MSDB Is Too Big
Dec 18, 2007
My MSDB is too big [about 14 GB]. When I closely looked all tables, here is what I found -
Top 3 biggest tables are -
sysmaintplan_logdetail - rows- 124923 - data - 13375456 KB
DTA_Tuninglog - 181658 rows - data - 163248 KB
sysmail_mailitems - records - 14227 data - 126208 KB
I am not a DBA, so if any one can explain in simple terms how I can cleanup this maintenance plan log detail without increasing the size of tempdb? How can I stop this database growing in the future?
I have only a gig of space left on that drive.
Thanks in advance

I know that msdb is used to manage the job schedulers in sql server 7.0 ( job agent ). Does this (msdb) like other databases, where I can control its size, shrink it or expand it.
IF am backing up the msdb, and I errased all jobs scheduled in sql agen. Can I restore all the deleted Jobs by restoring the msdb.

Does anyone know how to fix this message?
Message: Could not insert a backup or restore history/detail record in
msdb.dbo.sysbackuphistory or sysrestorehistory.
I ran DBCC CHECKDB (msdb) and no errors were reported.

I have a problem with my MDSB database. After my nightly reboot, I received an error in my Lof File stating: Error 9001: Cannot file log device for msdb database. I looked and saw the msdblog.ldf, so I am alittle confused. I ran a dbcc checkdb, dbcc newalloc and dbcc updateusage on msdb, but I did not get any errors. I added an additional log file to try and fix it, but nothing has fixed it. I am perplexed because all my scheduled backups are failing.
Any additional advice would be helpful.
Thank you,

I want to move the physical location of the msdb database on a SQL server. However I cannot drop the database with the drop database statement, even setting it to dbo use only and single user mode. I get an error message saying the database is in use. Obviously I do not want to reinstall the server. The reason I want to move it is because it is located in the default dir on the C: drive which is running out of space.
Any ideas.....

1. Back up the msdb from the sql server which has the jobs
2. restore msdb into the sql server where I need to create the jobs.
I got an error message, 15089 cannot change the 'single user' option of a database while another user is in the database.

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 !
when i am trying to restore MSDB database from a disk backup it is giving an error saying
"Database in use.System administrator must have exclusive use of the databse to run the restore operation".
But i am not using msdb anywhere.when i see the processes under current activities i see an application named sqlagent-alert engine using the database.even after killing this process it reppaears and stops the restore operation.
so i stopped sql server agent and did the restore operation.It worked.
so is it necessary to stop sql server agent while restoring msdb?may i know the logical reason for it?

How would you set up a task run by user without sacrificing the alias permission on msdb (SQL 6.5)?
Situation:
I have set up a task for runing replication by a user with the alias permission on msdb in order for the user to run the task. And I do not want to grant the alias permission to the user for the security reason. But if I set it up by granting only the sp_runtask permission to the user on msdb I always got the message like "You cannot perform this action on a task you do not own."
Please share your workaround. Thank you ahead of time

The sysbackupdetail table in the MSDB database at our SQL6.5 installation has grown to over
50,000 rows, since we back up 25 databases every day. I've enlarged MSDB once because
of a space problem, and I'm wondering whether I can just delete the older entries in this table
to prune it, without dire consequences. MSDB has other history tables, and I'd like to handle
them all the same way.
If I mess with these tables, will the sky fall on me?

Hi,
I am trying to build a test environment for our production server. I backedup and restored all my databases. I had to copy the jobs too, so I backedup and restored msdb database. When I try to change any of the jobs, I get the following message.
"Error 14274: Cannot add, update, or delete a job (or its steps or schedules) that originated from an MSX server."
I have no clue what this message is about. Can someone please provide me with some clues about how I can modify my jobs and get my test environment to work.
Thanks,
Rob

After implementing a recommendation to perform dbcc checkalloc before nightly backup, I began getting the error below on msdb. Books Online suggests restoring from a known clean backup. We have only been using SQL Server for a few weeks and it seems that all our backups of msdb have the same problem. Is there any way of correcting this problem?
Msg 2521, Level 16, State 1
Table Corrupt: Page is linked but not allocated; check the following pages and table: alloc page#=3584 extent id=3816 logical page#=3816 object id in extent=8 (object name = syslogs) index id in extent=0

I'm running Win2000/SQL2000 on a Compaq CL380 Cluster Server. After a powerdown to do a physical move, the MSDB is now marked SUSPECT. I have tried the stored procedure SP_RESETSTATUS, a DBCC consistency check, and also have restored the database from backup. The database still shows MSDB is suspect. What can I do? We can't get a good backup as long as it is still this way as it depends on the SQL Agent.

I need some data from msdb.dbo.sysjobs and msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory but I need it from a backup file.
I don't need to restore the msdb database, I just need some data from the backup. Everytime I try to restore it under some innocuous name like bills_db it tells me msdb is in use.
Is there a way to restore this db to some other name and retrieve data from it?

I work on a SQL 2000 Standard server that is part of our SBS package. Two days ago we ran a set of MS updates on the server and the residual symptom is that DTS packages, the Import or Export wizard all will not run. The Sql Server Agent service runs under the local system account, however that was true prior to the updates.
The error when attempting to run an import is that the OLEDB connection object is not available. The error occurs when trying to use the Access driver or a DSN. Further investigation indicates that msdb could not be contacted.
Does anyone have an idea as to what might cause this and a workaround?
Thanks,
misdean

Recently we renamed one of the SQL Server 2000 Server from NAME1 to NAME2. In the msdb..sysjobs table the originating_server name is still the old name ( NAME1 ). As SQL server 2000 suports multiple instanaces it will not rename it back to local.
So my Question is If I update the sysJobs table's Originating_Server Column to the new Server Name ( NAME2 ) . Will I have any issues. Because I not able to make any changes to the Jobs as it throws an 14274 Error. I don't want to rename the server back to the original name and do all the process as its given in the MSDN Article.
Thx

All,
Is there any standard roles available to execute the system stored procedures in MSDB? This question is because of the below error, which I got when I tried to Import a SSIS Package to Sql Server. While the error in itself is very clear, I wonder if this is due to the default permissions in Sql Server?
TITLE: Import Package
------------------------------
The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'sp_dts_listpackages', database 'msdb', schema 'dbo'. (Microsoft SQL Native Client)
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'sp_dts_listpackages', database 'msdb', schema 'dbo'. (Microsoft SQL Native Client)
To put it very simple, what all permissions will I need in MSDB if I have to import/work/execute SSIS packages inside Sql Server.
Thanks

Dear All,
after searching continuously for removing the suspect mode of MSDB database, i've found a great article in net.but i dont understand how to proceed. please explain me the steps....
1.Detach the damaged msdb. You can't just detach msdb because you're not allowed to detach system databases. However, you can if you start the server with trace flag 3608. I did this by shutting down the server, navigating to the directory 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBinn' and doing the following: start sqlservr.exe -c -T3608
2.Move or rename the damaged msdb files (msdbdata.mdf and msdblog.ldf in the 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData' directory)
3.Run the instmsdb.sql script in the 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLInstall' directory
4.Shutdown and restart the server without the 3608 trace flag
