How To Change Initial Log File Size On Mirrored Database
Oct 23, 2015I have a database I need to copy from a Prod server to a Dev server. There is not enough space on the Dev server. In looking at the size of the files on the Prod server, the Initial Size property for the transaction log on the Prod server is set to 100,000 MB though the log is using nowhere near that.
This is a mirrored database so the recovery model is "full". I know that to change the initial log size, I have to put the database in 'simple" recovery model. Is this possible? Can I just:
1. Pause the mirror
2. Switch recovery model to simple
3. Change the initial size property to something smaller.
4. Shrink the transaction log
5. Change the recovery model back to full and resume the mirror?
I honestly don't know if the transaction log is needed on the Dev server. Meaning I may just be able to restore the transaction log to a different location on the server and delete it so that new one is created.
Increase Data File Size Of Database Which Is Configured For AlwaysOn?

I have a requirement wherein the datafiles on both the primary and secondary replica got full, if i add space to the primary database will it automatically get added to the secondary replica or not?

Apr 21, 2014finding the database size from the backup file.I have SQL 2012 backup file, is there any way to find the estimated database size from the backup.I tried restoring , i got an error saying " no space need additional xxx bytes " ...does this error gives the exact space needed to restore ?
One more question....one of the backup file size is 7.2 GB, when i try to restore it ....it throws error saying it needs 292GB extra space while only 100 Gb is available. How come 392 Gb sized database becomes 7.2 Gb .bak file ?
Urgent Need For Problem Of Increase In Database Size For Ntext Type Fields
Jan 22, 2006I had several databases under sqlserver ce 2.0 (in my Pocket PC) which contained ntext fields. The size of the databases varies from 50,000 to 700,000 records. The size of an ntext field is from 4 bytes to 2 megabytes.
When I recreated my databases under sql server 2005 mobile on my desktop using VS2005 (see my post just under this one), I saw a big difference between the old and new database sizes. This problem was mentioned in one of the posts in this forum and the reply was to replace ntext data with ncharvar type.
Since most of my data was longer than 4000 bytes (which is the limit for nvarchar type), I couldn't use this suggestion. Instead, I changed my ntext type to image type and used a GetByte conversion.
No change! The size of the new database is still 50 % larger than the original. Since the difference is around 300 MB, this is an unacceptable thing.
Now, I either wait from somebody to suggest a new solution (apart from keeping the ntext data in a separate binary file and keep index of the records of this file in the records of sql database) or, most preferably, have
Microsoft solve this problem as soon as possible.
Thanks for any help in advance

View 2 Replies View RelatedSQL 2012 :: Restoring Mirrored Database To Different Server Occasionally Fail?
Oct 19, 2015Every once in a while a scheduled restore of a production database backup to a development server will fail with the following error.
RESTORE cannot operate on database 'XXX' because it is configured for database mirroring or has joined an availability group
While it is true the production database is involved in database mirroring, the development server does not have database mirroring enabled. This error tells me something within the backup is telling the development server the database is configured for database mirroring.
However the perplexing part for me is that we only receive this error maybe 5% of the time, if that, and only on a couple of our databases. We have numerous other restores of mirrored production databases to development servers that have never produced this error. So my question is what is causing this error to occur, and why is it not happening all of the time? We get around this error by deleting the DEV database and re-running the restore job.

SQL 2012 :: Existing Replica MDF File Size Increased In Size Than New Replica Install
Apr 14, 2015Here are my scenarios:
We have an application with replicated environment setup on sql server 2012 . Users will have a replica on their machines and they will replicate to the master database. It has 3 subscriptions subscribed to the publications on the master db.
1) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with no sql server on it. After the initial synchronization(used replmerge tool) the mdf file has grown to 33gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studion . Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 84 gb with little empty free space available.
2) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with sql server 2008 on it. After the initial synchronization(used replmerge tool) the mdf file has grown to 49 gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studio , Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 90 gb with 16 gb free space available.
3) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with sql server 2012 on it. We have dropped the local database and recreated the local db and did the initial synchronization using replmerge tool. The mdf file has grown to 49 gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studio , Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 90 gb with 16 gb free space available.
Why it is allocating the space differently? This is effecting our initial replica set up times.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIncrease Segment Size
Oct 6, 1998Hi all,
I encountered error 1105 (Can`t allocate space for object .....) while running a query.
I had dump transaction with no log sucessfully and retry running my query but
still encounter error 1105.
I had checked my database size and following are the info:
Datasize : 2500MB Database size available : 753.39
Log space : 500MB Log space available : 500MB (this was acheive after
after dump trans. twice. it was around 480MB before)
Thus looks like the data segment is full!!!
I expanded the size of the disk device D on which the segment device A is on by 50MB. When I did a sp_helpdevice D, the expansion is reflected.
Next I run sp_extendsegement, A, D.
However running sp_helpsegment A doesn`t show that segment A is expanded.
Please help!!! How do I expand the size of the segment? (without creating a new disk device, is it possible)
Any other way to resolve this problem?
Also how to check if a particular segment is full? eg. the %usage of data/log segment.
Thanks in advance.
How Do I Increase Font Size In 6.5?
Jan 27, 1999I seem to remember that the font size and type can be controlled in SQL Server 6.5 and the process controlls the fonts displayed
throughout the program - Enterprise Manager, Query Tool, etc.
I have just re-installed 6.5 and the fonts are way too small.
Can anyone tell me how this is done?
Thanks.

Increase Transaction Log Size
Oct 22, 2007
Hi,
How can I increase the transaction log size of my sql server 2005 database? i can execute the shrink and backup log which can shrink the .ldf file to 1MB. However, since my dts involves a lot of inserts and updates, the my transaction log grows to 700MB in the middle of my dts execution. How can i increase the transaction log size maximum capacity to probably 1.5GB just so it can accommodate my full dts execution?
BTW, this is my commands to shrink the log file:
DBCC SHRINKFILE(<dbname>_log, 1)
BACKUP LOG <dbname> WITH NO_LOG
DBCC SHRINKFILE(<dbname>_log, 1)

DB Size Increase From SQL 2000 To 2005
Feb 23, 2008A few months ago a customer moved from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. The db wasbacked up on SQL 2000 and restored to SQL 2005. The application using thisdata works on SQL 2005 but takes no advantage of new features. The db onSQL 2000 was about 2.9GB, now on SQL 2005, it is 16.5GB. The db is set toSimple recovery so trx log is only 2mb. The mdf file is 16.5GB, ManagementStudio shows only 5mb free space. There has not been a huge increase intransactions.One of the largest tables has only added 2,000 rows since the move to SQL2005. Yet the data and index size has jumped from about 400mb to 3.5 GB. Iused the 'BigTables.sql' script found at various SQL sites:www.databasejournal.com/img/BigTables.sqlAny ideas why such a large increase?Thanks

Is It Possible For A Table To Increase Size When Deleting Records?
May 24, 2007No transaction log involved, only the table itself.
Use sp_spaceused "table_name" to check the space used.
It seems the table size actually increased from the beginning to the middle of deletion, at the end of deletion, its size decreased.
Recovery mode set to be simple, autoshrink turned on.
The tables tested are about 50MB ~ several GB in size, all have the same behavior. The size increased about 5%~10%.
Since the deletion is called from another software, I want to know if it is possible for SQL Server to have this behavior or it is absolutely the 3rd party software's issue
Thanks!
SQL 2012 :: How To Estimate Log File Size
Sep 16, 2014I was having interesting discussion on estimation of log file with a fellow collegue who happens to be quite knowledgable as well.
He told me if we identify the most frequently hit tables for a database and then (sum their sizes * 1.5) for OLAP we get rough estimate for disk space to be allocated for log file.
