View 1 RepliesOn 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?
Using Ola Hallengren's scripts I do a full backup of a database on a Sunday. Then differential backups every 6 hours and log backups every hour. I would like to keep a full week of backups based off the full backup done on Sunday. Is there a way for me to clear out the diff and log folders after the successful full backup on Sunday nights?

Can anybody help in introducing the YTD Concept:
My Table[ Monthly_Highlights_tb ] schema should contain like below:
[Month] [Base_Amount] [YTD]
APR-07 1000.00 1500.00
APR-07 500.00 1500.00
MAY-07 2000.00 3500.00
jUN-07 5000.00 8500.00
WHEN I run the below query:
UPDATE t
SET t.ytd = (SELECT SUM(q.base_amount) FROM Monthly_Highlights_tb q WHERE q.[month] = t.[month] AND q.[month] <= t.[month])
FROM Monthly_Highlights_tb t
output is coming as:
[Month] [Base_Amount] [YTD]
APR-07 1000.00 1500.00
APR-07 500.00 1500.00
MAY-07 2000.00 2000.00
jUN-07 5000.00 5000.00
cAN anybody correct the query?
I scheduled automatic backup process but its only showing backup of the only one .sql file in the backup folder. Other created .sql files are not backed up. Why is it so?

Please let me know the details of the following.
1.What is Multi-Threading?
2. How it is useful to increase the Performance of a SQL query.( How it is useful
in Optimizing the query.
3. How we'll use MultiThread concept in Partitions and Using Processors.( For Eg.. If I want to use MAX threads=14 and 16 processors in this situation how we use PArtition concept and how it will improve the bufffer size of the CPU)
Thanks in advance
The distinction between Entity and Relationship is obvious to me. But I am confused by Table. Table describes Entity, Relationship, or both?
Thanks for any input.
Before going in to details i like to understand more about concept anddesign of this database. Most books go directly in to details.Please, can a current admistrator gife me information on this?Thanks in advance,Dick vd Spek email: Join Bytes!

What is the equivalent for Oracle's nested table concept in SQL Server ?
Is there anything like TABLE( ) function to select from nested table as in Oracle ?
Eg in Oracle :
SELECT t.* FROM TABLE(nested_table_datatype) t;
( like the above query used in Oracle PL/SQL and 'nested_table_datatype' is a table datatype created in Oracle using 'create type ...' syntax )
Please give the equivalent for above...
Thanks,
Sam

Hi
I am involved in a product development and want to understand the current best practices from the conception to product rollout. I have few questions. Appreciate your help and suggestions
Our project in a nutshell: Our team has developed the apps. using GUI-Oracle Forms & DBMS-Oracle 8i/9i with weblogic, Corba, windows 2000 server environment. It’s meant for 1000s of users with million of data. We are trying to integrate additional services/capability - messaging (wireless, chat etc.). As per the initial plan we have a central database and users will be using a local footprint database. The deltas (the changes) will be synchronized with the central database at a frequency say daily or nightly... We are concerned that having the database at the users desktop could leave the door wide-open for others to take a look at our code/design...
Questions:
1. UML case tools-- What’s the best tool available in the market as we want to revisit the design phase and identify the things that have been missed out in the prototype-(which was developed by a third-party)?
So far we have used ERWIN to extract the data model...
2. How can we eliminate the need to have a local footprint database at the users desktop.?. Since there is a lots of data, retrieving the data via internet could be very slow for users? (hope this is the case!) That’s what led our team to think of having a local database at the users desktop. Someone suggested to use the data files or caching the data.. Appreciate if anyone shed some light on this.. Is there a better way to do it?
3. Client connectivity: What are the softwares needed at the users PC. Since we use Oracle Forms to develop the application, do we need to install the oracle clients at the users PCs? how to establish the connectivity from the Users PC to our server and to the database. IF we have to use the oracle client, does that require licenses for every User? What do we need to consider from the network connectivity stand point.
4. Application Rollout: how to package our finished product - application exe that is installable across wide array of environment. (we thought of install shield). how do we test it for accuracy etc.,
5. Database optimization: In addition to DBA help, is there any product or proceedures to ensure dataModel optimization, SQL query performance etc.,
Appreciate you sharing your valuable thoughts on this with us..
I tried samples of FileTable in SQL Server 2012 to store files in database. I have following questions.
1. When I right click on FileTable, and say Explore File Table Directory, I was taken to a directory. But if I search the same directory in my server/machine, the directory is not available.
2. Can I use some external server/disk as a directory for FileTable?
3. How easy is to use FileTables using .Net web applications?
Hello All,
I've been trying to get a range of values out of my SQL Server 2000 db without sucess. The field in question has the data type of char(8) and looks like this:
House_numbr_pub (leading spaces in front of each value)
140A
140
141
142
143
144
145
146
147
148
149
150
151
.
.
.
14500
.
.
.
Does anyone know how write a sql statement that will return 140-150, but excluding the ' 14500' and 100-1000. I tried the following where clause to return a range between 100-1000.
WHERE (cook.STREET_PUB LIKE 'lincoln%') AND (LEN(LTRIM(cook.HOUSE_NUMBR_PUB)) BETWEEN 3 AND 4) AND (
(LTRIM(cook.HOUSE_NUMBR_PUB) >= '100') and (LTRIM(cook.HOUSE_NUMBR_PUB) <= '1000') )
This where clause only return two records (100 and 1000). I want it to return 100-1000.
I also tried the following where clause:
WHERE LTrim(cook.HOUSE_NUMBR_PUB) like '1[45][0-9]'
OR
LTrim(cook.HOUSE_NUMBR_PUB) like '1[45][0-9]'
However, building this on the fly with .net will take some effort if someone is trying to search range 1-10000000.
Please Help,
James
Is it possible to do the following without cursors or creating an identity column:
I have a table from legacy data with ~ 1 million records. I need to insert this into the new table which has a unique varchar(11) key. For the new system this key is generated by calling a SP that returns the next key in sequence. To put the legacy data records in the same table I want to first create a new column at end of legacy data table and populate this using SQL without going thru using cursor and calling the SP for each and every record to get a unique varchar(11) key.
In short here is what I want:
Field1 Field2 varchar(11)key
------ ------ -----------
jsdhf dsf99 1LEG
878jh whjhj 2LEG
8728jh whjhj 3LEG
8578jh whjhj 4LEG

6878jh whjhj 6LEG
8508jh whjhj 7LEG
...

4878jh whjhj 1000000LEG
How do I generate this key using an SQL stmt?

Hello forum.
I have a problem that is kill me.
Initial dates: a table (Tbl_1) to collect dates from users (within form in VB), a view (View_1) to compute some columns (is a part from business€™ logic) and a table (Tbl_2) designated for a trigger.
I will try to resume the contents of above table€¦
create table Tbl_1
(
id int not null,
code varchar(10) null,
TBO int not null, -- (Time between Overhauling)..hours (life cycle)
T_Hrs_AtLastOvh int null, -- total running hours from last overhauling
TRH int null, -- total running hours (the life of equipment)
)
GO
Create view View_1
as
select code, [TBO]-([TRH]-[T_Hrs_AtLastOvh])as HrsTo_NextOvh
from Tbl_1
GO
create table Tbl_2
(
id int not null,
code varchar(10) null,
Start_dt smalldatetime,
Stop_dt smalldatetime,
)
GO
--drop table Tbl_1
--drop view View_1
--drop table Tbl_2
Let to insert some dates into Tbl_1:
Insert into Tbl_1
select 1,'cod1',2000,2500,3000
union all
select 2,'cod2',3000,4000,7000
union all
select 3,'cod3',1000,2000,2000
union all
select 4,'cod4',1500,3000,3000
GO
The result of View_1 is in Fig.1:
Fig.1
cod1
1500
cod2
0
cod3
0
cod4
2500
cod1
1500
cod2
3000
cod3
0
cod4
2500
Fig.2
The operator perform requested job for the equipment and the life cycle starts counting again. Suppose to have:
Update Tbl_1 set T_Hrs_AtLastOvh=7000 where id=2
GO
The result of View_1 is Fig.2.
I wish to insert (within trigger) into table Tbl_2 all codes that have [HrsTo_NextOvh]=0 from View_1 and automatic to record the date when the record is done with a propertie like €™starting job€™.
After the operator executed the job, he will update the Tbl_1 (the result is in Fig.2) and the trigger has to record this process with the propertie like €˜completed job€™.
Depending by the time between overhauling and the operating hours of equipments, this task happens more or less often.
My intentions are to record the time requested to executed a job and to make a history of events.
Any suggestion to solve my problem is full apreciated.
I'm having problems implementing the following in reporting services 2005.
My hierarchy looks like this (just to illustrate the problem...):
University->Student->Exam
My query returns the following fields:
University,Student,StudentPayment,ExamName,ExamScore
I need to create a report that will show the hierarchy and to smartly aggregate the StudentPayment to both the Student and the University levels.
The problem is that the StudentPayment field is being multiplied by the number of exams in the upper level aggregation.
If only I could set the granularity level of the StudentPayment measurement...
Note that I don't have access to the query, so I can't change anything on that front.
Thanks,

Hi,
tell me please how I can trace the modification on the table such as "insert" record into one and syncronize mirror table at the same time once the insert has happend, BUT - no indexes no trace jobs, no any modification or objects on the master table... ha?
I'm still a database newbie so I would like to solicit thoughts aboutthe smartest way to do something in sqlserver.My company has a web application that we customize for each client.We can do this because everything is database driven. We havedatabase tables that contain our HTML and database tables as well assome standard tables for each database. We have an in house app thatlets us tweak both of these things and creates a new web site anddatabase tailored to each project.Each of these sites has a table that stores a schedule are clientsuse.The records in this schedule table change when information in othercustom generated tables change.My company currently uses a legacy foxpro app to update the scheduletable.The foxpro app contacts sqlserver, reads a table with a list of tablesand scheduling information to check, checks each of those items andupdates the schedule table.I would like to lose the foxpro app.At first thought.........as a database newbie.......putting triggersin each of the tables to update the schedule when something changesseems the way to go.However, since we change a part of the schema ( we have an app thatgenerates the database tables unique to each client ) for each clientI would like a scheme that would not involve having to create adifferent trigger for each new table.I would also like something that updates in real time. Right now thefoxpro app is executed once a day.I was thinking of making a large stored procedure and putting anidentical call to that procedure in each table.Each table would have the same trigger in it that would get fired whenthe record was altered. It would call the stored procedure withrelevent arguments to update the schedule.Does this sound like a smart way to solve this problem or am I notthinking "database enough"?Any thoughts are welcome.I would like to build a better solutionSteve

I'm trying to develop an application that will run on a pocket PC with Windows CE 4.2
I'm using .Net 2003 and the application is in VB.Net.
I can run the application on the pocket pc fine (ie. form paints, buttons work) , until I need to connect to Sql DB on the server.
When I try to create a connection object (Dim dbconnection As New SqlClient.SqlConnection)
I get an error stating .. "This application (test.exe) requires a newer version of .Net Compact Framework than the one installed on the device" .... "could not load System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection from assembly System.Data.SqlClient Version=1.0.5000.0"
The version that it is looking for is. 1.0.5000.0 . The VS2003 is using this version.
I've downloaded the compact framework v1. sp3 , ran all the cabs on the Win CE device ... it looked that it installed fine.... but the problem still exists.
Help Please..

Hey all... great site!
Here's what I'm going for:
I have an 05 VB.NET windows application that will be used as a smart client for our folks in the field. The windows application includes 05 SQL Server Express. I have included in the Data Sources of my project and attached file going through the wizard Microsoft SQL Server Database File (SqlClient) ='s (myfile.mdf) and then selected all tables, views, stored procedures, and functions... the corresponding myfileDataSet.xsd with the myfile.mdf are now located in the root of the project. I now recompile the project without error and go to the properties section Publish tab... select the Application Files button and myfile.mdf Publish Status is set to Include and the Download Group set to Requried. With this in place I right click on the myfile.mdf from the Soultion Explorer and under the properties section have set the build action to compile and use the copy always setting for the Copy to Output Directory.
My app.config looks like this:
<configSections>
<sectionGroup name="userSettings" type="System.Configuration.UserSettingsGroup, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" >
<section name="myfile.My.MySettings" type="System.Configuration.ClientSettingsSection, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" allowExeDefinition="MachineToLocalUser" requirePermission="false" />
</sectionGroup>
</configSections>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="myfile.My.MySettings.ffgscrmConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|myfile.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
After the publish is completed on the client machine... install for Windows Installer 3.1, SQL Server Express, and the Windows Application contains no data but everything else works fine.
My problem is that I need to attach the myfile.mdf to the new SQL Server Express instance on the client machine during the installation process so that when the application fires it will be pointed to the above location on the client.
Any ideas... scripts... includes for an ApplicationEvents.vb on how to do this? Thanks a ton... :)

Your mind is like a parachute.. It has to be able to open, for it to work.
declare @ContactId as integerset @ContactId = 5select *from Person.Contactwhere ContactId = @ContactIdOR @ContactId = -1If you run this in SQL 2005 on the AdventureWorks database,why the logical reads is 561Table 'Contact'. Scan count 1, logical reads 56and not 2 when you run without the second OR condition:declare @ContactId as integerset @ContactId = 5select *from Person.Contactwhere ContactId = @ContactIdHow can i use the same SP and either get one record returnedby passing the ID of the field, or pass a dummy parameter like-1 in order to get ALL the records returned.In this case even when i pass a parameter like ContactID = 5there is still a table scan (clustered index scan in this case)happening for the other OR condition.There's no method to tell SQL to start checking the first conditionwhether or not it is true then if it is false then check the second ORconditon. On the same topic does this mean all OR conditions areALWAYS verified regardless if one of them has already been determinedto be True?Thank you

First of all I would like to announce that this is my first time I post here.. However, I'm pretty sure that I'm in the best place to ask what I want. To cut the story short, I'm querying SQL database on a remote machine and having the result saved (mapped) to another table on another database on the same remote machine. The thing is the destination table was empty before the query was run the first time. I have been searching for some smart way so that when I modify the source tables that my query is based on, it doesn't affect except the modified rows. In other words, it should be like if the row is already there, do nothing. otherwise, it updates the existig record. else, it's a new record and it's inserted. I think what i need will include some coding for sure, yes? I don't know if i'm clear about the requirement or not though! but I know that you are experts and can direct me. Waiting for your valuable replies.

I've created a simple application that uses a SQLCE 3.5 database. When I debug it SQLCE 3.5 is deployed to the emulator. However, I made a "smart device cab project" for my application and copied the cab file to my windows mobile 6 device and it does not deploy SQLCE 3.5. I don't see a way to specify the prerequisites of the "smart device cab project" like you can in a normal setup project. How can I get SQLCE 3.5 to deploy with my application...or even just get it on my device? I've tried installing it on my desktop with the device connected via active sync, but it doesn't install on the device like the compact framework did.

You can't simply point a SQLExpress instance at an ip addressinstance and have it resolve the communications.

What is the best way to compare two entries in a single table wherethe two fields are "almost" the same?For example, I would like to write a query that would compare thefirst two words in a "company" field. If they are the same, I wouldlike to output them.For example, "20th Century" and "20th Century Fox" in the companyfield would be the same.How do I do this? Do I need to use a cursor? Is it as simple as using"Like?"

Hi
I have created a Smart device application for Windows CE 5.0 device using Visual studio 2005 and i have added the smart cab project to the solution. When I add project out in teh appllication folder, the detected dependencies are not included. Instead dependent files appear with red circle in solution explorer.
My project uses .Net Framework 2.0 and SQL Server mobile 2005 and SQL Server mobile database file and some symbol files
I need included all of them in my cab project and when user clicks on it (in the device) it should install all of them.
Let me know why detected dependencies are not included in the Cab project and how can get all the above mentioned things to be installed along with my program

Hey all,
Cool place! Has anyone deployed SQL Express silently using one click and an attached a smart client DB from within the app ... would love to see some of the best practices or horror stories! Just kidding... :) I'm about to deploy a smart client using SQL Express and could use some tips from someone who has been there.
Thanks in advance,
