 15, 2015I'm a newbie to SQL and I inherited a 2008 R2 Sql server with about 20 different databases on it. I've noticed that more than half of the databases are encrypted and I was looking to encrypt the rest but for some reason I am unable to do so. I'm assuming I already have a master key created but when I go to Options of the DB and change Encryption Enabled from False to True I get and error, "Cannot change database encryption state because no database encryption key is set." How I could use my existing key to encrypt the databases or would I have to create a separate key for each db?
