Apr 25, 2007

I'm fairly new to the DBA thing.
I've been doing quite a bit of research on monitoring MSSQL performance.

What tools are you guys using?
PerfMon, Dbartisan, Spotlight, or what?

I'd like to find some free or affordable way to watch our Servers to check health/performance/etc.

Favorite Sql Server Db Compare/diff Tools

Dec 15, 2003

guys...do you have any recommendations for a tool that compares specific MS sql databases including data comparisons?

I typically develop locally, then deploy remotely.

it's getting to be quite a pain to not only remember which schema objects to update on the remote host, but the data elements that need to be keyed in as well.

are there any shareware tools out there you'd recommend? (I don't have a great budget as this is coming out of MY pocket and not my companies.)

THanks!

SQLExpress - Hosting Web Sites

Feb 15, 2006

If I were going to look into investing into a virtual dedicated server and wanted to save LOTS of $$$  by offerring SQLExpress (FREE) vs. SQL Server Enterprise $25,000 sticker price.
The Web sites that I build are for small businesses.
Is there an issue in using SQLExpress on the Internet?  Considering it is the Web application account ID accessing the database so that is one user hitting the DB.
I am unclear on how I need to evaluate multiple calls to the system depending on how many users are on the Web site opening the connection performing SQL Commands then closing the connections all with the same user creditials.

SQL Replication For Multiple Sites

Oct 5, 2007

I am trrying to figure out what the best replication would be to use and or setup...

Her eis the current goal and structure..

We are just moving over to a new custom POS system that will be using SQL databases....We have have three locations and we want each location to be independent in case of network connectively failures to our primary location.

Basically, all three locations will be running SQL server 2005 and the POS app...
We want replication to occur overnight, so that each location will have the other locations transactions from the previous days, etc...

Essencially I want all three locations to "syncronize" their data every night....basically two-way replicaiton between all three sites...

Master Site will have say databaseA that the local POS system will use
Sencond Site will have say databaseA that the local POS system will use as well

Third Site will have say databaseA that the local POS system will use well...

Any thoughts or Ideas will be helpful

Thx
Martin

SQL Restart Kills SQL-based Sites On IIS

Apr 12, 2007

I have a SQL 2005 server on a separate machine from my IIS machine, and anytime the SQL server restarts (like for last night's automatic updates) the connection pooling seems to break.  Among the apps on this IIS box is Community Server 2.1, along with some other custom-built apps.  The only way to resolve it is to stop and restart the IIS services.
Previously all SQL-dependent apps on that IIS box broke when SQL was reset, but I seemed to have addressed it, at least on my custom-built apps, by forcing a TCP connection in the connection strings (instead of the default named pipes method).  I did change the Community Server connection strings as well, but for some reason that didn't seem to work.
Has anyone else experienced similar problems with interruptions in SQL connectivity bringing down apps that connect to that SQL server?  I hate to turn off automatic updates just to make sure my ASP.NET apps are available.
I apologize if this isn't clearly an ASP.NET question, but hopefully someone can help me out.
Thanks,Josh

Maintaining SQL Server At Customer Sites

Apr 18, 2003

I am wondering how people maintain their SQL Servers which run at several customers sites and disk space is getting smaller and smaller? I want to say that we have tables in SQL dbs which hold a lot of date consisting of statistics, errors, logs etc.
They grow and grow and existing data is not needed anymore as soon as the data get older than let's say for one year. How do you overcome the problem reducing the tables but not charging the system too much as the major application also runs on the same server?

Thanks for any input

Distributing Data To Client Sites...

Jul 15, 2004

We have a large SQL database, and we need to send out updated records to many clients' sites which are not connected.

We currently have a tool which looks at the audit log of changes we made, creates a file based on this, which is then emailed to our clients. They then run a tool we created to remerge the changes.

I suspect SQL server replication might make all this possible. Am I right? Can SQL server produce a file automatically which can be applied to a remote database to update the tables as appropriate? From looking at some replication stuff it looks to me like you have to have the servers on the same network.

What Is Being Stored In ASPNETDB.MDF -- It Consumes ~1/2 My Sites Space!

Mar 14, 2007

Using VS2005, VB backend and javascript,
I have developed a relatively simple site - its got a few (12) simple aspx pages but its mostly client side javascript. Keeping disk storage costs down is a big concern with this my site. The disk usage for the site is ~24M. Since this was larger than I expected I started inspecting the files comprising my site and found that the "ASPNETDB.MDF" in my "App_data" folder is consuming 10.2M by itself. The thing is that site only has a few pages with calls to SQL Server - but I never did anything (that I know of) with ASPNETDB.MDF. Through VS2005, I opened up the MDF file and poked around, everything that I looked at was empty (NULL). 
So my questions are:

What is causing the ASPNETDB.MDF to consume 10.2M even thought I can't see any data stored in it?
Is there anyway for my to reduce the size of this file? If so, how?
Can someone give me some pointers as to where to read up on what the ASPNETDB.MDF does?

Geographic Data, Multiple Sites And Replication

Mar 13, 2002

Hello all, I am in the process of doing some research and thought I would query you guys (and gals) for your opinions. I have never setup replication and my company is bringing up multiple sites, multiple GIS servers with one master GIS server. They want them to be replicated. Network bandwidth throughout the day is a concern and I may have an option to run replication at night. All servers will be continuously connected and they tell me that each site will be owners of it's data so data conflict should not be an issue. I originally thought qued-updating subscribers and transactional replication but it sounds like that does not work if the servers will always be connected. Any opinions on this anyone? Also, keep in mind that this is GIS data so there will be pretty big blob files in the database. Thanks in advance. RayH

Keeping PK's Unique Across (potentially) Disconnected Sites.

Apr 17, 2008

Hi All,

I'd like to throw this idea 'out there' to see if I'm missing something I'll later regret.

I'm looking to resolve a scalability issue within our point-of-sale program. Currently the PK on transactional tables (sales and orders) is created by the application layer using a 'MAX(PKCol) + 1' mechanism. Obviously this requires that all users of the system, whether they're local or remote, have current data at any time they wish to insert. It's this limitation I'd like to remove. Most sites are using MS SQL Server 2000. No sites use anything specific to a later version.

By having a PK that can be generated independently of a 'master' database we can overcome this issue. The PK values will need to be unique within a 'group' of shops and able to be generated by a program operating at any level. From 'head office' which manages a number of shops, to the server at a given shop and even the register / till itself should be able to create ID's while disconnected from the server (using a local database).

It seems there's three main ways to accomplish this:
- Identities,
- MachineID, CurrentPK composite.
- GUID's

Identities: I've ruled out identities as I believe the administration overhead of dealing with them makes them impractical (there may be several hundred registers and therefore as many ranges to be set up within a group).

MachineID, CurrentPK composite: The MachineID references a Machine table which has an entry for each ethernet MAC address which connects to the database. The reason I chose to store the MAC in another table rather than simply using it as column is that I'm fetching it from sysprocesses.net_address(nchar(12)) and believe it's computationally cheaper to use an int than a text column. This mechanism means that we can still expose the PK to the user in some cases (eg: InvoiceNumber printed on a receipt). When the local database is not up to date (usually due to network problems) there will be cases where the CurrentPK will be duplicated but kept unique since it's coupled with the new MachineID. The big drawback to this method is that all current code will need to be revised to deal with the composite keys (this will be a significant amount of development).

GUIDs: Ugly to look at and time-consuming to type. They're not something which you'd expose to a user unmodified so realistically this means altering existing code to use a new 'user friendly' number where the PK is currently exposed to them. The use of GUIDs rule-out the use of clustered indecies on tables they're the PK for lest most inserts cause a page split. The splits would also necessitate more frequent index defrags / rebuilds. Using a non-clustered index incurs a penalty Vs a non-fragmented clustered one (doesn't it?) so while this avoids page-splits it comes at a cost.

After all that I think the best solution is to use GUIDs with a non-clustered index for each of the PK's. While it might not be the fastest of the options (slower reads/joins Vs composite PK) it will be significantly faster to develop while maintaining acceptable performance.

Thoughts?

Host Multiple Sites On Report Server?

Mar 28, 2007

Is it possible to host more than one site on the server that hosts reporting services?We have a web app that is accessed through intranet. This site is hosted (IIS)on the same server as the sql server 2005 database that is used as the backend. Is it possible to run reporting services from this same server? or does the reporting services default site require to be the only site hosted?

Database Connection Pooling Behavior For Multiple IIS Sites.

Mar 28, 2006

How does database connection pooling work for multiple "copies" of the same web application on the same server?  My IIS 5 win2K server has 32 sites, all pointed to the same code. Each site responds to a different IP/URL(www.a.com, www.b.com, etc.) for SSL reasons. DB is SQL 2000.
Based on perf stats, as a new site spins up, a new pool is created.  So when I hit site 1, I see 10 pooled connections. Site 2 bumps it up to 20, etc.  However, I don't see it go up to 320, so it isn't linear.
BTW, I'm trying to build a case for having 1 site/application that all URL's point to in order to conserve memory, connection pooling, caching, etc.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
-Allen
