SQL Server 2014 :: Metadata About Current Query

Oct 21, 2015

I'm curious if there is a way to gather any metadata about a query that was just ran, or about a dynamic query passed in as a parameter, such as being able to "dynamically" return a list of columns in the query, along the lines of:

SELECT * FROM [myTable];
SELECT @@COLUMNS --Expecting this to return a recordset of columns for the previously run query

I'm not talking about querying metadata about the tables themselves, I'm really looking for what "metadata" might be available about the query itself.

This would be useful for me to dynamically generate some code for ad-hoc queries with a stored procedure call, or to simply return a list of just column names only without the data.

Is this at all possible in SQL Server?

SQL Server 2014 :: Loop And Query CSV Files In Folder Using Union All Query To Form Resultant Table On Server?

Jun 27, 2014

I am trying to run a UNION ALL query in SQL SERVER 2014 on multiple large CSV files - the result of which i want to get into a table in SQL Server. below is the query which works in MSAccess but not on SQL Server 2014:

SELECT * INTO tbl_ALLCOMBINED FROM OPENROWSET
(
'Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0' , 'Text;Database=D:DownloadsCSV;HDR=YES',
'SELECT t.*, (substring(t.[week],3,4))*1 as iYEAR,
''SPAIN'' as [sCOUNTRY], ''EURO'' as [sCHAR],

[Code] ....

What i need is:

1] to create the resultant tbl_ALLCOMBINED table

2] transform this table using PIVOT command with following transformation as shown below:

PAGEFIELD: set on Level = 'Item'
COLUMNFIELD: Sale_Week (showing 1 to 52 numbers for columns)
ROWFIELD: sCOUNTRY, sCHAR, CATEGORY, MANUFACTURER, BRAND, DESCRIPTION, EAN (in this order)
DATAFIELD: 'Sale Value with Innovation'

3] Can the transformed form show columnfields >255 columns i.e. if i want to show all KPI values in datafield?

P.S: the CSV's contain the same number of columns and datatype but the columns are >100, so i dont think it will be feasible to use a stored proc to create a table specifying that number of columns.

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Estimated Query Plan For A Stored Procedure With Multiple Query Statements

Oct 30, 2015

When viewing an estimated query plan for a stored procedure with multiple query statements, two things stand out to me and I wanted to get confirmation if I'm correct.

1. Under <ParameterList><ColumnReference... does the xml attribute "ParameterCompiledValue" represent the value used when the query plan was generated?

<ParameterList>
<ColumnReference Column="@Measure" ParameterCompiledValue="'all'" />
</ParameterList>
</QueryPlan>
</StmtSimple>

2. Does each query statement that makes up the execution plan for the stored procedure have it's own execution plan? And meaning the stored procedure is made up of multiple query plans that could have been generated at a different time to another part of that stored procedure?

Metadata Query - Navigate Without Data

Mar 5, 2005

Greetings, I'm interested in learning how to create queries against a cubes metadata. Specifically I'm interested in writing a aquery, using VB, to return a collection of bottom level members relative to a given member name.

Using the MDX Sample appication I can execute the query:

select
Descendants([Customer].[All Customer].[Canada],,leaves) on columns
from Sales

to get the members, however, the query appears to attempt to bring back data, thus is probably an expensive method.

It would be great to understand how to implement a meta data query without have to resort to recursion,

TIA

Problem In SQL Query Writting For Cube Metadata

Aug 24, 2006

Hi Friends,
I am trying to write SQL statement for getting information about Cube metadata.
When we create any table in MSSQL server, we can trace out its information from system tables in master database by querying tables like sysobjects, syscolumns etc.
Like that I have created a cube using MS Analysis services and I can see Metadata (like Creation Date, Processed on etc) on 'Metadata' tab of cube. But I want to access its contents by writting SQL statement. For this I could not locate any system level table where this information gets stored.
Could any one help me for writting htis system table level query for accessing metadata info of cube?

Thanks in advance.

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Query Multiple Servers With A Scheduled Job Using CMS?

Mar 13, 2014

I can easily query multiple servers using the multi-server query function in Central Management Server and write some of the results to logging tables. I would like to be able to do this via a scheduled job. So far I am finding that even setting up Master/Target Servers this may not work and the only workaround is either using SSIS, SQLCMD (by basically hard coding the servername) and possibly Powershell.

tell me if they have been successful just using standard jobs and querying against multiple servers?

If I can't save the results to a 'central' database/table (I can do this when in SSMS), but can still query against multiple servers I was thinking I could write the results to a CSV file that a SSIS job picks up.

I have attempted using SSIS to iterate through servers and have been plagued with intermittent connection issues when using a For...Loop container.

SQL Server 2014 :: Query Plan For Partitioned Views Not Running As They Should

Mar 29, 2015

I've been using partitioned views in the past and used the check constraint in the source tables to make sure the only the table with the condition in the where clause on the view was used. In SQL Server 2012 this was working just fine (I had to do some tricks to suppress parameter sniffing, but it was working correct after doing that). Now I've been installing SQL Server 2014 Developer and used exactly the same logic and in the actual query plan it is still using the other tables. I've tried the following things to avoid this:

- OPTION (RECOMPILE)
- Using dynamic SQL to pass the parameter value as a static string to avoid sniffing.

To explain wat I'm doing is this:

1. I have 3 servers with the same source tables, the only difference in the tables is one column with the server name.
2. I've created a CHECK CONSTRAINT on the server name column on each server.
3. On one of the three server (in my case server 3) I've setup linked server connections to Server 1 and 2.
4. On Server 3 I've created a partioned view that is build up like this:

SELECT * FROM [server1].[database].[dbo].[table]
UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [server2].[database].[dbo].[table]
UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [server3].[database].[dbo].[table]5. To query the partioned view I use a query like this:

SELECT *
FROM [database].[dbo].[partioned_view_name]
WHERE [server_name] = 'Server2'

Now when I look at the execution plan on the 2014 environment it is still using all the servers instead of just Server2 like it should be. The strange thing is that SQL 2008 and 2012 are working just fine but 2014 seems not to use the correct plan.

SQL Server 2014 :: Using Newly Created Column For Doing Further Calculations In SAME Query

Apr 12, 2015

I am new to SQL Programming. I am learning the basics. I am trying to create a simple query like this -

SELECT
Column_1,
Column_2,
Column_3,
10*Column_1 AS Column_4,
10*Column_2 AS Column_5,

-- I am not being able to understand how to do this particular step Column_1*Column_5 As Column_6

FROM Table_1
First 3 Columns are available within the Original Table_1
The Column_4 and Column_5 have been created by me, by doing some Calculations related to the original columns.

Now, when I try to do FURTHER CALCULATION on these newly created columns, then SQL Server does not allows that.

I was hoping that I will be able to use the Newly Created Columns 4 and 5 within this same query to do further more calculations, but that does not seems to be the case, or am I doing something wrong here ?

If I have to create a new column by the name of Column_6, which is actually a multiplication of Original Column_1 and Newly Created Column_5 "I tried this - Column_1*Column_5 As Column_6", then what is the possible solution for me ?

I have tried to present my problem in the simplest possible manner. The actual query has many original columns from Table_1 and many Calculated columns that are created by me. And now I have to do various calculations that involve making use of both these type of columns.

SQL Server 2014 :: Indexes And Views - Manage Date Filtering Within A Query?

May 21, 2014

I have a dynamic SQL query that uses various indexes and views.

When a user wants to filter records based on last one day, last one week, last 30 days ...etc.. i use the following code:

@date is an integer.

begindate is datetime format.

begindate > cast(((select dateadd(d,@Date,GETDATE()))) as varchar(20))

The above code slows my query performance by at least 400%!

Would it be faster to add a computed column to my table, using the suggested method in the link below?

[URL] ....

Then i could add an indexed view to improve performance, or can this be done another way?
