Performance Questions For Gurus

Apr 15, 2003

We are new to SQL 2000, and would like to bounce a couple questions off some of you gurus out there.
We are using SQL Server 2000 to build a data repository to assist us in transitioning from our old flatfile legacy system to SAP. We are also looking to use the SQL Server 2000 repository to build a smallish Enterprise Data Warehouse on the same SQL 2000 platform.

Here is our problem:
We have SQL Server 2000 loaded on a little scrapper PC with 1.4GHZ single processor, 1GB of memory, and a single 40 GB IDE drive.

When we are initially loading any of our repository tables the process cruises along pretty well, even respective of trying to locate the record for update before doing an insert. But, if we do something as simple as selecting count(*) against the table that's loading, performance on the load goes to its knees.
We understand we're pretty much at the mercy of the hardware we have (that's the budget), but we'd like to get as much bang as we can out of what's there.

Our questions are:
1. Is there anything we can do with our server configuration (short of new hardware) that will help us?
2. Are there any recommendations as far as monitors to help us better tune this specific configuration?

Thanks in advance for any help.

1. How can I Put all the Q documents from Microsoft that are related to SQL server? So that I can search fast.

2. How can I search SWYNK for all the ANSWERS that MAK/CRAIG/RAY replied to the threads. Its so weird that I answered someone and now I forgot the answer what I posted. Now I am having the same problem. I cant search.

3. I wanna put all SWYNK's Questions responses in one database say SQLSERVER, so that I can search all the threads.

I had sent many emails to SWYNK. No reply so far.

Any inputs r well appreciated!!!!!!

Security Questions.

Oct 10, 2006

SQL2K SP4

The apps that connect to my SQL DB's (for internet use) use SQL
authentication (the app login so to speak). Anyways, a Java developer showed
me that he built into his app a way to retrieve that app login and password
from SQL Server. Obviously I wasn't very happy about this. So my questions:

1; Does anyone know if the same thing can be done using .NET code?
2; I've heard of a method using .Net Web Services (WS) for using WINNT
authentication even for internet apps. It would be that the app calls a WS,
that WS the passes in WIINT authentication to the DB and all is good. Has
anyone else out there used this type of security? Is there a link you can
provide?
3; If number 2 is implemented, does it then eliminate the possibility of
apps being able to retieve the sensitive information?

TIA, ChrisR

SSIS And Security - Questions

Mar 15, 2007

Hello,

I realize that I am confused about SSIS and security.

In BIDS, I work on and modify my packages. That part I understand. Then, I want to build my project, then deploy to SQL Server 2005. I know how to do that too (for the most part, please see below):

My confusion arises around the "Protection Level" options in the package properties. Right now I have everything set to "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey". My understanding is that I need to change this in order to run my packages from SQL Server jobs, because only the creator of the package can currently run the job.

So my question is, since I want to deploy to SQL Server, don't I want to change the "Protection Level" to "ServerStorage"?

However, it will not let me change the protection level to ServerStorage. It says "The protection level, ServerStorage, cannot be used when saving to this destination"... presumably because it is attempting to save to the file system.

However, even when I built out my packages and saved to SQL Server, I could not change the protection level either.

Which is why I am really confused... Once you save your packages to SQL Server, how do you make changes to the packages, so that the changes are reflected in the packages stored on SQL Server?

There is some concept I am not understanding here.

Thanks for any help

Dialog Security Questions

Aug 10, 2006

Hi Remus

Thank you for the email reply.

However i am still not 100% clear, dialog security with certificates when there are hundreds of remote services seems a bit complicated.

I have a few more questions.

1. you said "When sending the first message (any direction), we look up the 'best' certificate for each user"

My inititor sevice is owned by dbo, i have created certificates only for named users not dbo, how would this work?

2. I am going to try settin gup this again, but at the central service i will create a seprate user for each remote service, authorize the remote certificate for this user and use this user in the remote service binding for that remote service, is this correct or am i still doing somehting wrong?

3. How does all of this relate to the endpoint security, i ahve the same scenario, 1 pricipal id with all remote certificates authorized for it for the endpoint? I have no idea how i would have to setup different user for each remote servcie as far as the endpoint goes as there is no remote service binding to dictate which user to use ?

I will keep try and experimenting maybe i will get it right sooner or later.

Thank You

More Custom Security Questions

Jun 25, 2007

Still working on custom security
Since I can't get a name of file (path) from within CheckAccess method it becomes somewhat useless. Is there a way to maybe overload GetPermissions or Policies methods? Or maybe CreateReport method so that I can include some custom code there? Is there an example of something like that?

I wish the catalog tree was transparent to Authentication extension, I don't see a point in acl for a custom extension, all I want is names and I can build on top of that. Something along the lines -




Code Snippet

public bool CheckAccess(...file...)
{
string[] permissions ;
permissions = server.GetPermissions(file);
...
Maybe I am missing something simple and I can tie everything to a security descriptor but I don't see how I can if there is no information such as name, date, modified by name and so on. All we get is principal name which is not very useful since I don't use built-in security names.

Thanks

Several 2005 Security Questions

May 28, 2008

I am an Oracle DBA who inherited SQL Server administration. I have been to some 2005 training and I've been supporting several DB's for a while now but I still have some nagging security questions and would appreciate some help.

1) I needed to grant execute on a specific procedure but when I drilled down, I found that it already had execute in the EFFECTIVE PERMISSIONS. I would like to know how to tell where it got this permission from. I did some digging and found that execute appears to have been granted to the schema itself. I didn't know you could do that. Would this result in the effective permission that I observed?

2) I am trying to audit the permissions on existing principles. In Management Studio I drilled down and found permissions under Security and under Server Properties. There are also more permissions under Database Properties and Security and still more assigned at the specific object level. Where can I go or what can I query to see ALL the permissions a principle has been granted across the entire server?

3) If I grant a principle CONTROL to a schema does that also automatically confer DDL rights to said schema or would additional privs be required to perform DDL?

Thanks in advance,
Roger Westbrook

Basic Security Questions

Sep 5, 2006

Hi,

I am new to SQL 2005, can someone give me some details instructions about how to do below two tasks:


All my developers are in a window domain user group, I need to grant dbo privileges to that domain group so then can do the their development work. The rule is all objects they create need to be owned by dbo not by there ID. ( I can€™t do it because I got €œ The €œDeafult_Schema clause cannot be used with a windows group€?)
Same as above but this time they only need select permission on tables nothing else.

Many thanks.

Security Patch/Service Pack Questions

Sep 17, 2007

<!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->

I posted this question before, and got a response about Windows Update. However, I work in a larger corp. and need to know if there are any other answers to this? We use a patch client that rolls out patches and service packs after we have tested them in our environment. What can we do to stay as up to date as possible for security patches?



How are security patches for SQL Server Express made available (e.g., as separate distributions or bundled into other Microsoft patch distribution mechanisms)? Are there specific procedures that I need to put in place to ensure that it gets patched on end user machines?

Custom Security Extension - Authorization Questions Using Forms Authentication

Nov 9, 2007

Greetings. I have developed our own custom security extension, implemented forms based authentication, and can authenticate from report manager, report server and sql studio. So far so good.

However, when it comes to Authorization, i'm unclear in a few areas and would appreciate if someone could help me out with the following questions. It should be noted that in the code I have granted an administrator user full access to all operations and permissions, and then tested against both an administrator user and a normal user.


IAuthorizationExtension.GetPermissions summary says

"Returns the set of permissions granted a specific user for an item in the report server database."

Inparticular, the secDesc parameter is supposed to contain the security descriptor associated with the item.

However, with our extension this parameter is always null, even if I have already granted access for a user, which is confirmed through logging in CreateSecurityDescriptor.

Through the report manager or sql studio I can see that the permissions have been created, so I can't understand why I never see them in the GetPermissions method? This then (seems to) flow through to the various CheckAccess methods, where the users are authenticated, but are not authorized to perform any operations. i.e. in report manager a user has no folders or reports available.


Is RS authorization designed around the concept that the details will always be stored in it's own database?

Ideally, we'd like to have the various roles, users and function authorizations defined in our own security framework. This is working great for the authentication aspect of the extension, but unless there is a mechanism which exposes the details of the particular authorization process (e.g. the name of the folder being viewed or report being run), then I can't see a way we can implement it. Unless i'm missing something fundamental of course!


Using Report Builder as the Administrator user (or any other user), I can see no data models available, even though I have created them via Report Manager, and I get the following exception trying to open up the list of reports:

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The permissions granted to user '' are insufficient for performing this operation. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.AccessDeniedException: The permissions granted to user '' are insufficient for performing this operation. at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.ListChildrenAction.PerformActionNow() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.RSSoapAction.Execute() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WebServer.ReportingService2005.ListChildren(String Item, Boolean Recursive, CatalogItem[]& CatalogItems)

I have implemented a report server proxy (inherited from ReportService2005) as per the example, to pass through the authorization cookie. Any clues as to what could be wrong?

Finally, I suspect part of my problem may be in assignment of users to System Roles ("System Administrator" and "System User"), I'm not sure if these are meant only for Windows Authentication? I can see no way of assigning these roles to any of my users using Forms Authentication.

Thanks for any help or advice you can give!

SQL Gurus Help!!!

Oct 16, 2006

My boss has a crazy idea that he want to implement using SQL 2005 and ASP.NET 2. Its something like this... If a user retrieve a record and someone is updating that same record a control on a asp.net page would warn that user that its being updated. Just like a stop light, green for go, yellow for warning, and red for stop. Were implementing optimistic here not pessimistic. Is this possible? I know pessimistic can lock that certain record. But what about in optimistic? Is it possible to monitor or know if a certain record or row in SQL 2005 is being access, updated, and deleted? How?

SQL Gurus, Please Help

Jul 23, 2005

Hi,I have a table in which two fields(FirstID, SecondID) together make theprimary key for the table. Let's look at the following example:FirstID SecondID******* ********2 22 32 55 55 78 79 1011 12Here is what I am trying to do. For a given FirstID (say, 2) find allSecondID with this FirstID (2,3,5). Now for these second ID's is therea FirstID other than 2? (Yes, 5). I would say FirstID=2 is related toFirstID = 5. Extending the logic FirstID = 5 is related to FirstID = 8.I am trying to write a SQL (some kind of self join, I think) which willgive me all related FirstID for a given First ID. For First ID = 2 theSQL will give me 5 and 8 in the above example. For First ID = 9 the SQLwill give me 11.Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!-Raj

SQL Server Load Balancing -- Any ideas?

There is no inherent mechanism available in SQL Server (replication, log shipping, or clustering) which allows you to load balance you database server.
Clustering is only useful for a failover situation and does not allow active/active balancing.

Is is possible to use merge replication between two identical OLTP servers
and manage transactions via MSMQ? Will this mechanism allow for a load balanced OLTP server?

Will this work? If not, why not?
What will work? Will federated servers work for an entire database??

I need to determine the differences between two tables with the same structure. The primary key for these tables would be a combination of all the columnhs. They use the ID field to join all their records. (i know ID is a reserved word - the client made the tables) Below is the structure of the tables.


TableA
and
TableB
----------

ID int
ComBank int
inboth int
EqorMA int
TranType int


I need to know the rows that Are different in TableA from TableB.

Any Cursor Gurus Out There?

Jun 28, 2006

i realize i am starting to ask a lot of questions here so, thanks to all who tolerate me.

In my previous post, i figured out (with the help of r937) how to create a non-identity column using a cursor. I now have some resulting questions.

1. where do cursors live? there is no folder like triggers or stored procedures. is a cursor its own file or is it embedded in a stored procedure?

2. how do i get my cursor to "act" upon my stored procedure? I want the values in my cursor's "relativeposition" column to replace the values in my stored procedure's photo_number column. how do i do this?

BELOW IS MY STORED PROCEDURE:

Code:


ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.sp_NewPersonalPic

(
@photo_name VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@photo_location VARCHAR(100) = NULL,
@photo_size VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@user_name VARCHAR(50) = NULL,
@photo_caption VARCHAR(150) = NULL,
@photo_default BIT = NULL,
@photo_private BIT = NULL,
@photo_number INTEGER = NULL,
@photo_date DATETIME = NULL
)

AS

BEGIN
SELECT @photo_date = CONVERT(DATETIME,convert(char(26), getdate(), 109))
END


--SET ANSI_WARNINGS OFF
INSERT INTO PersonalPhotos
(photo_name, photo_location, photo_size, user_name, photo_caption, photo_default, photo_private, photo_number, photo_date)

VALUES (@photo_name, @photo_location, @photo_size, @user_name, @photo_caption, @photo_default, @photo_private, @photo_number, @photo_date)
--SET ANSI_WARNINGS ON

END

RETURN



AND HERE IS THE CURSOR:

Code:


DECLARE RelativePositionCursor

CURSOR LOCAL FAST_FORWARD FOR
SELECT photoId, photo_date
FROM PersonalPhotos
ORDER BY photo_date ASC

OPEN RelativePositionCursor

DECLARE @curs_id INT
DECLARE @curs_date DATETIME
DECLARE @totalRows INT
DECLARE @firstRow INT

SET @firstRow = 0

DECLARE @Results TABLE
(
curs_id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
curs_date DATETIME,
RelativePosition INT
)

FETCH NEXT FROM RelativePositionCursor
INTO @curs_id, @curs_date

WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN

SELECT @totalRows = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM PersonalPhotos)


WHILE(@firstRow <= @totalRows)
BEGIN
SET @firstRow = @firstRow + 1
BREAK
END

INSERT @Results
VALUES (@curs_id, @curs_date, @firstRow)

FETCH NEXT FROM RelativePositionCursor
INTO @curs_id, @curs_date
END

CLOSE RelativePositionCursor

DEALLOCATE RelativePositionCursor

SELECT *
FROM @Results
ORDER BY curs_date

Q: Calling All Gurus

Jul 20, 2005

The Scenario:We have some data that can be in three states. One is a saved state,a temporary state, and a complete state.The complete state is the bulk of the data. This data will berequested 1% of the time, maybe even less.The saved state and temporary state will only number 10-15 records.This data will be used 99% of the time, very frequently.So to summarize there will be 10-15 records that will be used ALL thetime…. And 50,000-100,000 that will be used very infrequently.The programmer that I work with wants to combine the tables. I wantto keep the tables sepperate.My logic is that it will be much faster to work with 10-15 recordsthan sift threw 50-100k most of which are unnecessary to 99% of therequests. Also there are frequent deletions/modifications in thetemporary table(10-15 records). The complete table can NOT havemodifications or deletions (50-100k records). The optimization forthese tables is also very different.He says that since the structures are almost identical they should bein the same table, that we should just use a field to denote thedifferent types of records. He insists that my view is wrong and thatI know nothing about databases.I may be new to SQL, but am I really that out to lunch? Would it notmake sense to keep these tables separate?(Thank you for taking the time to read this)Sat

Guidance From The Gurus.......

May 2, 2007

Greetings All,



I have a SQL2005 table that I'm needing to export to a 'formatted' csv flat-file to emulate a mainframe output. I'm new to SSIS so don't beat me up to bad... The current output of my ssis csv file is as follows:



95752,95725,0001,0, ,N
11473,8704,0001,0, ,N
1279215,436612,0001,0, ,N
43595,43592,0038,0, ,N



and I need to get to here:



95752 ,95725 ,1 ,0 ," ","N ",0

11473 ,8704 ,1 ,0 ," ","N ",0

1279215 ,436612 ,1 ,0 ," ","N ",0

43595 ,43592 ,38 ,0 ," ","N ",0



Basically I need to pad the first 2 columns with trailing spaces to a fixed width of 11 characters, 3rd column convert number format and pad to fixed 5, 4th column pad to fixed 3, 5th column add double quotes around 20 character fixed. 6th column add double quotes around and pad to fixed 2. Finally adding a , 0 to each row which is used a LF/CR.



Any feedback in regards to getting pointed in the right direction would be greatly appreciated...

SQL Gurus, Need Help Joining 2 Tables.

SELECT BuddyID
FROM (SELECT TOP 10 BuddyID
FROM (SELECT TOP 20 BuddyID FROM Buddies Where UserID = 100025 ORDER by BuddyID) as a ORDER by BuddyID DESC) as b
ORDER by BuddyID
---------------

the query above will give me the BuddyID for about 75 records. I want to join the BuddyID on the "Buddies" table to the BuddyID on the "Users" table. I just don't know where to put "INNER JOIN Buddies ON Users.BuddyID = Buddies.BuddyID"

Concatination Help Required From Gurus!!

Oct 17, 2001

I need to execute the following code by passing the username as a parameter.Can I get help to complete the SQL statement??

exec ('sp_changeobjectowner '+ @Table_name +','+@ToUser) ---> This works fine.

But I need to have something like this:

exec ('sp_changeobjectowner '@username.+ @Table_name +','+@ToUser)

Note:
Here is the sample working syntax:
sp_changeobjectowner 'user1.eb_sku', user2

So,I need user1 and user2 as two different parameters.

As you see,I need to qualify the table name with the owner name which itself I want to pass as a parameter.

Any help with syntax is greatly appreciated!!

Question For Replication&#39;s Gurus

Dec 2, 1999

Hello!
I have push transactional replication to set up.
I have 2 publisher’s servers with tables, which replicate data in the same table on subscriber.
Tables on both publishers already have data.
When I set up replication between first publisher and subscriber
Snapshot of existing data was done, so I didn't miss any data from the
First publisher table.
But I don't have idea what to do with second publisher, because if I
will make snapshot it will overwrite the data have been replicated from
First publisher. If I won't make snapshot I will miss already existing data
in second publisher.
I have headache. Can you help me to resolve the problem?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Elena

Urgently Need Help From SQL Server Gurus

Aug 17, 2000

4 days ago we had a Server crash luckily we have the daily full database backups...Since the server which was crashed is unusable I installed SQL 7.0 on another machine...I tried to restore databases from our backup tapes...Here is the T-SQL I am running:

restore database pentatel from tape='.ape0' with file=2,move 'PentaTel_dat' TO 'D:mssql7datapentatel.mdf', move 'pentatel_log' to 'D:mssql7datapentatel.ldf'

The error message I am getting is:

Processed 8992 pages for database 'pentatel', file 'PentaTel_dat' on file 2.
Processed 1 pages for database 'pentatel', file 'PentaTel_log' on file 2.
Server: Msg 9004, Level 21, State 1, Line 1
The log for database 'pentatel' is corrupt.

Connection Broken

After these when I look at the SQL Enterprise manager I see that the database is in loading status...I left it in that status for hours but there was no reaction...So I tried to detach and attach a single file.Here are the TSQLs and Error messages...


exec sp_attach_single_file_db pentatel, 'd:mssql7datapentatel.mdf'

Server: Msg 945, Level 14, State 2, Line 1
Database 'pentatel' cannot be opened because some of the files could not be activated.
Server: Msg 1813, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Could not open new database 'pentatel'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.

We have 7 backups and I tried all of them...Same error messages...

When I try to change the status from loading to emergency or normal the database is always inaccessible

I are running these statements

exec sp_configure 'allow',1
reconfigure with override
update sysdatabases set status=32768 where db_id=6

and I stop and start the Mssql7 service but still inaccessible

Any idea???

I despretaly need help...Any recomendation is greatly apreciated...
