DB Updates When Limited To Bak/trn Files Only
May 21, 2007
Hi,
I couldn't make a clear title without writing 2 lines.
My problem (I tried to find out through the archives):
this scenario will be used for several DBs on severals servers.
The remotes servers are not mine, I have only access to the backups files, I have no rights to setup a replication relationship.
I'm using a repository server with SQL 2005, and daily, I need to get the latest Full backup from an SQL2000 server, copy it to the repository server, restore it then delete the .bak file.
This is possible by using many different scripts (like .vbs to copy and rename the latest Full backups) then I use SQL job for daily restore.
Process is too long and the time estimated to start next task (and the backup keep growing).
Is there a way to do everything via SQL2005 script (job)?
Initially, the problem is that I have to do this with the Full backups every days (around 5 Dbs 8 Go in average). So if I can use the latest transaction log files (that would eliminate my first question).
The best way is to use log shipping as well but sql2005 is needed on both sides.
Hope I'm clear.
Thanks for any help!

I have a project that consists of a SQL db with an Access front end as the user interface. Here is the structure of the table on which this question is based:
Code Block
create table #IncomeAndExpenseData (
recordID nvarchar(5)NOT NULL,
itemID int NOT NULL,
itemvalue decimal(18, 2) NULL,
monthitemvalue decimal(18, 2) NULL
)
The itemvalue field is where the user enters his/her numbers via Access. There is an IncomeAndExpenseCodes table as well which holds item information, including the itemID and entry unit of measure. Some itemIDs have an entry unit of measure of $/mo, while others are entered in terms of $/yr, others in %/yr.
For itemvalues of itemIDs with entry units of measure that are not $/mo a stored procedure performs calculations which converts them into numbers that has a unit of measure of $/mo and updates IncomeAndExpenseData putting these numbers in the monthitemvalue field. This stored procedure is written to only calculate values for monthitemvalue fields which are null in order to avoid recalculating every single row in the table.
If the user edits the itemvalue field there is a trigger on IncomeAndExpenseData which sets the monthitemvalue to null so the stored procedure recalculates the monthitemvalue for the changed rows. However, it appears this trigger is also setting monthitemvalue to null after the stored procedure updates the IncomeAndExpenseData table with the recalculated monthitemvalues, thus wiping out the answers.
How do I write a trigger that sets the monthitemvalue to null only when the user edits the itemvalue field, not when the stored procedure puts the recalculated monthitemvalue into the IncomeAndExpenseData table?

Hi...
I have data that i am getting through a dbf file. and i am dumping that data to a sql server... and then taking the data from the sql server after scrubing it i put it into the production database.. right my stored procedure handles a single plan only... but now there may be two or more plans together in the same sql server database which i need to scrub and then update that particular plan already exists or inserts if they dont...
this is my sproc...
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_Import_Plan]
@ClientId int,
@UserId int = NULL,
@HistoryId int,
@ShowStatus bit = 0-- Indicates whether status messages should be returned during the import.
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE
@Count int,
@Sproc varchar(50),
@Status varchar(200),
@TotalCount int
SET @Sproc = OBJECT_NAME(@@ProcId)
SET @Status = 'Updating plan information in Plan table.'
UPDATE
Statements..Plan
SET
PlanName = PlanName1,
Description = PlanName2
FROM
Statements..Plan cp
JOIN (
SELECT DISTINCT
PlanId,
PlanName1,
PlanName2
FROM
Census
) c
ON cp.CPlanId = c.PlanId
WHERE
cp.ClientId = @ClientId
AND
(
IsNull(cp.PlanName,'') <> IsNull(c.PlanName1,'')
OR
IsNull(cp.Description,'') <> IsNull(c.PlanName2,'')
)
SET @Count = @@ROWCOUNT
IF @Count > 0
BEGIN
SET @Status = 'Updated ' + Cast(@Count AS varchar(10)) + ' record(s) in ClientPlan.'
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @Status = 'No records were updated in Plan.'
END
SET @Status = 'Adding plan information to Plan table.'
INSERT INTO Statements..Plan (
ClientId,
ClientPlanId,
UserId,
PlanName,
Description
)
SELECT DISTINCT
@ClientId,
CPlanId,
@UserId,
PlanName1,
PlanName2
FROM
Census
WHERE
PlanId NOT IN (
SELECT DISTINCT
CPlanId
FROM
Statements..Plan
WHERE
ClientId = @ClientId
AND
ClientPlanId IS NOT NULL
)
SET @Count = @@ROWCOUNT
IF @Count > 0
BEGIN
SET @Status = 'Added ' + Cast(@Count AS varchar(10)) + ' record(s) to Plan.'
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @Status = 'No information was added Plan.'
END
SET NOCOUNT OFF
So how do i do multiple inserts and updates using this stored procedure...
Regards
Karen

I have a search query on my page. However, since the resultset may be very large, I want to retreive only those results that are currently shown on the gridview page.Often a user won't browse through more than a couple of pages, so it's b-*** to send all the records to the client.I know that with a sp you can define that you want to retrieve the first or second x records, but I want to do this with SQL...is that possible?

I'd like to create a limited user on SQL Server 2005 to minimize any possible problems with my ASP.NET 2.0 website. My question is how limited can I make that user? What exactly does it need to be able to do?
(In case it makes a difference, my site utilizes membership, profiles, and roles, as well as some custom tables and stored procedures that I created.)
Thanks in advance for any advice! :-)

Hiya - this might be a bit of a simple question but please bear with me! I have looked reasonably hard for this but can not find an answer:
I have an MSSQL 2000 server running on PC-A and would like to limit certain users (e.g. admin) to be only able to logon when using the actual PC-A machine.
I am aware that you can acheive this in MySQL with the "insert into user (host, user, password) values (localhost, username, password);" command. Is there an equivalent way to do this in MSSQL?
Thanks for your help,
Alistair.

I created a login in SQL Server 2005 for SQL Server Reporting Service training purpose. It seemed the login exceed the connection limit. There were 9 people in the training and some people got the connection errors. Sometimes the connection error went away after the user re-established the connection. Is there a default limit per login? If so, what is the default? Can I change it to unlimited? And how?
Thanks.

I want to use TRIGGER_NESTLEVEL to test if a specific trigger is on the execution stack.
Normally, the table with the trigger is accessed by stored procedures and the user does not have any direct access to the table.
I am having problems doing this because I need to use OBJECT_ID to get the ID to pass to TRIGGER_NESTLEVEL. OBJECT_ID is unable to see the table when the stored procedure is run as that limited user account.
How can I use TRIGGER_NESTLEVEL in this scenario without granting this user permissions on the table?
Here is complete code to reproduce. The output is:
Nest level is: 1 (running as admin)
Nest level is: (null) (running as limited user)
The output that I want would have a 1 instead of (null). Hard coding the specific OBJECT_ID is not the solution that I am looking for, since I want to use identical database scripts on separate installs of my database.
Code Block
IF OBJECT_ID(N'Hello') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE Hello
IF DATABASE_PRINCIPAL_ID(N'TestUser') IS NOT NULL DROP USER TestUser
IF OBJECT_ID(N'HelloProcedure') IS NOT NULL DROP PROCEDURE HelloProcedure
GO
CREATE TABLE Hello
(
ID INT PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY,
Data INT NULL
)
GO
CREATE TRIGGER HelloTrigger1
ON Hello
FOR INSERT
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
UPDATE Hello SET Data = 1234 WHERE ID IN (SELECT ID FROM inserted)
GO
CREATE TRIGGER HelloTrigger2
ON Hello
FOR UPDATE
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
PRINT N'Nest level is: ' + ISNULL(CAST(TRIGGER_NESTLEVEL(OBJECT_ID(N'HelloTrigger1')) AS NVARCHAR(128)), N'(null)')
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE HelloProcedure
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
INSERT INTO Hello VALUES (0)
GO
CREATE USER TestUser WITHOUT LOGIN
GO
GRANT EXECUTE ON HelloProcedure TO TestUser
GO
EXEC (N'HelloProcedure') -- Prints: Nest level is: 1
GO
EXEC (N'HelloProcedure') AS USER = N'TestUser' -- Prints: Nest level is: (null)
GO

I got a report that seems to be limiting its displayed data to the first 8 records but not in the SQL statement itself. Although I have been working with SQL for many years I'm very new to Reporting Services so it may be something very simple, like perhaps a property that can be changed on the report for me to increase the amount of records the report is pulling from the database?
I don't seem to find any property set to 8 though.
Also the report is not pulling the records in the order the query pulls them, but in an apparent random order, I don't need to change this but it may help describe the report a bit better.

Hi, I am trying to create a SQL Server user which would only have write permissions. This account would not be able to read, drop, alter, delete etc. It would simply be used to write data.
Is there a way to configure a user like this without scripting the permissions for each table. The DB has some dynamically generated tables, so the users privillges would ideally extend to those newly added tables without having to rerun some kind of script. Is this possible?

Hi, we have a generic way to call DTS
CREATE procedure dbo.run_our_dts @Our_dts_namevarchar(8000)
as
declare@retcodeint
declare @run_sqlvarchar(8000)
select @run_sql = 'dtsrun /S '+@@servername+' /E /N '+@Our_dts_name
print @run_sql
exec @retcode=master..xp_cmdshell @run_sql
if @retcode<>0
begin
Raiserror('DTS RUN ERROR',16,1)
end
it works fine but ,Only users with SysAdmin privileges can execute CmdExec and ActiveScripting job steps
we don't want to disable this setting
Does anyone now extended procedure
similar to xp_cmdshell, with abilty to
start dtsrun ?
Thank you

Hi
Does anyone here know why xp_fixeddrives with a limited user returns an empty result set on 2005?
In essence I want to create a report which shows disk space remaining, an upgrade of an old one. It works fine on 2000, but seems to need sysadmin rights on 2k5. I would appreciate it if someone can suggest how to get it working - or an alternative solution!
Cheers

someone recently told me that their bcp export of a table with over MAX_INT rows failed because BCP hit an overflow in the internal counter that bcp uses to tell you how many rows it's exported. You know how it write "rows copied to host file: 40000" to stdout? That number got to MAX_INT, then went negative, then BCP crashed. So they had to start all over and break things up with the -F, -L flags.
I was rather surprised that a program that claims to handle "bulk" data would use a 32 bit int to accumulate the count. I suppose the original sybase dev figured nobody would ever want to export more than 2b rows.
just wondering, has anyone seen this before?
I am about to kick off a similar large export and am planning to break it up so as not to hit this, but that also means I won't be able to verify that it is indeed a problem.

I am trying to insert records via ASP, with a user that has only writeaccess to the table (db_datawriter, db_denydatareader).That way, if the server is ever compromised, the access informationstored in the source code's connection string will not allow anybody toactually read the database.The problem is that I would like to use ADO methods to insert the data(to prevent SQL injections), but I can't seem to get the rightconnection. It works in plain SQL, but I'd rather not use it.My current code looks like this:connection="Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;User ID=DBwriter;Password=XXX;DataSource=MYSERVER;Initial Catalog=MYDB;"set conn=server.createobject("ADODB.Connection")conn.mode=2 ' adModeWriteconn.open connectionSet rs = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Recordset")rs.Open "MYTABLE", conn, adOpenKeySet, adLockPessimistic, adCmdTablers.AddNewrs.Fields("testfield") = "TESTDATA"rs.UpdateAnd the error I get is:Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (0x80040E09)SELECT permission denied on object 'MYTABLE', database 'MYDB', owner'dbo'.(If I use a User with read privileges in the connection stringeverything works fine.)

Using System.Data.SqlClient is there a limit to the number of connections an application can have to a SQLMobile dB?
If
you have a look at the url below, it says "A device can only have a
small number of connections to an instance of SQL Server at any time"
Does this mean 2, or 8 or what?
Should a app try to use only 1 connection throughout, or can we get away with 2-3?
Is this the same on WM5.0/PPP2003?
Any advice in this area much appreciated!

Hi I am using sql express to automatically generate users and logins from t-sql. I seem to be having a problem when it comes to restricting their access though. I only want them to be able to select on views and execute stored procedures. at the moment I have created a new database role, schema, login, and user, then added the user to the role but how do I restrict access to the above areas? do the restrictions go on the role, schema, or user? I must confess I find the whole schema and role issue a little confusing and just when I think I've got it, it turns out I haven't :( thanks

Can anyone help on this?
In SQL 2005, I use a variant with XML type; it seems that its size is limited here. If I assign a big data to it, it appears not assigned at all. Here is the example:
Code Snippet
declare @xml xml
--cross two table to get many records returned, if nothing is abnormal, just cross more tables here
select * from master.sys.objects a, master.sys.objects b for xml RAW, ELEMENTS
set @xml=( select * from master.sys.objects a, master.sys.objects b for xml RAW, ELEMENTS )
select @xml
--no results here for var @xml
--use single table to get fewer records returned.
select * from master.sys.objects for xml RAW, ELEMENTS
set @xml=( select * from master.sys.objects for xml RAW, ELEMENTS )
select @xml
--results as normal.
Note:here I don't want to test SQL server, I just use XML type variant as oupput for a sproc, and come across the issue here.
Any reply will be appreciated!
