How To Create A New Serverinstance But With Old Datafiles?

Jul 23, 2005

Hi group
I want to make a new serverinstance, but based on some old files from a
previous instance I once had from a SQL I scrapped.
I only know how to use the SQL Server enterprise manager console, and I
haven't found any tools in there to do that.
Any suggestion will be more than welcome.

Oct 26, 2006

I can't find this anywhere in the thousands of objects in SSIS. So I thought I would ask.

I have a situtation where I want to retrieve the serverinstance name of the SSIS job is running on. I have multiple servers and instances and I want to send emails like "Failed see serverinstance - job name".

Any ideas?

Thanks

Shrinking SQL2000 Database W 20 Datafiles.

Jul 23, 2005

Hello,I am trying to clean up a database I inherited.I have an 80GB SQL 2000 database with 20 datafiles each 4096 in size. Ihave been able to remove unneeded data and am now trying to clean up.If I do a Shrink on each datafile would able to recover on average 2gbout of 4g, however I would prefer to have 10 full datafiles and 10empty. (or better yet 5 full 8GB datafiles and 15 empty)Can someone point me in the right direction on how to move the dataaround so that dont have 20 partially filled datafiles?I have noticed that I can shrink a single file and use the "empty thefile option (and move data to other files in the group)." option. Ihave already done this to the last 2 datafiles as a test but not surehow to do this on a large scale. I have also set the 1st 10 datafilesto be able to grow to 8 GB.For lack of a better way to say this, Is there a way to defrag orreorganize the data ables so everything "moves to the front".BTW, I have already run a maintenance plan to reorganize the data andindex pages.

Connecting To Datafiles Stored Remotely From SQL Server--not Locally From The SQL Server

Jun 18, 2001

I had asked a question last week and I realized that I had phrased it in a misleading way. Within a lab environment at my company, we are experimenting w/ accessing remote SQL data files stored separately on another machine from the SQL server itself (whether it be another client or server).

The experiment is this: You have one client machine accessing a SQL server via Enterprise Manager. The datafiles that you are trying to access are stored on another machine that does not have SQL Server installed. This remote machine only has the datafiles.

Can one map a static path via UNC from the SQL server to the datafiles on the remote machine and then access these datafiles (as long as the user's account has the appropriate permissions to the remote machine)? To my understanding, within SQL server you can only access datafiles that are stored locally on the SQL server itself.

The other thing that I was wondering was if the type of user account had some significance in this situation. More than likely, a local user account would not be able to access the remote machine w/ the datafiles even if the SQL server could map an UNC path and retain it. A domainuser account might be able to do this though.

Any help that you could provide would be appreciated.

Create Variable To Store Fetched Name To Use Within BEGIN / END Statements To Create A Login

Mar 3, 2014

I created a cursor that moves through a table to retrieve a user's name.When I open this cursor, I create a variable to store the fetched name to use within the BEGIN/END statements to create a login, user, and role.

I'm getting an 'incorrect syntax' error at the variable. For example ..

CREATE LOGIN @NAME WITH PASSWORD 'password'

I've done a bit of research online and found that you cannot use variables to create logins and the like. One person suggested a stored procedure or dynamic SQL, whereas another pointed out that you shouldn't use a stored procedure and dynamic SQL is best.

Create Script To Create/Refresh Identical Database

I've tried searching for anything but haven't had any luck as of yet. I guess I don't even know where to start or what to look for.

Grant CREATE VIEW, CREATE PROCEDURE ...

Apr 12, 2006

Hi,

I have currently a problem with setting up the permissions for some developers. My configuration looks like this.

DB A is the productive database.

DB B is a kind of "development" database.

Now we have a couple of users call them BOB, DAVID, ...

who are members of the db role db_reader and db_writer for the productive db a but they should be allowed to do nearly everything on db b.

Therefor I added them to the db role db_owner for db b.

For testing purposes I tried to "CREATE" a view TEST as BOB in database B but I received the error message

'Msg 262, Level 14, State 1, Procedure Test, Line 3

CREATE VIEW permission denied in database 'b'.'

I cross checked the permissions on db level and I even granted all available permissions on db level but nevertheless I receive this error message.

What's my mistake?

Of course it worked fine when I give them sysadmin rights but then they have far too much permissions.

Regards,

Stefan

Create INDEX Within CREATE TABLE DDL

Jan 27, 2006

Hi Minor and inconsequential but sometimes you just gotta know: Is it possible to define a non-primary key index within a Create Table statement? I can create a constraint and a PK. I can create the table and then add the index. I just wondered if you can do it in one statement. e.g. I have: CREATE TABLE MyT (MyT_ID INT Identity(1, 1) CONSTRAINT MyT_PK PRIMARY KEY Clustered, MyT_Desc Char(40) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT MyT_idx1 UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED ON [DEFAULT])which creates a table with a PK and unique constraint. I would like (pseudo SQL):CREATE TABLE MyT (MyT_ID INT Identity(1, 1) CONSTRAINT MyT_PK PRIMARY KEY Clustered, MyT_Desc Char(40) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT MyT_idx1 UNIQUE INDEX NONCLUSTERED ON [DEFAULT]) No big deal - just curious :D Once I know I can stop scouring BOL for clues. Tks in advance

Convert Mysql Create Script To SQL Server Create Script

Mar 29, 2008

Hi guys

Just a quick one. I have some create scripts that were created for mysql and i am wanting to convert them to a

SQL Server create script. I am just wondering if anyone knows of any utilities or codeplex projects, etc that can perform the convert process.



The script is fairly basic but it is not fully compatible but i have a lot of them thus why i want to automate the process. The majority of the script is just table create statements like the following:





Code Snippet
-- -----------------------------------------------------
-- Table `dbo`.`Staff`
-- -----------------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `dbo`.`Staff` (
`StaffId` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
`IndividualId` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 ,
`PositionId` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 ,
`EmploymentStartDate` DATETIME NULL ,
`EmploymentEndDate` DATETIME NULL ,
`SupervisorStaffId` INT NULL ,
`TerminatedEmploymentReasonId` INT NULL ,
`DeletedFl` BIT NOT NULL ,
`CreateDateTime` DATETIME NOT NULL ,
`CreateUserId` INT NOT NULL ,
`ChangeUserId` INT NOT NULL ,
`ChangeDateTime` DATETIME NOT NULL ,
`VersionNum` INT NOT NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY (`StaffId`) ,
INDEX Individual_Staff_IndividualId_Ref (`IndividualId` ASC) ,
INDEX Lookup_Staff_PositionId (`PositionId` ASC) ,
INDEX Staff_Staff_SupervisorStaffId_Ref (`SupervisorStaffId` ASC) ,
INDEX Lookup_Staff_TerminatedEmploymentReasonId (`TerminatedEmploymentReasonId` ASC) ,
CONSTRAINT `Individual_Staff_IndividualId_Ref`
FOREIGN KEY (`IndividualId` )
REFERENCES `dbo`.`Individual` (`IndividualId` )
ON DELETE NO ACTION
ON UPDATE NO ACTION,
CONSTRAINT `Lookup_Staff_PositionId`
FOREIGN KEY (`PositionId` )
REFERENCES `dbo`.`Lookup` (`LookupId` )
ON DELETE NO ACTION
ON UPDATE NO ACTION,
CONSTRAINT `Staff_Staff_SupervisorStaffId_Ref`
FOREIGN KEY (`SupervisorStaffId` )
REFERENCES `dbo`.`Staff` (`StaffId` )
ON DELETE NO ACTION
ON UPDATE NO ACTION,
CONSTRAINT `Lookup_Staff_TerminatedEmploymentReasonId`
FOREIGN KEY (`TerminatedEmploymentReasonId` )
REFERENCES `dbo`.`Lookup` (`LookupId` )
ON DELETE NO ACTION
ON UPDATE NO ACTION);







Thanks for the help

Anthony



Note: i know if you have a mysql database you can go from one to the other, but i specifically need to take these mysql create scripts and convert them to sql server create scripts and there are a LOT of them i.e. more than 1000 script files that each contains a couple of hundred table create statements.

Is The Operation CREATE MINING STRUCTURE And CREATE MINING MODEL Really Useful?

Aug 17, 2006

Hi,

I've tried those two operations in the Management Studio.
Though we can create a mining structure and mining model in Management Studion,
but we cannot process the analysis-service database.

(1) I create only a mining structure through CREATE MINING STRUCTURE.
No error reported. But if I process the analysis-service database in Management Studio I always get error

'Error : The '<mining_structure__name>' structure does not contain bindings to data
(or contain bindings that are not valid) and cannot be processed.

I then tried to create it by creating and running an XMLA script. It was successful.
However, it's much harder to learn XMLA.

If any of you created an analysis-service database in Mgt Studio, and create a mining
structure in the same place using DMX script, can you process the database?

(2) Is there any use of CREATE MINING STRUCTURE operation without binding
to any table? Examples I saw so far did not show relating it to do. In my experience
processing the analysis-service database with that mining structure is doomed to fail.

(3) Is there any way we can create mining structure through CREATE MINING

STRUCTURE operation in Management Studio and use RELATED TO clause

to bind it to any Relationship to an attribute column (mandatory only if it applies), indicated by
the RELATED TO clause

(4) If this is the fact, is there any use of CREATE MINING STRUCTURE operation?
If we use BI Dev Studio, it's much easier to use the wizard.

(5) I found I cannot create a mining model inside a mining structure through operation
CREATE MINING MODEL. If you call that operation, you end up having a mining
model and a mining structure with the same name. I found that in order to create a
mining model inside a mining structure you have to call operation ALTER MINING
STRUCTURE ADD MINING MODEL. Is it true this is the only way?

Thank you,

Bernaridho

Create Table From Text File, Extract Data, Create New Table From Extracted Data....

May 3, 2004

Hello all,

Please help....

I have a text file which needs to be created into a table (let's call it DataFile table). For now I'm just doing the manual DTS to import the txt into SQL server to create the table, which works. But here's my problem....

I need to extract data from DataFile table, here's my query:

select * from dbo.DataFile
where DF_SC_Case_Nbr not like '0000%';

Then I need to create a new table for the extracted data, let's call it ExtractedDataFile. But I don't know how to create a new table and insert the data I selected above into the new one.

Also, can the extraction and the creation of new table be done in just one stored procedure? or is there any other way of doing all this (including the importation of the text file)?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Create New Db

Aug 17, 2004

Greetings,
Using a server base database called Respond (fe) and Sql server 2000 as a (be), I was trying to create a new db. Instead of designing from scratch, I was thinking to copy an existing Respond db, delete existing data, and modify it to fit my new requirements. I'm new to sql server db and would like to know
1. How to delete data from the table (be).
2. How to perform an automatic backup daily (or may be every other day) and how to check if the backup is doing what it was suppose to do in sql server 2000.

Thank you in advance,
