There's a sql server 2000 database that was created as a copy of another db, let's say db1 and copy_of_db1. db1 has been updated (structure and data) since copy_of_db1 was created, while copy_of_db1 has remained static. I now need to update copy_of_db1 to be in sync with db1 and use copy_of_db1 so I can drop db1. What would be the fastest and most efficient way to update copy_of_db1 to mirror the current db1?
View 2 RepliesI have been tasked with designing an automated process to restore production data to our testing environments on an as needed basis. The schedule would revolve around our software testing and deployment schedules. I'm looking for suggestions on best practices for this task in the form of advise / links to references / etc.. Instead of presenting all of my requirements here, I'll spare you that information :). Since part of it also needs to encompass data stored in Oracle (10g). I've done a several Google searches but would like to validate / invalidate my research against the advise of the experts here.

I have restored a database on our development system to shrink down the file size being used. Originally, the database parameters show "Size=43000 MB" and Space Available = "31000 MB".
All of the files, including the LDF file, now take up a total of 8 GB of disk space, but when I look at the database properties it still shows "43000 MB" and "31000 MB".
Is there a way I can refresh this to show the actual size?
Thanks,

I currently have a test sql server database and I am trying to refresh it with the production sql server data - to get the production current data.
If I copy the production database.mdf file and the database.ldf file from the from the production server and replace it with the test database database.mdf file and database.ldf files and then restart the database, would this give me the production current data, please advise. - If not could you please advise on how I could get the productions current database.
Many thanks for your help.
I have a need to refresh a report after applying a filter on the data that is displayed, without accessing the database.
The following example is a simplified version of the functionality I'm trying to accomplish. The first report displays Sales & Projection data for all products. On clicking a particular product in the header, the second report displays just that product and the total metrics. I have created an rdl file for both the reports and based on the parameters passed, it displays one or several products. My concern is that the report is having to access the AS cube every time a product is clicked. In the real report, it's taking minutes to get the data. Is there way I can get the report to refresh to apply the filter without accessing the database again? Thanks in advance...

Hi All,
Is it possible to refresh the web page when certain table data is updated? And I cannot use the auto-refresh feature. Thank you very much.
Hi
Can we use BCP AND/OR BULK INSERT to do development server databse refresh from production server . I have to do this by following the rules below:
- no truncation of source table
- update of changed or new records only.
I know we can use replication, dts and other methods for this but I need information about this one.
Thanks
I'm new to using SSIS and have been reading and learning slowly how to use it. I'm trying to create an identical copy of our database for reporting. I've used the Import/Export wizard, but have had some issues with foreign keys and with sql_variant columns.
I've tried searching for anything but haven't had any luck as of yet. I guess I don't even know where to start or what to look for.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I am currently refreshing the Reporting Server Database from Production database(size 200mb) every night by using backup and restore as follows:
Restore Database ProjectDB from disk = 'D:MSSQLBACKUPRptBakProjectDB.bak'
with move 'ProjectDB_log' to 'd:MssqlDataProjectDB.ldf',
move 'ProjectDB_data' to 'd:MssqlDataProjectDB.mdf'
I usually take Transaction Log Backup from Production every hour everyday.
I am planning to apply the transaction log every hour on Distination Server Database (7am to 9pm). Is it right way of doing it?
I am confused whether to use WITH RECOVERY OR WITH NORECOVER while restoring a database.
I am getting errors(Msg 4306) when applying the log.
Can anyone help me how to apply incremental transaction log to the restored database(step by step)?
Appreciat your help.

I have an existing data warehouse that is refreshed nightly from system1.
We will be moving to a new system2 1/1/06.
The old system1 will be phased out by the end of 2006.
Several tables on system2 will have different keys.
I have to move the data from both systems in the data warehouse.
Here's the issue.
I have to totaly refresh the data warehouse nightly.
Once system2 is phased out how do I keep the data from system1
and refresh only data from system2.
HI,
I have a problem with the data that I want to delete and insert new one on my SQL.It will work if I just delete a row. And work well if I just insert a row.But it will not work if I delete and insert at once on one procedure.
Here's the code :
Protected Sub RolesRadioButtonList_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RolesRadioButtonList.SelectedIndexChanged Session("CurrentRoleId") = Me.RolesRadioButtonList.SelectedValue ' Call Sub RemoveUsersInRoles RemoveUsersInRoles() ' Call Sub AddNewUsersInRoles AddNewUsersInRoles() End Sub Sub RemoveUsersInRoles() ' Create SQL database connection Dim sqlConn As New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|ASPNETDB.MDF;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True") Dim cmd As New SqlCommand cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text ' Delete that row with correct UserId cmd.CommandText = "DELETE aspnet_UsersInRoles WHERE (UserId = '" & Session("CurrentUserId") & "')" cmd.Connection = sqlConn sqlConn.Open() cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() ' Close SQL connecton sqlConn.Close() End Sub Sub AddNewUsersInRoles() ' Create SQL database connection Dim sqlConn As New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|ASPNETDB.MDF;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True") sqlConn.Open() ' Create new row with new UserId Dim sqlString As String = "INSERT INTO aspnet_UsersInRoles (UserId, RoleId) VALUES( '" & Session("CurrentUserId") & "','" & Session("CurrentRoleId") & "')" Dim sqlComm As New SqlCommand(sqlString, sqlConn) Dim sqlExec As Integer = sqlComm.ExecuteNonQuery ' Close SQL connection sqlConn.Close() End Sub-------------------------------------------
I can delete the row if I call 'RemoveUsersInRoles'And I can insert new one if I call 'AddNewUsersInRoles'
But if 'RolesRadioButtonList_SelectedIndexChanged' is called, it will not work well.If the row not exist, it will insert new row. And that what I want.But If the row is exist, It wont delete that row and wont insert the new one. That's the problem.
Do I need some 'pause' or 'refresh connection' here ?
Thank You.
Our application is C++ and datbases are Sybase. We are 11.5.1 Sybase. Lately some of our clients have complained about data refresh problems. That if a user has made some changes within the application then these data changes are taking long time to reflect to other users in the system. We do have in our application processes to automatically refresh data for other users but for some odd reason it is not working properly. Also every day we run sp_recompile and sp_stat on the tables and stored procs. Any ideas or leads ?
Thanks

You know how I mentioned before that I was working with a database with a (bunch of) view(s) that are defined like this...
CREATE VIEW MyView AS
SELECT * FROM ExampleTable
Well, after altering the underlying table I noticed that the view is not picking up the new columns which leads me to believe I need to refresh the view.
Is this possible, if so, how?

Is there a way (command or stored procedure) to RECOMPILE or REFRESH a USER DEFINED FUNCTION? I can recompile SPs with sp_recompile and refresh views with sp_refreshView, but I could not find any way to refresh User-defined functions (some of them are like views, with parameters).
Environment: SQL 2005 SP2.

-We are using SSIS packages for various kind of data load from excel source.
-If there are any change in the data type or format of excel, the package cries for the Metadata mismatch.
-During design time if you accept the metadata changes, all things work fine.
But in our case we have deployed the packages on Production Server, now the excel file format/data has changed. The packages are expecting a different metadata so they are not working at all.
Do you have any suggestions for the above problem?
Thanks, Vijay.
HI,
I have attached logs for my packages which runs for every one hour.
so, by end of the day the size of the logs is getting more.
I would like to refresh the log for every day or for each time that the package runs.
How to get it done.
Could you please help in this.
Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
I have spent the last couple of hours searching previous posts to see if this problem has been address before, but I was unable to find anything.
My problem is this... I use a stored procedure to populate my report. The stored procedure has recently been modified, and while I can see these updated fields when I run it through the Data tab, the list of available fields in the Dataset sidebar does not reflect the changes.
I have tried refreshing the Report Datasets multiple times. I have tried deleting the *.rdl.data file. I have tried removing the dataset in question and re-adding it. I have tried creating a new project altogether. I've tried restarting, etc.
I recognize that I can go in and add/remove fields to/from the dataset to make it match, but this feels like a temporary fix (it resets every time I modify another of the report's dataset).
It definitely seems as if this is being cached somewhere, but where? And how can I reset this? I would appreciate any help or guidance on this, as my forehead is pretty sore from banging it against this brick wall.
Cheers!
Can i referesh a open table?
The scenario is that i have two windows open... one is the table and the other is the query that modifies the same table. I was wondering if there is a way to refresh the table so that after i modify the table i don't have to close it and reopen it to verify the changes.
cheers
Hi All,
I am new to development of asp. I have an SQLDataSource set as the data source for a grid view. When I click on the edit link in the Gridview, change the data, and click update, the old data is still displayed in the row.
I found exact same issue as here -- http://forums.asp.net/thread/1217014.aspx
Solution in the above thread is to add this
{ if (reader != null) reader.Close(); } conn.Close();
How do I apply above solution in my situation ?
I am updating through stored procedure.and don't have code at background. My code is
Datasource :
<asp:SqlDataSource

Dear sirs:I have a Web Form with an SqlDataSource with a simple select statement, and a GridView control that is tied to it. There is a ComboBox (which provides the filter-command parameter) and a Submit button as well. When a selection is made (the first time) in the combo box and then the submit button is clicked, the Selecting Event for the SqlDataSource fires and the code works perfect.However, on subsequent "submits" with the button and selecting a different month from the combo box, I cannot get that event to fire again. What do I need to do to get this event to fire everytime the submit button is clicked and a new selection made from the drop down combo box; thus letting me know that new data is being fetched from the database?Here is the code for the SqlDataSource:<<asp:SqlDataSourceID = "sqlDataSourceG5WingRailCar" runat = "server" ConnectionString = "<%$ ConnectionStrings:oracleConnectionString %>"ProviderName = "<%$ ConnectionStrings:oracleConnectionString.ProviderName %>" SelectCommand = "select distinct to_date( mh.historydatetime , 'DD-MM-YYYY' ) , rh.movedescription , ( mds.pct_util * count( rh.movedescription ) ) from requesthistory rh inner join movehistory mh on rh.itd_number = mh.itd_number inner join movedescription mds on rh.movedescr_id = mds.movedescr_id where rh.movedescr_id = 1 AND mh.discrepancy_id = 25 AND EXTRACT(MONTH FROM mh.historydatetime) = :MONTH_ID group by to_date( mh.historydatetime , 'DD-MM-YYYY' ) , rh.movedescription , mds.pct_util order by to_date( mh.historydatetime , 'DD-MM-YYYY' )" önSelecting="sqlDataSourceG5WingRailCar_Selecting" ><<SelectParameters>><<asp:ControlParameter ControlID = "dropDownListMonth" Name = "MONTH_ID" PropertyName = "SelectedValue" >><</asp:ControlParameter>><</SelectParameters>> <</asp:SqlDataSource>>There really is no code for the Selecting Event, other than just capturing some text into a label when the event occurs (for testing purposes).Thanks

Is there a way to update data on a MS Access 2000 client from SQL Server without polling a table using the form's onTimer event?
It would be much more elegant if I could push the data to the clients every 15-30 minutes when the data on SQL Server gets refreshed.
Can DTS do this? The forms I'm talking about are select only, no editing.
I know I can do this with java and multicasting, should work with MM Flash as well with listeners. I would really like to take this app to Flash, but we have a 1 month timeline to port from Access to SQL Server.
Thanks,

Hi Peepz! my problem is this i am managing more than 3 servers which has a many users. this servers have one common problem. the most users uses high cpu utilizations what make it worst is even if the process is already done for a long time (status = sleep) they still uses high cpu or IO utilization. One time i ask to confirm one user if they are really having that process and found out that the user have gone home already and no other is using thier computer. And assuming that we have more than 20 users with the same case it really make the server slow and occationally hangup. i try to kill these process/user but i think killing is not an option. Kindly help pls. are there any way to refresh connections or terminate it, how do you handle this situations?
Thanks,
Keez.

Hi Folks,
The Need : Refresh a part of local database daily from remote server.
Assumption : All updates in remote are updated in local db as well.
Need inputs on the type of strategy
1) Take full backup of remote, refresh on local
( Downside for us is Network and disk space )
2) DTS ( refresh only the objects required )
Looks good to us but does it take care of my assumption ?? Your suggestions welcome .. I may be wrong
3) replication ( Dont want it implement on the already complicated sceanrio ... so I'll pass)
4) Standy databases ( ??? Any help on this)
5) Any other
Thanks so much,
Warm Regards,
Ranjit.

Hi, all,
How do you refresh a SSIS pkg to get the latest table schema change?
I have this data flow task that will load data from a flat file into a table.
I got a Warning: Truncation may occur due to retrieving data from database column "txtSNumber" with a length of 50 to data flow column "txtSNumber" with a length of 20.
Then I went into Management Studio and changed the column size.
Now in my dev BID I got next:
[SQL Server 05[82]] Warning: The external metadata column collection is out of synchronization with the data source columns. The column "txt..." needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection.
I think this means my change on the table did not get into my ssis, and I could not find a way to refresh.
Thanks!
