I encounter one weird problem, I have a database with around 7 GB ...
when I delete a bunch of data from it, it suppose to reduce the
database file size, but weirdly, the file size increase to 8 GB.
Wondering why. Is it suppose to be like that?
Is it the architecture is designed to work like that?
Is there any way for me to reduce the database file size?
Thanks.

Need to confirm if we can add space(increase data file size) for the database which is configured for always on similar to that of mirroring or we need to follow any different procedure.
I have a requirement wherein the datafiles on both the primary and secondary replica got full, if i add space to the primary database will it automatically get added to the secondary replica or not?
I need to increase the file size for a mirrored database. I am new to using mirroring for replication. Will increasing the file size break the mirror?

hi,
I have one DB in SQL Server 2005.When I was creating it
takes 7813 MB.Now the databse size almost full.Now I want to extend the
DB Size.At my HDD has more space(near by 160 GB).But I don't know how to
extend the Size.More over I had one doubt.Am executing the
exec sp_helpdb command.It shows the Datafile maxsize is Unlimited.I want to
know when the data is full,whether it automatically takes the size from the
HDD or not.
Please Help me out to this Problem.
Hi all,
I encountered error 1105 (Can`t allocate space for object .....) while running a query.
I had dump transaction with no log sucessfully and retry running my query but
still encounter error 1105.
I had checked my database size and following are the info:
Datasize : 2500MB Database size available : 753.39
Log space : 500MB Log space available : 500MB (this was acheive after
after dump trans. twice. it was around 480MB before)
Thus looks like the data segment is full!!!
I expanded the size of the disk device D on which the segment device A is on by 50MB. When I did a sp_helpdevice D, the expansion is reflected.
Next I run sp_extendsegement, A, D.
However running sp_helpsegment A doesn`t show that segment A is expanded.
Please help!!! How do I expand the size of the segment? (without creating a new disk device, is it possible)
Any other way to resolve this problem?
Also how to check if a particular segment is full? eg. the %usage of data/log segment.
Thanks in advance.
I seem to remember that the font size and type can be controlled in SQL Server 6.5 and the process controlls the fonts displayed
throughout the program - Enterprise Manager, Query Tool, etc.
I have just re-installed 6.5 and the fonts are way too small.
Can anyone tell me how this is done?
Thanks.

Hi,
How can I increase the transaction log size of my sql server 2005 database? i can execute the shrink and backup log which can shrink the .ldf file to 1MB. However, since my dts involves a lot of inserts and updates, the my transaction log grows to 700MB in the middle of my dts execution. How can i increase the transaction log size maximum capacity to probably 1.5GB just so it can accommodate my full dts execution?
BTW, this is my commands to shrink the log file:
DBCC SHRINKFILE(<dbname>_log, 1)
BACKUP LOG <dbname> WITH NO_LOG
DBCC SHRINKFILE(<dbname>_log, 1)

A few months ago a customer moved from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. The db wasbacked up on SQL 2000 and restored to SQL 2005. The application using thisdata works on SQL 2005 but takes no advantage of new features. The db onSQL 2000 was about 2.9GB, now on SQL 2005, it is 16.5GB. The db is set toSimple recovery so trx log is only 2mb. The mdf file is 16.5GB, ManagementStudio shows only 5mb free space. There has not been a huge increase intransactions.One of the largest tables has only added 2,000 rows since the move to SQL2005. Yet the data and index size has jumped from about 400mb to 3.5 GB. Iused the 'BigTables.sql' script found at various SQL sites:www.databasejournal.com/img/BigTables.sqlAny ideas why such a large increase?Thanks

No transaction log involved, only the table itself.
Use sp_spaceused "table_name" to check the space used.
It seems the table size actually increased from the beginning to the middle of deletion, at the end of deletion, its size decreased.
Recovery mode set to be simple, autoshrink turned on.
The tables tested are about 50MB ~ several GB in size, all have the same behavior. The size increased about 5%~10%.
Since the deletion is called from another software, I want to know if it is possible for SQL Server to have this behavior or it is absolutely the 3rd party software's issue
Thanks!
I save Table size and recs. no every day. and check it some days.
...
insert into @t
exec sp_msforeachtable 'exec sp_spaceused ''?'''
...
But Today I saw sudden increase size in a table. about 128 MB in a day. (Average Growth fro this table was 4 or 5 MB in a day)This growth was for Only 4222 Records. While for more number of records (about 7000) in yesterday we had only 2 MB GRowth!
This Table information (Now):
sp_spaceused 'Table1'
Result:
name ---Rows --reserved --data
Table1--1021319--460328 KB --283104 KBI Try to gess The reason. I copy These new records to another table.But The result was more strange : on new table the size of these record was : < 1 MB I copied All records to another table . The size was : 148 MB (while this is 283 MB in my real database)
Where we have increase the size of the calculated column in cube..whether in attribute  or some where else...

SQLSERVER 2005 keeps throwing assertation error and generating crashdumps.
I want to isolate the cause, however, the query is too long (>2kb) to fit in a crash log.
Is it possible to increase the size allocated to showing the query in the crash dump, or get the full text of that query causing the crash?

I had several databases under sqlserver ce 2.0 (in my Pocket PC) which contained ntext fields. The size of the databases varies from 50,000 to 700,000 records. The size of an ntext field is from 4 bytes to 2 megabytes.
When I recreated my databases under sql server 2005 mobile on my desktop using VS2005 (see my post just under this one), I saw a big difference between the old and new database sizes. This problem was mentioned in one of the posts in this forum and the reply was to replace ntext data with ncharvar type.
Since most of my data was longer than 4000 bytes (which is the limit for nvarchar type), I couldn't use this suggestion. Instead, I changed my ntext type to image type and used a GetByte conversion.
No change! The size of the new database is still 50 % larger than the original. Since the difference is around 300 MB, this is an unacceptable thing.
Now, I either wait from somebody to suggest a new solution (apart from keeping the ntext data in a separate binary file and keep index of the records of this file in the records of sql database) or, most preferably, have
Microsoft solve this problem as soon as possible.
Thanks for any help in advance

I need to store totalsize,usedsize,freesize of the datafiles in a table to get an average of how much my datafile has increased over a week.
The above query i am using is for logfile size. Can any one help me with datafile size plz.
I've checked sp_helpfile, sysfiles but couldn't find what i am lookin for(used and free space). EM in taskpad view for a database shows the statistics for the datafile. I've tried a trace to find out a stored procedure but couldn't!!!
May be i am unaware of a simple stored-procedure that can do this for me.
Howdy!
