I have an old DATABASE that is not more in use , so I want to drop that database.
But before that I want to check that is there any application running on it or not.
can any one suggest me how to do this?
thanks
For some reason, when I try to delete old DB connections from the connection manager, it causes compilation errors because it is not removing the references from the meta data. I get Object ID errors where it is still trying to find the connection after it has been deleted. I have tried going to the code behind and searching then deleting the invalid reference, but that still does not work. I have a connection for 2 totally different databases that are no longer being used in the SSIS package and I would like to get rid of them.
Suggestions?
There are too many indexes built on DB. As per the naming convention it seems the indexes are built as per the suggestions provided from execution plan. I presume most of the indexes are used only once in a month for the reports but are hampering the performance of daily running queries. These are also occupying a lot of space.
To confirm on this I have used the below query to know & identify the unused indexes. I have recorded the counters before and after the huge operations and I observed NO CHANGE in any of the values.
What the below values exactly indicate and when do they change? Is it good to delete the indexes having low USER_SEEKS, USER_SCANS, USER_LOOKUPS?
Query:
SELECT OBJECT_NAME(S.[OBJECT_ID]) AS [OBJECT NAME],
I.[NAME] AS [INDEX NAME],
USER_SEEKS,
USER_SCANS,
USER_LOOKUPS,
[Code] .....
We have transaction replication set up on one of our servers whose replicated DB is used for reporting purpose:
Now, the replicated database "D" of size 350 GB has mainly grown huge as compared to Published DB (200 GB) because of the index sizes at subscribed DB. Therefore:
I have found that Database D has one table of data size 15 GB, with rows 8349533 and index size 28 GB the biggest in the database. And adding have total of 109 Non clustered indexes:
On using SP_blitzindex i have found approx 50 NC indexes unused with below usage:
Reads: 0 Writes:273,243 and total size of indexes being 18 GB
Last User Seek
Last User Scan
Last User Lookup all '0'Â
0 singleton lookups; 0 scans/seeks; 0 deletes; 0 updates;Â
except for few 3 or 4 where updates are more than 4000.
Is this sufficient enough to delete all the above 49 unused NC indexes? And Can i create Missing index on Subscriber database?

Hi. I'm starting to try out LINQ to SQL, and so I'm using SQL Express (on Vista) to experiment. My problem is that once I create and delete a database, I can never use the name again. If, after deleting the old database, I try to create another one with the same name (say Acct1), I get "Create failed for Database 'Acct1'. An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. The logical file name "Acct1" is already in use. Choose a different name. Error: 1828"
I am trying to create the database in SQL Server Management Studio Express. That database name does not appear in the list of databases: there is only AdventureWorks and the system databases. The .MDF and .LDF files have been deleted. Not just sent to the recycle bin, but permanently deleted.
I have already used up Acct1, Acct2, and Acct3, just to try out different scenarios. Each time, I delete the old database before trying to create a new one with the same name, but I am forced to always supply a new, different name. I have checked the directory with hidden files and system files showing to be sure there is no old file lurking there somewhere.
Is there a way to delete these old "logical file names"? I can't even find any reference to their existence except for the message that says they are already in use.
I have recently installed SQL server 2005 express edition along with Sql server management studio expressI have run the installation twice and during the installation I have created two instances of SQL server one named instance having Windows authentication and the other default instance having mixed mode authentication. Now I want to delete the named instance. Could anybody tellme I can delete the named instance?

I have been trying to develop a simple delete operation in VB using a local SQL Express database located inside the project. My selects, inserts, and updates are working ok, but for some reason my delete doesn't want to work.
I have the database file set to "copy if newer" in the properties and am only using a simple parameterized query to delete. I am not using an bound controls like datagrid and even when I do, the same problem occurs. I am also not using a dataset object.
I have setup a SqlConnection object and a SqlCommand object in my code. The command is set to the Sql text of
Code Snippet
DELETE FROM Providers
WHERE (PaymentDate BETWEEN @StartingDate AND @EndingDate)
In my Database, I have a field called ID which is the primary key and is set as an identity field. PaymentDate is a datetime value and the two parameters "@StartingDate and @EndingDate" are also datetime values passing only the date value from a datetimepicker control in VB.
Code Snippet
SqlCommand1.Parameters("@StartingDate").Value = CType(dateTimePicker1.Text, Date)
. . .
sqlCommand1.ExecuteNonQuery()
and so on.
Anyway, when I run the code, and even when I pass a return value back, it shows it deleted the record without any errors. However, I normally have a query window open selecting all records and before closing the program, I refresh this query and no changes have occurred. The record I tried to delete is still there.
I have tried several time and using several different method (Stored Procedures, databound controls, ete) and am getting the same result each time.
In asking this question in the MSDN VB Forums since I figured it was more than likely a VB problem and not a SQL issue, I was eventually directed here.

I'm trying to delete some records from some tables in a SQL Server 2008 R2 database. There's a foreign key relationship between the two tables. To make things easier here's the definition of both tables:
-- Parent table
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PharmInvInItemPackages](
[InventoryInDetailID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[InventoryInID] [int] NOT NULL,
[ItemPackageID] [int] NOT NULL,

Hi,
I was running out of space and thus deleted some rows from a table. To my surprise the db size increased. I then shrunk it to bring it back to what it was earlier.
When i deleted some 5000 rows, some space must have been released. Where did the space go and why did the db size increase after deleting the records?
I thght it might be log files..but db is set to Simple Recovery which does not utilize a Log File.
Any reasons?
How can I determine how much unused space to remove from database files? I am setting up a maintenance plan and I am trying figure that out.
Also, is there a rule on how far to shrink TL?
Please help. Thanks.
Dear Experts,
I'm working for an ERP company, for our product, there are around 2000 tables. in each table, we are using 10 extra columns for our future use. all these are using nvarchar(50) datatype.
almost 95% of the columns in these are not in use almost. those are having null value and in some columns, the values are like 0,1...
is this affects the performance?
please spare your valuble time
thank you very much

Hello,
I have a table which resides on a diff.filegroup.
The space allocated is 7700MB.
Now ehen I use sp_spaceused 'table_name' to see how much space is left it's giving me data as
rows reserved data index Unused
at 1000hrs 629879 6777904 5068344 8 1709552
After an hour 637537 6780336 5070800 8 1709528

after 3hrs 647239 6783712 5074056 0 KB 1709656 K
If you note rows are increasing,so is the reserved place and data but unused is also increasing.I think it should come down.
What behavior is this?How can I find out how much space is left in this table residing on diff.file group?
TIA
I would like to verify that we do not have any unused login ids. I know I can turn on auditing for successful login attempta and either manually check the logs or write some type of findstring code to capture successful login attempts and then for each success, remove the id from a master list, but I was wondering if there may be a simpler approach. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Dave
I have a 3rd party developed app which has over 42000 data fields in 1200 tables. It is a heavy transaction type app. Of these fields over 10,000 are null for every record. SOme of their homegrown references these fields (and this can be removed), and in many instances many of the fields are not referenced at all. My opinion is that these extra fields are adding a heavy overhead to updates, inserts etc to the server. Any disagreements?

I have a database that allocated:

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am unsure if i am managing my connections in the correct way... but as it stands we have them in a .dtsConfig file that each package references in order to get the relevant details..
This is working fine, except that in total our ETL project uses 6 different connections, and none of the packages utilise all 6.
This leads to an error message upon opening up EVERY package stating that there are connection strings in the .dtsConfig that are unused, yeah, thats the idea!
The way i have gotten around this, is to just include all 6 connection managers in every package, but my question is, is there a better way to achieve this same result??
are we going about this in a bit of a cackhanded way?
any incite would be useful..

Do youthink that it's just a matter of incorrect statistics in sp_spaceused?Thanks in advance:Matt
