Script to find a value in all databases ? for example I want to find a value contain word “ SQL” in all databases so I will get the information in which database and which table it exists.
My script is only for finding a value in one database.
Find unused databases in a instance or when last used or accessed?
I'm on SQL SERVER 2008 R2 64bit -enterprize
I need to find when the databse is last accessed.
I have around 600 databases in my server, a user need select access of all the databases. will i have to go one by one in all the dbs and create that user and give datareader role to him. or is thr any shorter way to do so????

1.Is it OK to shrink Master, model ? the transaction log for those databases are full .
2.Is it OK to set the Recovery model of Database MODEL as SIMPLE ? at the moment it is in FULL recovery model and the transaction log is Full too
I have log shipping enabled on databases(primary and secondary) and works fine. I need to implement TDE on the database. I have experience on implementing TDE on databases which are not used for log-shipping.
What are the steps needed to setup TDE which are involved with log-shipping.
I would like to migrate around 15 databases in production server to the new production server. The biggest database is 80 GB .
Wondering is there any fastest way to do that with very low downtime ?
What I can think about is shrink databases files and perform attach – detach .
What are the potential risks of keeping data , log , tempdb backups etc in the same drive although in different folders ?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI want find all dependent objects related to a table. I am using -
SELECT DISTINCT so.name
INTO #tmp
FROM dbo.sysobjects so
JOIN dbo.SysComments sc
ON sc.id = so.id
WHERE sc.text LIKE '%tablename%'But, I want all those SP/functions/views that use the output of this query and so on...
Eg.
Table -> used in usp1 -> usp1 used in usp2 ...and so on
I have a query that finds all SPID's connected to a particular database:
select d.name, p.*
from sys.databases d join sys.sysprocesses p
on d.database_id = p.dbid
where d.name = 'my_db'
But now we have a new rule that we should not use outdated compatibility views, and one of them is sys.sysprocesses. I checked sys.dm_exec_connections/session/requests but failed to replace my existing code. The first two don't have dbid, the last one, requests, has it, but it selects only currently executing statements.
I have data like ABC_Tablename_12345, i just want everything before and after _ also if there is no underscore in the name just return the name.

The problem I'm having is around the RedgateGetDatabaseName function. My hunch is that its down to the different version of red gate and how sqlbackup works. Basically when the call is made to the function it is returning both the Database Name and the number of row's that the SQL command in the function has ran. I've tried to include a SET NOCOUNT ON at the start of the SQL command in the function but its still returning the now count.
Currently our database size is around 350G. It will grow up to 1.5 TB
We have the
Auto create statistics option :True,
auto update statistics option :True,
auto update statistics asynchronously option : False
at database level
we have a weekly job, update statistics running very long time. It is created through maintenance plan using the option full scan.
Previously they tested with sampling but instead of full scan running with the sampling effected the queries.
Is there option to avoid the long time job duration.
If we didn't run the statistics manually what will happen? How do you maintain statistics with large databases
I need to generate data models of all databases for an instance. How can I accomplish this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 2 databases: one for our intranet & another for our internet website.In the intranet database, we have a table called "Clients". A new client can be added in one of 2 ways:
1) One of our employees manually adds the client via the intranet
2) A new customer subscribes to our services via our website, thus becoming a new "client" (when subscribing online, we also add a record to an "Accounts" table located in our internet website database, but we'd also like to add a record to our intranet's Clients table as well).
In the client table is a field called "CreatedBy" which expects the UserId of whoever created the account. Again, this UserId can belong to either an employee via the intranet or a new customer via our internet website. how do I distinguish where the UserId in the dbo.Clients.CreatedBy field is coming from?
My 1st thought was to append a negative to the CreatedBy UserId# if it came from a customer via the website, but that just seemed too quirky (i.e. if an employee added a client and his UserId was '10', the Clients.CreatedBy would be '10'. If a customer subscribed via the website, the Clients.CreatedBy would be '-10'. Where customers can once again sign up online. So, I need a way to keep these databases separate but keep track of which db a user's coming from when we create a new Client record.
I am working on a task. Currently we are taking a database backup and keeping that backups in a folder. The backups doesn't have time stamp on it. My task is need to get the latest backup and copy that backups into some other server and then restore the database from there.I am planning to create SSIS package.Do we need script task for this task.How to get the .bak with latest create or moidified date. For now we doesn't have timestamp so need to go based on modified date?
View 9 Replies View RelatedWe have two databases with same schema and tables (same table names, basically main DB and a copy of the main DB). following is example of table names from 2 DBs.
CREATE TABLE #SourceDatabase (SourceColumn1 VARCHAR(50))
INSERT INTO #SourceDatabase VALUES('TABLE1') , ('TABLE2'),('TABLE3') , ('TABLE4'),('TABLE5') , ('TABLE6')
SELECT * FROM #SourceDatabase
DROP TABLE #SourceDatabase
CREATE TABLE #ArchiveDatabase (SourceColumn2 VARCHAR(50))
INSERT INTO #ArchiveDatabase VALUES('TABLE1') , ('TABLE2'),('TABLE3') , ('TABLE4'),('TABLE5') , ('TABLE6')
SELECT * FROM #ArchiveDatabase
DROP TABLE #ArchiveDatabase
We need a T_SQL statement that can create one view for each table from both the databases(assuming both databases have same number of tables and same table names). so that we can run the T_SQL on a thrid database and the third DB has all the views (one view for each table from the 2 DBs). and the name of the view should be same as the tables name. and all 3 DBs are on the same server.
the 2 temp tables are just examples, DBs have around 1700 tables each. so we ned something like following for each table.
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE1 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE1] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE1]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE2 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE2] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE2]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE3 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE3] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE3]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE4 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE4] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE4]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE5 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE5] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE5]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE6 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE6] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE6]
im trying to measure the amount of CPU used in a backup and restore, using the SQL Server Databases: Backup Restore counter in Perfmon.
I can select The counter, but it does not let me select an instance database to monitor.
see image:
I have 3 instances on my machine, 2 sql 2005 and 1 sql 2008. why do these instances not appear? i dont know how to set up this monitoring.
if i type LOCALHOST or 127.0.0.1 in the "Select counters from computer" text box i can see all databases under my sql 2005 instances, but not the ones under the 2008 instances. I have disabled all sql server 2005 services and can confirm none of the sql 2008 instance databases are showing up.
this is a huge problem, especially for when i start stress testing sql server 2008 in preperation for upgrading.
anyone any ideas on why i cannot see sql server 2008 instances in perfmon? I have tried from a remote pc also with the same results.
I have express edition [advance] of sqlserver 2008 r2 , is it possible to trace every event with out using profiler as u know it does not ship with it.

Recently I needed to find all processes connected to a particular database, let's call it Test_db. I have a simple query to find all connections to my database:
select *
from sys.databases d join sys.sysprocesses p
on d.database_id = p.dbid
where d.name = 'test_db'
But there was a process that was connected to another database like USE another_db_name; but was actually selecting from tables in test_db. Is it possible to catch such connections?

I have basic knowledge of T-SQL and I am using Cursors to get the first value, the last value and the peak value and some other values from other tables. I found some examples on google but the code I am using is mixed up. I am using multiple Cursors. I need to join three tables to get the result set into the Cursor. The first example uses 2 tables.
@FirstName NVARCHAR,
@LastName NVARCHAR,
@FirstValue decimal,
@HighestValue decimal,
@LastValue decimal
-- First Cursor
DECLARE TESTCURSOR CURSOR
DYNAMIC
[Code] ....
The above code seems totally inefficient but it gives the correct result. Now I want to pull some more value and join a third table (TABLE z) in the above CURSORS and not sure how to make it working using CURSORS.I would like to use the following in the CURSORS above.
SELECT x.publishdate, y.firstname, y.lastname, y.age, z.initialValue AS FirstValue, z.HighestValue AS Highest, z.LastValue AS Last
FROM TABLE x
LEFT OUTER JOIN TABLE y
ON x.id = y.id
INNER JOIN TABLE z
ON x.id = z.id
I am having a main table and temptable.
Every sunday, new data will be loaded from temptable to main table. I have to make sure that, duplicates does not get loaded from temptable to maintable.
For example, if last sunday a record gets loaded from temp to main. If this sunday also the same record is present then it means that is a duplicate.
The duplicate is decided on below scenario
select 'CodeChanges: ', count(*) from CodeChanges a, CodeChanges_Temp b
where a.AccountNumber = b.AccountNumber and
a.HexaNumber = b.HexaNumber and
a.HexaEffDate = b.HexaEffDate and
a.HexaId = b.HexaId and
[Code] ...
Yesterday (Sunday) , data from temp got loaded onto maintable but with duplicates.
There is a log which just displays number of duplicates.
Yesterday the log displayed 8 duplicates found. I need to find out the 8 duplicates which got loaded yesterday and delete it off from main table.
There is a column in both tables which is 'creation date and time'. Every Sunday when the load happens this column will have that day's date .
Now i need to find out what are all the duplicates which got loaded on this sunday.
The total rows in temp table is : 363
No of duplicates present is : 8
I used below query to find out the duplicates but it is returning all the 363 rows from the maintable instead of the 8 duplicates.
Select 'CodeChanges: ', * from CodeChanges a where
exists
( Select 1 from CodeChanges_Temp b where
a.HexaNumber = b.HexaNumber and
a.HexaEffDate = b.HexaEffDate and
[Code] ...
Need finding the duplicate records which has creation date time as '2015-11-01 00:00:00.000' and all the above columns mentioned in the query matches.
Example
Few colums only metioned below
creationdateandtime HexaNumber HexaCode
1. 1987-10-01 00:00:00.000 5 3
2. 2015-11-01 00:00:00.000 5 3
So here the second record is duplicate. This is what I am trying to find.
Is there a query or sp that I can pull all databases on the server along with their logical file names and physical file names?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was contacted by the SAN team to test backup/restore of larger databases using a split-mirror backup (BCV) or clone that is taken from production db server and copied to another sql box. They want to use this process once a week. I see the mounted drives with the data/log files. All looks good. Initially I attempted to attach the databases and received (Unable to open the physical file db.mdf Operating System Error 5 Access is denied). I manually granting SQLServerMSSQLUser$<computer_name>$<instance_name> on all of the physical files 20 total. That worked.
Since this will be weekly, the SAN team performed the copy again and now none of the databases can communicate with the newly copied files. NTFS permissions need to be set again. I'm getting (Operating System error 21: the device is not ready). Is there something that I'm missing in this process how the vendor BCV clones the data and SQL communicates with the copied files as I was thinking it would be more automated process?
Is there an easy way to compare the contents of objects between 2 different databases? For example, say I had 2 databases, My_DB_1 and My_DB_2, each with a SEC_User table. Say I wanted to do an object-to-object comparison between databases to see if there were any differences. Here's some sample SQL:
use My_DB_1
select * from sys.dm_sql_referencing_entities('dbo.sec_user', 'object')
use My_DB_2
select * from sys.dm_sql_referencing_entities('dbo.sec_user', 'object')
Say that the result sets above both returned a SEC_GetUser sproc object ref. Is there a way to write SQL that will compare the SEC_GetUser sprocs (and other objects in the above rowsets) from both databases? For example, if My_DB_1.SEC_GetUser returns an extra column in the result set than My_DB_2.SEC_GetUser then I'd like my comparison SQL to return a single column "IsDifferent" with SEC_GetUser as a row....

If I have to use CTEs to get there, I can do that too. Just a little lost on how to get only the one location per customer.
