Iam close to Production on our new SQL Server Environment.
How do u typically manage Disk Space (Particularly tempdb)
-Would you have a Job to run during Non Usage Hours to Shrink the Tempdb?
OR
-Would you have the Autoshrink ON?
What is the best approach?
I am having a problem with the growth of the tempdb on my SQL 7.0 box. I have over 300+ stored procedures that are running (many with group by and order by in them). This is causing the size of my tempdb to grow to over 30gigs in size. If i reset the services of the DB it shrinks back down to the managable 6 gigs that i expect. Is there a way to have the services restart automatically on a nightly basis or is there a way to have the tempdb deallocate resources once they are used without restarting services?
I apreciate any help you can provide,
Nathan
HI-
I've got a development server where I periodically have to allow the tempdb to grow to over 2GB. However, I'm at a loss on how to shrink the tempdb back down to a manageable size. I need the drive space on the server for other tasks. This seems like such a simple thing but I can't find information anywhere on it.

the problem i have is that the tempdb mdf file has been slowly growing over the last couple of months and has filled the disk. i've managed to claim a little bit of space by running dbcc shrinkdatabase but as its a production server would rather not stop and start the service. is there a way of finding out what it taking up all the space and deleting it to reclaim the space?

We have a problem with the size of the tempdb.mdf file. The tempdb had grown to 25Gb and consumed all the available disk space. SQL server was restarted and the tempdb was reset back to the default size. The following day the tempdb suddenly increased in size from 200mb to 25GB within a very short space of time. There were a couple of event log entries from sqlservger regarding the lack of disk. Since then the server is running without any problems but the level of free space is virtually zero on the drive with tempdb.mdf file.
What would cause the tempdb to grow suddenly and to this size?
Can I control the size the tempdb can grow to?

Hi all,
I have recently setup a transactional replication in MS SQL 2000. After setting up the replication the clients TempDB grew by almost 60GB. Now the client is Blaming me for the TempDB GROWTH and saying that its because of the replication being setup i tried to convince them but they are not satisfied yet. Can anybody please tell me does replication cause the tempdb to grow. If yes then how. can u suggest any good link for getting to know the internal working of SQL Server replication????
Thanks in advance

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!

Hey EveryoneI have a desktop machine and a laptop machine. Both have XP Pro. I prefer to code on my laptop, but I want to use my desktop machine as a home server/development environment because its always on. I have IIS (HTTP and FTP), .NET 2.0, my mp3 server, etc up and running just fine on my desktop.When I'm working on an application, I access the site with VWD through a network share. It's worked great so far. What I haven't been able to do, however, is connect to the database with VWD or Management Studio Express. I don't even really know where to begin with this one. What I don't want to do is open this up to the internet. I'd like to just keep it accessible from the LAN (the database, not the website)I'm new to database stuff, and I don't really know where to look to figure out how to do this. Basically, I want to have the same functionality with VWD or Management Studio that I would have if I was physically on the machine with the SQL Express server.If anyone can provide some advice, I'd really appreciate it.Thanks!Brandon

I have worked with mysql for sometimes now and everywhere there was a mysql there was phpmyadmin for managing it but now on my new windows hosting with plesk I don't see such program. The only thing I see is a pothetic program called ASP.NET enterprise manager that doesn't allow uploading data.
.
Before I just manage the SQL serve in LAN.
Right now i have a SQL server on internet I want to Remote manage
Can I still use QA and Enterprise Manager ?

In a previous application i stored about 100.000 actions ( coming from an external system )in an access database for each day. Therefore i created everyday a new accessdatabase to have enough performance. Each month i copied automatically all databases in a new 'month' map as a backup.
The goal of the application is the view all actions of one day of week in one grid. This is a kind of history of the external system.
I'm afraid the application will become to slow if i save all actions in one database. ( after 1 month i will have 3.000.000 actions.
How this is done in an sql server ?
Do i have to use a different kind of method ?
is there any datatye that can accept 16 digit number
Say for example I have the following 2 database tables, the first one contains the old employee data, and has the fields shown below:
oldEmployeeID
FirstName
LastName
DateOfBirth
HiringDate
TerminationDate
and another one containing the new employee data with similar fields but instead of oldEmployeeID, it is showing the newEmployeeID.
During the conversion process, something were messed up and instead of putting in the original hiring date of the workers into the new employee database, the conversion date was put in, which, depending on the mood of HR ladies, could be any date, and at the same time, of course, new employee join the company, and we assume their hiring dates were entered correctly. On top of that, there are some employee who were terminated before the conversion took place but we still need to keep a record of that.
And I created a third table, say, emplyeeAll with similar fields to the employee data tables.
So here is what I need to do: if the firstName, lastName and DateOfBirth in the old employee data table and the new employee data table matches, I would assume they are the same employee, hence I would put the information for the employee obtained from the new employee data table to the employeeAll table, with the Hiring Date changed to the Hiring Date of the old employee data table (and do not copy the record from the old employee table to prevent duplicates), otherwise, I would simply copy and paste the data in new and old employee table to my employeeAll table.
I know this is really confusing, but...well...hope you know what I am saying...
Is it possible to have a SQL statement for all these? If so, how should the statement looks like?
Thanks a lot!

I have been having "fun" trying to get all the bits (SSCE 3.5, Orcas Beta 2, SQL Managment Studio) in Vista 64 and Xp 32.
So far I have found at the SQLMetal does work with SSCE 3.5 but not in Vista64
BUT I cannot get any tool (tried SQL and SLQ express) to manage my SSCE db - ie make relationshipos so that SQLMatal can do its stuff
Any advice as to which tool to use to manage SSCE 3.5
Thanks

1) Does shrinking a db have any side affects ? Or this is pretty much a normal
operation ?
2) Also in db options, is it recommended to have auto shrink checked ?
Thanks for your help.
I am new to SQL server.
We have many databases for which log files have grown much bigger. The one I need to Shrink immediately has 16 MB .mdf file and 12 GB of .ldf file.
I will very much appreciate, if somebody can help me with step by step process to shrink the database/log file (some way). We are in a crunch situation
Thanks
Does this seem right? We have our transaction logs set to "Truncate Log on Checkpoint" and they still grow over 1GB. Is it possible that one transaction (to a checkpoint) generates this much logged information? Will transaction log backups every 5-10 minutes help me out better or is this just a poorly written application?
Thanks!
Hi,
I am moving table(14 million rows) data from one server to another, The transactional log file growth during the process is 3 folds compared to actual data file size.
Could you please tell why?
Thanks

Well my question is how do i analyze db growth per day. is there a tool i can use or a method. I mean i do take a look at the task view and the files but per day it doesnt move in MB wich is weird since this is a warehouse and their are nightly loads to it inserting maybe 30000 record a night on avg.
Any help would be grately aprreciated.
Hi everyone,
I'm a beginner in SQL Server databases, my problem is this:
i'm making a database witch the frontend is an access project, the database has several stored procedures views and user functions (the normal..), but a few data, (only the experimental), last night i've noticed that the file grow from 22 MB to 89 MB, the objects are the same and also the data, the only diference was that i forgot to put in an event procedure code, the ADO method, "MoveNext", to update various records, and the loop was infinit.
Is it possible that SQL statments generated by ADO make the file grow so rapidly!?
If so how can i shrink it, because i've tried and and the results was 4%.
Can you help me!?
Thanks
We use SQL 2000 and our database is configured to grow automatically by10%. Currently 96% of our database is used. At what point will thedatabase expand - what is the trigger point?

Hi
How i can manage a DTS Package usin Asp.net
Hi,
I'm currently migrating to Sql 2005 from 2000 and have a quick question about indexes.
In 2000 i used to click on Table > All Tasks > Manage Indexes... to view and create all my table indexes. There doesn't seem to be anything similar in 2005 Management Studio. I thought it was under Table > Modify but there's nothing there for indexes. I've had to create all my indexes manually through t-sql but this doesn't help when needing to view and manage current indexes.
Can anyone help me on this?
Hi All
It´s my DropDownList data source from my page1.aspx:
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlChampionships" runat="server" DataSourceID="sdsSearchChampionships" DataTextField="name" DataValueField="id_championship"> </asp:DropDownList><asp:SqlDataSource ID="sdsSearchChampionships" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:LocalSqlServer %>"
ProviderName="System.Data.SqlClient" SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Tupi_Campeonatos]"></asp:SqlDataSource>
When I put a new championship name in a TextBox and click on the button "ADD", this button event click is called:
Protected Sub btAddChampionship_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btAddChampionship.Click
insertNewChampionshipIntoDataBase()
End Sub
The Page then reloads but my DropDownList is not updated. The way I found to do it is to put the DDList update code after the calling of the insertNewChampionshipIntoDataBase() method, but how???
thnx
What admin tool do I use to create databases, stored procedures, etc in the Sql Server 2005 CTP?
