Use Backup Compression On Few Servers
Jul 26, 2015I am wanting to use backup compression on a few sql servers (2008R2 and 2012). I have never touched compression before and always just gone with the default.I use Ola Hallengren's scripts to do the backups which, if not specifically specified, will use the server default.Backups (FULL and LOG) have been happening successfully on these servers for years.SQL won't care that the previous backup in the set was uncompressed or that the hourly transaction log backups previously taken were uncompressed?Restore statements (T-SQL) will be identical?From everything I am reading it is simply a case of setting the configuration and acting like nothing changed but I just wanted to be 100% certain.1 of the servers is a SharePoint backend.All of the backup files from all servers are picked up by Commvault backup system.

Feb 11, 2015I have huge table, often I need to query the table on the whole; ie., data may required at any part of the table. So I think of to compress the table with the aim of reducing I/O.
1. is that really suitable for this requirement? If So which compression is good (Row or page )?
2. Or is there any other alternate to reduce the I/O (Except Indexing)?
3. Pros and cons ?
SQL 2012 :: Check Size Of Database After Implementing Data Compression Across All Tables
Dec 4, 2014I found it pretty interesting. I checked the size of a database, before implementing database compression across all the user tables in a database. And Post implementation of compression too I checked the size of the database.
I did not find any difference. But if I expand the table and check propetires->storage and I can see that PAGE compression is implemented across all the tables, but no compaction in the size of the db. It still remains the same.
SQL 2012 :: SSMS Object Explorer Lock Timeout When Running Compression Script
Jan 21, 2015ALTER TABLE [dbo].[TableNameExample] REBUILD PARTITION = ALL
WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE)
The table is 110 GB, so will take time to compress. But it is one table in a database with 60 tables. Why would executing this statement, cause lock timeout on Object Explorer in SQL Server Management Studio? Users cannot drill down objects in this database without getting lock timeout.
When I cancel the compression script, users of SSMS can access objects in this database again from the GUI. Why does compressing a specific table affect access to all tables metadata? I cannot find anything on the internet but I am sure this has happened to other people.

SQL 2012 :: Error (backup Failed To Complete The Command BACKUP LOG) In Event Viewer
Aug 23, 2013On the SQL Server the Event Viewer shows the same messages and errors every evening between 22:05:00 and 22:08:00. The following information messages are shown for every database:
"I/O is frozen on database <database name>. No user action is required. However, if I/O is not resumed promptly, you could cancel the backup."
"I/O was resumed on database <database name>. No user action is required."
"Database backed up. Database: <database name>, creation date(time): 2003/04/08(09:13:36), pages dumped: 306, first LSN: 44:148:37, last LSN: 44:165:1, number of dump devices: 1, device information: (FILE=1, TYPE=VIRTUAL_DEVICE: {'{A79410F7-4AC5-47CE-9E9B-F91660F1072B}4'}). This is an informational message only. No user action is required."
After the 3 messages the following error message is shown for every database:
"BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP LOG <database name>. Check the backup application log for detailed messages."
I have added a Maintenance Plan but these jobs run after 02:00:00 at night.
Where can I find the command or setup which will backup all databases and log files at 22:00:00 in the evening?

Backup And Restore Of A User's Default Database
May 17, 2007Hello.
I am trying to perform a backup and restore of a user's default database. the user- "myuser", was created with a default database. I have backed the user database and tried to restore it in different ways and I always get the same error when trying to connect with the user after restore:
"Cannot open user default database.Login failed (error 4064)".
It happens if I don't delete the user before restoring the database.
If I try to delete the user before restore and create it afterwards, when I try to set the default user database to the same database I get the error:
"user, group or role 'myuser' already exist in the database"
And when I try to delete the user from the restored database (in order to recreate it) I cannot, because the user's schema is connected to objects in the database.
Can anyone help?... How do I restore??
Thanx,
Nili.
Default File No For Backup Set In Restore Database
Dec 30, 2007I am confused regarding why the default behavior of this option is to use file no 1 if the option is not specified? If I take two backups on different days, weeks, months, etc. and write them to the same Backup set, the second and most recent backup by the way gets the higher file number (position) as one would expect. What is incomprehensible to me is why the decision was made to restore the oldest backup from the backup set if you do not specify with file no? Seems like common sense that I would NEVER want to restore the oldest backup by default and would most-likely always want to restore the most recent backup by default!
If anyone has suggestions on how I could suggest that the behavior of this option be changed, I would appreciate it, as this has caused me much pain.

How To Change The Default Backup Data Directory In SQL Server 2000?

I had SQL Server 2000 installed like below:

Default data directory = D:
Default log directory = D:
I found out that the data is stored in D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLdata and backup is done in D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLackup
However, Microsoft says we should never put the ..ackup and ..data folders in the same partition.
My question is: How can I move the path of the backup directory?
I checked the registy but this is what I found:

..DefaultData=D:

SQL Server 2012 :: How To Script Default Value
Mar 24, 2014What the difference is, if any between the following two ways of creating a table with a column that has a default value (see the 'Deleted' column):
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Customer] (
[ID] INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Name] NVARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
[DELETED] BIT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0)And
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Customer] (
[ID] INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Name] NVARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
[DELETED] BIT CONSTRAINT [DF_Customer_Deleted] DEFAULT((0)) NOT NULL)
And is there any argument for doing one over the other?

SQL Server 2012 :: Possible To Tell Whether Function Passed A Value Or Used Default Value
Apr 22, 2015I have a function that accepts a date parameter and uses getdate() as its default value. If a date is passed in, I'm going to have to find records using the datediff method based on input. If no date is passed, I am going to bypass the datediff logic and search for records based on a column called "is_current" which will reduce the query time.
However, I don't know how to tell if the date value in the function came from an input or was the default.
SQL Server 2012 :: Default Value For Boolean Parameter
Sep 23, 2015I have got a stored procedure with a parameter on a boolean field. When the parameter is passed down I must retrieve records according to the boolean value. That is if it is true retrieving records with the true in that field, if it is false retrieving records with false. And if no parameters is passed down just retrieve all records either with true or false. I have done something similar with integer fields and it works but in that case I wasn't able to make it working.
See at the following sample I am expecting when executing the 3rd time my below to return 4 and it returns 0
CREATE TABLE #temp
( Id int, Name char(30), YesNo bit )
INSERT INTO #temp (Id, Name,YesNo)
Select 1, 'a', 0

SQL 2012 :: NewSequentialID - Error Validating The Default For Column
Oct 8, 2014Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.2100.60 (X64) Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7601: Service Pack 1)
we are using the default of newsequentialID() as the key on some tables and getting the error
Error validating the default for column xxx
When first saving the table if the value is entered as newsequentialid() the save works but on any subsequent design change I get the error.
If you click Yes to continue it works fine.
The value that is in there once its saved shows up as (newsequentialid()) if you change it back to not have the outer parenthesis it saves without issue.

SQL 2012 :: Updating A Column By Default Based On A Rule?

time_recorded DATETIME DEFAULT GETDATE(),

When a record is inserted I like the duration column to be computed.This should happen only after the first record to the table has gotten inserted.You might say a trigger would be the best.. Ok then, show me the syntax.
Or I am thinking can we write a user defined function that will compute the value for the duration column.
--By default, I would like to update the duration column as follows:
--It should record the number of seconds between the last insertion ( You can get that time from the time_recorded column from the previous record and the current time can be obtained from the getdate() function )

Apr 2, 2004Hello,
I have been wanting to compress my database. I am not really sure how this is done. I was looking on Enterprise Mangr. and if you right click on the db and go to all tasks, there is an option to shrink database. Is this the way you would compress your database, or are there other ways of doing this?
Thanks for all the help.
