Dump Or Shrink Tempdb
May 30, 2002Does tempdb ever need to be shrunk, or have it's log (does it even have one) dumped or does sql server handle this chore?
View 2 RepliesDoes tempdb ever need to be shrunk, or have it's log (does it even have one) dumped or does sql server handle this chore?
View 2 RepliesMy tempdb keeps filling up. A look at sysindexes indicates that all of the space used is in syslogs. Running dump tran (no_log, truncate_only), dump database, and checkpoint
give no relief. No transactions are open. Log and data are on shared devices (2MB on master device, 1024MB on a dedicated tempdb device).
Why won't my tempdb log dump off?
Thanks,
Chris
I have a 28Gb temp db transaction log which I want to dump halfway through a process, I have tried;
dump tran tempdb with no_log
which seems to have little effect.
Thanks for your help.

I was able to find a few posts on this topic, but none of them quiteseemed to fit the situation, so I'm hoping that someone else might beable to help me here.I have a client who is using SQL 2005 (sorry, don't have the exactbuild with me). They run a weekly process which causes TempDB to growto over 100GB before it fails due to a full disk. Once it's grown tothat size we can't seem to shrink it again short of restarting theserver.The database is set to Simple recovery mode and I believe that it isset to auto shrink.Here are some things that found out/tried:DBCC SHRINKFILE (tempdev, 50000) does nothing.DBCC OPENTRAN returns no transactions.If I look in TempDB for any temporary tables, I get a couple dozen.They all have zero rows in them though. I didn't think to look at thecolumns that they contain, but maybe that will give me an indicationof their use. I used SELECT OBJECT_NAME(id), rowcnt FROMtempdb..sysindexes WHERE OBJECT_NAME(id) LIKE '#%'sp_spaceused shows that almost none of the space is actually beingused.I've looked for reindexing operations in their code and didn't seeany, but there's quite a bit of code there. While there are someoperations against some very large tables, I didn't see any obviouscartesian products or sorts either. Again though, there's a lot ofcode and I haven't profiled much of it.My plan right now is to reboot, set up a trace to track both filegrowths and SQL statements and then see if I can find whichstatement(s) are causing the TempDB to grow to be so large. Anysuggestions on additional things to track? Even given this though, Idon't know if that will help me with the shrinking issue, except topossibly prevent it from being necessary in the future.Any advice or suggestions welcome. Please let me know if I've left outany important information. I always seem to forget at least oneobviously important bit of information. :-)Thanks!-Tom.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
We're running our database on SQL Server 7 and we've setup the tempdb to grow automatically.Gradually,it has grown upto 11390 MB and the used space is only 14 MB.It's not shrinking when we used the shrinkdb option.We cannot move the tempdb to RAM as it's very big.Can anyone help us in this...
How do you shrink the tempdb in SQL Server 7 after you allocated a large space to it but later realized you allocated too much.... I need to reclaim the space allocated to it but when I try to change the size or do a shrinkdb it either tells me I cannot shrink it smaller than allocated size or it shrinks tempdb to current (which is too large)... I looked online but could not find anything...
Any suggestions or assistance would be much appreciated... up to my eyes in tempdb..... Bill.
Hi Guys,
Tempdb in one of our SQLSERVER is standing at 5GB. I try to shrink it to 2GB, using following commands.
DBCC shrinfile(2,2000)
DBCC SHRINKDATABASE (tempdb, 2000)
It doesn't want to shrink at all... I ran sp_spaceused it give following results
Reserved data indx_size unused.

I dont understand why tempdb doesnt want to shrink...?? help is greatly appericated.. thanks..
One of my boxes was built with all of the system databases on the C: drive, and tempdb is up to 2 GB and there is no room left on the drive
It should have been installed on the D: drive
I've never had to do this before, mostly because I never install sql serevr on the c partition
Any war stories or suggestions

I have a install of SQL 2005 that is about 5 months old. The tempdb.mdf and master.mdf files have ballooned to a huge size almost filling my hard drive. How do I reset them to a reasonable size?

I'm running Sql 2000 with many users logged in. My tempdb database has grown to a large size 3/4 of it free space. Is there a way to shrink the database while users are logged on. I tried using the enterprise mgr. to shrink the tempdb database, but it did not work. How can I shrink this? It's using a ton of free space.
Thank You in advance
I have a tempdb that was created at 1Gig. I don't know why but I want to shrink it below the original creation size. Is there a way to shrink this file or create a new file and delete the old?
I have tried shinkfile and shrink database with no luck.
Thanks Jeff
A customer on SQL7 has a 40GB tempdb (which is usually 2-5GB) which has filled the drive. ShrinkDb/ShrinkFile do nothing as the db has only 2GB of free space. How can I truncate the data or blitz tempdb and create a new (2-5GB) one (Stopping the server, deleteing the .mdf, starting the server creates a new tempdb with the same size as the old one!)

Database MDF is 27806 MB and I tried to shrink but unable to shrink. It is production server.I do not want Restart sql server.There is no open transaction.
If you have problems shrinking a transaction log no matter what commands you issue, here's a way to shrink the tranlog:
1. Right click on the properties of the database and go to the options tab.
2. Change the recovery mode to simple.
3. Right click again on the database - go to all tasks - shrink database.
4. Shrink the database.
5. Change the recovery mode back to what you had it as.
I found this out by trial and error as I could not find any documentation on it and no matter what I tried, I could not get the transaction log to shrink.
Has anyone seen the SQL Server error:
"tempdb is skipped. You cannot run a query that requires tempdb"?
We're running a .Net web application with a SQL Server 2000 backend, and we get the error intermittently. Restarting the SQL Server service seems to fix it, as it causes tempdb to be rebuilt, but this isn't a long term solution. Any direction or hints would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I have added a new SQL Server database to my project and I was wondering how to do generate a SQL dump of the database, tables, and queries? I couldn't find any utilities in Visual Studio 2008 Pro. I also couldn't figure out how to create indexes using VS. Thanks!

I am trying to dump my mssql DB so I can upload it to my web server.
I am using SQLDump v3.0b1 from sourceforge.net.
My problem is, when generating the dump file, any value greater than 1000 in a money column is set to 1.0000 in the dump file.
Does anyone know of a better program I should be using or a way for me to correct this?
My DB is huge and it would take far too much time to go through the dump file and correct the changed values.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanx

Hi all,
When I use "DUMP DATABASE", it will help me to backup both database and
transaction log. However, it will not help me to clean up the transaction log.
Therefore, I am worry that will the following happen?
1. DUMP DATABASE
Start backup database
( there are transactions during the backup process )
Finish backup database
Start backup transaction
Finish backup transaction
2. DUMP TRANSACTION
Start backup transaction and clean up the transaction log
So, will the transactions been backuped twice? If yes, will it cause those
transaction do twice when I restore the database then restore the transaction?
Thanks
Hi,
I need to dump transaction log every night. Before I do that I'd like to check those open transactions and kill the ones not part of sa or SQL server dba's activity. How can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance.

After Dumping a database device, I still find the xxx.DAT files inthe /Data directory. Can these be 'safely' removed/backed up ?
They are taking up WAY too much space.
Question 2: After installation and after creating devices & databases, is there any way to reassign the /Data directory on another drive?
Either for future devices/databases or existing?
Thank you much,

I understand from the beta sql 7 newsgroups that 7 can't restore a 6.5 dump. This is extremely frustrating that MS wouldn't put this type of backword compatibility into 7.
Has anyone found another way to accomplish this? I can't use transfer manager as the 2 servers are on seperate, non-connected boxes. I ftp'd the dump from 6.5 server to a middle-man machine, then copied it to the 7.0 server.
Am I looking at bcp'ing out all 203 tables in my 1GB db then bcp'ing them back in?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Andre
Is there a way to dump sql in Access like in Transact SQL or mysqldump?
I've gotta convert an Access Database into a MySQL database, it is a small database, but I'd not want to put it in by hand .
If not, I'll just make a PHP script to rip it from a textfile.
I am trying to import a database from a dump file.
The dump file is from a sql server db.
I have created the db on another server and want to import the data from the
dump file.
I use the bcp like this :
bcp nnfdb.sa.users in x -Usa -P
nnfdb is the name of the database
users is the name of a table
x is the name of the dump file.
But I get this error :
SQLState = S0002, NativeError = 208
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name
'nnfdb.sa.users'.
also I am sure if I have to run the bcp for each table or if I can import
all tables in one bcp run.

Kris
