A Few Questions On The Tuning Advisor
Apr 2, 2007i decided to give the tuning advisor a go, just as I had some spare time. I ran profiler against a database for about a half hour, then used the resulting trace file as the input for the tuining advisor.. A lot of the sprocs called in the trace file cannot be executed again,as they will cause issues with data integrity and if someone tries to execute them , an error is produced detailing primary key violations. the error tuning advisor actually shows is this:
"51% of consumed workload had syntax errors. Check tuning log for more information".
My question is though:
1. For tuning advisor to be effective, does the code/trace its analysing have to be valid, or will the now invalid data in my trace file work?
2. Does the tuining advisor actually run the sql against the database, effectively performing changes to data, or just run an execution plan of the query?
3. is the error i recieve expected or something im doing wrong?
Thanks all for any answers.
Regarding Database Tuning Advisor
Mar 27, 2007Hi guys, I am new to use Database Tuning Advisor. Right now I just save a workload as a sql and runs it in Database Tuning Advisor. The script that I wrote is kinda simple ( Select EID,EName,EDescription From Events Where EID = 300) . However, after I finish analyzed it, there's nothing to display on the recommendations session. Is it suppose got any details in it ? Or does it mean I no need to tune my query performance ? Hope someone can help me out here. Thx guys.
Best Regards,
Hans
Auto Tuning Advisor
Nov 29, 2007Hi.
We are using the possibility to analyse the output of profiler with tuning advisor and apply recommendations.
Is it possible to do it automatically?
For example: While a new application and its database has been released and the staging cycle the profiler runs all time and save the output automatically to an xml file and at the end of a month (run as a job) the tuning advisor gets the file, analyse it and apply the recommendations.
Recapitulatory, I need to know how to realize:
- auto save the profiler output
- auto analyse the profiler output and apply by tuning advisor
Thanks a lot.

Database Engine Tuning Advisor
Sep 7, 2007Hi experts! I would like to ask for some help regarding Database Engine Tuning Advisor. I was trying to create Session Monitor then I choose TABLE as a workload. Then after creating and selecting the corresponding setup then I start the analysis, during the analysis it prompted an error?
Error MSG:
The specified workload(file or table) has no tunable events. Events must be one of the following types - SQL:BatchStarting, SQL:BatchCompleted, RPC:Starting, RPC:Completed, SP:StmtStarting or SP:StmtCompleted for workload trace file or table.
But if I tried to use the Workload FILE instead of the table the session is successful and completed the analysis. My SQL current setup is client only, I was just accessing the server. Pls help me how to fix or do I need to configure something? Badly needed your help experts. Thanks in advance.

The Best Way To Use The Database Engine Tuning Advisor
Oct 1, 2007Hello all,I want to use the SQL Server 2005 Tuning Advisor on our database, andI'm hoping someone here can just confirm the steps for me. We have a10GB database that has a number of applications hitting it constantly,all performing many SELECTs, INSERTs and UPDATEs. Are the followingthe steps I need to take?1. Stop all the applications hitting the database.2. Make a backup of the database.3. Start the profiler on the original database.4. Turn on all the applications again.5. Wait for a time before turning off the profiler and saving theprofile.6. Run the tuning wizard against the backup database using the savedprofile.Do I have to do this every time or am I missing something obvious? I'munder the impression I need the backup because our database has a highvolume of INSERTs and UPDATEs so I have to make sure the state of thedatabase matches the state of the profile.As a matter of interest, why is it not possible for the tuning wizardto analyse the database using the *current* activity? Why does it haveto be a 'pre-recorded' workload?Many thanks,Tommy.

May 27, 2007Okay, so i'll just let you know right now, that i suck at making quries
i'm testing out a 2k5 eval copy of Sql Server (if i like, i'll migrate from 2k)
i have a db of almost 4 million names, with no indexes, and i'm trying to have
Sql tune a procedure that i wrote to see what it recommends for adjustments.
but for some reason it comes up with no results. any ideas why?
--Update
just noticed that if i type in the full query (not in the procedure form)
it recommends some indexes for me. is there any why to get recommendations
though the stored procedure below? i have about 112 quries that i want
to analyse, i could change them to actual quries if i had to, but it'd
take awhile

Nov 29, 2007I was trying to get some indexing recommendations from the Database Engine Tuning Advisor by consuming a trace file with known indexing issues. After several minutes all it did was create a report or two which list existing indexes. Not very useful. I must be doing something wrong.
A message displays that "75% of the consumed workload has syntax errors." I guess it can't take a regular trace (.trc) file?
I am conderned that the trace file I used did not contain what the Advisor needs. Do I need to setup the trace a special way to support the Advisor?
Also, what does "Database for workload analysis" mean? I chose tempdb but there is no Help, and BOL is a maze of small uninformative snippets . . .
Thanks,

Database Engine Tuning Advisor Error
Jul 3, 2006I have a very irritating error with Database Engine Tuning Advisor. While processing traces from Sql Profiler I keep getting trace log full of syntax error of most of queries - some of them very simple and ALL of them perfectly correct ( I check them separatly in QueryAnaliser ) - program gives recomendtation when I enter queries one by one - in that case the syntax is correct for Database Engine Tuning Advisor, but I just can't imagine why quries given to analysis in the set aren't correct? I dont' want to enter trace query by query (while I have thousends of them) !
It all seem like a Database Engine Tuning Advisor bug, any ideas about this problem?

Provider Error On Using Database Tuning Advisor Remotely
Dec 5, 2007Hi,
I am experiencing a Named Pipes Provider error 40 message as detailed below. I get this when I'm running the dta utility on a production server which is trying to remote onto a test server to use the metadata and optimizer there.
The error reported is...
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
(note: there is no (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: xxx) reported at the end of the error string)
The error results from the following cmdline syntax run from the production server.
dta -A 0 -E -e C:TuningLog.xml -F -ix C:DTA.xml -N OFF -of C:outputdta.sql -rl ALL -s DTA_20071205
Prod box: 64bit SQL2005 SP2 Std Ed Named instance, TCPIP and Named Pipes enabled, SQL Browser service running.
Test box: 32bit SQL2005 SP2 Std Ed Default instance, Listening for local and remote connections on TCPIP and Named Pipes (configured through the SAC), SQL Browser service running. From the SQL Log on the test box I can see TCPIP is listening & Named pipes is listening on \.pipesqlquery
There is no firewall configured on either box.
I can connect to the test server from the prod box using sqlcmd -E -S<servername>
I can ping the test server from the prod box
Would you have any idea what I'm doing incorrectly? The genericity of the error message doesn't give me much of a clue and the resolutions I've read all revolve around SQLBrowser, surface area config, and SQL Express which I've covered off.
many thanks

Database Engine Tuning Advisor - E000 SqlServer Errors
Nov 22, 2007Does anyone know how to DTA to correctly read the output from the Profiler?
I get the error:
TITLE: DTAEngine
------------------------------
50% of consumed workload has syntax errors. Check tuning log for more information.
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
And the log is full of lines like:
E000 SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Pictures WHERE AdRecId = 16329 2 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Invalid object name 'Pictures'.
E000 exec GetAd @RecId=15282 8 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'GetAd'.
E000 exec GetAd @RecId=15385 4 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]SHOWPLAN permission denied in database 'xxx'.
Does anyone know what causes this?
I do have showplan permission on the login I use for tuning.
Database Engine Tuning Advisor Gives Non Existent Errors In SQL 2005
Aug 14, 2006Hello,
I am sure you have heard of Community server - if not you are just using it ;)
I decided to try to optimise the performance of my site, run a trace and then DETA.
And I am getting errors like these:
E000 exec dbo.cs_user_Get @UserName=N'jded',@UserID=0,@IsOnline=0,@LastAction=N'',@SettingsID=1000 122 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.cs_user_Get'.
exec dbo.cs_thread_IsTracked @ThreadID=5969,@UserID=28236,@SettingsID=1000,@IsTracked=@p4 output
select @p4 1 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.cs_thread_IsTracked'.
E000 declare @p4 bit
set @p4=0
exec dbo.cs_thread_IsTracked @ThreadID=414,@UserID=1001,@SettingsID=1000,@IsTracked=@p4 output
select @p4 1 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.cs_thread_IsTracked'.
E000 exec dbo.cs_Section_GetSectionIDByPostID @SettingsID=1000,@PostID=44641 1 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.cs_Section_GetSectionIDByPostID'.
The "trouble" is that those sprocs do exist and that the site apparently is working fine. But not for DETA. As far as DETA is concerned... 54% of my processing power is used to serve syntax errors!
A couple of hints.
The database was an upgrade from 2000.:
- I changed the compatibility level to 2005 but no luck there. I tried with a brand new database, and the errors keep cropping up.
B. The errors were observed in a kit that comprises of a 32bit IIS and 64bit SQL2005 and thought that it had to do with the connectivity of those two.
- I run the traces in one (32bit) server that hosts both IIS and SQL and I am getting the same errors.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Tuning Advisor: &"Could Not Find Stored Procedure&"
Dec 13, 2007I'm running Database Engine Tuning Advisor over a huge workload table, and getting many errors like the following:
quote:E000
declare @p19 int
set @p19=228
exec MySProc @Cod='T12',@Nro=default,@IdM=727,@Rec=@p19 output
select @p19
1
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'MySProc'.
MySProc exists in the database to tune, and I'm not sure if every record that references that SP fails or it is random, because once it also logged S001 messages for the declare, set and select lines of the same call with other parameters.
What's going on?
BTW, I uploaded my trace (http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=93801) to another 2K5 server where I also restored a backup of the traced database taken a couple of days later. It's strange that DETA requires that the database to tune and the database where the workload table resides must be on the same server!!!
Oh, DETA is still running after 23 hours of analisys
Thanks in advance.

Tuning An UPDATE Statement On A Large Data Set?
May 26, 2004I'm updating the name data in a large user database with the following UPDATE statement. The staging table was bulk loaded from a flat file and contains 10 million records. The production table (Recipients) contains 15 million records. This worked correctly but this single update statement took an entire ten hours to run which is way too long. While it was running the server was clearly 100% disk bound. CPU activity was near nothing. We've just upgraded RAM from 1GB to 2GB but we expect data sizes to grow significantly and we can't keep adding RAM. Absolutely nothing else is running on this server. Any ideas how I can optimize this?
UPDATE Recipients
SET [First] = Stages.[First]
, [Last] = Stages.[Last]
FROM
Stages
INNER JOIN Recipients ON
(Stages.UserName = Recipients.UserName
AND Stages.DomainID = Recipients.DomainID)
WHERE
(CASE WHEN Stages.[First] IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
+ CASE WHEN Stages.[Last] IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
<=
(CASE WHEN Recipients.[First] IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
+ CASE WHEN Recipients.[Last] IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
Text execution plan. I've made small annotations with the % information from the graphical execution plan:
|--Clustered Index Update(OBJECT:([Recipients].[dbo].[Recipients].[PK_Recipients]), SET:([Recipients].[First]=[Stages].[First], [Recipients].[Last]=[Stages].[Last]))
|--Top(ROWCOUNT est 0)
|--Sort(DISTINCT ORDER BY:([Bmk1000] ASC))
14% |--Merge Join(Inner Join, MANY-TO-MANY MERGE:([Stages].[DomainID], [Stages].[UserName])=([Recipients].[DomainID], [Recipients].[UserName]), RESIDUAL:(([Recipients].[UserName]=[Stages].[UserName] AND [Recipients].[DomainID]=[Stages].[Domain
25% |--Clustered Index Scan(OBJECT:([Recipients].[dbo].[Stages].[IX_Stages]), ORDERED FORWARD)
61% |--Clustered Index Scan(OBJECT:([Recipients].[dbo].[Recipients].[PK_Recipients]), ORDERED FORWARD)
Everything I've heard on the subject suggests you change the index scans to index seeks. How do I do this?
Any other tuning advice is greatly appreciated.
Here are the exact statements I used to create the tables:
CREATE TABLE Recipients (
ID INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
UserName VARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
DomainID INT NOT NULL,
First VARCHAR (24) NULL,
Last VARCHAR (24) NULL,
StreetAddress VARCHAR (32) NULL,
City VARCHAR (24) NULL,
State VARCHAR (16) NULL,
Postal VARCHAR (10) NULL,
SourceID INT NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_Recipients PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (DomainID, UserName)
)
CREATE TABLE Stages (
ID INT NULL,
UserName VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
DomainID INT NULL,
Domain VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
First VARCHAR(24) NULL,
Last VARCHAR(24) NULL,
StreetAddress VARCHAR(32) NULL,
City VARCHAR(24) NULL,
State VARCHAR(24) NULL,
Postal VARCHAR(10) NULL
)
CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX IX_Stages ON Stages (DomainID, UserName)
Loading Data Warehouse (Perf. Tuning)
Feb 25, 2008
Hi all,
I'm loading my data warehouse using several SCDs. Some of these SCDs need to occur in sequence, while others can be run at the same time. I'm wondering what the best option for me is in terms of performance. Here is what I was considering:
1) Create a single package. Create two sequence containers --- one that will contain SCD loads that occur in sequence; the other sequence container contains SCD loads that occur in parallel.
OR
2) Create a set of packages for each SCD load. Then create a "Master" package that will use "Execute Package Task" components to call these packages.
The othe reason I want to bring up these difference ways to design an DW Load is because the second option is a "cleaner" approach, or a more organizational approach, to the load. The first option can get quite messy and large if you have several SCDs and several sequence containers. However, I'm looking for the fastest performance. Any thoughts?
Flat File-connection: Tuning Of The Data Types
May 25, 2007Hello everybody.
I have a problem with "Flat file"-connection, which I cannot understand at the present. Here is the issue: I've got an ASCII-file containing 233898 lines. I try to read this file in two different packages using two different connections. In the first connection I used default data type - DT_STR of length 50, in the second one I used "Propose types..." feature (with 2000 samples) to detect types which are better matching the reality. And, when I try to load my data, the first connection reads exactly 233898 lines from the file, the second one 203898. Somehow it skips 30000 lines unloaded.
I tried to observe the error output for the second connection - everything goes smoothly and problemless. But somehow those 30000 lines are missed.
Has anybody experienced such a situation? Is the issue known?
Thanks in advance,
A.G.

Error On Upgrade Advisor
Jun 8, 2006Hi there,
I tried to run Upgrade Advisor on two SQL 2000 servers, but the wizard keeps failing when it reaches 22% while analyzing the Database Engine.
I downloaded the latest version, but still receive the same error...
Error: "SQL BPA command line has encountered a problem and needs to close"
Both servers are Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition SP1 with SQL 2000 Enterprise Edition SP4.
Does anyone have an idea what I can do to fix this problem.
Thanks!!
Upgrade Advisor Issue
Oct 12, 2007Hi,
I have a SQL server 2000 in development. it is running as an instance (servernameinstancename) with a TCP port configured. I can not connect to this server thru upgrade advisor wizard as well as by using command line utility. Can some help me understand how can I connect to sql server 2000 name instance and run upgrade advisor on it.
Here are the steps I have taken:
created config.xml as below:
<Configuration>
<Server>servername</Server>
<Instance>D15</Instance>
<Components>
<SQLServer>
<Databases>
<Database>Testdb</Database>
</Databases>
</SQLServer>
</Components>
</Configuration>
It does not allow me to put port number and can not connect to server.
I get following error:
Unable to connect to server. Reason: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
But it is not a sql server 2005 system and I can connect to this server via SSMS or SQL EM.
Thanks

Can't Connect With Upgrade Advisor
Sep 13, 2006I'm having trouble connecting the Upgrade Advisor to a SQL 2000 box at a client. Here's the setup:
1> I'm running UA on a Virtual PC image
2> I can run UA against other SQL machines on the same domain
3> I can register and administer the SQL server I'm having trouble with in Enterprise Manager
4> I have SA rights on the SQL box I'm having trouble with.
5> The problem is when entering the server name and clicking "detect," it errors out with "The network path not found (mscorlib)."
6> I've tried server name, FQDN and IP address.
This is a fairly convoluted layout, so there could be a firewall issue that I'm not aware of (but I don't think so).
Any help would be appreciated!

SS2005 Upgrade Advisor
May 29, 2008I'm trying to migrate/upgrade some databases from 2000 to 2005 and am having a problem. Apparently, the Upgrade Advisor can't analyze a SS2000 database if it is in a named instance. (see below)
This problem occurs because the SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor cannot connect to the named instance of SQL Server 2000.
The SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor uses information that the SQL Server Browser service returns when the SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor tries to connect to an instance of SQL Server 2000. However, the SQL Server Browser service cannot return the correct information about the connection request. Therefore, the connection fails.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908454
Doesn't this make the UA tool useless for named instances on SS2000? Are there any plans to correct this issue? Or, is there a workaround available?

Upgrade Advisor Report
May 20, 2008I ran Upgrade Advisor on a SQL 2000 server and I received warnings and errors for DTS packages and MetaData Services. Since there are no DTS packages and I don't see anything when I click on Meta Data Services Package, but I get an error when I click on Meta Data...
"An error occurred while trying to access the database information. The msdb database could not be opened."
Why is this error occurring when there are no DTS packages?
SQL 2005 Migration Advisor
Nov 16, 2007
Not that I am expecting anything to be done about this, but why did MS make the SQL 2005 Upgrade Advisor so unfriendly and slow for people that are doing a simple migration? Our organization is migrating everything from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 one database at a time, and I have the responsibility of running the advisor and checking if there are any MIGRATION ISSUES. We are not concerned with the DTS Packages at this time, because we are doing a side-by-side migration. I do not need the Advisor to check the DTS packages (and even though I tell the Advisor not to, it still does), nor do I need it to check the SQL Server for Upgrade Issues every time I need to check a different database. The worst problem is that I cannot save the reports in a custom location for each database and strip out the useless information that I do not require.
Why can't we get a MIGRATION WIZARD that ONLY checks the Database for problems when doing a side-by-side migration? This would probably save me 1-3 minutes per database and we have about well over the 400 mark with production databases.
Thanks for any answers you can provide. Thanks!!

Upgrade Advisor Issue Not Clear
Jun 15, 2006I'm testing the upgrade from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005 and
first of all I ran the Upgrade Advisor.
I received one issue that I cannot understand. The desctiption is:
Unexpected szVal value from parser - expected sp:name but received
sp:args-
There is also indicated FTCATALOGNAMERESTRICTION and I suppose this is
the "affected object" even if I cannot find it to the DB!
Do you have any hint for me?
There is really few documentation on the net about using the Upgrade
Advisor.

Upgrade Advisor Error I Don't Understand
Jan 11, 2007I'm carrying out an investigation into how much effort will be involved in upgrading our database from SQL Server 7.0 to SQL Server 2005. I've downloaded the Upgrade Advisor and run in against a copy of our production database. Most of the issues are trivial and I understand how to resolve them apart form one (to me) meaningless one:
When to Fix : Before
Description : Class Not Registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))
Details : SVCACCTREQ
That's all the information it gives, except for a "This issue is resolved" checkbox. Anyone got any idea what the problem is, or how I go about tracking down the cause?
I'm running the analysis tool from a W2K Professional Client, connecting to SQL Server 7.0 running on an NT4 Server using Windows authentication. The account I'm connecting with is a member of the System Administrator group in SQL Server and is a local admin on the client, and a member of the Users group on the server.
Any pointers appreciated.
Cheers,
Bill
