One of our engineers here by mistake deleted some very important data without any begin trans block and we need the data back very badly.. We have not closed the session as of now.. The engineer was logged in as sa to the DB.
Does anybody know of a way to rollback SQL Server 2005 databases back to SQL Server 2000? Is there a way of doing it without resorting to Copy Database Wizard? I love to find a way of attaching a SS 2005 database to a SS 2000 instance without any issues.
I recently upgraded to SS 2005 and I am very unhappy with the SS 2005 and I want to rollback to SS 2000, which was a lot more stable. I am having several major issues that are affecting my whole company's day-to-day operations and the managers are not happy. Some of the issues include night time batch running very sluggish for no apparent reason. This is a biggest problem because it only occurs once or so a week and causes a disturbance with the daily activities when the night time processing isnt completed on time. The rest of the time, the batch processing runs great, even a little better then on SS 2000. I don't believe it is a matter of my application needing to be retuned because if that was the case, then why isn't it running sluggish every night? Also, it's never the same day that the sluggish behavior occurs. If it was occurring on the same night, then I would have something to investigate within our application, but it doesn't. Another issue that I am having involves a night time job that restores a copy of the production database to the Data Warehouse server to be used for updating the data warehouse. Again, most of the time it runs great (~2 1/2 hours), but once or twice a week, it goes stupid and takes 6 1/2 hours for no apparent reason. Again, it is not happening the same day either, which could give me something to invesigate. On SS 2000, this same job ran flawlessly. Never I did I run into situation that the database restoration took that long to run. Even another issue involves a SQL Server Agent Job that was put into suspended state. What's a suspended state and how can I get it out of suspended state? I can find no information about suspended state in BOL. I did a Google and nothing came up. If this suspended state was put in for security reasons, great, but then tell me how I can remove the suspended state. I am also not happy with the fact that I can't get accurate information about the queries that are actively running at that particular moment. In SS 2000, when I noticed high CPU usage on the server, I would run the sp_who2 active stored proc and it would show me all the active thread and how much CPU it was consuming. I would then find the running threads with the highest CPU numbers and investigate the query and see if we could improve it. Now in SS 2005, I get in the same situation and run the sp_who2 stored proc, and there is no smoking gun. All of the active threads are showing very little CPU usage, which I am very suspect of. What the heck happen to sp_who2? I looked at some of the other ways of looking at running processes (i.e... sys.sysprocesses) and they don't appear to be giving the information that I need.
I am very unhappy and I just want to roll back to SS 2000 and wait a couple of years before I upgrade to SS 2005.
We have installed SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 4 recently and have had various issues with some of our Stored Procedures. (which we didn't have with SP 3)
We are looking at our options regarding rolling back to Service Pack 3.
Can this be done ? & If so, is there a method documented on how to do this ?
We have a high volume database with 1000's of users and 1000's of procs. Our application enforces a 20 second timeout on all connections.
We can't adjust the 20 seconds - this is a business rule.
It sometimes happens that a proc does not complete within 20 seconds and then times out halfway though. This causes data inconsistency where 50% of the code was saved to the DB and 50% was not - seeing that a stored proc is not transactional and therefor does not roll back the code.
We can't put the code in a TRANSACTION in order to roll back when a time out occurs, because this causes exclusive locks on the tables.
So I guess my question is: Is it possible to undo/rollback all the code in a proc when a timeout occurs - without using a TRANSACTION? And if a TRANSACTION is the only way - how do I avoid the exclusive lock and blocks?
I have created a DTS Package that does the following: 1 Delete all data from table 1 (SQL Task) 2 Import Data from .csv file into table 1 (Data import) 3 insert records from table 1 into table 2 when they dont exist in table 2 (SQl Task)
This all works fine, but now i want a rollback function in step 1 and 2. So when Step 1 is finished and something goes wrong i want the deleted data back.
I'm performing a stored proc that has 4 inserts. I only want the inserts to complete as a batch. If one fails, I want to rollback the whole transaction. Does anyone know the syntax?? :)
I want to insure that each of my insert statements in a stored proc are rolled back if any of the inserts fail. I already have the below statement with error handling but is this correct? It seems to me that all the steps should be made part of an entire transaction so if one part fails then it all fails. Can someone help me w/ the syntax of this??

I have a stored procedure that calls another stored procedure with thefirst stored procedure opening a transaction:BEGINSET XACT_ABORT ONBEGIN TRANSACTIONdoes various updates/insertscalls 2nd stored procedure to proccess updates/inserts common to manyother stored proceduresdoes more various updates/insertscommitENDThe problem I'm having is that within the 2nd stored procedure is thatif it encounters an error, it does not roll back the entiretransaction and I finish up with missing records in the database. Amusing this in the 2nd stored procedure:if(@TypeId1 = @TypeId2 and @Line1 <'' and @Line2 <'')beginRAISERROR('error message', 16, 1)RETURNendWhat could the problem be? From what I've read, it seems as thoughyou can't have an open transaction within one sp that calls another spand it maintains the same transactoin? Is this corrrect?I tired the following too, and I still couldn't get it to work. Anyideas anyone?************ sp 1 ***********Declare @AddressError char(3)SET XACT_ABORT ONBEGIN TRANSACTIONexec Sp2@AddressError OUTPUT,@variable1,@variable2,etc. etc************** sp 2 *****************@AddressError char(3) OUTPUT,if(@TypeId1 = @TypeId2 and @Line1 <'' and @Line2 <'')beginRAISERROR('error message', 16, 1)RETURNendSET XACT_ABORT ONBEGIN TRANSACTIONprocess updates/insertsSet @AddressError = 'no'Commit******** back to sp 1************If @AddressError <'no'BEGINrollback transactionENDcontinue doing updates/insertscommit
I have a case where I read from SQL Server DB and write to a flat file.
I have one Data Flow Task inside which I have a OLEDB source component that feeds rows to a script component that writes to a flat file. I have set the txn attributes for the container to "Required" and "Read committed" . But I find that rows are written to flat file even when I throw an exception from my script component. Question is how do I prevent rows from being written to the flat file if error/exception happens. I want the whole process to be in a single transaction.
Ive got an insert statement that fails, and below that I have code like the following:
IF @@ERROR <> 0 BEGIN -- Roll back the transaction ROLLBACK -- Raise an error and return RAISERROR ('Error INSERT INTO Address.', 16, 1) print 'test was here' RETURN END
However, there is now rollback and the inserts below it are going through.
Goal: set security on running specific stored procedures based upon user login and databse access
I have some DBA's who want to retain full control of databses / stored procedures as they now have but I want to restrict or rollback some of the changes that were implemented when the sql 2005 was set up. The sql 2005 EE is in a clustered system and uses Mixed Mode Authentication.
An example of what I want to restrict: The DBA's want to be able to view and kill processes for the different databases that are installed under their instance. The problem is other customer databases are also under the same instance.
Is their a way I can combine or have the stored procedure sp_lock only show the processes for the databases they have access to based upon their login? My concern is they will kill a process and affect the other customers.
hi, i want to create a disaster recovery site, to which i can fail over (not automatically), and also to have the option to return the database to a point in time? for example, if my principal server fails in 17:00, i want to have the option to make the mirror server available for users from 17:00 (or at least close to that time), and also to be able the return to the data from 16:00 (in the mirror site). Is it possible, and what is the best way to do it?
I would appreciate a bit of advice here. There is a largish complaint here regarding a cutomer who has entered data in 1 of our online forms, but we suspect this was then overwritten by a cached form she also had open. Anyway to cut a long story short i need to roll back the database to a point in time.
Not something i have ever had to do.
The row where the id field is equal to 3352, and this would have been written to the database at 14:58:36 on 08-aug-2005. This was over written by the data in row with id 3380 at about 11am this morning, now is this is a live database on a webserver so i cant compromise its uptime as it get written to about 3 times a minute, so how should i go about this?
I have a page that runs a transaction correctly after a button click. I want to allow someone to click a button that rolls back the transaction, after the transaction runs on the first button click. I can also successfully roll back within the first button click. I'm getting a NullReference error when trying to access SqlTransaction.Rollback() outside the button click. If SqlTransaction.Commit() completes without error can SqlTransaction.Rollback() be called after? I tried making 'trans' a more global variable and it still gave me the error. Button Click 1: Dim trans As SqlTransaction trans = connection.BeginTransaction() try 'run SQL Statement trans.Commit() Catch e As Exception trans.Rollback() throw e end try
I am trying to create an aggregate table where the value is a rolling sum. Type a on date 1 is the sum of the values in the main tbl. Type a on date 2 is the sum of values for type a on date 1 and date 2. Is this possible? I have been trying update t sql with sum(case where date <= date) statements but can't get it to run.
create table main_table (type nvarchar(10), date int, datavalues int); insert into main_table values('a', '1',3); insert into main_table values('b', '1',4)
I need to provide a minimum value over a 12 hour time range of data. I'm struggling with performance issues due to the amount of data. Currently I log about 100 devices reporting once per minute into a table. Also about once per minute I need to pull the minimum value reported for each device in the last 12 hours. Currently I'm maintaining a separate table with entries for just the last 12 hours and just performing a Select Min(Temp) Where DeviceID=x, but it already holds about 700,000 records at any given time. The number of devices will increase substantially and this will no longer be viable.
Sample Table ID DeviceID Temp InsertDate 1 10 55 04-28-2015 8:00 AM 2 65 74 04-28-2015 8:00 AM 3 44 23 04-28-2015 8:00 AM 4 10 87 04-28-2015 8:01 AM 5 65 65 04-28-2015 8:01 AM

What I am trying to do is parse the data set to find out when we have more than three like movements ex. 3 to 10 within ANY rolling 72 hour period. I have looked at the SQL Window Functions OVER with a ROW | RANGE subclause, but I can't find out how to tackle this rolling 72 hour business.
Hello,I'm trying to create a simple back up in the SQL Maintenance Plan that willmake a single back up copy of all database every night at 10 pm. I'd likethe previous nights file to be overwritten, so there will be only a singleback up file for each database (tape back up runs every night, so each daysback up will be saved on tape).Every night the maintenance plan makes a back up of all the databases to anew file with a datetime stamp, meaning the previous nights file stillexists. Even when I check "Remove files older than 22 hours" the previousnights file still exists. Is there any way to create a back up file withoutthe date time stamp so it overwrites the previous nights file?Thanks!Rick
New to Database Mirroring and I have a question about the Principal database server. I have a Database Mirroring setup configured for High-safety with automatic fail over mode using a witness.
When a fail over occurs because of a lost of communication between the principal and mirror, the mirror server takes on theĀ roll of Principal. When communication is returned to the Principal server, at some point does the database that was the previous Principal database automatically go back to being the Principal server?
I need to run two reports each of A5 Size to run back to page and print on single A4 paper means in 1st half Sale bill will be printed and in second half Gate Pass Will Be Printed both report will be on same page and size and shape should be maintained. How to do it.
Hello,I am hoping you can help me with the following problem; I need to process the following steps every couple of hours in order to keep our Sql 2000 database a small as possible (the transaction log is 5x bigger than the db).1.back-up the entire database2.truncate the log3.shrink the log4.back-up once again.As you may have determined, I am relatively new to managing a sql server database and while I have found multiple articles online about the topics I need to accomplish, I cannot find any actual examples that explain where I input the coded used to accomplish the above-mentioned steps. I do understand the theory behind the steps I just do not know how to accomplish them!If you know of a well-documented tutorial, please point me in the right direction.Regards.
I'm writing a query that will be calculating a number of business performance measures including the following...
Average Stock: This is calculated by taking the actual stock value of the product category per month and dividing it by 13 if we have over 12 month's history, or if a new product, then by the number of months we have had it in stock for.
Cost of Goods Sold Annualised: This is an average figure for the year of the sold landed costs for the product category over a 13 month period if we have over 12 months history. If it's a new product, then it's for the number of months we have had stock.
My question is, how do I tell the query to go back 13 months from the current month?
We have an inventory of devices we service and wish to show the total numbers of active devices per month going 12 months back. How would I go about this?
trying to develop a report that shows the sum total for each month during a specified date range.
I have parameters asking for the start date and end date of the date range, the report needs to show the months in between this date range.
One of the fields in the dataset is durationminutes which I need to sum for each month then divide by 60 to show hours. I then need to show the total of each month in a bar graph (with each month along the x axis).
If anyone can shed some light on how I am going to do this it would be greatly appreciated.
Hi All, I wanna pull a 12 month rolling data and donno how to do that, can anybody help ? Problem: lets say if i run the query today i should get data between oct-3-2006 and oct-3-2007, my main colums is monthyear which is date datatype. Appreciate your help. Thanks Chinna
I'm trying to figure out how to this do with TSQL and preferablythrough joins rather than by using cursors or temp tables. I havemultiple time spans for multiple individuals that I would like torollup together where they don't actually have a gap in coverage.ID StartDate EndDateZ000001 01/01/1996 9/30/1996Z000001 10/01/1996 12/31/1998Z000001 01/01/1999 04/30/1999Z000001 01/01/2000 12/31/2000Z000001 01/01/2001 12/31/2001I would like to be able to "roll these up" in order to reflect theactual time frames so that it would like this:ID StartDate EndDateZ000001 01/01/1996 4/30/1999Z000001 01/01/2000 12/31/20014/30/1999 to 01/01/2000 is, of course, a legitimate break where therewas a date difference of more than one day.Thanks in advance for any ideas.
Is database mirroring compatible between SQL Server 2005 (Standard Edition) SP1 and SP2? I currently run SP1, and will shortly be introducing a failover partner. I'd like to have the failover partner installed as SP2, start the mirroring, manually failover, then upgrade the existing server to SP2 as well.
Is this a supported upgrade method, or will I need to upgrade the existing server to SP2 before setting up database mirroring? The SP2 installation instructions and readme file don't appear to mention mirroring at all (at least not that I can find).
I'm trying to create an accumulating field based on a set of records. I need to fill in daily amount balances that accumulates on a daily basis. But I can't seem to figure out how to create a total for the daily dates and have it add on additional amounts if needed.
Now I already have a table with the dates created via a stored procedure. I have a set of dates from 5/5/2000 to 5/8/2000. So that results set should look like this:
I'm trying to creating a rolling sum that accumulates the amount field for each daily record and if a new amount is listed, then roll that amount into the total. If you have any suggestions about how to perform this rolling total via TSQL or SSIS, I would greatly appreciate it.
