SQL Server 2008 :: Track Unallocated Space On Database?
Apr 1, 2015
I am trying to track unallocated space (because on my database growth is not kicking in) So using below query but not working!!! Is there any way I can track 'database size' and 'unallocated space' on a single database?
create table A(
Rundate DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT(GETDATE())
,DatabaseName varchar(100)
,Database_size varchar (100)
,unallocatedSpace varchar (100)
,reserved varchar(100)
[code].....
exec AdventureWork..sp_spaceused ------not working------

Morning forum,
I'm having a problem to which I'm sure the answer is simple...
All I want is a list of databases on my server with their allocated size and the free space within. Something similar to the first table that sp_spaceused gives you but on a server wide scale.
As I say, I'm sure there's a simple solution out there, but alas Google has failed me.
Thanks in advance,
Dan.

I've gone through the forum and have seen several others with a similar situation. I recently noticed my .mdf file grew to 200GB yet the data in the file is only about 40GB. I run sp_spaceused and get the following: database_size = 176GB, unallocated space = 134GB, reserved = 43GB, data = 17GB, index_size = 19GB, unused = 6GB.
I've tried "dbcc shrinkdatabase (mydb, truncateonly)", tried restarting server, tried running a maintenance plan including a reindex of the database, and I don't know what to do next.
Does anyone know how to free up this space?

HI,
I am short of space on one of our sqlservers and I want to claim unallocated space for one of my databases and give it back to OS.
I guess it is relatively simple task to do but unfortunately I am unable to find such a command. Can somebody help me and provide me that command.

At my current workplace, whenever I check table sizes using the'reserved' column from sysindexes, or sp_spaceused, I get a total forall user tables which exceeds the physical size of the database.Running sp_spaceused with no parameteres, I get a NEGATIVE value forunallocated space in the database, but only see this if I return theresults in GRID format in QA (text format gives less output):DatabaseName DatabaseSize Unallocated Spacexxxxx_xxxxx11502.38 MB-4874.80 MBReserved Data index_size unused16602800 KB7013752 KB2381904 KB7207144 KBIf I re-run sp_spaceused with the @updateusage='TRUE' option, thisoutput gets corrected to:DatabaseName DatabaseSize Unallocated Spacexxxxx_xxxxx11502.38 MB2773.76 MBReserved Data index_size unused8770680 KB6928168 KB1808096 KB34416 KBwhich shows a substantial difference in the Reserved/Data/Index/Unusedsizes.This happens every day - any ideas about:1) Why this might be happening on such a large scale, and2) Is it conceivable that these discrepancies in space allocationinformation could be causing performance problems? I can imagine thatif the database is trying to locate free pages on extents yet itsinternal view of these doesn't match reality then this could impededata insertion.Offers anybody?

Hi all,
When I am rebuilding the indexes on the tables, I am getting lot of free space( unallocated) on the database.
Before rebuilding the indexes , the size of the database = 385 Gb
After rebuilding the indexes, the size jumps to = 572 Gb (i.e.) This means 187 Gb of unallocated space .
The Command use to rebuild indexes is:
USE [databasename]
GO
ALTER INDEX [PK_index] ON [dbo].[tablename] REBUILD WITH
( PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON, ONLINE = OFF )
GO
So, every time we rebuild indexes, we have to shrink the database
(or)
Is there anything else ,I should be doing.
Thanks.

Hi All,
When i run sp_spaceused on one of my database, PROD, it gives the following output
database_name: PROD
database_size: 4268.00 MB
unallocated space: -789.82 MB
reserved: 4654920 KB
data: 2929008 KB
index_size: 327272 KB
unused: 1398640 KB
Why is that the unallocated space is negative ?
On the drive where the datafiles resides there is enough free space . Also, the datafile and transaction are set to auto grow with unlimited file growth
FYI - the OS is Windows 2000 and the DB is SQL Server 2000 with SP3
Appreciate your time and help on this.

I would like to know about the DML process (Insert/update /delete) in a particular table .. it is like change tracking but I also want to know the modification date
I know CDC ( Change data capture ) but unfortunately it needs SQL 2008 developer/enterprise edition and my SQL server is SQL 2008 STANDARD edition.

The Data file has been set at an intial size of 9449MB with Autogrowth by 10 percent unrestricted growth.
The Log File has been set at an intial size of 14199MB with Autogrowth by 10 percent unrestricted growth.
I have checked the SQL logs and no errors are being reported. There is 79.8gb available on the partition where the DB resides.

Ok following scenario
create table dbo.ADAssets
(Computername nvarchar(max))
insert into dbo.ADAssets
values
('AIRLBEOF3565 CNF:4e926e06-6f62-4864-aebd-6311543d',
'AIRLBEOF3565')
So if execute the following
select Computername
from dbo.ADAssets
where Computername like
'AIRLBEOF3565%'
I get both records,but if I do this
select *
from dbo.ADAssets
where Computername in
(
'AIRLBEOF3565 CNF:4e926e06-6f62-4864-aebd-6311543d',
'AIRLBEOF3565'
)
I only get AIRLBEOF3565
So the big picture is that I need to compare 2 tables to find records that match & don't but that I get matches that shouldn't be & matches that aren't.

I am new to mssql server. There is a table on one of my databases that occupies a lot of space. And the space usage is as follows: (all values in KB)
reserved: 42329064
data: 16272288
index: 26050032
unused: 6744
This table takes up almost 80% of my database size, and the information is this table just captures the time spent by a user on the website(not very critical data)
I would like to know how to delete the entire index (which is what is occupying most space) to free up disk space. the index is a clustered index.

I have a table 300+GB. it holds 10 years of Data. I need to delete 5 years of data and put it to another server so I can have more space.
If I delete 5 years of data, Transaction log gets so huge and size of the database even gets bigger because of the .ldf file which even gets bigger! I think I can shrink the log file and the data file. Is this the best way to do it?

how to handle space between multi-value parameter values in SSRS. For e.g. if the values are as follows -'KLO LUG', 'HGY KIU', 'LOT JUY', I know I can use the split function for the commas but its the space between the value which is the problem.

Situation:
2 servers: 1 production, 1 test.
While my application is running on the production server, I want to develop on the test server. After a few weeks, I want to update the application, and have to update the database structure on the production server also with the most recent one from the testserver, but without deleting the current data on the production server.
I create/modify all tables in SQL Server 2005 via Management Studio. The application is built in VS2008 Pro. I'm using SubVersion (SVN).
I can let Management Studio generate scripts for every change and store them manualy, but that's a little bit too much work. What I want is a sort off version control solution. A solution that a service running on the background tracks every change on a specific database on my test server, and stores them as T-SQL code in a repository. Then I can collect all those T-SQL scripts, and run them against the production server.
Is there some solution for that?

I have a requirement. I am having a database which is having views,procedures and tables. Many users are having access to the database. If i want to track all the schema changes happening in the database how to achieve that? As in i have used some tables in a procedure and someone might change the column or drop the column. So it is going to have impacts on my procedure. I need a trigger which tracks all the changes done in a database and the impacts those changes are going to make.

I am an advanced user of MS Access and other databases but relatively new to SQL Server. I am utilizing SQL Server Express to analyze a database that was created by another entity. I am interested in looking at any specific record in any table and seeing who created that record, what date/time the record was created, who edited the record, when that edit occurred, etc. I don't see any such fields in the database. Would the designer of the database have to have explicitly added such functionality, or is this information available but just hidden from the novice's view?
Thanks for your help.

I'm actually taking Microsoft's 2779 and just finished a lab where wekept track of our changes to the database.However, I'm not happy with the scripts interface because it does nottell me the chronological order of my changes to the database.Could someone share with me their technique for keeping track ofdatabase changes?I'm actually thinking a set of tables would be best, because sometimesyou want to know what database object you made a change to and othertimes you want to know when you did something...

We 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.

I am using Northwind database to Create a view showing every order that was shipped to Spain. Name the destination column 'DestinationSpain'. Include code that checks if the view already exists. If it does, it should be dropped and re-created.
Here is my script:
use Northwind
GO
/*STEP 2, #1*/
/* does it exist, if so drop it */
if exist (select * from dbo.sysobjects
where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[OrdersToSpain]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsView') = 1)
drop view [dbo].[OrdersToSpain]
GO
/* Create the View */
create view "OrdersToSpain" AS
SELECT
Orders.OrderID AS Order_ID,
Orders.CustomerID AS Customer_ID,
Orders.OrderDate AS Ordered_Date.
Orders.ShippedDate AS Shipped_Date,
Orders.ShipCountry AS DestinationSpain
FROM Customers INNER JOIN Orders ON Customers.CustomerID = Orders.CustomerID
WHERE Orders.ShipCounty LIKE '%SPAIN%'
GO

I had to to relocate the database log file and I issued an Alter database command but by mistake I put a space in the file name as below. The space is at the beginning file name. Now I am unable get the database loaded to SQL Server. The database has 2 replications configured, so deleting and re-attaching the database means the replication needs to be re-configured. Is there an alternative way to issue a command to update the database FILENAME ? Not sure if this can be edited in master database (sys files).
ALTER DATABASE [User_DB]
MODIFY FILE (NAME = User_DB_log, FILENAME = 'I:SQLLogs User_DB_log.ldf')

I found this script online..
SELECT prin.[name] [User], sec.state_desc + ' ' + sec.permission_name [Permission]
FROM [sys].[database_permissions] sec
JOIN [sys].[database_principals] prin
ON sec.[grantee_principal_id] = prin.[principal_id]
WHERE sec.class = 0
ORDER BY [User], [Permission];
but the results are this: 2 columns - User and Permission
User Permission
User1 GRANT CONNECT
User2 GRANT CONNECT
IS there a way in SQL Server (2005/2008/2012) to run a script against a Database that will show all users that have permissions to that Database and the type of permissions?

Where does SQL Server "track" DTS Local Packages?
I've looked through the tables in master but,
couldn't find anything that referenced the packages.
I need to maintain a list of a few hundred packages
and would like to do it using queries.
