Hi,
I'm creating a User Interface to display Sql database Properties, but I cannot find the right query to retrieved the info on database properties.
The status that I get is "ONLINE", but it should be "NORMAL".
Cannot find the right query to get the date of last database backup, last transaction log backup, and maintenance plan, etc..
Please help me [:'(]
I've been asked to provide some information about databases on an sql server.
I can use the following query to provide the names of all the databases:
select * from master.dbo.sysdatabases
What I'm also looking to provide is the current "size" of the database. I'm trying to find a table that I can link to that would provide the database size. I can manually find this number by right clicking on the database from enterprise manager, selecting "properties" and picking it up from the general tab.
This is sql server 2K...
Thanks.
I'm wondering if there is some sql I can run to check properties on a table. This would be used to verify things like data types, allow nulls and default values have been set to avoid mistakes. This could be done manually one table and one column at a time, but it would be a lot easier to look at it in the results window.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat are the differences between the database permissions, which can be granted in the database properties permissions tab (create table, create procedure etc.) and the predefined role db_ddladmin? It seems that the database properties permissions tab includes more permissions than the predefined role db_ddladmin.
Does anybody know the difference in terms of permission?
I have an ODBC connection string that is working fine with the following properties:
Database="XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY"; strangely no server is specified in the string, but it is specified in the ODBC Connection file.
I am trying to do a new server registration in SSMS for this database.However, I don't understand where the network spec is placed.
Under Registered server name I've tried:
YYYYYYXXXXX
When I browse the server for the database instance list, I receive "network path was not found".
I even tried:"XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY" for the registered server name.Same error message.
What am I doing wrong ?
Query #1:select <list of fields>from Cjoin B on C.b_key = B.b_keyjoin A on B.a_key = A.a_keywhere A.o_key = <some value>Query #2:select <list of fields>from Cwhere b_key in (select b_keyfrom Bwhere a_key in (select a_keyfrom Awhere o_key = <some value>))#1 (and other things with the same general pattern) are used inliterally thousands of places in this one client's system, and ismuch nicer to write, but seems to be rather slower than #2. Isthere any way to tweak the tables to tell the system somethinglike "hey, B, whenever you're joined to A, you should seriouslyconsider waiting for A to be filtered down to a manageable levelfirst"? And similarly for C/B.MS SQL 2000, SP3, 6.5 compat mode. These are set in stone untilwe upgrade the accounting software (highly non-trivial).

Hi.
I am trying to look for ways on how to get all the databse properties under each instance.
say I want to view the size, recovery model, physical location, etc.
The sys.database_files is only applicable per database. Is there a query, or a table in master database to get these or store these values?
thanks...
I am trying to find information on Database properties - more specifically, what the 'Space Available' means, because right now when I look at the properties of a database I am setting up, which will grow substantially I am sure, it says the database size is 154 MB and the Space Available is 42 MB. What is the Space Available? What does this refer to and is it going to be restricting the growth of the database? Thanks.

If I set the following three properties when creating a database, do I need to set the same properties when I open the same database later?
sscedbprop[0].dwPropertyID = DBPROP_SSCE_AUTO_SHRINK_THRESHOLD;
sscedbprop[0].dwOptions = DBPROPOPTIONS_REQUIRED;
sscedbprop[0].vValue.vt = VT_I4;
sscedbprop[0].vValue.intVal = 100;
sscedbprop[1].dwPropertyID = DBPROP_SSCE_MAX_DATABASE_SIZE;
sscedbprop[1].dwOptions = DBPROPOPTIONS_REQUIRED;
sscedbprop[1].vValue.vt = VT_I4;
sscedbprop[1].vValue.intVal = 4091;
sscedbprop[2].dwPropertyID = DBPROP_SSCE_ENCRYPTDATABASE;
sscedbprop[2].dwOptions = DBPROPOPTIONS_REQUIRED;
sscedbprop[2].vValue.vt = VT_BOOL;
sscedbprop[2].vValue.boolVal = (a_bEncrypted==TRUE)?VARIANT_TRUE:VARIANT_FALSE;
Thanks!
BTW, why is the max size not 4096?
Due to a network time skew some time ago, all of the databases on an SQL system now have the following information stamped on them..
Within Enterprise Manager (SQL 2000), The "Last Database Backup" timestamp for each database is showing the year 2025.
Our backup system runs incrementally daily and a weekly full. Unfortunately, the timestamp does not seem to be updating as the year is as I guess in the future.
Can anyone advise of a procedure so as I can wipe this time skew date from each of the databases?
Many thanks folks!

Hi all,
I'm using VS2005 + SQL Compact 3.1 and Enterprise Library 3.1 May 2007
I can successfully create a db using pull method, when I try to push back data I got the following SQLCE error:
"Another user has opened the database with different instance-level initialization properties. [ 32 ]"
Before calling the push method I did
SqlCeDatabase eCE = Helper.GetDB() as SqlCeDatabase;
eCE.CloseSharedConnection();
SqlCeConnectionPool.CloseSharedConnections();
SqlCeRemoteDataAccess rda = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess();
rda.InternetUrl = webSynchronizationUrl;
rda.InternetLogin = webuser;
rda.InternetPassword = webpass;
rda.LocalConnectionString = eCE.ConnectionStringWithoutCredentials;
but after the assignment the LocalConnectionString is different from ConnectionStringWithoutCredentials, there are much more ssce parameters.
What I don't understand is:
why I'm getting this error even after closing the connection ?
Since the error report [32] the ssce conflicting parameters shoud be AUTO_SHRINK_THRESHOLD, FLUSH_INTERVAL and MAX_DATABASE_SIZE
I tried to cut & paste the same values from LocalConnectionString into app.config connection string, at first It seemed to work, but now I got the same error.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
Does anyone has query to give all table sizes on a database?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks
I am trying to use the Import Wizard to setup a daily job to import new records based on an ID field (PK). The source database is remote and a replica. I am inserting new records to update my table called the same thing. Both are SQL Native Client
Code Snippet
select *
from [CommWireless].[dbo].[iQclerk_SaleInvoicesAndProducts] as S1
join [IQ_REPLICA].[dbo].[iQclerk_SaleInvoicesAndProducts] as S2
on S1.SaleInvoiceID = S2.SaleInvoiceID
where S1.SaleInvoiceID > S2.SaleInvoiceID
When I parse the query, I keep getting an error message.
Deferred prepare could not be completed.
Statement(s) could not be prepared.
Invalid object name 'IQ_REPLICA.dbo.iQ_SaleInvoicesAndProducts'. (Microsoft SQL Native Client)
Anyone know an easy why to get this to work? Or should I add a create table to verify new records?
Hi and thanks for your help
specifying the default database means what. for instance when I add alog in user and I have to choose a default database. Does it make a difference if the Default database is Master or any other user database name. What is the significant to select Master vs any other database.
Thanks,

Hello!
We are having problems with a single SQL Server where the Server properties will not save, and always revert to the default.
It occurs only on those tabs with "configured" and "running" options at the bottom. Other tabs will keep the settings we custom.
The big problem is with the memory and processor tabs which even when we've made only a single change and stopped and started the service, reverts back to a default.
Any clues - we are logged in as "sa" and have not removed the SA priviledges.
Thanks for any help,
Simon
