HOW TO DETERMINE DB SIZE AND MACHINE REQUIREMENTS
Oct 30, 2000
I'm developing a website that will be suported by a SQL Server database. The estimated number of records for that database will be around one million. I'm concerned with the possibility of my machine being unable to respond to the needs of such a database so i decided to acquire a new one. How do i calculate the hard disk and RAM i'm going to need for this database to function properly ? I know that i can make a HD prediction by adding the sizes of each field of my database and multiplying by one million but i don't know how much KBs each field occupy (some of them -few- will even be free text fields). And the RAM ?
Help... Anybody ?
Thanks,
Carlos.

Is there a way to see how much memory your current SQL Server install is using? I recently had to do some reconfiguring, and although it went fine, I'd like to build a spreadsheet model so I could see what different parameter values do to memory usage. I'm kinda surprised there isn't one already.
And yes, I realize that 99% of the configuration options go away in 7.0. We're going to have 6.5 here for a while yet.

Simple question...
When I use the full version of SQL Management Studio, I can run a report to view the size. How can I do this with SQL Mgmnt Express?

Is there any method to find out the size of an image datatype currently in the database. For example I have 2 tables that contain the same image, but the archive table is not displaying the same as the main. I am thinking the image file was corrupted somehow but don't know how to check this out.
Any ideas?

I am working on Sql Server 2012. and I have multiple databases there. Out of those, i want to move one of my databases to other SQL server 2012, For that i was trying to get approximate size of my database on current server. As i don't have the admin rights, so i can't get that. Can i get the approximate size by right clicking on database and by using the size property Under Database category to get the size idea?

I am working on complex invoice document that handles various types of invoicing, credit, and progress bill customer facing documents. Â I am faced with same problem I see many SSRS devs posting on. Â And that is extra blank pages, being generated because the report width exceeds the width of the page.
My problem is I cannot shrink the horizontal width of the tablix and therefore the report width either...
While I would have done things differently if developing from scratch, the tablix in question has only one column and objects contained in rectangles are placed in the row/column cell.....The link to the image below shows the row I am currently working on. Â Essentially all the client wants a columnar report with column lines, closed footers, etc... Â so rather redoing the whole tablix, which I still might do, I am using rectangles with the column then lining them up. Â Anyway, that is a whole 'nuther post. Â My specific questions are: Â
Invoice in Report Builder
1. In the image I have selected the parent rectangle. Â The children are other rectangles and the data is with grandchildren textboxes that exist within those rectangles. Â I clearly have a bit of right side white space in the main parent rectangle, but there is no sizing tool on a hover... just move tool. Â And if I change the rectangle size in the prop form it just snaps back to the cell width. Â How do I size the parent rectangle and keep if from expanding.
Here I am guessing that to actually reduce the horizontal width of tablix and then the report, I have to first decrease the parent width of the rectangles that occur in each row?

I am trying to resize a database initial log file from 500M to 2M. I€™m using€?
ALTER DATABASE <DBNAME> MODIFY FILE ( NAME = <DBLOGFILENAME, SIZE = 2 ) "
And I'm getting "MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size." I tried going into the database properties and setting the log file to 2M, but it doesn€™t keep the changes.
Any help with this process?

Help!
I am using Script Transformation to output a new column as image[DT_IMAGE]
field to store serialized object. In the VB script, the sample code as
Row.serializedobject.AddBlobData ( binaryArrayReturnedFromC#dll )
The package always runs fine on my developing machine and will halt on other
machine at AddBlobData after certain number row records were processed. I am
stuck here. Anyone has any suggestion?
What I need is reading data from mutiple tables in one database and writing
into a single table in another datable. In order preserve all the columns
data, I use input column fields to construct a new object and then serialize
it, and store the serialize data into detination db table. (The object and
serialization function is coming from c# dll.)
Dim b As BusinessLicense = New BusinessLicense()
b.ApprovalDate = Row.approvaldate
b.BusinessId = Row.busid
b.BusinessName = Row.busname
b.NaicsCode = Row.naicscode
b.NaicsDescription = Row.naicsdescr
b.OwnerName = Row.ownername
b.Phone = Row.phone
b.Pkey = Row.pkey
b.RenewalDate = Row.renewaldate
b.StartDate = Row.startdate
b.Suite = Row.suite
Row.serializedobject.AddBlobData(Serializer.Serialize(b)) '''----This is blocking line
Row.infoType = BusinessLicense.TYPE
Both machine is xp with sp2. and standard SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06
Thanks!

Hi to everyone,
I'm facing a problem that drives me crazy. I've a web application that has the following problem. When I test the application on my developement machine all runs fine, but when I put into production server there is a problem in connection pooling. Look at the following image, the blue line is the number of connection in the pool and the violet line is the number of connection reclaimed. From the image it is clear that connection are returned on the pool only in block, maybe when the garbage collection pass and reclaim the object. The strange thing is that on my developement machine all is good, and also I'm using Enterprise Library and the connection are managed internally.- Thanks to everyone for any help.

Hullo all
I have two machines,
One is a standalone machine and the other is on a domain network. How can I run a stored procedure/job on the standalone machine from the domain machine ?
running the procedure as a Domain user results in a failed job/stored proc.
also creating an sql login and attempting to run it as that user also fails. How can I solve this problem ?
please e-mail me at wayde@sunnygrp.com if you have any thoughts...

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if there was any white papers on the migration part from microsoft?
Apparently the situation is like this
Currently installed MOSS 2007 in a testing pc as application server. This application server will refer another testing database server which running SQL Server 2005.
Now, wanted to move this 2 temporary server into another 2 new servers.
Correct me if I'm wrong, it cannot be done by using image like Norton Ghost due to difference hardware spec.
So, if I install another fresh copy of MOSS2007 & SQL server 2005 in that 2 new servers, how can I migrate the contents, documents, etc from the testing database server?
It would be great if someone can show me the links to kb article. Thanks

For SQL 2000, what are the licensing requirements for a clustered environment? I thought you needed datacenter for the OS, is there a clustered version of sql server, or do you need 2 copies of enterprise edition. Also, if you cluster can you license sql cals for clients, or do you have to do by processor?

I have a sql server (2k sp4), a web server and a development machine.
I need to install sql server reporting services and am confused as to the prerequisites and as to what gets installed where.
Is there a server install and a client install or do I run the same install on both (and deselect what's not required on each).
Sorry it's a bit vague but in my research various people have told me various different things.

Hey all,
I couldn't find an answer anywhere on the site, if there is one, could you please let me know where to go? Thanks.
Here goes. We receive large csv files, around a million records a month. What we need to do is:
- Of course, import these records
- Be able to run failry heavy reports on around 3 months worth of data (about 3 million records)
- Wanting to store at least a years worth of data
What I need to know:
- What server(s) spec (CPU, HDD, memory, etc) would we need to import and run reports quite fast. Don't want the reports/imports to take days to run. The reports will need to be run by about 3-5 people at the same time
- What OS and database type should I use (I was looking at Windows/Linux and MS SQL/MySQL)
- If we run these types of reports, can we use the same SQL server to run/store other applications (eg. CRM, etc) with no real impact on performance. There would be at least 20 people using the CRM database at the same time.
Thanks

Can 2005 be installed on XP Media Center Edition? I looked on the SQL site,
but it only references Windows XP, not this particular version. Any whitepapers, links, etc., would be especially appreciated.

I have seen it mentioned that, unlike with the MSDE where DTS runtime was covered, the new SSIS is not covered by the SQL Server 2005 Express.
Does anybody know of an official microsoft web page detailing comprehensively what is required.
As far as I can gather the client will need a full version of SQL Server 2005, enabling the installation of the client tools, which as far as I can tell are required for the running of the SSIS.
This statement could be totally wrong but clear information seems hard to come by and seems mainly hearsay.
Thanks

What security settings are needed to allow users to veiw reports using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services Web interface. We have tried adding users to Active Directory Groups and adding these groups to: the security of the folder containing the reports in Reporting Services and the security of the individual reports in Reporting Services. What am I missing? Does something need to be set when creating the report itself?

Hello experts out there,
Just one quick question, will installing reporting services require the server to reboot or sql to restart? I'll do this to a production server and just wonder if I can do while the box is in use.
Thank you in advance. You guys rock!
