SQL Server 2012 :: Using CTAS Create Stored Procedure For Client
May 14, 2014
I have table named TEMPLATE_ACTIVITY. This is template table I have 27 this kind of tables.
I want to create stored procedure to change name MICHELIN_US_ instead of TEMPLATE_ all remaining name should be same. For that I am using 'Create Table As Select' to keep same structure as Template tables.
I want to create sp as like execute this way Exec @MICHELIN_US_
So that in future if Client change to MICHELIN_US_ to UNITED_ I can just change Exec @UNITED_
And it will change all table names to UNITED_ACTIVITY
A heavily-selected database will be in an inconsistent state for several hours during a batch process. For that time, a database snapshot is created and accessed instead. To allow constant client read access to the database, a database that only contains synonyms exists. Those synonyms point to the main database except during the batch process, at which time they point to the database snapshot.
To switch the synonyms, each synonym is dropped and then created pointing to the database snapshot (after its creation, of course). The drop/create occurs inside a transaction. Roughly, the SQL looks like this:
SET XACT_ABORT ON; BEGIN TRANSACTION; DROP SYNONYM [dbo].[some_proc]; CREATE SYNONYM [dbo].[some_proc] FOR [snapshot_db].[dbo].[some_proc]; GRANT EXECUTE, SELECT ON [dbo].[some_proc] TO public; COMMIT TRANSACTION;
When the batch update is completed, the process is reversed with "snapshot_db" replaced with "regular_db". The SQL snippet above is dynamic SQL. What I've pasted is the dynamic SQL that is executed as a single batch.
While this switch is happening, clients are accessing the procedures through the synonyms, potentially at a high request rate. Testing reveals that clients can get the error:
Error=-2147217900, Id=0, Meaning=IDispatch error #3092, Source=Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers, Description=[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.some_proc'.
This error only occurs once. If the same SPID retries its request and the transaction has not completed (for testing, a delay was added), then it blocks until the transaction completes.
Any way to prevent it besides a client-side retry?
I have a requirement to allow a user to restore a database and then create database users and add them to the db_owner database role. The user must not have sysadmin rights on the server.
The database restore works ok by placing the user in the dbcreator role.
There is a stored procedure to create the database user and alter role membership, I want the user to execute the sp as a different, higher privilege account so as not to give the user underlying permission to create users in the database.
USE [master] GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[sp_create_db_users] Script Date: 22/07/2014 13:54:46 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO
[Code] ....
The user has execute permission on the stored procedure but keeps getting the error:
Msg 916, Level 14, State 1, Line 2
The server principal "Mydomainadmin1" is not able to access the database "Mydatabase" under the current security context.
Mydomainadmin1 has dbowner to Mydatabase and sysadmin rights for server. If the 'execute as' is changed to 'caller' and run by mydomainadmin1 it works so the issue is between the execute sp and the actual running of the procedure.
I have a stored procedure and in that I will be calling a stored procedure. Now, based on the parameter value I will get stored procedure name to be executed. how to execute dynamic sp in a stored rocedure
at present it is like EXECUTE usp_print_list_full @ID, @TNumber, @ErrMsg OUTPUT
I want to do like EXECUTE @SpName @ID, @TNumber, @ErrMsg OUTPUT
On SQL 2012 (64bit) I have a CLR stored procedure that calls another, T-SQL stored procedure.
The CLR procedure passes a sizeable amount of data via a user defined table type resp.table values parameter. It passes about 12,000 rows with 3 columns each.
For some reason the call of the procedure is verz very slow. I mean just the call, not the procedure.
I changed the procdure to do nothing (return 1 in first line).
So with all parameters set from
command.ExecuteNonQuery()to create proc usp_Proc1 @myTable myTable read only begin return 1 end
it takes 8 seconds.I measured all other steps (creating the data table in CLR, creating the SQL Param, adding it to the command, executing the stored procedure) and all of them work fine and very fast.
When I trace the procedure call in SQL Profiler I get a line like this for each line of the data table (12,000)
SP:StmtCompleted -- Encrypted Text.
As I said, not the procedure or the creation of the data table takes so long, really only the passing of the data table to the procedure.
Yes it looks like a stupid question but when i right click stored procedures and click new stored procedure, it gives me a QRY analyzer style window and all i can do is save the qry as a regular .qry file ?
We need to create a pdf file from SQL server preferably from a stored procedure. Application will call the stored procedure and it should generate pdf. From my research it appears it can be done using various external tools with licensing/costs. But is it possible to do this within sql server database without additional costs? I read that this can be done by SSRS in SQL server but not sure if it is a good solution and if it is additional licensing..
I have wrriten many stored procedures in the past without issue, but this is my first time using SQL Server Management Studio Express. I am having trouble creating a new stored procedure. Here is what's happening: I am opening my database, right clicking on "Stored Procedures" and selecting "New Stored Procedure". A new window opens with a template for creating a stored procedure. The window is called: "SQLEXPRESS.DBName - sqlquery1.sql". I then type up my stored procedure without an issue. However, when I go to save the stored procedure it wants to save it as a separate file in a projects folder. It does not become part of the DB (as far as I can tell). When I used to use Enterprise Manager (not an option anymore) this never happened. I'm sure I'm doing something dumb. Can someone enlighten me. Thanks,Chris
Here's my problem:I'm developing an ASP.NET 2.0 application that has a user select one or moreauto manufacturers from a listbox ("lstMakes"). Once they do this, anotherlistbox ("lstModels") should be filled with all matching models made by theselected manufacturers. If lstMakes was not multi-select, I'd have noproblem. But in this case it has to be multi-select. The database is SQLServer 2005 which does not accept arrays as parameters. I've been told thatI have to create an XML document that will act as a filtered Manufacturerstable that I can join to my Models table in my stored procedure. Problem isI don't have the foggiest idea how to do this. I've seen some examples thatjust leave me scratching my head so I was hoping someone could look at whatI'm trying to do and show me how to do this. Thanks!
I've been tasked with creating a stored procedure which will be executed after a user has input one or more parameters into some search fields. So they could enter their 'order_reference' on its own or combine it with 'addressline1' and so on.
What would be the most proficient way of achieving this?
I had initially looked at using IF, TRY ie:
IF @SearchField= 'order_reference' BEGIN TRY select data from mytables END TRY
However I'm not sure this is the most efficient way to handle this.
I have a stored procedure that calls several views that rely on each other. In the past these views used to go parallel and use up all 100% of the CPU (12 cores), and now when the same stored procedure runs it only uses 8% of the CPU (1 core). This extends the time spent on the query from roughly 10-15 sec to 2-3min. I'm not quite sure why this is happening.
Are there some obvious things to look at when optimizing views to utilize all cores/threads? Also, it doesn't matter if I set Cost Threshold for Parallelism to 1 or 50 or 5, it is always the same, and I have Max Degree of Parallelism set to 0 as well, which should mean to use all cores when available.
I have a table with the list of all TableNames in the database. I would like to query that table and find any tables used in any stored procedure in that DB.
Select * from dbo.MyTableList where Table_Name in ( Select Name From sys.procedures Where OBJECT_DEFINITION(object_id) LIKE '%MY_TABLE_NAME%' Order by name )
Any way to have a process run that will not write its changes to the transaction log? I have a process that runs every three hours and has a huge impact on the transaction log (it becomes larger than the database itself). We do hourly backups of the transaction log and normally it is reasonably sized but when this process runs, it gets HUGE.
The process takes source data, massages it and writes it to summary tables. It is not something we need to track as we can recreate the summary tables if needed and it has no impact on the source tables.
Everything is driven through a stored procedure. Is there a way to run a stored procedure and tell it that nothing it does should be written to the transaction log?
In a t-sql 2012 stored procedure, I would like to know how I can complete the task I am listing below:
In an existing t-sql 2012 stored procedure, there is a table called 'Atrn' that is truncated every night. The Table 'Atrn' has a column called 'ABS' that is populated with incorrect data.
The goal is to place the correct value into 'ABS' column that is located in the Atrn table while the t-sql 2012 stored procedure is excuting.
**Note: The goal is to fix the problem now since it is a production problem. The entire stored procedure that updates the 'dbo.Atrn' table will be rewritten in the near future.
My plan is to:
1. create a temp table called '#Atrnwork' that will contain the columns called, Atrnworkid int, and ABSvalue with a double value.
2. The value in the column called Atrnworkid in the '#Atrnwork' table, will obtain its value from the key of the 'Atrn' called atrnid by doing a select into. At the same time, the value for ABSvalue will be obtained by running some sql when the select into occurs?
3. The main table called 'Atrn' will be changed with a update statement that looks something like:
Update Atrn set ABS = ABSvalue join Atrn.atrnid = #Atrnwork.Atrnworkid
In all can you tell me what a good solutiion is to solve this problem and/or display some sql on how to solve the problem listed above?
'SELECT E.EmployeeID FROM dbo.EmployeeGroupMapToEmployee E, dbo.Per_Budget B WHERE E.EmployeeID = B.PER_PERSONAL_ID AND B.PEB_Budget_id = 243 AND E.EmployeeGroupID IN (SELECT H.Id FROM dbo.EmployeeGroup H WHERE H.InstitutionsId = 22) GROUP BY E.EmployeeID '
If i Replace @EmpFilterAddDuty with this in a QUERY, it gives me the expected result, but if i try to execute the stored procedure.:
DECLARE@return_value int EXEC@return_value = [dbo].[EP_Conterbalances] @Start_Date_For_Totals_Date = N'20120831', @EmpFilterAddDuty = 'SELECT E.EmployeeID FROM dbo.EmployeeGroupMapToEmployee E, dbo.Per_Budget B
[Code] .....
I get this error code:
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'SELECT E.EmployeeID FROM dbo.EmployeeGroupMapToEmployee E, dbo.Per_Budget B WHERE E.EmployeeID = B.PER_PERSONAL_ID AND B.PEB_Budget_id = 243 AND E.EmployeeGroupID IN (SELECT H.Id FROM dbo.EmployeeGroup H WHERE H.InstitutionsId = 22) GROUP BY E.EmployeeID ' to data type int.
I really do not understand why SQL 2012 tries to convert the value to an int, and I want to know how to pass the text string.
Our developers have gotten this idea lately that instead of having many small stored procedures that do one thing and have small parameter lists that SQL can optimize query plans for, its better to put like 8-10 different queries in the same stored procedure.
They tend to look like this:
create procedure UberProc (@QueryId varchar(50)) as
if @QueryId = 'First Horrible Idea' begin select stuff from something end if @queryid = 'Second really bad idea' begin select otherstuff from somethingelse end
I see the following problems with this practice:
1) SQL can't cache the query plan appropriately 2) They are harder to debug 3) They use these same sorts of things for not just gets, but also updates, with lots of optional NULLable parameters that are not properly handled to avoid parameter sniffing.
I have a SQL 2012 database that has 10 tables. One of the tables is populated by manual import from CSV file. Each time a user calls custom ASP.NET code., records get inserted into a table called forecast_data with incremental increase in FileID. So first import has FileID of 1, second import has FileID of 2 etc.
What I am trying to do is only keep the data that has the highest FileID (MAX(FileID). I would like to write a store procedure that removes all older data once a new import is written into the table.
Select columnname from tablename order by ordercolumn
We will call that "sp_foldersOfFile". It takes 1 parameter, a fileID (int) value.
The result when I execute this from within Management Studio is a single column of 1 to n rows. I want to use these values in another stored procedure like this:
Select @userCount = COUNT(*) from permissions where UserID = @userID and (projectid = @projectID or projectid=0) and clientid = @clientID and folderpermissions in (dbo.sp_FoldersOfFile(@fileID))
The Stored Procedure compiles but it does not query the folderpermissions in the selected values from the sp_FoldersOfFile procedure. I'm sure it is a syntax issue.
Stored procedure A calls another stored procedure B. Rowcount is set properly in called procedure B, but does not seem to return it to calling procedure A. Otherwise the two stored procedures are working correctly. Here is the relevant code from the calling procedure A:
Print statement prints @NumBufferManagerRows as 0.
Here is the called stored procedure B:
CREATE PROCEDURE [persist].[LoadBufferManager] -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here @StartTicks bigint, @EndTicks bigint, @TimeDiff decimal(9,2), @NumRows int OUTPUT
