Database Change Tracking Software
Jul 20, 2005Does anyone know of software that tracks changes to a database? For
example, it would track anytime an SP or view was recompiled, or if
you added or deleted a column to a database?

Jul 20, 2005Has anyone come across a change tracking tool for SQL Server. Specificallythe scenario I want is the following :A Production DB needs some modifications to its content.This tool will copy the DB to a dev environment.The Dev environment will be 2 copies of the DB, 1 as a control set and theother the change DB.The developer makes their changes in the Change DB. They test them out andthen when they decide the changes are ready to pushto production they hitthe "go" button on the tool.The tool calculates the delta between the Control and the Change DB and thenpushes the changes to producitonAny ideasThankss
View 2 Replies View RelatedTracking Change History, By Column...
Jun 17, 2004This one is giving me quite a bit more difficulty then I ever imagined it would...
Essentially I would like to use one table to store the change history for multiple tables. I would like to use an update trigger to check which fields have changed in each record, and write a single record for each field that changed containing the table name, field name, previous value and new value to a history table.
I can't seem to find a good way to do this.

Jun 8, 2015best way to track changes for a very pesky table.We pull down a table from an Oracle database (via linked server) into our SQL Server on a daily basis. The data in this table is just truncated and reloaded daily. There is no "history" kept in the oracle database and values are not being "updated" its just dropped and repopulated.
So, I have toyed around with CDC and even creating my own custom auditing method but I can't come up with a reasonable solution that doesn't involve a massive audit table that doesn't provide much useful info.
For example, there are two date fields in the table that my customer wishes to have history tracked for. Every day, this table is truncated and reloaded - however those dates may stay the same for many many many months. If I turn on CDC, I will get tons of audit records for a delete and an insert every day but the values for the two date fields may not have even changed.
The table has tons of fields in it but I only care about the 2 date fields for history purposes.Here is a snippet of the table (I took out all the additional fields in the table and just left the two date fields that need to be tracked):
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Fake_Name](
[lin] [char](6) NOT NULL,
[boip_no] [char](6) NOT NULL,
[dt_tc] [varchar](25) NULL,
[Code] .....
method to track changes to this table with it being truncated every day?
DB Engine :: Risk Of Enabling Change Tracking
Oct 6, 2015We are developing an application that requires change tracking.We tested it in development and test environments and we are preparing our production deployment.The very first thing that needs to be done is an
ALTER
DATABASE [db_name] SET
CHANGE_TRACKING =
ON (CHANGE_RETENTION
= 2 DAYS,
AUTO_CLEANUP =
ON)
We are holding on this first step because this statement alone executed for a good 4min on the development server. The production environment is many times larger and busier, and we can’t afford service disruption, so we are at the point where we need to understand what’s involved in running this ALTER DATABASE statement.Is there any documentation on what is happening behind the scene when this statement executes such that we can assess the risks of running it in production?

Tracking Changes To A SQL Server Database During Development
Apr 24, 2008I am running both SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005.
Lets say I have a live database that is version 1 for an application. The database is copied onto a development machine to develop version 2 of the application. I want to be able to take a snapshot of the database and then get a program to write all the changes made after the snapshot into sql code. This is so I can run this sql code on the live database and transform version 1 to version 2.
Is there any program/tool that will allow me to do this?

Change In Database User Perms When Copying Database
Mar 9, 2000How to maintain Database User Permissions when copying the Database from One SQL Server to another(Either through backups or sp_detach). The reason is the login sid is different in the target server and as a result the database user is not able to map to the login existing in the target server. The only way I can correct this is through dropping and recreating the user's again and assign the permissions, or change the system catalog - sysusers to remap the login to the user in the database.
I do not wish to use the sp_addalias as it is available only for backward compatibility.
Is there a better way of doing this ?

Change The In Use Database
Mar 26, 2007In SMSS or QA why the following code does not change the database in use to My_db? The value for @DynSQL is USE [My_db].
USE [master]
GO
DECLARE @db_name varchar(100), @DynSQL varchar(512)
SET @db_name = 'My_db'
SET @DynSQL = 'USE [' + @db_name + ']'
Print @DynSQL
EXEC (@DynSQL)
GO
It seems the change occurs inside the dynamic portion because if I SELECT a table within that database, it works. For example the following works but it does not change the default database to My_db.
SET @DynSQL = 'USE [' + @db_name + ']'+' SELECT * FROM Mytable'

Tracking Who Is Doing What?
Aug 9, 2006We are building an inventory management system complete with BOM. It is important to track what employee is updating what tables. Currently all such tables have a Date field that is updated when a change is made, and an EmployeeID field which records the employee making the change. I am wondering if someone knows of a better way to track this information. Any suggestions?

Database Owner Change
Jun 27, 2007Hello,I'm using tableadapters in VWD 2005 Express to link our ASP.NET application to a SQL Server 2000 database. Initially, I used Database Explorer to drop tables into the DataSet object, which picks up the owner of the tables from the database.Recently, we had to change the owner of all objects in the database, including tables and stored procedures. When we run our application it chokes on stored procedures because the owner of the SP's has changed. My question is: how can I update tables and tableadapters in the DataSet to reflect the change in owner, without having to recreate everything in DataSet?
