I have a table of users including: UserName, Password (comuted col), FirstName, LastName, Address and other details....
I have to keep 10 Recent passwords , so I created another table "ut_Password " (Table2)
This table contains the following columns : Username, Password , and Password_Date.
I searched a lot but could not find something similar in my opinion need SP for it.
- 10 row Max for Password History in table 2 - when user change password it's need to be uniqe and it should not appear last 10 passwords - Each user can have a maximum of 10 lines containing history password table - Most old password deleted and replaced with a new password will enter the correct date (FIFO method first in first out).
Given the following data how do I make a SQL query that returns only 1 row per product?
The returned rows need consist of only currently active products (that is WHERE (DateEffective <= { fn NOW() }). The twist: Sometimes a product will have duplicate DateEffective records. In that case, only return the record created latest because that's the most current data that exists for a product. RowTimeStap is when the record was created.
Example Data: HistoryID ProductID Name Color DateEffective RowTimeStamp (auto-number PK) 1 1 Wheel Red 2/1/2008 2/1/2008 2 1 Wheel Blue 3/5/2008 3/1/2008 3 1 Wheel Orange 3/5/2008 3/2/2008 4 1 Wheel Black 1/1/2010 3/3/2008 5 2 Knob Blue 3/2/2008 3/2/2008 6 2 Knob Green 3/3/2008 3/3/2008
Query should return: 3 1 Wheel Orange 3/5/2008 3/2/2008 5 2 Knob Green 3/3/2008 3/3/2008
The query I've created fails on the twist part. I have to allow duplicate DateEffective to keep a history of changes. Can anyone help?
I am trying to find out CPU utilization from the history using process.%processor time. I am having dual core CPU with 2 numa nodes each having 16 logical cpus bind to it.
how to calculate the CPU utilization using perfmon.I tried to use SQL query which gives CPU history using SQL DMV, but I am unable to get the exact value. Because in between I have used the same querry to capture my CPU usage on the run day, the value on run day and the query which iam tryting to pull out is different. I am using the same query to pull the history data with providing the date.
-- Get CPU Utilization History (SQL Server 2008 and above)
DECLARE @ts BIGINT SELECT @ts =(SELECT cpu_ticks/(cpu_ticks/ms_ticks) FROM sys.dm_os_sys_info); SELECT SQLProcessUtilization AS [SQLServer_Process_CPU_Utilization], SystemIdle AS [System_Idle_Process], 100 - SystemIdle - SQLProcessUtilization AS [Other_Process_CPU_Utilization],
The RECORDSTATUS value of 1 means the record is active. A corresponding record of the same CustomerID, Tier. in startdate chronology, with a value of 0 indicates that the previous record with the status of 1 has now terminated and the startdate of the record with recordstatus of 0 is the start date of the termination of the previous record, or better stated, the end date of the previous record.
What I need to do is re-record the above data the startdate of each terminated record become an enddate for the previous record, minus 1 day, as follows:
CUSTOMERID TIER STARTDATE ENDDATE 123 A 01/01/2013 02/28/2013 123 B 03/01/2013 05/31/2013 123 A 08/01/2014 NULL 456 C 02/01/2014 NULL
I want to give developers access to view SQL Job history, but not let them inhert permission to create local jobs like they get with the fixed server roles.
how can this be achieved? Or can it only be achieved by giving them access to the tables in msdb and querying them?
If there is a history kept somewhere of failover events of a database in an AO group? I have 2 replicas with automatic failover and I'm looking for a history of failovers.
So I have two steps in my job that check conditions and call RAISERROR to gracefully complete the job if those conditions are met (meaning I only want the final step to run in a specific situation). Works great, except for some reason my messages are not making it into the log. It is appending the SQLSTATE, and a default error instead of anything that I'm putting into RAISERROR.
How can I make a copy of an SSRS Report history snaphot to another folder in Report Manager. I have a report that has history snapshots. But want a copy of the report snapshot history in another folder for users to view easier in Report Manager.
how do I get the variables in the cursor, set statement, to NOT update the temp table with the value of the variable ? I want it to pull a date, not the column name stored in the variable...
create table #temptable (columname varchar(150), columnheader varchar(150), earliestdate varchar(120), mostrecentdate varchar(120)) insert into #temptable SELECT ColumnName, headername, '', '' FROM eddsdbo.[ArtifactViewField] WHERE ItemListType = 'DateTime' AND ArtifactTypeID = 10 --column name declare @cname varchar(30)
comparing UNIQUEIDENTIFIER columns..This query returns several rows where the [ReportId] and [LastRunDate] columns are both NULL:
SELECT [c].[Name],[c].[ItemID],[xl].[ReportID] , MAX([TimeStart]) [LastRunDate] FROM [dbo].[Catalog] [c] LEFT JOIN [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage] [xl] on [c].[ItemID] = [xl].[ReportID] WHERE [c].[Type] NOT IN (1,5) -- Not a folder or a data source! group by [c].[Name],[c].[ItemID],[xl].[ReportID] order by 4
However, trying to just list catalog reports with no execution history returns 0 rows, but I'm expecting it to return a row for every NULL [ReportId] from the above query:
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[Catalog] WHERE [Type] NOT IN (1,5) -- Not a folder or a data source! AND [ItemID] NOT IN (SELECT [ReportID] FROM [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage])
I even tried casting [ItemId] and [ReportId] columns in the 2nd query to VARCHAR(255), and still got no rows, but the following queries return 0 rows and 1 row (respectively).
select * from [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage] where [ReportID] = '0BB2209C-7736-46C8-AD02-4614EBA4F0F1' select * from [dbo].[Catalog] where [ItemID] = '0BB2209C-7736-46C8-AD02-4614EBA4F0F1'
To avoid locking/blocking, or in transaction scope, we are trying make a common practice of writing coide for update commands in our all SPs based on primary key columns in where clause. I have a following scenario...
UPDATE [dbo].[TL_CST_Locker_Issuance] SET [isActive] = 0 WHERE LockerIssuanceId IN (SELECT LockerIssuanceId
[Code] ...
What is the better approach and should be followed to avoid locks and gain performance or best approach.
I need to clear my query history. I wrongly select top 1000 rows from menu and this 1000 rows listed in 01.46 minutes. But,there are 11 million rows in the table and ı need to get the elapsed time.when I use the select * from "table name" , this 1000 rows automatically listed in 0 times.Now I need to clear all the history to get elapsed time correctly.
I have a database design question. There're lots of ways to rome they say, and I want to hear what you think of this way.
Government supplies wheel chairs (and thinks alike) to people who need them. They stay in possesion of the (local) government and are distrubuted by a company X.
So we have Tools (Wheelchairs) and Users (of wheel chairs). The life-cycle of a wheel chair is that more than one user while use it over time.
I want to keep track of which users used a instance of a wheelchair.
No there's a developer who likes to put this in one table. (the chair and it's user) in a way like this
The UID is unique, the WheelChairId is a GUID which is Unique per wheelchair, but can have mutliple records in the table with no overlap.
If one of the values of the columns is changed a new record is made with the same wheelchair and a new begin date (the closed record gets an Enddate). So history is made automaticaly. By using the right query's I can see what users uses the chair in what period of time. But also changed ownerships and other changes in Someother columns overtime.
Is this a good or a common practice? Why use it, or stay away from it?
I'm working on an application designed like this: There's a table "DailyTransations" (DT) containing daily transactions... Then there's an archive table "TransationsArchive" (TA) with the exact same structure.
When a record is inserted in DT, it is also in TA (via a trigger) and the reporting is done against TA. Now for performance issues, we delete from DT the records older than 2 days since they are not needed for processing.
First, what do you think of that implementation?
We thought about using partitions based on the transaction date and completely eliminate TA, but it seems once a record is assigned to a partition, it is not moved automatically...
Hi all, this is more of a design issue for a History table. Suppose if i have a transaction table and then based on the transactions i want to keep a history of those do i need to define Primary Key and Foreign Key for history table. Regards, General Problem
I am running a website of crossword puzzle and Sudoku games. The website is designed to be: There are 20-30 games onlines each day. Every registered user could play and submit the game to win scores. For each game, every registered user could get the score for ONLY one time. i.e., No score will be calculated if the user had finished the game before. To avoid wasting time on a game finished before, user will be notified with hint message in the page when enter a already finished game.
The current solution is: 3 tables are designed for the functions mentioned above. Table A: UserTable --storing usering information, userid Table B: GameList --storing all the game information. Related fields: GameID primary key FinshiedTimes recording how many times the game has been finished Table C: FinishHistory --storing who and when finished the game Related fields: GameID ID of the game UserID ID of the user FinishedDate the time when the game was finshied
PS: Fields listed above are only related ones, not the complete structure.
Each time when user enters the game, the program will read Table B(GameList), listing all the available game and the times games have been finished. User could then choose a desired game to play.
When user clicks the link and enter a page showing the detail content of the game, the program will read Table C(FinishHistory) to check whether user has finished this game before. If yes, hint message will be shown in the page.
When user finishes the game and submit, the program will again read Table C(FinishHistory) to check whether user has finished this game before. If yes, hint message will be shown in the page. If no, user will get the score.
Existing Problems: With the increase of game and users, the capacity of Table C(FinishHistory) grows rapidly. And each time when a game is loaded, the Table C will be loaded to check, and when a game is submitted, the Table C will be loaded to check again. So it is only a time question to find out Table C to become a bottleneck.
Does any one here have any good suggestions to change / re-invent a new structure or design to avoid this bottleneck?
I have to make a stored procedure that will show the history and changes made to a given EmpNo, with the UpdateDate, UpdateUser and indicate which field is modified. Ex. Employee Mobile number was changed from '134151235' to '23523657'.
Result must be:
EmpNo | UpdateDate | UpdateUser | Field changed | Change from | change to
I work for a college and have recently been working on our enquiries and applications process (getting it onto our big enrollment db rather than standalone). It has all been going well but now they have asked for a report of students where it has taken more than x days or weeks to progress to the next stage code.
For stage codes they basically follow something like application, guidance interview, programme area interview, conditional/ unconditional offer... Although they could skip a stage code.
Any ideas how to do this bearing in mind I can't guarantee them to go to every stage so really I need to look in the history table and find records more than x days apart where one is the next progression date of the other. Hope I explained that ok.
Each change to a person's attributes results in a new row formed with the same PersonId as in the row with old attributes and the Date these new attributes are valid (DateFrom). So as shown above the Primary Key is a combination of the PersonId and DateFrom as a change to a person's attributes should never happen at the same time twice.
My problem is when I want to create a new person, how do I get a new unique id? Ideally I want the a new incremented id, so that all peoples' ids are in a sequential order.
I've recently finished an application for a small company with perhaps two hundred employees. Each employee was set up in a Users table in the database, against which application logins were processed.
For just about every other table in the database, other than pure lookup tables, we created columns to indicate the user who created the entry, and the user who last modified the entry. This was done using FK references back to the Users table. Each table contains two references back to the Users table, and there are over 150 tables now that follow this scheme. At first I was not concerned, other than the fact that it makes a visual picture of the data model look very confusing (almost every table has a pair of links back to the Users table), until I encountered an issue where I could no longer delete from the Users table. Upon surpassing 253 FK references to Users, I can no longer delete users, as the Query Optimizer can't complete the query.
Now, all of that so far is really not a big deal. Deleting users was never my intent anyway. The only real question I have is whether this is the standard way of maintaining history for table records. Have others used this method? Is there a better way?
acutally i have setup a Disaster Recovery plan for my database.. i m taking a full back once in a week,. i dont' know when i right click on the job and trying to check the view history option to check when was last backup has been taken, it's showing nothing..but when i check on acutall location the backup was taken there.. i don't know y it's not writing any info in view history table.. or is it clear once in a week and i cann't see that...
I am doing sp tuning. It has several lines. SO I divided into several small queries and executed individually and check the execution plans. In one small query, I found table scan is happening. That query is basically retrieving all columns from a table but the table doesn't have any pk or Indexes. So is it better to create non-clustered index to remove table sca.
I have a view saved on server - mhsvi-datawarehousedatawarehouse.This view, in it's TSQL connects to a databasethat is set up as a linked server. That server is mhsvi-sql2008ainstance1.When I try to add the view to Excel in order to automatically refresh for users as a report - I get the following error - (I get it as well)
The query did not run, or the database table could not be opened.Check the database server or contact your database administrator. Make sure the external database is available and hasn't been moved or reorganized, then try the operation again.I have access to the database where the view is saved and the database that the TSQL calls.
I have a table named 'DepartmentItem' which is designed with hierarchy structure. The column 'ParentId' from table DepartmentItem indicates parent-child relationship and department root among records. I have written and run a user-defined function I use recursive approach, but the function runs slowly.
My question: is there a better way to query that hierarchy table instead of using recursive?
** The current user-defined function that is written using recursive:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnGetDepartmentTree ( @departmentItemId int ) RETURNS TABLE AS RETURN with DepartmentItemTree(DepartmentItemId , DepartmentItemTypeId , ParentId, ItemOrder, Level)
[code].....
** And definition of table 'DepartmentItem' :
DepartmentItemId int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, ParentId int NULL, -- Each department root starts when this column is NULL or the current row is department root. If it is not NULL then the current row has ParentId whose record has DepartmentItemId = ParentId of the current row (see more below) IsActive bit NOT NULL DEFAULT ((1)),
CREATE TABLE History (SnapShotDate DATETIME, UID VARCHAR(10), DUEDATE DATETIME)
INSERT INTO History VALUES ('03-23-2015','PT-01','2015-04-22') INSERT INTO History VALUES ('03-30-2015','PT-01','2015-04-20') INSERT INTO History VALUES ('04-06-2015','PT-01','2015-06-30')

I have a table that hold status history records for cases. In this table is a status field with values, opened, assigned, or complete. Each case can be assigned a number of times before it is complete, and can be reassigned. I have the need to run a query that will get each case that is still assigned, and not yet complete. I wrote a stored procedure that contains a cursor containing each case, and get the last status history record for each case and puts it into a temp table to return to the user, but is hurting performance as there are .5 million records here. Does anyone know of a better way of doing this?
