What would be the best way to have the database run the following command when the logfile reaches a certain size?
BACKUP LOG kingjohnor WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY
GO
USE kingjohnor
DBCC SHRINKFILE(kingjohnor_log,1)
Thanks in advance for help : )
I have sql server 2000. I copied a database from one server to another. I have one table that has a full-text index. When I transferred over the database, the index still existed, but was not populated. I made sure the path for the file is pointing to a new correct location. I did "start full population". It only populated one entry @ 1MB. On the old server the index is 100MB with more than 3 million records.
I tried rebuilding, re-creating, and it all works, but when I run "start full population", it only populates 1 record. I double checked the table in question and it has over 3 million records and proper primary key.
How do I resolve this.
Hi! Please help with the following:Our disk space is limited. I set the database recovery model to"FULL", and backup transaction log every hour between business hours.But the disk is always full because the transactions log growth. Doyou think increase the frequency of transaction log backup or backuptransaction 24 hours instead of only business hours will solve theproblem?Thanks!!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a transaction log which is 1 Gb and only has about 40 Mb free. When I run DBCC loginfo I find the first active log dates back to the middle of August. Does any one have any suggestions on the best way to approach this situation. How can I query the transaction log to find out what the old transactions are? I was going to use the detach database, rename log, attach database to shrink the log but don;t want to do this incase there is active data in the log. We are doing hourly log dunps.
Thanks

Hi:
We are running SQL 6.5 & SMS 1.2 in the same server. And we're having problem with the SQL server that error log 1105 appreared.
SQL inidicated msdb and tempdb log size were full. I used dump trans with no_log but ISQL response:
" This command did not return data, and it did not return any rows". Then we recovered the SMS data space available is 0 mb.
I expanded the SMS database but the data space still shown 0 mb. Restart and reboot did not helped. I used DBCC Checkdb but
it did not show any error. Please any advice or suggestion are appreciate!

Problem with Msdb
error 1105 can not allocate space in sysbackupdetail.
msdb has 1.0MB of database space available and 1.97MB of log space.
I intended to expand the database but must first expand the device. the available space for the device is -703. So I can not adjust and expand. Any ideas. My hourly dumps appear to be functioning if you view them ny expanding the device but tasks show them as failing.
Hi,
My Transaction log has 0% Log Space available. I have performed a dump transaction with no_log but to no effect. I have also extended the log size from
100MB to 200MB and this has not made any inmpression either after several dump database statements also.
The Data Device was 500MB and I extended it to 800MB and again performed a backup. Has anyone any idea how to recover from this situation ?
I can make queries on the data fine but the several backups(and Truncate log) I have made are still not creating any space for my Transaction log.
Please help !
Thanks in advance,
Alan

Hi,
I am using a cursor in my stored procedure(sql server 2000). If the table which i am using has 20000 records it works fine. If the table got around 50000 records I got the following message from the server.

Hi there,
When I run my client program against a database, am getting the error
"Cannot allocate object '327634423' on tempdb..syslog full...use alterdatabase etc"
I ran dump transaction with no_log..
When I checked my database size & log size there are plenty of size.
but the program didn't work.
At last I increased the size of tempdb from 2mb to 20mb. Then my problem was ok. Is it advisable to increase the size of tempdb? I didn't find any documentation on this. Is there some other way to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Suresh

How do i empty transaction log? create another file and delete the other? or use dbcc shrinkfile or dbcc shrinkdatabase, w/c both im confused too.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi there,
I'm still fairly new to SQL server and I've just ran into a problem when dropping some tables from my DB as my transaction log has become full. I looked at books online and it basically said to backup the log so it will also truncate the log. However I've ran out of disk space on my data drive so can't take a backup.
Is there a way to just truncate the active log to shrink the size?
Hope you can help??
Thanks

Today, one of our backups failed due to the transaction log being full. I expanded the transaction log and then the backup completed normally. For a short term resolution, I increased the maximum allowed size on our transaction log files.
We are doing a database backup only as follows:
backup database xxxxx to xxxx_data with init
I did find a note stating that the transaction log will eventually become full if doing a transaction log backup only. We do not generate a lot of transactions so I had not seen a need to backup the log during the day. The full database backup is done daily.
My question is, in order to permanently resolve this error do I have to:
- take a transaction log backup as well. Should I take it take right after the full database backup or at some later point.
- do I have to schedule/run the shrink database command.

I have a big transaction log took over all the disk space, I know I can backup the log to free the space but my backup drive is on the same drive. Is there any other way to clean the Transaction log without backing up?

Hi,
I have a name field that has fullname in it and i need to parse it to firstname, lastname, middle initial and suffix.
I used the below query to parse the Last Name and first name.
SELECT
SUBSTRING([FullName], 1, CHARINDEX(' ',[FullName]) - 1)AS LastName,
SUBSTRING([FullName], CHARINDEX(' ',[FullName]) + 1, LEN(FullName)) AS FirstName
FROM CustomerTbl
There are middel initials and suffix present in the full name. How do i parse the middle initial and suffix.
The Sample Name that appear in the table:
JONAS VICKY ==> Format without Middle Initial or suffix
MAYES MARY T ==> Format with middle initial
MCGEE, III CLIFTON ==> Format with suffix
Pls advise
Thanks
