SQL Server 2008 :: Setting To Not Rollback A Failed SSIS Package That Inserts 100 Million Records?
May 20, 2015I have a pretty simple SSIS package that fast loads a 100 million record table into a SQL Server 2008 table on a daily basis. This normally runs fine and completes in about 1 hour. As this is perhaps one of our largest running SSIS packages, about once every 2-3 weeks this SSIS will fail/drop connection. Once it fails, the large number of records will start rolling back. This rollback process can take 1+ hours so I cannot even restart the failed SSIS package immediately. This is a problem.
I am looking for a solution or option so I do not have to wait on that rollback to restart this particular, long running SSIS package. Is there an option/setting to leave the partial data set committed and not rollback? Then I could just restart the SSIS package immediately or set it the SSIS to auto-restart 1 time on failure. The first step in the SSIS does a truncate of the destination table.
SQL INSERT 1.6 Million Records
Jan 27, 2006I am currently working on a simple page to insert 1.6 million UK postcode records into an SQL server table. The table has three columns for the postcode, longditude coordinate and lattitude coordinate. The data is sourced from a pipe (|) delimited txt file and inserted into the database using a FOR loop. The problem I have is that the page will hang after inserting only 10,000 records, the page displays either an invalid View State error or a page cannot be found error.
Now I assume the viewstate error stems from the fact that there is a form on the page which simply contains a button to execute the script and a few labels to show the progress. But without the form and associated viewstate the insert still fails to complete.... any ideas?? Would I be better running this on a thread or should I just do it in stages and be patient. I have now modified the page to read the database on load and pick up from where it crashes?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIndexing A Table With 80 Million Records
Mar 26, 2004i have a directory database with approx. 80 million records. i am feeding the database with bulk_insert. Indexing one of the fields took about 8 hrs. After indexing when i run queries with the indexed field the response time is under 1 sec. However if i run select queries with like on non-indexed fields it takes more than 2 mins. So i decided to index 4 other fields in the database and it looks like the indexing process is going to run for 2 days.
i am a novice in SQL database design and i am not sure if this is the best way to index the table. i am just using create index. Any suggestions / advice welcome.
Fastest Way To Update 20 + Million Records
Mar 19, 2008Hello,
What is the fastest way to update 20million records in our database.
I have tried to do a simple update statement like this:
update trail_log with (tablockx, holdlock)
set trail_log .entry_by = users.user_identity
from users
where trail_log.entry_by = users.user_id
but it take 10 plus hours to run since it cannot commit the transactions until the very end. So was was thinking that I need to commit in batch like after 50K but that is slow as well.
Set rowcount 50000
Declare @rc int
Set @rc=50000
While @rc=50000
Begin
Begin Transaction
update trail_log With (tablockx, holdlock)
set trail_log.entry_by = users.user_identity
from users
where trail_log.entry_by = users.user_id
and trail_log.entry_by not like '%[0-9]%'
Select @rc=@@rowcount
--Commit the transaction
Commit
End
go
I have let the above statement run for 1.5 hours and it only update 450000 rows. Any ideas...
Maybe I'm doing it wrong. Please Help!!
Efficiency: 40 Million Records Script.
Oct 12, 2007Hi all,
I have a sql script that updates records in a table with 40 million records.
There is some functionality in the script that could be put away in functions for code reuse/elegance.
Functions would cause execution overhead.
What else could I use besides functions that would allow me the code reuse and not compromise the execution over head? Is there any thing like includes in TSQL that would allow me to do so?
TIA..
Free Text Search For 2 Million Records
Apr 23, 2007Hi
I have a new client with an existing system that has just over 2 million business listings in one table. Each business listing is associated with one business category.
* Company Table (around 20 fields):
companyID
companyName
categoryID
state
postCode
etc.
* Category Table (5 fields)
categoryID
categoryName
etc.
We are using MSSQL 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services
A free text search needs to be performed on the companyName and categoryName limited by region (state and or postcode).
1) What kind of response times should I expect for the free text search (I have not used the free text search before)
2) How should I index the companyName and categoryName so they are both used in a joined query? i.e. Do I just configure the free text search index on each field separately and it should work?
Any suggestions appreciated.
Best Regards

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Compare Tables With More Than 4.9 Million Records?

SQL 2012 :: 1.5 Million Records Into Temp Table
Sep 23, 2014I come from a web based world were loading 1.5 million records into a temp table is suicide. I’m doing more data warehouse stuff now and I was looking into optimizing a buddies proc and noticed he was loading 1.5 million records into a temp table. We had a discussion about it because being from a web world I was drastically against it. He on the other hand didn’t feel it was an issue being it gets called once maybe twice a day. The tempdb is set to autogrow and it is on a different drive than all the other databases on the box. It has one ldf and mdf. He’s creating an index on the table after load. Why we shouldn’t be loading 1.5 million recs into temp table?
View 5 Replies View RelatedJoin 2 Tables With More Then Million Records With 2 Parameters
Apr 8, 2008Hi
I have 2 tables with more then million records in each and I have to perform full outer join.
The problem is that the join clause contains 2 different parameters (int and string) like this:
Select *
From a full outer join b
On a.cli = b.cli OR a.reference = b.reference
Because of the OR in the clause and the million records the query is infinite. If I change to one rule only then it works fine.
How can I join these 2 big tables with 2 rules?
Thanks

Transact SQL :: Updating A Table With 45 Million Records
Jul 21, 2015I am trying to update a large table which consists of 45 million records , it is taking more than 2 days to the update , below is my approach
1. The table has only one clustered index and no other indexes on the table.
2. I am updating in batches say 20000 record-wise.
3. Changed the recovery mode to bulk logged and auto-growth size is set to 300MB and there is enough space in my disk for transaction log .
But still the query is running slowly.
Fuzzy Grouping: Any Success With &&> 3 Million Records?
May 18, 2006I have tried to process > 3 million Fuzzy grouping records on two different servers with no success. 3 mill works but anything above 4 mill doesn't. Some background:
We are trying to de-dup our customer table on: name (.5 min), address1 (.5 min), city (.5 min), state (exact). .8 overall record min score.
Output includes additional fields: customerid, sourceid, address2, country, phonenumber
Without SP1 installed I couldn't even get a few hundred thousand records to process
Two different servers - same problems. Note that SSIS and SQL Server are running locally on both
The higher end server has 4GB RAM, the other 2.5 GB RAM. Plenty of free disk space on both
SQL Server is configured to use 2 GB of RAM max
The page file is currently at 15GB
After running a number of test on both servers trying different batch sizes etc. the one thing I noticed is that it seems to always error out when SSIS takes over and starts chewing up all the available RAM. This happens after the index is created and SSIS starts "warming caches". On both servers SQL Server uses up about 1.6GB of RAM at this point while SSIS keeps taking over RAM until all physical RAM is used up.
Some questions:
Has anyone been able to process more then 3 million records and if so what is your hardware configuration?
Should we try running SSIS from a different server so it has access to the full amount of physical RAM? (so it doesn't have to fight for RAM with SQL Server)
Should we install Win 2003 Enterprise Server so we can add more RAM?
Any ideas why switching to the page file might be causing errors?
Thanks!!

Checking To See If A Records Exists Before Inserting - 3 Million + Rows
Aug 21, 2007I have 1+ CSV files (using a foreach loop) which I'm doing a lot of transform work on and then inserting into a SQL database table.
Each CSV file usually contains about 2 days worth of data (contains date stamps) - somewhere in the region of 60k records per day.
The destination table currently contains 3 million+ rows and will get bigger.
I need to make sure that before inserting into the destination table, the data doesn't already exist.
I've read the following article: http://www.sqlis.com/311.aspx
While the lookup method works, it takes ages and eats up memory as it caches the 3m+ records before running for each CSV. Obviously this will only get worse as the table grows in size.
To make things a little more efficient what I'd like to do, is first derive the dates I'm dealing with in the current file - essentially storing the max(date) and min(date) in variables. Then in the lookup SQL use those vars, to reduce the amount of data that needs to be brought into the transformation to check against before inserting into the destination table.
Lookup SQL eg. SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE Date BETWEEN varMinDate AND varMaxDate.
Ideally I'd use an aggregate transformation and then use the subsequent output from that either in the lookup query or store the output in vars, but I don't think you can do that and I get the feeling I'm approaching this with the wrong mindset.
Any thoughts would be great!
T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Table With 3 Million Plus Records Taking Half A Minute?

Here's the example below. My table has 3.1 million rows. I have tried using the DISTINCT and the GROUP BY but both ways to select the data takes about half a minute to run. I'm wondering if there is a way to increase performance. Users are ok with this time since the process runs overnight but improving it won't hurt. I do have a clustered index on these fields but that doesn't seem to improve any.

Help On Updating 1.3 Million Rows On The Production Server
May 4, 2000I need to update about 1.3 million rows in a table of mine.
I am getting the data from one of the columns of the same table and
updating the new column.
I am doing this using a cursor which I have put in a stored procedure.
As this is a production table which users might be accessing.It is a
web based application and I can't slow the system down.
So I am willing to run the stored prcedure during off peak hours.
However, do I need to put this in a transaction?
If I did put it in a transaction what type of isolation level should I
opt for?
Data integrity is very important for me and I don't mind to compromise
on the performance.
I am doing this because one of the columns which has "short description"
entry is has become too small for business purposes and we want to increase it's
length from varchar(100) to varchar(150).
As this is SQL 6.5, I can't increase the lenght of the column.
So Iadded a new column and will run the stored proc.
What precautions are to be taken?
This is on a high priority basis and very important too.
Thanks in advance...
Stored procedure code:
USE DB_Registration_Dev
GO
IF EXISTS (SELECT NAME FROM SYSOBJECTS WHERE NAME='usp_update_product' AND TYPE='P')
DROP PROCEDURE usp_update_product

DECLARE @short_desc varchar(100)
DECLARE @prod_id int
DECLARE sdesc_curs CURSOR

OPEN sdesc_curs
FETCH NEXT FROM sdesc_curs

Support For SQL Express2005 My Host Provider Does Not Provide Support?
Dec 5, 2005Reader Community
I've just started hosting my newly created Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition web site. Unfortunately the Login group membership functions will not function correctly. Having contacted the web service hosting provider, They replied: "We do not support SQL express2005. The only way to use the extra functions of ASP.NET2 such as group membership is if it is using an SQL 2000 database to connect to. "
Is it possible to design web sites with Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition that store membership details on an SQL 2000 database?
I've just paid £88 approx. $140 for a years subscription, have I chosen the wrong web service hosting provider?
Should I have designed the web site with a better web site design software tool that also makes designing membership login functionality easy, just as Microsoft Visual Web developer 2005 express edition?
Look forward to all comments?
