Reg:Tables Data Changes Auditing
Sep 1, 2007
Hi,
I have more than 1100 tables in my databse. From existing application data will insert into Database tables. I need to track the tables module wise when data inserting/Updating into these tables.
One way is, I have to write the triggers for each table[1100 tables with auditing]. In my case this is not possible to write like that.
Is thesre any other solution to find the updated,inserted tables when data is changing from application without doing bulk changes.
Regards
Hanu

Hello
I am more of a reporting person, recently I was asked to create stored procedure for an upcoming ASP.NET
application.
We have a problem that we are facing and any suggestion would be very helpfull.
The problem is that we have like 8 differtent tables each with 10 to 15 columns in it.
The front end application has pages with save , update , delete button which are insert,update,delete
for each of the 8 tables
i.e they save , update , delete these 8 tables
They want to a way to Update , this audit table which stores information
like ---
Date
User
Table
Column name
Previous column name
new column name
So for each row that was updated in those 8 tables , each column will have the above fields updated as a row of data
Initially we thought about triggers but it will be like 60 triggers ...Is there a better or other way of handling this?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

I am using the SCD Wizard and it is working nicely. Can someone point be to an article/tuorial that would explain how you could create an "audit trail" on the items that may have been changed (type I and II)?
Basically, what I want to be able to do is run a query that tells me what data may have changed. I figured I would have to create an auditkey field in my table which would then link the key to the change detail?

Assume we have 5 columns in a table. while auditing updated data i need to log data except some of the columns.
Create table Test( col1 int, col2 int, col3 int, col4 int, col5 int)
if any of the columns in (col2 and col3) updated, no need to log those changes to audit table; we can achieve this by using UPDATE( col2) or UPDATE ( col3) checking.. But i have to log the changes if any of other columns (col1m col4 or col5) changed along with col2 or col3
...

We have several applications that work with product catalog data. Data is entered and maintained, searched, and reported on. We're using CSLA business objects to create our Biz Objects and our front end apps are ASP.NET pages and web services. SQL 2k5 is our database. Currently all data is done in Factory methods in our business objects using SQL Stored Procedures and UDF's.
We want to start storing auditing and statistics data on our product searches. In SQL 2k we were using SQL Profiler to capture data and storing the information in tables, but it really wasn't very flexible and was difficult to maintain. What we want to do is every time someone submits a search we store the critiera and the results. Every time someone edits a product we want to save the old record. This will allow us to provide historical reporting and statistical reporting to our users.
In our old system the search results table was at about 3 million records. And since we've moved to a web based application we're hoping to save this information asynchronously so our search results or postbacks are not held up by saving this audit data. We were talking about writing logic into our biz objects code but it all seemed a bit slow and difficult to do asynchronously. Then I read a couple posts suggesting Service Broker.
Now we're considering either writing triggers on our tables or adding code to our factory stored procedures to send messages to Service Broker that would save the data into our audit tables but not hold up our business processes. We would be saving to the same database on the same server, but different tables.
Does Service Broker seem like it could be the right tool for this job? There looks like a bit of a learning curve and before I jump in i'm looking for some advice or direction.
Thanks, larry

I am trying to import this years worth of failed logins and last successful login for each user out of the logs using master.dbo.xp_readerrorlog. The script essentially loops through the linked servers I have on my DBA box and reaches out for the log data. It works, but here is the error I am getting on most of our production servers:
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server "AWSCADENCEDB01" returned message "The partner transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions.".
Msg 7391, Level 16, State 2, Line 17
The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server "AWSCADENCEDB01" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
I know how to enable distributed transactions on the servers that error out, but if it is not needed for anything other then my audit script, I doubt the business will approve me turning on distributed transactions at those locations (so I am not even going to ask).
I am attempting to setup a singular audit .rdl with the information I want to review quarterly.
CREATE PROC [dbo].[Import_Login_Data]
AS
IF EXISTS (
SELECT 1
FROM master.sys.servers
WHERE is_linked = 1
[Code] ....

It seems to me there are two common strategies for doing DB audit trails via a trigger:
1. On an update to a row, duplicate that row in another table with
identical rows, except for perhaps the extra columns which represent
change date and changed by. Eg. When there is an update to the Customer
table, record the changes in Customer_Audit.
2. On an update to a row, check which fields were updated. Then in a
common audit table record the table, row ID, field, previous value and
new value of the field.
I'm wondering about the pros and cons of each. More specifically, do
the pros and cons change if you are using an O/R mapper (I'm using
NHibernate.)
Some thoughts on method 1 . It seems nice for an O/R mapper, since you
could have, say, a CustomerAudit Object inherit from your Customer
object and just add the properties change date and changed by. A
problem with this is you're going to add a whole lot of objects - one
for each object which you want to audit. Another drawback is that it
could be difficult to generate a history for a particular property
which was updated. Let's say I want to see the history of changes to
the customer's status. I have to load a collection of CustomerAudit
objects (which could be costly). Then I have to iterate through them
and compare the status properties to generate a history of statuses.
This is a pretty labor instensive method if you compare it to method 2,
where the change is recorded by field, not row.
Some thoughts on method 2. It's nice since the changes are by field,
not row, which (as above) makes generating a history easy. On the other
hand, you can never have a snapshot of a particular object at a
particular point in time. Moreover, I'm not sure how foreign keys would
be handled elegantly. I record that customer.statusID changes from 3 to
6. I'd have to do a seperate join to the customerstatus table to get
meaning for 3 and 6 (which method 1 would do automatically).
Thoughts? Any preferred way to do this with an O/R mapper?
Thanks

Guys,
We looking to audit tables in the database. In the tables auditing needs to be done only on few columns not all the columns. Is there any 3rd party tool available to do it can it auditing be done on columns only with sql server 2005. Trigger doesnt work in this scenario as it works per row it does not say which column in the row was updated/inserted/deleted.
For example in the below employee table, I want to audit(history) only ssn and dob columns - all the updates/inserts/deletes made to this column should be audited.

Hi folks. I am a new DBA and working on taking over several existing MSSQL 6.5 applications.
My company needs to be able to audit the following actions on MSSQL.
login
logout
insert into specific tables
update in specific tables
delete from specific tables
I am looking for a 3rd party product that provides these services for SQL 6.5. I have found Braintree products and they have really nice auditing but for Oracle and not MSSQL. I have also looking into using triggers to build an audit log for me but the applications we are using require periodic updates that would force me to rebuild the triggers. This may cause too much administrativia.
Any Ideas?
Thanks, Aaron

Someone had changed the SA password on one of my servers. I need to find out who did this. Can you tell me if there is any historical information kept on any of the system tables that can tell me who (what machine name) and when (date and time)this was done?
Does anyone have a 3rd party or inhouse developed task/procedure to report this kind of security issues?

I want to log all changes made to a table (only updates, since there will be no deletes or inserts).
I would like to see the user who changed it, the date and time, fieldname, old value, new value.
If more fields are changed during the update, than add more records into the logging table.
What is best practise to achieve this?
Thanks,

You can easily access the windows account name by using the System_User keyword. However, is it possible to get the first and last name of the system_user? If so, how?
