Hi There
In Sql Server 2005 sys.dm_db_task_space_usage is great for tracking down temdb space issues.
I have tempdb space issues in sql server 2000, how do i get the same info in SS2000 ? IE: What spid is using the most tempdb space ?
Thanx
What will the net result be if I limit the tempdb size, and it grows to it's limit? Will it crash my server? Will it shutdown SQL? I will most likely be moving it to another drive, but until then I can't have it consuming my entire drive like it did 2 days ago! Please Advise. - Rob

I'm trying to add space to tempdb. I created a new device for 100megs and then I double clicked on tempdb db and then clicked on 'Expand'. I selected this new device in the data device - pull down and then did a 'Expand now'. After it successfully completed I went back and did a recalculate to find that the log space on tempdb has been increased and not the data space. I tried this twice with the same results.
Could anyone please tell me what's happening and how I can increase the data space on tempdb.
Thanks in advance,
Haranath
This database is running on SQL sever 6.5.
We are running an home-created stored procedure that includes several rounds of dropping and recreating indexes in a few tables, i.e., after dropping indexes, the tables are truncated, then a lot of records will be inserted into the table, and the indexes are recreated.
we are getting the following error in turns:
1. ODBC error: Microsoft] ODBC SQL Server Driver] SQL Server]Can't
allocate space for object '-841' in database 'tempdb' because the
'system' segment is full. If you ran out of space in Syslogs,
dump the transaction log. Otherwise, use ALTER DATABASE...
We then used EM to expand the tempdb, when reran the procedure, we got the following message:
2. ODBC error: Microsoft] ODBC SQL Server Driver] SQL Server] Cannot
drop the index 'dbo.ItemBalamce_CCB_Id',because it doesn't exist in the
system catalogs.
However, when I check the mentioned index, it is certainly there.
How could this happen?
After several rounds of running theis procedure, these two error messages appeared to occur alternatively.
If you have an answer or suggestion, please let me know ASAP.
Many thanks.
I received an alert from our alerting system that log space for tempdb is used over 60%.
My question is what options do I have to troubleshoot and fix it? If it would be a regular user database, I would check for log_reuse_wait_desc in sys.databases, run another log backup, and maybe some other things. But what I can do with tempdb?
Hi
On one of my SQL servers (SQL 2000 SP4) i have a problem with spid blocked by itself (spid 54 (Blocked by 54)).
On the server it's running a verry simple UPDATE statement (from the Query Analizer)'. The query needs very long time to finalize (on SP3 it was very fast). I searched some forums regarding this issue and i found that maybe the SP4 can cause this problem.
Do you have any idea or advice?
Thanks

what is the best way to make free space in tempdb?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am getting an error while running SSIS package:
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Could not allocate space for object 'dbo.SORT temporary run storage: '...' in database 'tempdb' because the 'PRIMARY' filegroup is full. Create disk space by deleting unneeded files, dropping objects in the filegroup, adding additional files to the filegroup, or setting autogrowth on for existing files in the filegroup."
The destination is sql 2000. The package does not create any large temp tables.
apart from setting MaxInsertCommitSize property on the destination in Data Flow, is there anything else I could do?
Where do I find this MaxInsertCommitSize option?
Hi,
I am using SQL2005 SP1 and I have a 4Gb Tempdb (datafile) with virtually nothing in it.
I am unable to release the free space to the operating system. I have used dbcc shrinkfile...truncateonly but this has had no effect.
There is no error message and there are no open transactions, I have attempted to drop the data file by transferring to a new file but I can't because it the primary file...
Any idea would be very helpful!!
Cheers.
does anyone know if tempdb can be physically moved to a different partition on a disk drive on SQL Server 7.0? Since it can't be backed up I'm hesitant to use the sp_detach/sp_attach procedure because I don't want to crash it. If nothing else is available, I can attempt moving it this way at the end of the day and then just reboot to get tempdb back up again if the server fails, but I'd really appreciate a suggestion from someone who has more know-how than I do about system table operations. Thanks again

View 7 Replies View RelatedHi,
I believe our problem is related to tempDB on the specific server but I would like to know if anybody has come across a similar issue.
We have an SQL statement similar to the following.
BEGIN TRANSACTION
CREATE #tableA
INSERT #tableA SELECT (expression A)
INSERT #tableA SELECT (expression B) WHERE (condition)
COMMIT TRANSACTION
First, let me briefly expand on the second INSERT as this may help when reading the points below.
INSERT #tableA
SELECT ...
FROM ... INNER JOIN tableB
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT ... FROM #tableA WHERE #tableA.columnA = tableB.columnB)
This script works fine on all of our servers except one, which is why I believe tempDB may be involved. After an analysis of the problem, we have the following results,
- If we remove the Transaction, the script succeeds.
- If we leave the Transaction and remove either the first or second INSERT, the script succeeds.
- If we leave the Transaction and both Insert statements and remove the WHERE (condition) from the second Insert, the script succeeds.
- If we reduce the row counts from all source tables concerned by 90%, the script still does not succeed.
- The script had succeeded the week before on the server in question.
Finally, if we replace #tableA with tableA, the script succeeds.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Can someone please explain what the tempdb database is responsible for in SQL Server 2000. The database and log file has grown extremely large and I cannot backup this table for some reason. Thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a tempdb split into 4 files (5 if you include the log).
Autogrowth is disabled on the mdf/ndf files so that they can be used round robin (1 file per logical CPU).
Is there a way to be alerted when there is x% of free space left?
I know hwo to check the free space via t-sql but want to be able to be alerted. I could run a sql job that reports the free space and send a database mail message if under x% but wondered if there was a built in (or better) method?
I also have SQL Sentry.

has anyone met with this before?the setting is SQL2K with SP3 on a 2 node active-active W2K3 cluster.on one of the machine, it occasionally prompts for the following error:"The log file for database "tempdb" is full. Back up the transactionlog for the database to free up some log space."the problem is, at the time of error, the tempdb tx log is only 200MBand there are over 50G disk space available.settings of tempdb:-- 10% autogrow, unlimited max size-- auto shrink off-- data file around 1GThanks.

View 1 Replies View Relatedtoday I've put in production a big database accessed by 200 concurrent users, this database has READ_COMMITTED_SNAPHOT set to ON.I know that RCSI set to ON is very aggressive on tempDB so I'm monitoring it.I've noticed that the Transaction log space usage (%) on TempDB is slowly but ever increasing, I mean in the last 24 hours I've started from a 99% space free, now we are 37% space free...is it normal? TempDB log is 35GB in size.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have scenario where I have process that loades data into SQL server 2012 database by doing some manipulation on data like sorting , aggregation, etc. Once this process is completed it's not free up the Tempdb space. If I restart the database, then it does.
is there any way (apart from shirking) to release space for Tempdb, like writing some post SQL queries to delete/ truncate the data and logs from temp db?
I am supporting a system that needs to allow users to have access to TempDB.
I set these users up using the GUI, but whenever the server is restarted, these users permissions are wiped out and the db_owner permission is lost and I have to manually go in and apply the permissons for the database to work again, it happens on most reboots but not all.
Is there anyway to keep these users permissions when the server is rebooted?
Your help is most appriciated.
P.S Could I create a stored procedure that when ever the Server is rebooted the procedure would recreate these permissions?
If I need to do this how would I go about doing this?
Hi, we have a SqlServer instance in production containing around 10databases.It has just been realised that all the db's are held on the small c:partition with only a gig or so of space left.On the server there is another partition and another hard disk bothwill ample space (few hundred gigs).What would be the best way of getting the data onto the otherpartitions with minimal impact on the applications. Can we move theprimary data files for each db? Should we just create secondary datafiles on the big partitions for all the db's? Is there a method ofmoving all the data at once?Any ideas on how we should approach this?(ps we dont have control of the sqlserver its outsourced, so simplerthe better).Thanks,Jim

In my environment, there is maintenance plan configured on one of the server and while running DBCC checkdb on a database of size around 200GB, log file usage of tempdb is increasing and causing the maintenance job to fail.
What can I do to make the maintenance job run successfully, size of the tempdb database is only 50GB and recovery model is set to simple. It cannot be increased as the mount point on which it is residing is 50GB.
Hello -
I have a Foxpro app with a SQL Server 7 backend. The Idle Connect setting on VFP is set to indefinite. I'm having some connectivity issues where the SPID for the client seems to disappear from the active SQL processes on the server when the client sits idle for a while (10 minutes or so). On some workstations, resuming activity at the client results in the SPIDs reappearing
as if they were always there with no problem. On others, the connection is not reestablished and the client gives a 1526 (VFP ODBC) error.
Does anybody know why this might be? Are the SPID connections cached at both sides and if so, how?
Thanks.

I'm trying to map the SPID of a certain process to the PID under the processes tab in task manager. I can map the PID to the KPID through the sysprocesses table but this KPID does not appear in task manager under the PID's under the processes tab. How can this be done?
View 8 Replies View RelatedHi,which is the syntax for a stored procedure that return to me the exact@@SPID of my current connection?I'm using ADO in VB6 and i want to obtain @@SPIDThank uRob
View 1 Replies View RelatedThere are times when I either compile a stored procedure, or right now as I am creating indexes on tables, when sp_who2 shows a SPID assigned to my name that I do not currently have opened in SSMS. When I check the statement with dbcc inputbuffer it shows a query hitting many of the system views. Earlier this week, someone tried killing one of these SPIDS and SQL Server generated a new SPID with the same type of query.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi, I wonder if anyone can shed some light on this issue -
We have a client/server program for MSSQL7 and MSSQL2000.
When running client/server - we have our own broker, etc,
the program ends up locking itself on SQL2000; this is not a problem on SQL7.
We noticed that it seems some system tables locking tempdb.
We also noticed that SQL2000 no longer has insert-into/bulkcopy option like SQL7. But, here we don't have temporary tables at all. It's just that we found the lockings in tempdb caused by some sysobjects, sysindexes, etc.
Also, this does not happen to all the systems we have. Some of our machine does not have the self-lock problem; most of the machines have this problem though.
If we don't run client/server, then the program works fine.
Same logic, the difference is when we use client/server logic to connect to the remote SQLServer 2000 server, the locking might happen on most of our machines.
Anyone is familiar with tempdb and locking issues, please provide some hint??? Is it possible that there are some system parameters that we can set to avoid the problem. We haven't found out why some of our machines do not have problem, while most of the machines have this locking problem.
The program is written using ODBC.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi there,
When SQL Runs out of space, I find that once you clear some more space on the drive, a reboot is necessary otherwise web applications will time out once there is a substantial amount of load on the server. Has anyone else find this to be the case and if so Im just curious why this is so?
Could anybody tell me how to find out the total space allocated to a database excluding the log files in SQL server 2000. Thanks
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just ran into an issue with cascading locks due to a SPID on one of my production servers. When researching the lock, I noticed that there was no sql text. SP_Who 2, nor the following query captured anything,
SELECT sqltext.TEXT
, sqlplan.query_plan
, req.session_id
, req.status
, req.command
[Code] ....
I spoke to the user causing the lock and he ran into a visual basic error when this occurred and didn't close out that window. So my guess is that it's due to an uncommitted transaction. However, shouldn't I still see something if that was the case?
Has anyone seen the SQL Server error:
"tempdb is skipped. You cannot run a query that requires tempdb"?
We're running a .Net web application with a SQL Server 2000 backend, and we get the error intermittently. Restarting the SQL Server service seems to fix it, as it causes tempdb to be rebuilt, but this isn't a long term solution. Any direction or hints would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
