I want to understand ACID properties through sql queries.
I have seen real world example everywhere but if I want to test it then how do I use sql queries to understand practically on my PC?

Can anyone tell me the practical use of ACID properties. I know theory available in books. But where it will implement practically I am confused.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have an ODBC connection string that is working fine with the following properties:
Database="XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY"; strangely no server is specified in the string, but it is specified in the ODBC Connection file.
I am trying to do a new server registration in SSMS for this database.However, I don't understand where the network spec is placed.
Under Registered server name I've tried:
YYYYYYXXXXX
When I browse the server for the database instance list, I receive "network path was not found".
I even tried:"XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY" for the registered server name.Same error message.
What am I doing wrong ?
is there anyway to retrieve the database properties and display in an asp.net web form as a quick over view rather than logging onto the server to check, items such as size, space available, last backup data etc? Cheers

specifying the default database means what. for instance when I add alog in user and I have to choose a default database. Does it make a difference if the Default database is Master or any other user database name. What is the significant to select Master vs any other database.
Thanks,
Ahmed
Hello!
We are having problems with a single SQL Server where the Server properties will not save, and always revert to the default.
It occurs only on those tabs with "configured" and "running" options at the bottom. Other tabs will keep the settings we custom.
The big problem is with the memory and processor tabs which even when we've made only a single change and stopped and started the service, reverts back to a default.
Any clues - we are logged in as "sa" and have not removed the SA priviledges.
Thanks for any help,
Simon
Once upon a time, I went to check the properties of an instance and EM just hung - anyone know why this might happen?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,
Plz help me to know whats wrong with following script:
EXEC sp_addextendedproperty
@name = 'col_Programs_ID_Description',
@Value = 'The Unique Identifier for a specific Program',
@level1Type = 'Programs',
@level2Type = 'ID'
I get the following error:
Server: Msg 15600, Level 15, State 1, Procedure sp_addextendedproperty, Line 42
An invalid parameter or option was specified for procedure 'sp_addextendedproperty'.
NOTE: If I dont use the last 2 parameters this procedure runs fine, but it adds the Extended Property to the Database Level while I'm trying to add it to the TABLE-->COLUMN level.
Thanks

Running SQL2000 SP3.
We installed an application named Streamserve. Now, if I go into Enterprise Manager I can expand the databases fine. But when I try to right-click properties Enterprise Manager goes bye bye. No error messages. I tried this on master and same thing. I currently have 2 different machines - a dev and a QA box and both are behaving badly.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
when ever I try to look at the properties of a job, the create new job window appears. what gives?
When I create a new database it asks for information regarding the Data files.
What is it for? Will this file get creted to the location that I write?
How often will it get copied there?

Hello
Im having abit off trouble with my images positioning..
I have 3 images in the header placed side by side with a rectangle around them sent to the back
In layout view the images look correct, however when i deploy the report the rectangle appears on top and then the images appear undernealth each other...when they should be inside the rectangle. is there something like float on top properties similar to objects in Word?
A separate question, I also have a table to the right off the table i have an image and under that image another image...when i preview the report the second image is pushed to the bottom of where the table ends...is there someway to make the image appear side by side to the table instead off getting pushed down to the bottom...something similar to a frame in HTML ?
thanks
Hi.
I am trying to look for ways on how to get all the databse properties under each instance.
say I want to view the size, recovery model, physical location, etc.
The sys.database_files is only applicable per database. Is there a query, or a table in master database to get these or store these values?
thanks...
Hi:
Does anyone know of a good primer on extended properties and why I would want to use them. I have you the on-line books sections but that does a clear "why". I have search for white papers and similar documents.
I understand they are good for documentation, but I was looking for something that explain Microsoft long-term vision. How I might use them in template scripts, VSTS, etc.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi all, Is it possible when creating a stored procedure through visual studio using a sql server 2005 project, to set the sizes of the parameters that are specified. For example:
public partial class test{ [Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure] public static void addRecord(string name, string details) { ................. some code ................. }}
Would it be possible to set the size of the parameter 'details' to nvarchar(max) and 'name' to nvarchar(50) or something along those lines. The problem at the moment is that when this project is deployed both of the parameters are set to 4000 characters and sometimes the details parameter are greater than 4000 characters and it is being truncated.
I am currently running some sql that alters the procedure to set the sizes of the parameters but this isn't really an ideal solution.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

I am trying to find information on Database properties - more specifically, what the 'Space Available' means, because right now when I look at the properties of a database I am setting up, which will grow substantially I am sure, it says the database size is 154 MB and the Space Available is 42 MB. What is the Space Available? What does this refer to and is it going to be restricting the growth of the database? Thanks.

I have a chart that is created in SSRS with the size property set to '15cm, 8.5cm', I want to set the height based on a parameter that is passed to the chart ( so that it fits onto a 1 page report it is fed through to), I have tried putting =Code.SetChartHeight() in the height property but it brings up an error saying it needs to be in a format like '8.5cm'. The SetChartHeight() function just returns the height parameter + 5.
Does anyone know how I can do this?
Many thanks in advance

There are many options that are settable that are not in the Sql Server Propreties, but

Is it possible to change the database name defined in the destinatation table definition of the transformation object programmitacally?
We have different database names between dev and prod. The package was created against dev. I'm trying to copy the package to the prod server and programmatically change the database name where necessary.
Has anybody used the "Use fast load" or "Table lock" options in the advanced DTS package properties ? These are supposed to be in the Advanced tab of the Data Transformation Properties dialog box. I cannot seen to find them. I want to set them in order to have the load execute in nonlogged mode. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Can anyone help me with displaying several table properites at once. I know I can use sp_help 'tablename' to get one at time. What is the best method to get several databases at a time?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,
I recently came across a DTS made by an experienced DBA and was impressed by the use of Dynamic Properties DTS Task used. As I understood the DTS was generic and if I'm not mistaken, can be easily transferred to another server/machine on an AS IS basis and without having to change any of the properties (server name, login, password etc.) for the source or destination server.
This seems to be a really neat feature.
I tried to put this to use but am having problems regarding how to proceed... Unfortunately I have not been able to find any article either which addresses this particular request and takes a novice step by step so that this feature can be used.
Will appreciate any help.
Thanks
Hello, Everyone:
There are some databases in a SQL Server. How to check,
1. User database numbers
2. Backup plan
3. Configuration
4. User database size
5. Nightly process
Thanks a lot

Does anyone know what the different values are (and what they mean) on the "Database Locking Mode" column off of the advanced button on a microsoft access connection within a DTS package on SQL server 7.0 ?
It's a 4 byte signed integer type with a default value of zero

I've been asked to provide some information about databases on an sql server.
I can use the following query to provide the names of all the databases:
select * from master.dbo.sysdatabases
What I'm also looking to provide is the current "size" of the database. I'm trying to find a table that I can link to that would provide the database size. I can manually find this number by right clicking on the database from enterprise manager, selecting "properties" and picking it up from the general tab.
This is sql server 2K...
Thanks.
Hello. I just started using SQL Server Management Studio Express. I am creating a new table by right-clicking the "Tables" folder and selecting "New Table". Then i hit F4 to bring up the "Properties" (because I want to associate a Schema to the table, but when the "Properties" section appears, it's blank. I can't figure out a way to get anything to appear there. Any ideas? Thanks!...
