why it is bringing the database into single user mode ?
I have a database that got set into single user mode. Unsure the reason or who might opened it. I am trying to reset it, but I am having problems. I am trying the following from http://www.kodyaz.com/articles/alter-single-user-multi-user-mode.aspx to kill the connections. So I can then switch it back to multiple users.
DECLARE @DatabaseName nvarchar(50)DECLARE @SPId intSET @DatabaseName = N'Works'DECLARE my_cursor CURSOR FAST_FORWARD FOR SELECT SPId FROM MASTER..SysProcesses WHERE DBId = DB_ID(@DatabaseName) AND SPId <> @@SPIdOPEN my_cursor FETCH NEXT FROM my_cursor INTO @SPIdWHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0BEGINKILL @SPIdFETCH NEXT FROM my_cursor INTO @SPIdENDCLOSE my_cursor DEALLOCATE my_cursor
Which gives me the following error message when ran.
Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 13
Line 13: Incorrect syntax near '@SPId'.
Our company has several SQL Server 7 databases. One of them has now on two occassions, set itself to 'Single User' mode. I am completely baffled as to what can be causing it.
There's no jobs set up to do it.
There's no stored procedures programmed to do it.
The SQL Server Log shows that a DBCC CHECKDB ran at 18:00:37.73 and that users attempted to and couldn't log in from 18:01:01.95 onwards.
There is a maintenance plan set to run every two hours that does a backup, integrity checks, so it fired the CHECKDB.
Any ideas please?
Thanks.
while recovering it prompts a message 'the system administrator must have exclusive use of database to run the restore operation'.
now,how to do it?
how to make database to use exclusively when it is connected to an web based aplication.
thanks.
Hi!
I have a problem with databases that are left in single user mode after transaction log backup.
I have a database maintenance plan job that backs up the transaction log and checks data and index linkage every hour.
Sometimes the job fails and when I look in the report file it says that it has tred to put the database in single user mode and failed because the database is in use and then in the next step it says that it cannot perform the operation because there already is a user in the database.
Why is the database put in single user mode?
What can I do to avoid finding my databases in single user mode?
Below is a part of the report file:

Hello ,
Is it possible to do the backup of SQL server instance in a Single user mode ?
What is the recommended practice ?
Thanks in advance,

I put the database in emergency mode, then I executed Checkdb, it shows no errors. The database status is still EMERGENCY and when I try to bring it online, it says he database is in single-user mode, and a user is currently connected to it. There is one processes which is accessing the database, i try to kill it, but it is not going. I am not able to set database to multi user.

I would like to add database to single user mode to enable broker. So, i have tried this:
ALTER DATABASE myDb SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
ALTER DATABASE myDb SET ENABLE_BROKER
ALTER DATABASE myDb SET MULTI_USER
But the query works more than half an hour then i have stopped it. i guess it has infinite loop, I get also many of this messages:
Nonqualified transactions are being rolled back. Estimated rollback completion: 0%.
There is no other transaction also there is no other user connections. So, what happens?
Recently we had multiple production failures because one database was in single-user mode. I am trying to recreate this scenario to write a script that will kick out that connection that was holding database in single-user.In SSMS window 1 I run the following code:
use master
go
alter database test
set single_user
with rollback immediate
[code]....
Yes, it shows one record, but the database name is master, not test. And indeed, I run it from the context of master. Also tried sp_who, sp_who2, sys.dm_exec_requests - nothing works. For dm_exec_requests it shows nothing because it does not run at the current moment.Any other solutions to catch this SPID with a script?
Secondary replica database(setup in async mode) of AlwaysON went in "restricted mode" during weekly reindex operation.
So I have tried below steps
1) Executed following statement on the same secondary replica database where the issue exists
alter database <DBNAME> set multi_user with rollback immediate
but it failed with the error saying "The operation cannot be performed on database "dbname" because it is involved in a database mirroring session or an availability group. Some operations are not allowed on a database that is participating in a database mirroring session or in an availability group. ALTER DATABASE statement failed."
2) Primary database is multi_user but still tried following command on primary replia database(thinking it will replicate)
alter database <DBNAME> set multi_user
but no luck. The secondary alwaysON database shows (synchronizing) as the alwaysON is set in async mode but the command doesn't replicate across secondary
so we are left with the only option to re-setup alwaysON but I want to avoid it as database size is huge..
any other options or am I missing anything?

If one is regularly taking backups of system databases, when does it become necessary to rebuild the master database. I am looking for a situation where rebuilding the master is preferred to restoring it from backup.

Sometime during the night last night some user account permissions were "lost". Am I right to think that restoring the master database would be the way to go? We have a 2 node 2012 cluster and I stop the cluster resource and start the db in single user mode from the active node. Somehow the sharepoint farm is still trying to connect so I can't get logged in single user. What method could I use to stop users from connecting when I don't have access to the sharepoint farm.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am working on a Login migration issue. I have the Master database from the original database, that I have attached as a User Database, call it OriginalMaster. I also renamed the mdf and ldf files, before attaching, just in case.
I want to select the logins from the OriginalMaster, and using sp_help_revlogin script all the Logins out. I know there were many logins in that database. But what I am seeing, are all the Logins from the Current Master database. Which are only 7 Logins.
How can I select the logins, or script out the Logins from the OriginalMaster database?
I have a Sql Server 2005 instance that was upgraded from 2000. The compatibility mode of master is still set to 80. Can I change this to 90?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have a particular database sat on SQL Server 2012 box along with about 20 other databases.
What I require is a method/Script/Audit that will simply track anyone who logs (successfully / unsuccessful) into this one particular database on the server (The single database is the key as the end user does not want information on any of the other databases that sit on the server), it also has to log time the attempt was made and it must track the logins via SQL Server or the application itself that is attached to the database.
While working with a vast variety of support projects, i find a sql design where all the fields in a single form (say about 100 fields which are dump data as they are not related to any reports and searching criteria) are dumped in a sql database column in a XML format. See below an example
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><FormBuilder><ClientID>0</ClientID><SiteID>0</SiteID><IncidentType></IncidentType><IncidentCategory></IncidentCategory><IncidentSubCategory></IncidentSubCategory><CreatedBy>2</CreatedBy><CreatedOn>Wednesday, April 02, 2014</CreatedOn><ModifiedOn /><ModifiedBy /><Section SectionID="ASD" SectionDisplayName="ASD" ColumnType="1" IsDeleted="0" SectionPosition="1"><SectionField FieldName="Bro" Section="ASD" ModuleID="0" Length="" PickData="" ChkData="" RadioData="" ListData="" FieldType="Text" Checked="false" ColumnType="1" IsDeleted="0" CoulmnOrder="0" FieldID="1" IsPrimary="" IsMandatory="" SystemMandatory="" RowPosition="1" FullRow="" /></Section></FormBuilder>
Just want to know the comments how far is this design feasible.....
What are the pros and cons of such a design...
Where we should use such type of db design where are the fields are dumped in a single column...
Why would I see high CXPACKET waits on a database instance with only one CPU? Since the server only has 1 CPU parallelism can't be used, or are I'm missing something here!?

I tried to run the SQL in single user mode by executing sqlservr.exe -m.
The execution starts in a DOS window but apparently stops at one point. The SQL Server will run in single user mode but when i tried to restore the master db, the restoration process stops and the SQL server stops. Is there any process I left out? I think the execution of single user mode is incomplete. Please help.
Actually, I found exactly the same problem was posted year ago, but there was no solution.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Where can I find out about SQL Bugs -- such as the one in subject.
Any help regarding subject would be awesome.
Thanks
At the moment some of the databases on my systems drop themseleves into single user mode over the weekend. Has any one expierienced this or does any one know how I could monitor it to find out how it is doing it.

I'm trying to restore the master database. I can't seem to start the SQL Server in single user mode.
Through the command prompt
1. net stop MSSQL$AIMS
2. C:Program FilesMS SQL ServerMSSQL$AIMSBinnsqlservr.exe -c -m
It runs saying that it's in single user mode etc etc.
When i open enterprise manager and try to restore the database, it comes up in a prompt saying i need to put it in single user mode
I have been trying with no success to start my SQL Server in single user mode and login.
Here's the scenario:
I've got a one node cluster with SQL Server 2000 installed. I changed the startup parameters of SQL Server to reflect the following:
-c
-f
-m
I have disabled SQL Server Agent so it doesn't start when I bring SQL Server online. But when I do bring SQL Server online, I'm not able to connect at all. I keep getting the "only one administrator can log on at one time".
There is no one else trying to log on and SQL Agent is disabled.
What is the scoop? Has anyone seen this? And if so, how did you address it? I'm trying to restore master and need to get this donesooner rather than later.
Thanks!
