How Do I Find Out How Full My Files Are?
Dec 14, 2006When you create data files and filegroups, you specify a size. My
question is -- how do you know how full they are? Is there a stored
procedure for that?
When you create data files and filegroups, you specify a size. My
question is -- how do you know how full they are? Is there a stored
procedure for that?
I need to find out when the data file and transaction log file is full. Is there any stored procedure that will let how much space left. We don't want to set Autogrow for the files.
Thanks,

Hello,I have to implement a method FindProduct, which takes a parameter search query and returns product based on the query.I think i can use full text search here but don't know how. I tried to read a various way but could not figure out. 1

3 [DataObjectMethodAttribute(DataObjectMethodType.Select,true)]
4 public DataLayer.shopDBDataSet.ProductsDataTable GetProducts()
5 {
6 return Adapter.GetProducts();
7 }
8
9 [DataObjectMethodAttribute(DataObjectMethodType.Insert, true)]
10 public bool AddProduct(string UPCCode, string Description, string Size)
11 {
12 shopDBDataSet.ProductsDataTable products = new shopDBDataSet.ProductsDataTable();
13 shopDBDataSet.ProductsRow productRow = products.NewProductsRow();
14
15 productRow.UPCCode = UPCCode;
16 productRow.Description = Description;
17 productRow.Size = Size;
18
19 products.AddProductsRow(productRow);
20 int rowsAffected = Adapter.Update(products);
21 return rowsAffected == 1;
22 }
23
24 [DataObjectMethodAttribute(DataObjectMethodType.Delete, true)]
25 public bool DeleteProduct(string UPCCode)
26 {
27 int rowsAffected = Adapter.Delete(UPCCode);
28 return rowsAffected == 1;
29 }
30
31 [DataObjectMethodAttribute(DataObjectMethodType.Select, false)]
32 public DataLayer.shopDBDataSet.ProductsDataTable FindProducts(string searchQuery)
33 {
34
35 throw new System.NotImplementedException();
36
37 }
38
You can see the method at line number 32. I could not figure out the way to implement it although i know full text search is a good choice.I have following table adapterGetProducts(); GetProductsByManufacturerName(); GetProductsByManufacturerID(), and GetProductsByUPCCode();Product table contains UPCCode, Description, Size columnsBut i need to get the product which returns the description containing search query. I know some of you have done something similar to this. Could you please guide me....Thanks in advance....

I have created a database on SQL Express using SQL Server Manager Express. However, when I try to connect to it in Visual Studio 2005, I cannot find the .mdf file so cannot create the project datasource. Can someone tell me where it is? Searching through the files does not find it. Knowing it cannot be obtained directly and needs to be rebuilt some other way would be helpful.

We have a table that is full text enabled and it is working fine, but the full text search doesn't returns any record for the following case
select * from let_catalog_search where contains(search_field,'"Bulk Process 1*"')
even though there exist records that satisfy the condition in the table,
the record that i am talking abt is "bulk process 1 with price bp100-ilt1-00200136 bp100-ilt1"
If I remove the last 1 from the search string i get lot of records, Can anybody help me out.

I'm trying to open an SDF file. After many searches on the net, it appears that there are two ways to do this:
Open the file in VS 2005
Open the file in SQL Server Management StudioI don't have, and don't plan to purchase, a license to full SQL Server 2005. I do have Visual Studio 2005 Pro. When I open an SDF file in Visual Studio, I get the following (oh so informative) error:
The operation could not be completed. Unspecified error
Since I don't have full SQL server, I downloaded SQL Server Management Studio Express. There's one major problem: the Server type combo box is disabled in the "Connect to Server" dialog. Try as I might, I can find no mention anywhere as to why this is the case. I'm guessing that functionality isn't supported in the Express version of the tool, but as far as I can tell, nobody thinks it might perhaps be reasonable to document why this combo box is disabled. It certainly doesn't show up in the document that shows up when I click the help button on this dialog.
Could somebody at Microsoft please tell me if it is even possible to edit these files without buying a full SQL Server license? I'm trying to use SQL Server Compact Edition to replace legacy code that uses an MDB file (via ADO) for a desktop application. From everything I have read, this is the officially recommended thing to do. But if I now have to buy a full SQL Server lincense to accomplish what used to be a simple double click on an MDB file, then there's something seriously wrong.
I have SQL 2005 on 64 bit cluster OS is Windows server 2003 SP2.

I searched online and found two commands to execute after installing Adobe 6.0 ifilter. I did it last week and then server was rebooted last weekend so it restarted all the services

still pdf full text search is not working. Does this ifilter from Adobe works for 64 bit?
many errors as below are loged into the log file

I am able to perform full text searches if I inform SQL Server the file is a text file but when I set the correct type as a csv the file does not get indexed.
Also nocticed that I have two IFilters one that comes with SQL and the other with Office they have the same name and just the one that is on system32 handles CSV files, office files are processed correctly.
This are the IFilter locations:
C:WINDOWSsystem32offfilt.dll
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.4MSSQLBinnofffilt.dll
I have a valid CSV but when I run the FiltDump.exe command I get:
C:Temp>FiltDump 1075555.csv
FILE: 1075555.csv
Error 0x80030050 loading IFilter
This is the type of error log I get from SQL Server:
2007-11-20 15:30:18.46 spid24s Warning: No appropriate filter was found during full-text index population for table or indexed view '[FileStorage].[dbo].[Document]' (table or indexed view ID '6', database ID '162099618'), full-text key value 0x00000002. Some columns of the row were not indexed.
I will appreciate any help provided.

Thanks in advanace for taking the time to read this post.
I am using MSSQL 2005 and have created a function that allows me to use regular expressions in my SQL queries.
My question is I have a pattern buried in a field of misc data that I need to pull out just that pattern and discard the rest of the data. Here is the Regular Expression I am using
select field1 from table1
where dbo.RegExMatch (field1,'[a-zA-Z]{4}[0-9]{6}[a-zA-Z]{2,4}')=1
This returns all values in the field that match the expression. What I want to do now is remove all data from the field on the left and right of the expression that does not match the expression. How would I accomplish this without reading through the 200k+ records and writing rules for every exception I run across?
so I could have Gar b/a ge 'THE GOOD DATA' m/or1 ba4d da....ta. All I want to do is return 'THE GOOD DATA'
Got following query:
SELECT
event_data.value('(event/data/value)[4]', 'bigint') AS cpu_time,
--database name
event_data.value('(event/data/value)[5]', 'bigint') AS duration,
--estimated cost
--estimated rows
--nest level
[code]...
Basically, is a simple T-SQL query that reads the local file for my already setup extended event sessions. But I can't find the way to retrieve the following attributes as part as the T-SQL query:
--database name
--estimated cost
--estimated rows
--nest level
--object name
I am trying to find a BOL or some MS link with the full list of possible values for event_data.value but can't find one.

I have sql server 2000. I copied a database from one server to another. I have one table that has a full-text index. When I transferred over the database, the index still existed, but was not populated. I made sure the path for the file is pointing to a new correct location. I did "start full population". It only populated one entry @ 1MB. On the old server the index is 100MB with more than 3 million records.
I tried rebuilding, re-creating, and it all works, but when I run "start full population", it only populates 1 record. I double checked the table in question and it has over 3 million records and proper primary key.
How do I resolve this.
I tried all the INFORMATION_SCHEMA on SQL 2000 andI see that the system tables hold pretty much everything I aminterested in: Objects names (columns, functions, stored procedures, ...)stored procedure statements in syscomments table.My questions are:If you script your whole database everything you end up havingin the text sql scripts, are those also located in the system tables?That means i could simply read those system tables to get any informationI would normally look in the sql script files?Can i quickly generate a SQL statement of all the indexes on my database?I read many places that Microsoftsays not to modify anything in those tables and not query them since theirstructure might change in future SQL versions.Is it safe to use and rely the system tables?I basically want to do at least fetching of information i want from thesystem tables rather than the SQL script files.I also want to know if it's pretty safe for me to make changes in thesetables.Can i rename an object name for example an Index name, a Stored Procedurename?Can i add a new column in the syscolumns table for a user table?Thank you

I proposed on a new server that we separate Data Files, Log Files, tempDB, Backups, etc. onto separate LUNS on a SAN with High Speed Solid State Drives.I was told that with the new technology with solid state SAN's that it would decrease performance and that it did not work the same way as it did when you had RAID 5's etc.I thought that if things were cared out correctly by a SAN Administrator they would know how to configure for optimal performance.

Any Suggestions?
In the first step of my SSIS package I need to get files from FTP and dump it/them in a local directory, but it's more than that, the logic is like this:
1. If no file(s) found, stop executing and send email saying no file(s) found;
2. If file(s) found, then compare it/them with existing files in our archive folder; if file(s) already exist in archive folder, stop executing and send email saying file(s) already existed, if file(s) not in archive folder yet, then transfer it/them to the local directory for processing.
I know i have to use a script task to do this and i did some research and found examples for each of the above 2 steps and not both combined, so that's why I need some help here to get the logic incorporated right.
Thanks for the help in advance and i apologize for the long lines of code!

This way I can open the XMLfile using an XML Editor and see the values in a GRID andmake changes easier.Do you see any problem with this approach?I managed to put together some code that is exportinga SQL table with its data to an XML file and also a codethat reads the XML file's data and inserts it into a table.Now I am researching on XSD, td:datatype, DTD...(I am new to XML) in order to figure out how I canuse a single xml file that will hold both the sql serverfields, the datatypes and their values.If you have links to some sample code that has anythingto do with the datatype export and import I am workingon, can you please share them with me?Most importantly what do you think about the idea of usingXML files vs sql scripts?Thank you
