I have a table which has XML data, so it takes lot of time to delete it.
Here's the condition:
Archive all data older than 2 months and delete it.
What would be the good approach for this?
When running the following SQL statements, I get the same results.Though I need to count only -30 days. Both statements below alsoconsider the time of the day as well, which is not desiredDELETE FROM MNT_RWHERE MNT_R.TIMESTAMP < GETDATE()- 30DELETE FROM MNT_RWHERE MNT_R.TIMESTAMP < DATEADD(d, -30, GETDATE())Here is the format of the values in columnMNT_R.TIMESTAMP2005-08-09 06:06:44.5772005-08-09 06:06:46.8102005-08-09 06:06:49.060So, since data are inserted into the MNT_R table every few seconds, mydelete statement will delete different number of rows, according to thetime of the day it runs.Can you please post a SQL query that will not give me this headache?thanx a lot all
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to send a email after a certain date has pass by. And 2 days after the email has been sent the post should be removed if the member doesn't answer the message.
example: The posts should not be older then 2 months. When they get older than 2 months the SQL-Server detects this post and sends a messegae to the member if he wants to renew it. If he ignors it for 2 days after the email the post will be removed from the database. (Some posts have images also, They should also be removed from the harddrive)
Is this possible in MSSQL-Server to send email?
If someone could tell me how to create this.
I have a table with dates and values and other columns. In a proc i need to get the result as Month and the values for all the months whether or not the data exists for the month.
The Similar table would be-
create table testing(
DepDate datetime,
val int)
insert into testing values ('2014-01-10 00:00:00.000', 1)
insert into testing values ('2014-05-19 00:00:00.000', 10)
insert into testing values ('2014-08-15 00:00:00.000', 20)
insert into testing values ('2014-11-20 00:00:00.000', 30)
But in result i want the table as -
Month Value

I want to delete all backup files from a folder older than a specific date. But if I use the beklow query, I need to pass how many days of older backup files I need to delete whereas in my case, I dont know how many days/month/syears of old backup files are there in the backup folder.
EXEC xp_cmdshell 'FORFILES /p c:BACKUP /s /m *.sql /d -30 /c "CMD /C del /Q /F @FILE"'
I get the following message when I execute a mantenance plan to delete files older than 1 day.
Error # -1073548784
Executing the query "EXECUTE master.dbo.xp_delete_file 0,N'',N'',N'2007-09-30T07:56:09'

Any help would be appreciated!!
I need only the count of databases that last fullbackup was older then 24 hours or null. and status is online. I have tried
SELECT Count(DISTINCT msdb.dbo.backupset.database_name)
From msdb.dbo.backupset
where datediff(day,backup_finish_date,GETDATE()) > 1 -- or is null
and Database_Name not in ('tempdb','ReportServerTempDB','AdventureWorksDW','AdventureWorks') --online also
group by Database_name, backup_finish_date
Tried using where max(backup_finish_date) < datediff(day,backup_finish_date,GETDATE()) .But get the aggregate in where clause error. get a count of databases with backups older than 24 hours not including the samples, report service, and tempdb. I would also want to put status is online but havent gotten the above to work so havent tried to add that yet.
Hello ,
I am little confused in writing the exact query i.e filling the correct details in the query .
To simplify let me explain....
I am using the query as
delete MYTABLE
where datediff(dd,loaddate,getdate())>5
I have a table now with loadate column which gets the default date and time . The loadate shows correct date and time when the data was imported in the table .
Now suppose if i want to delete previous 5 days records from today
( for e.g today is 20/08/2002 3:40:00 PM ) ideally it should delete all records which are 5 days older from today . i.e from 20/08/2002 3:40:00 PM to 15/08/2002 3:40:00 PM )
But when i execute the datediff command , it deletes the records previous than 15/08/2002 till 15/08/2002.
The records from 15/08/2002 to 20/08/2002 remain intact .
I am getting some different results .
Am i missing something in the query or i am confused about the calculation of the dates the datediff command performs .
Is the logic correct or i am missing someting important ?
Thanks and Regards

Ok in SQL 2000 this is within the maintaince plan, where as i have to create a seprate one for sql 2005 being i assume the 'clean up history' I choose the backup andrestore option choose 2 weeks and then run the job once created it runs sucssessfully but yet it dosnt delete a thing.

I have a scheduled job which does an text file import in my database . The data gets appended in my table every day from this import job .
Since my table is growing every day , i want to truncate the table after the data has been collected for three months i.e 90 days . The table will be empty and the new data will flow in through the import .
Any thoughts how to do it through query and schedule it ???

I am using SQL 2012 SE. I have 2 databases say A and B with same structure and relationships. There are 65 tables in each database. A is already replicating data to database C for 35 tables. Now I need to move data from A to B which is greater than getdate()-1 everyday for all the tables and once the move is done I need to delete this data from A. And the same thing the next day and everyday. Since this is for 65 tables its challenging to identify the insert order. Once the insert order is identified the delete order will be the reverse of it.
Is there a tool or any SP that could generate the insert order script? The generate scripts data only is generating the entire data and these databases are almost 400GB. Some tables have 200Mil+ rows. So it takes forever.
I want to delete all files in a given folder that are older than 3 days from today's date.
I tried using a "Foreach Loop container" with a "File System" task inside it but found I couldn't access any file properties such as the file creation date. Am I using the wrong task for this job?
TIA,

P.S. History of the problem:
I used the sql 2005 Database maintenance program to setup our database backup jobs. One day I noticed that the free space on the drive where we keep the dumps had grown small. I found that we had at least 4 weeks of dumps in there, not the 3 days I wanted to keep! I looked but could not find the "delete file" option in the SSIS package generated by the Database Maintenance Wizard. No wonder the files were piling up.
Background:
Void Start Date: When a property becomes empty or vacant
Let Date: When the property is filled in again
I have the sample data below and like to show the void loss per month basis as below:
1) Allocate the amount from voidloss column between months based on voiddays:
for example for propcode 3698 the amount 13,612.56 needs to be divided between September and October based on the VoidDays. i.e of the 39 voiddays, 25 where in September and 14 in October hence 8726 will be allocated to September and 4886.56 to October
2) After allocating the amount sum the amount by controlgroup and total the voiddays per month. It will be great if we can divide the voiddays between months and sum them by controlgroup as well.
So in the end result we should have
ControlGroup, Month, Year, VoidLoss, VoidsdayinMonth
106 September 2014 8726 25
106 October 2014 4886.56 14
106 December 2014 2940 7
Declare @voidloss Table

,PropCode VARCHAR(10)
,VoidCategory VARCHAR(10)
,ControlGroup VARCHAR(10)

I am trying to get a count by product, month, year even if there are is no record for that particular month.
Current outcome:
Product Month Year Count
XYZ January 2014 20
XYZ February 2014 14
XYZ April 2014 34
...
Desired outcome:
Product Month Year Count
XYZ January 2014 20
XYZ February 2014 14
XYZ March 2014 0
XYZ April 2014 34
...
The join statement is simple:
Select Product, Month, Year, Count(*) As Count
From dbo.Products
Group By Product, Month, Year
I have also tried the following code and left joining it with my main query but the product is left out as is seen:
DECLARE @Start DATETIME, @End DATETIME;
SELECT @StartDate = '20140101', @EndDate = '20141231';
WITH dt(dt) AS
(
SELECT DATEADD(MONTH, n, DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, 0, @Start), 0))
FROM ( SELECT TOP (DATEDIFF(MONTH, @Start, @End) + 1)
n = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY [object_id]) - 1
FROM sys.all_objects ORDER BY [object_id] ) AS n
)
2nd attempt:
Product Month Year Count
XYZ January 2014 20
XYZ February 2014 14
NULL March 2014 0
XYZ April 2014 34
...
What I want is this (as is shown above). Is this possible?
Desired outcome:
Product Month Year Count
XYZ January 2014 20
XYZ February 2014 14
XYZ March 2014 0
XYZ April 2014 34

So I've been monitoring long-running transactions on a SQL Server that hosts a couple of vendor-supplied databases that look after our factory.Today I noticed a pair that have confused my Excel spreadsheet (that I've been using to analyze these transactions).So here's the weird thing that I spotted. Given this query:
SELECT p.spid, p.login_time, at.transaction_begin_time, datediff(second, p.login_time, at.transaction_begin_time) as [difference]
FROM sys.sysprocesses AS p INNER JOIN
sys.dm_tran_session_transactions AS st ON st.session_id = p.spid INNER JOIN
sys.dm_tran_active_transactions AS at ON st.transaction_id = at.transaction_id
[code]....
I had a look in the event log on the server, which had just been rebooted at around that time. It seems that the clock got changed on boot-up, with the size of it quite surprising. This meant that these processes were able to start their transactions *before* they logged on. Hopefully this doesn't cause any other weird problems.So I've requested an investigation about time synchronization on our virtualization hosts... and in the mean time, have set the SQL Server services to 'delayed start'.
Hello,
I have created a Table Called Log in SQL Server 7. I use this table as you can guess to log all transaction performed in my program. However, I would like my program to run an SQL Statement that will flush all entries in the table Log that are 6 months old from today's date.
I am unable to find the statement that will execute this operation.
Anyone has an idea please.
Thanks

I am trying to create a calendar style report that will have 12 months (as columns) and store opening listing in rows. I have created a matrix, but the problem that I have is that the store opening listing displays in the right period, but they are not in any order. I would like to have the openings always on top, right under the header in the matrix. Now I have them scattered randomly all over the matrix. I tried numerous way of sorting and that does not work.
I am attaching a sample of what I would like to accomplish (months are columns).
I have 5 TB of data in production and my development team requested to restore only last month data(<=500 MB ) in staging server and last 2 months data in pre production.

How do I do this? I've googled and haven't had much luck. I only want to uninstall the web app since everything up until then was installed correctly.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI create a main program which will launch two jobs at a time, each job does some processes and at the end I'm trying to delete those jobs after storing the job details in one of the custom table I created (cleanup sub-program).
Out of two jobs I am able to store one job details (like job_name,job_id,start_time and end_time of the job) in the custom table and able to delete that job, but the job that's getting completed at the end is not getting captured nor getting deleted from sysjobs and sysjobhistory tables.
I had included this step (which will call the cleanup sub-program to store the job details and delete it) at the end. I can see that this cleanup procedure getting called from debug message but it is neither storing details nor deleting the job.
When I execute this cleanup program separately, it does store the job details and delete it.
I have an issue with Delete statement.In the code given below (its a part of actual proc),if we use TRUNCATE to clean the temp tables, everything goes fine.But if I use DELETE in place of truncate, system skips the IF loop 'if (@script_type = 1 OR @script_type = 2)'I am not able to understand this behavioral difference between DELETE and TRUNCATE.Recently the database is being used for replication, but that should not be a reason.

I have a table with about 466 Million rows. In this table there is a int column called WeeksToRetain as well as a EventDate column containing the date the row was inserted. I am trying to delete all the rows that that should be deleted according to the WeeksToRetain. For example, if the EventDate is 5/07/15 with a 1 in the WeeksToRetain column the row should be removed by 5/14/15. I am not sure what days SQL considers the beginning and end of the week. However the core issue I am having is the sheer mass of deletions I must do and log growth.
So I am trying to do the delete in batches. More specifically I want to load a temporary table with a million rows, then use the temporary table to load a sub temporary table with 100,000 rows and join this temporary table to the table I want to delete from looping through 10 times to get 1 million. The Logging.EvenLog table which is the table I'm trying to purge has a clustered index on EventDate (ASC). I would like to run this in a schedule job with enough time between executions for log backups to run.

I have a table 'library' with two columns
user_name, access_time
every user is having more than 500 entries, i want to keep only top 50 records for every user and delete the remaining records.
I have the following scenario:
SQL database on SQL 2012
Large Production table 15 Million record
The table has 3 years of data
New monthly data is being added every month.
A New Monthly data is being loaded, checked and finally approved after 6 or 7 iteration before approval.Because of this iteration the monthly data set is being added then deleted then added then deleted few times.Because the table is big this process takes time, any thoughts on how to make the delete insert process faster.Keep in mind I cannot do much because it is a production table and is being access by other users to do other analysis.
Delete is done based on trx_date which is a year/month combo, like 201508.
The table has monthly sales by customer aggregated.
The table structure is:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Sales](
[batch_key] [int] NOT NULL,
[Company_key] [int] NOT NULL,
[customer_key] [char](22) NOT NULL,
[Trx_Date] [int] NOT NULL,
[account] [nvarchar](35) NOT NULL,
[code].....
create table #sample
(
Name varchar(100),
value int
