Dear friends
We have one problem in our existing system.We are expecting some expert comment on this.We have one corebanking system back end as MS SQL server with IIS server.Our system is always very slow in the peak times of tranasactions.We are planning to optimize this with a short time plan .So pls give some suggestions that our DBA team can implement in a short time with SQL SERVER 2000

Iam using the below query to create a key using the column combinations and a seperator"%" to insert the same in to table my issue is with the perfomance of this query.
This query is returing aroung 6000 records and its taking 11 seconds to return the result.is there any way that i can optimize this query to improve perfomance.Select (Item.ItemCode +'%'+ Product.Name + '%' + Quantity.ID) as Key1 from
Items,Products,QualityPlease advice
Hello,
I have a table with almost 2 mil records. There are two columns (Col1 int, Col2 int). Combination of them is unique. When i run a simple select statement like (select * from tblTableName Where Col1 = 5) with execution plan, cost is extremely high, even with PK(col1+col2). I tried to put clustered index on those columns but execution plan still shows "table scan" instead of "index seek". How can I speed this up ? I use that table mostly for search.
Thank you for help.
I look after a database which is part of a third party CRM product. Theusers of the product complain of intermittant poor performance, thesuspicion is that some more senior users are running their own queries(the product allows users to do this). I've been asked by thedevelopment team to try to capture the details of long running queries.I've looked at the events listed in profiler and can't see one thatwould be useful. Ideally I want to know who is running which query thatis taking longer than x seconds.Any suggestionsTIALaurence

Hello,
In a database here we have a table that is a list of codes. Many other tables in our database have foreign keys to this table (T_TYPE_CODE). The joined column is an integer that is a clustered index on the table.
One of the developers here says that in one of his queries he has to OUTER JOIN to this table 15 times and that the OUTER JOIN is killing performance. He wants to add a record to T_TYPE_CODE that will represent NULL so that any NULL values in the tables that foreign key to this table will use that ID instead of NULL. In this way he could use all INNER JOINs.
To me this seems like a bad idea - NULL is NULL and creating a value to represent NULL will open a whole can of worms.
My question: Is there a performance hit for using OUTER JOINs against this table, considering that the join is on a single column and is a clustered, unique index?
Also, what problems can we expect to run into if we use a
Thanks!

Hello everybody,
We have a web site with about 100 connections per hour.
This site is only for consultation : read only.
We implement ASP on IIS 4.0 and use as often as possible stored procedures with ADO objects on client side (ASP).
We close every objects after they are used.
The site works about 1 hour and then is stopped because inetinfo service is down.
The memory and the CPU on the SQL server machine are quiet at maximum.
'user connections' is to 0 (so 32767 enabled connections).
'locks' is to 0 (so it will give memory dynamically).
The machines are very powerfull : 2 X bi-processor P III 700 Mgz, 512 Mo RAM :
1 for the front-end, the other for the SQL Server.
We think that we can make it work with such a materials.
Thank you very much.

We recently upgraded from sql 2000 to sql server 2005. Our system was developed using Microsoft visual Basic.
Since we upgraded to sql server 2005 our system has been very slow. I suspect that it was because of the new sql 2005 installation that i made.Does anyone know how to solve this problem for me to be able to increase the perfomance speeed of our system again.
It has been stressing me for a while now.

Hi,
In my cube, I used Time Intelligence wizard to create calculated members such as YearToYearGrowth and YearToYear Growth%. But when I try to pull those two items in RS 2005 for more detailed levels, the performance of running MDX dataset is terrible even though my fact table has only 36234 rows of data and I have 6 dimensions (the largest dimension includes 37801 rows).
One thing that I did was removing ALLMEMBERS keywords in the MDX designer but I didn€™t improve much the time it takes to execute a query. Right now, it takes 1.5 minutes to execute may MDX query in RS 2005. Is there a way to improve the performance of MDX query (generated in RS) in RS 2005?
Thanks!
i have a table with 5 million rows (6 months data) .. every month approximately 1 million data is getting inserted..(not
bulk insert) ..table is properly indexed.. There is a stored procedure to generate report based on this table.. (only this table no joins) .. stored procedure do lot of permutations (includes lot of temporary tables ,group by having,count() etc)..
it takes 2 minutes to generate the report.. i want the report to be generated with out taking a second..
should i partition this table??? size of table is 2gb.. i dont know whether this table is a right candidate for partitioning or not.. please help me..
Thanks and regards

Dear ReaderI am trying to design a database. How can I make best Judgement that Indexing (which I am trying to fix during Diagram Desingning process)is ok.I am able to identify the best candidate for the indexing.Below is the details I want to understand:AreaZIPCityCountyDistrictState/ProvinceCountryNow I want the data retrival optimization through Index. (you can suggest another idea, also)Entities Area,...., Country have independent tables.Example:Area_TableAreaID (PK)AreaThey have relationship- one to many- if you go from Country to Area.There is one more table:Location_Table (PK)LocationIDAreaIDZIPIDCityIDCountyIDDistrictIDState/ProvinceIDCountryID(Location_ID is further related to the Address of the contact.)GUI has a single form to enter these details.On a save command details in all the tables -Area to Country- (individually) being inserted.& simultaniously Location_Table is also being inserted with the details.Following is the situation of being queried these tables:(1) GUI user can select an Area than the related details of ZIP .., ..., ...upto Country etc. should be loaded automatically (id it is previously stored by the user entry in the database.)(2) Contacts have to be retrived on the basis of Area, ZIP, .....County. (Necessary Groupings are required )Example:If Contacts are queried Country Wise then the Display should beCountry1State1District1County1City1ZIP1Area1Area2ZIP2City2County2District2Country2Please Guide.SuryaPrakash****************************************** This message was posted via http://www.sqlmonster.com** Report spam or abuse by clicking the following URL:* http://www.sqlmonster.com/Uwe/Abuse...0255a1765491f15*****************************************

(From an exchange originally posted on SQLServer.com, which wasn't resolved...)
To return views tailored to the user, I have a simple users table that holds user IDs, view names, parameter names, and parameter values that are fetched based on SUSER_SNAME(). The UDF is called MyParam, and takes as string arguments, the name of the view in use, and a parameter name. (The view the user sees is really a call to a corresponding table returning UDF, which accepts some parameters corresponding to the user.)
But the performance is very dependent on the nature of the function call. Here are two samples and the numbers reported by (my first use of) the performance monitor:
Call to table returning UDF, using local variables:
declare @orgauth varchar(50)
set @orgauth = dbo.MyParam('DeptAwards', 'OrgAuth')
declare @since datetime
set @since = DATEADD(DAY,-1 * dbo.MyParam('DeptAwards', 'DaysAgo'),CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)
select * from deptAwardsfn(@orgauth,@since)
[187 CPU, 16103 Reads, 187 Duration]
Call to same table returning UDF, using scalar UDFs in parameters:
SELECT *
from deptAwardsFn (
dbo.MyParam('DeptAwards', 'OrgAuth')
,DATEADD(DAY,-1 * dbo.MyParam('DeptAwards', 'DaysAgo'),CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)
)
[20625 CPU, 1709010 Reads, 20632 Duration]
(My BOL documentation claims the CPU is in milliseconds and the Duration is in microseconds -- which I question.) Regardless of the unit of measure, it takes a whole bunch longer in the second case.
My only guess is that T-SQL is deciding that the parameter values (returned by dbo.MyParam) are nondeterministic, and continually reevaluates them somehow or other. (What ever happened to call by value?)
Can anyone shed some light on this strange (to me) behavior?
----- (and later, from me)---
(I have since discovered that the reference to CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in the function argument is the cause, but I suspect that is an error -- it should only capture the value of CURRENT_TIMESTAMP once, when making the function call IMHO.)
I'm running a query, actually its an insert that works when using the TSQL below.
However when I try to use the debugger to step through and using the exact same values as those below I get the following error:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid character value for cast specification

SQL Server 2005 9.0.3161 on Win 2k3 R2
I receive the following error:
"Error: 8624, Severity: 16, State: 1 Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan. For more information, contact Customer Support Services."
I have traced this to an insert statement that executes as part of a stored procedure.
INSERT INTO ledger (journal__id, account__id,account_recv_info__id,amount)
VALUES (@journal_id, @acct_id, @acct_recv_id, @amount)
There is also an auto-increment column called id. There are FK contraints on all of the columns ending in "__id". I have found that if I remove the contraint on account__id the procedure will execute without error. None of the other constraints seem to make a difference. Of course I don't want to remove this key because it is important to the database integrity and should not be causing problems, but apparently it confuses the optimizer.
Also, the strange thing is that I can get the procedure to execute without error when I run it directly through management studio, but I receive the error when executing from .NET code or anything using ODBC (Access).

insert into #temptable

set nocount on
go
if object_id('tempdb.dbo.#t1') IS NOT NULL drop table #t1

[code]....
This succeeds when the invalid column name is a valid column name in the outer query. So in this situation the sub-query would fail when run by itself but succeed with an incorrectly applied filter when run as a sub-query. The danger here is that if a SQL Server user runs DML in a production database with such a sub-query which then the results are likely not the expected results with potentially unintended actions applied against the data. how many SQL Server users have had incorrectly applied DML or incorrect query results and don't even know it....?

Why the query works in query analyser and doesn't work in Reporting Service ?

When viewing an estimated query plan for a stored procedure with multiple query statements, two things stand out to me and I wanted to get confirmation if I'm correct.
1. Under <ParameterList><ColumnReference... does the xml attribute "ParameterCompiledValue" represent the value used when the query plan was generated?
<ParameterList>
<ColumnReference Column="@Measure" ParameterCompiledValue="'all'" />
</ParameterList>
</QueryPlan>
</StmtSimple>
2. Does each query statement that makes up the execution plan for the stored procedure have it's own execution plan? And meaning the stored procedure is made up of multiple query plans that could have been generated at a different time to another part of that stored procedure?

I executed the code successfully and I got a box which asked for "Enter the query string".
I typed in the following: EXEC dbo.SalesByCategory @Seafood. I got the following box: Query attempt failed. Must declare the scalar variable "@Seafood". I am learning how to enter the string for the "SQL query programed in the subQuery_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnQuery.Click" (see the code statements listed above). Please help and tell me what I missed and what I should put into the query string to get the information of the "Seafood" category out.
Thanks in advance,

I have two tables .. in one (containing user data, lets call it u).The important fields are:u.userName, u.userID (uniqueidentifier) and u.workgroupID (uniqueidentifier)The second table (w) has fieldsw.delegateID (uniqueidentifier), w.workgroupID (uniqueidentifier) The SP takes the delegateID and I want to gather all the people from table u where any of the workgroupID's for that delegate match in w. one delegateID may be tied to multiple workgroupID's. I know I can create a temporary table (@wgs) and do a: INSERT INTO @wgs SELECT workgroupID from w WHERE delegateID = @delegateIDthat creates a result set with all the workgroupID's .. this may be one, none or multipleI then want to get all u.userName, u.userID FROM u WHERE u.workgroupIDThis query works on an individual workgroupID (using another temp table, @users to aggregate the results was my thought, so that's included) INSERT INTO @users SELECT u.userName,u.userID FROM tableU u LEFT JOIN tableW w ON w.workgroupID = u.workgroupID WHERE u.workgroupID = @workGroupIDI'm trying to avoid looping or using a CURSOR for the performance hit (had to kick the development server after one of the cursor attempts yesterday)Essentially what I'm after is: SELECT u.userName,u.userID
FROM tableU u
LEFT JOIN tableW w ON w.workgroupID = u.workgroupID
WHERE u.workgroupID = (SELECT workgroupID from w WHERE delegateID = @delegateID) ... but that syntax does not work and I haven't found another work around yet.TIA!
When I run the following query from Query Analyzer in SQL Serer 2005, I get a message back that says.
Command(s) completed successfully.
What I really need it to do is to display the results of the query. Does anyone know how to do this?
declare @SniierId as uniqueidentifierset @SniierId = '85555560-AD5D-430C-9B97-FB0AC3C7DA1F'declare @SniierAlias as nvarchar(50)declare @AlwaysShowEditButton as bitdeclare @SniierName as nvarchar (128)/* Check access for Sniier */SELECT TOP 1 @SniierName = Sniiers.SniierName, @SniierAlias = Sniiers.SniierAlias, @AlwaysShowEditButton = Sniiers.AlwaysShowEditButtonFROM SniiersWHERE Sniiers.SniierId=@SniierId
