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
What are the differences between the database permissions, which can be granted in the database properties permissions tab (create table, create procedure etc.) and the predefined role db_ddladmin? It seems that the database properties permissions tab includes more permissions than the predefined role db_ddladmin.
Does anybody know the difference in terms of permission?
I 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 ?
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?
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...
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'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.

If I set the following three properties when creating a database, do I need to set the same properties when I open the same database later?
sscedbprop[0].dwPropertyID = DBPROP_SSCE_AUTO_SHRINK_THRESHOLD;
sscedbprop[0].dwOptions = DBPROPOPTIONS_REQUIRED;
sscedbprop[0].vValue.vt = VT_I4;
sscedbprop[0].vValue.intVal = 100;
sscedbprop[1].dwPropertyID = DBPROP_SSCE_MAX_DATABASE_SIZE;
sscedbprop[1].dwOptions = DBPROPOPTIONS_REQUIRED;
sscedbprop[1].vValue.vt = VT_I4;
sscedbprop[1].vValue.intVal = 4091;
sscedbprop[2].dwPropertyID = DBPROP_SSCE_ENCRYPTDATABASE;
sscedbprop[2].dwOptions = DBPROPOPTIONS_REQUIRED;
sscedbprop[2].vValue.vt = VT_BOOL;
sscedbprop[2].vValue.boolVal = (a_bEncrypted==TRUE)?VARIANT_TRUE:VARIANT_FALSE;
Thanks!
BTW, why is the max size not 4096?
Due to a network time skew some time ago, all of the databases on an SQL system now have the following information stamped on them..
Within Enterprise Manager (SQL 2000), The "Last Database Backup" timestamp for each database is showing the year 2025.
Our backup system runs incrementally daily and a weekly full. Unfortunately, the timestamp does not seem to be updating as the year is as I guess in the future.
Can anyone advise of a procedure so as I can wipe this time skew date from each of the databases?
Many thanks folks!
I am trying to generate a report from the database. I am using Visio 2010. I would like to include the table names, column names , column types and the comments that I entered in the NOTES field associated with the tables and columns. Basically, I would like to generate a data dictionary report.

When I select the database and right click. I receive the following error:

I am using SQL server 2005.
I'm wondering if there is some sql I can run to check properties on a table. This would be used to verify things like data types, allow nulls and default values have been set to avoid mistakes. This could be done manually one table and one column at a time, but it would be a lot easier to look at it in the results window.

Hi all,
I'm using VS2005 + SQL Compact 3.1 and Enterprise Library 3.1 May 2007
I can successfully create a db using pull method, when I try to push back data I got the following SQLCE error:
"Another user has opened the database with different instance-level initialization properties. [ 32 ]"
Before calling the push method I did
SqlCeDatabase eCE = Helper.GetDB() as SqlCeDatabase;
eCE.CloseSharedConnection();
SqlCeConnectionPool.CloseSharedConnections();
SqlCeRemoteDataAccess rda = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess();
rda.InternetUrl = webSynchronizationUrl;
rda.InternetLogin = webuser;
rda.InternetPassword = webpass;
rda.LocalConnectionString = eCE.ConnectionStringWithoutCredentials;
but after the assignment the LocalConnectionString is different from ConnectionStringWithoutCredentials, there are much more ssce parameters.
What I don't understand is:
why I'm getting this error even after closing the connection ?
Since the error report [32] the ssce conflicting parameters shoud be AUTO_SHRINK_THRESHOLD, FLUSH_INTERVAL and MAX_DATABASE_SIZE
I tried to cut & paste the same values from LocalConnectionString into app.config connection string, at first It seemed to work, but now I got the same error.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Hi and thanks for your help
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

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:

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

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:
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.

Hi,
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
