How To Decrease The Size Of Data File ?
Jul 30, 2007Hello Guys,
Just wondering if someone can help me decrease the size of mdf and ldf files. In the past production database "NewUniverse" had been allocated space of 100 GB for mdf file and 8 GB of ldf file. However the data file has only used 30 GB of data. But now due to disk space related reason, I tried to decrease the datafile size from 100 GB to 40 GB. But I am not able to do it.
Any help in this regard would be appreciated.

How To Decrease The Size Of The Transaction Log Daily?
Jan 23, 2008
I have a database that the transaction log grows about 1 GB per day. I would like this size was decreased daily. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Some friends told me that after the Full backup that is done daily, I should perform a backup of transanction log with option to truncate and after, make a shrink in the database. That is exactly what should be done?
Thank you,
Best Regards,

Does DB Size Decrease When I Delete A Huge Table ??
Jan 15, 2004Hi,
My DB size (Right click on DB Name, Data Files tab, Space Allocated field) was 10914 MB.
I delete a huge table (1.2 million records * 15 columns).
I checked the db size again. It didnt change.
Shouldn't it decrease because I delete a huge table ??
Transact SQL :: Database Size Does Not Decrease After Dropping All The Tables
Oct 15, 2015I have a database consisting of two main tables and 12 sub tables.
This was leading to increase in database size. So we thought of storing the sub tables data in the main tables in form of xml  in a column of varchar(2000) type.
So we created a new database that only had 2 tables and we stored the data of the sub tables in the new column of the main table.
Surprisingly we saw that the database size increased rather than decreasing .
SQL 2005 Resize Initial Log Size: MODIFY FILE Failed. Specified Size Is Less Than Current Size.
Sep 4, 2007
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?
Log Backup File Size Not Matching Log File Size
Apr 15, 2008I have a log file that is approximately 50 GIG. I backed up just the log and the file size of the .bak is 192 GIG . Why is this? Shouldn't it be closer to the 50 GIG.
Normally I wouldn't let log grow this much. But we are in process of getting new server up and running and don't have backups going yet. They are working on getting that up and running this week.
So I did a log backup to give me back some log space for now but was concerned when I saw the size of the .bak file.
When I view media contents of the backup device it shows one tranaction log back up and size of 192 GIG.
What is up with this. I know in SQL 2000 the log backup files where never this big. they were about the size of the log itself.
Any ideas?

Apr 14, 2015Here are my scenarios:
We have an application with replicated environment setup on sql server 2012 . Users will have a replica on their machines and they will replicate to the master database. It has 3 subscriptions subscribed to the publications on the master db.
1) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with no sql server on it. After the initial synchronization(used replmerge tool) the mdf file has grown to 33gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studion . Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 84 gb with little empty free space available.
2) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with sql server 2008 on it. After the initial synchronization(used replmerge tool) the mdf file has grown to 49 gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studio , Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 90 gb with 16 gb free space available.
3) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with sql server 2012 on it. We have dropped the local database and recreated the local db and did the initial synchronization using replmerge tool. The mdf file has grown to 49 gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studio , Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 90 gb with 16 gb free space available.
Why it is allocating the space differently? This is effecting our initial replica set up times.

Restoring BAK File Increases Log File Size
Sep 5, 2007
We have 2 SQL Server 2k5 servers running the same build - 9.0.2047 . When I backup any database from one server and attempt to restore it to the other, the log file generally increases by 100 fold. It errors out after I try to restore a 100MB db and it tries to create a 9.8GB log file. This happens both when I use the GUI to restore and when I restore from a T-SQL script. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Can Decrease To Accomodate Contents Not Working For Subsequent Pages?
Feb 13, 2008This is an example of my data:
Col1 Col2 Col3
1 LONGDESCRIPTION1 111
1 LONGDESCRIPTION1 222
1 LONGDESCRIPTION1 333
1 LONGDESCRIPTION1 444
2 LONGDESCRIPTION2 XXX
2 LONGDESCRIPTION2 YYY
2 LONGDESCRIPTION2 XYZ
2 LONGDESCRIPTION2 999
This is an example of what I want my report to look like (ill put row numbers to help identify)
Col1 Col2 Col3 Row Num
1 LONGDESCRIPTION1 111 1
222 2
333 3
444 4
Subtotal Col3Sum (PAGEBREAK)
2 LONGDESCRIPTION2 XXX 5
YYY 6
XYZ 7
999 8
Subtotal Col3Sum
The Settings:
I'm currently using a single TABLE DETAIL ROW with HIDE DUPLICATES in Col1 and Col2.
The LONGDESCRIPTION field can be expected to take 2 row heights worth of space because it wont fit.
I've also got CAN INCREASE TO ACCOMODATE CONTENTS and CAN DECREASE TO ACCOMODATE CONTENTS selected.
The Problem:
When Printing/PrintPreviewing Page1, the Height of Rows 2/3/4 ARE THE CORRECT SIZE (only 1 row high, meaning that can decrease to accomodate contents works).
BUT when Printing/PrintPreviewing Page2, the Height of Rows 6/7/8 FOLLOW THE HEIGHT of ROW 5 (two rows high, meaning that can decrease to accomodate contents DOES NOT WORK).
Rows 2/3/4 has the same Row Height as Row 1 ONLY ON PAGES after Page1.
Rows 6/7/8 has the same Row Height as Row 5 ONLY ON PAGES after Page1.
Can decrease to accomodate contents does not seem to be working for Pages after page 1.
