Hi,
I have SQL server running on windows Adv Server 2000. Since last couple days whole computer restart every one hours. Only thing I remember doing was to shrink database db size is 200+GB.
How can I fix this problem.
Any help will be highly appreciated?
Thanks.

Hi there,
I would like to be able to automatically restart a package if it fails with a certain error. This is due to a job that fails every now and then due to a loss in connectivity to the database (when run again no issues).
I know how to catch the message, but is there i way that i can in a script task or some other task restart the whole package when moving into the OnError event for the whole package.
I know this isn't a great way to do it, but its just temporary until we can isolate the network issue that is causing the loss in connectivity.
Thanks
Hi, I have setup a replication between two servers. And sometimes due to network connection problem, I get error message like :
The subscription to publication 'pub_1' is invalid.
After 10 retries, if connection cannot be made successfully, the Merge Agent will stop running.
How can I start the Merger Agent automatically after it has been stopped?
how can I configure the SQL server to automatically restart selected services on a regular basis?

Yesterday my SQL Server 7 installation rebooted itself and the error log seemed fine as did the restart. The only evidence I can find was a message in the event viewer's application log stating the the MSSQLServer service terminated unexpectedly. Any ideas are appreciated.

I've a SQL server that intermittently restarts itself mostly during. Its a SQL Server 6.5 SP4 running NT 4.0 SP6. It really has no rhyme or reason to it happening. The are no indications in either the SQL or the Nt events logs.
Has anyone heard of this?
Thanks inadvance
Hi,
I have a linked server set up to a proprietarty temporal DB through an OLEDB provider. From time to time and for various reasons the OLEDB provider crashes with "Error 7302 Could not create an instance of OLE DB Provider 'IhOLEDBProvider.iHistorian.1'. OLE DB Trace [Non Interface Error: CoCreate of DSO for IhOLEDBProvider.iHistorian.1 returned 0x80070008"
Up till now, to re-initilize the connection we have just restarted the SQL Server service. However, some automated processes are now feeding data into this server and more users and have started coming online so restarting for this issue has become a big deal.
Getting the OLEDB provider sorted out isn't an option at present so my question is:
Is there a way to re-initalise a failed linked server other that restarting the SQL Service?
Thanks,
Eamon.
Hi,
I've got a table with a column that contains the status of available licenses to the user, i.e. they are either in use or are available. If the server goes down, then when it is restarted I need to make sure all the rows in this column describe each license as being available.
So the question is how can I ensure data in a table is, if you like, initialized, each time the server is restarted? Is there a system defined stored proc or trigger than is executed when a server is restarted?
Thanks.
Hi...
i hv a database (sql server 2000) where i got locking on many tables and my application was down.
I restarted the sql server and the application was fine but after five minutes the same locking issue started happening. I did a index rebuild the next time on all indexes and everything was fine.But i cannot relate how locking occured and why it was not after index rebuild.Can anyone shed some light on this or anyone had similar experience... cos i cannot figure out a way on this.
Thanks in advance

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello everybody
I setup Sql agent for autostart with sql server and autorestart if stoped
but after rebooting NT or after stoping SQL server it never starts ,I have to start it manualy
Where to look for problem ?
I have an old application to maintain that uses CDatabase to connect to SQL Server. If SQL Server is stopped and restarted, such as in a cluster failover (i.e. move group), then the CDatabase connection needs to reconnect. It seems that it's not capable of doing this on it's own so I need to check the state some how. Various methods, such as IsOpen, seem to be useless as far as determining if I have a "good" connection.
Any thoughts?
@@servername sometimes returns NULL depending on how you have been messing around with replication and various other settings.
The simple solution offered to fix this is to delete the entries in the system tables and sp_addserver 'servername','local' and then restart the SQL service.
This is fine but what do you do in the situation where the SQL server is a 24/7 production box ? Does anyone know of a method / hack to fix this without stopping the service ?
Thanks

We were trying to restore our production server db backup in test server over LAN (due to space shortage on test server) . Test server hanged and did not respond for abt more than 15 hours (backup file 40 GB ) . The we restarted the server (resetting the power button) . Now it's showing the status 'Restoring' . According to me it's not doing anything (as seen in task manager workload ) . So how can I go ahead with checking the db .
Due to 'restoring' status I get following error
------------------------------------
Msg 927, Level 14, State 2, Line 1
Database 'envdb' cannot be opened. It is in the middle of a restore.

Hi All.
Our inhouse app used to run on a SQL2000, but we've recently moved it to 2005.
The move was done by way of backup and restore (it was on a whole new server).
After the move, an odd problem showed up: once in a while, the server seems incapable of finding/using its indexes: everything starts working slowly, until I run a maintenance plan that rebuilds its indexes etc.
In the database/server all relevant options seem to be ok (auto update statictiscs etc.), and my conclusion that it doesn't use its indexes comes from the fact that:
* it gives the results from certain select statements in a totally different order (although the set of rows is the same),
* performance is (all of a sudden) very slow (seconds turning to minutes!!)
This happens:
* at least after a reboot of the server
* sometimes just in the middle of the day
The only way I've found to solve the matter, is by running the maintenance plan to rebuild the indexes, but sometimes this only seems to work the second time.
Does anybody share this experience, or know what to do about it?
Thanks,
Nick.
I am unable to login to the sql server as I would like to reboot the server, please let me know how I can do the following remotely in such a scenario:
1. Reboot the sql server
2. Restart the mssqlserver and sqlserveragent services

Hi
We have been having a problem with on of our servers, applications connecting to it are experiencing poor performance, even though the server is only running at a peak of 50%.
The odd thing is that after a sql service restart we couldnt connect at all on the SQL port. We were only able to re-connect after rebooting the actuall box. Is there anything that can be done about this? Its strting to look like a network related problem instead of SQL
We changed the database maintainence plan, after changes do we have to restart the server in order to effect the new changes.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to find the max number of sessions that were on a sql server since its last restart?

View 0 Replies View RelatedI have a service that depends on SQL Server service. Basically we make sure that our service only starts after SQL server service started. Unfortunately this dependency does not ensure that database is available.
Basically I observed in Application log that SQL server reports that it started to listen on a port. And then I see that recovery process started. As I understand SQL server is not available while database is in the recovery state.
Note: I might have not used a correct terminology to describe SQL server recovery process as I don't have access to Application log with the exact message at the moment. I can verify the message if necessary.
Because SQL server service is started our service starts and attempts to connect to the database. Service fails to connect to database, because of the restoration process. Once restoration is done service connects successfully.
I observed that restoration process starts every time machine is rebooted. It only takes a few minutes to run, but it is enough to generate a number of error messages in event log about failed SQL connections.
My first question is: Is it normal for database to enter into recovery state every time machine is rebooted?
My second question is: If it is a normal operation, is there any way to detect that SQL server is truly available, so our code does not have to try retry establishing connection many times
I have recently changed my NT password and since then one of my machines has not been able to start MSSQL server. When I re-boot the machine it lets me know that it was unable to start MSSQL server. If I right click on the SQL server group in EM and try to manually start the service, it tells me that I have a login failure. I don't understand how changing my NT password would affect one machine and not the others. When I right click on the "edit SQL service registration properties" tab, all of the machines are using the NT password selection as opposed to the SQL server authentication password. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

View 2 Replies View RelatedPlease forgive my ignorance, I am by no means a SQL Expert, but have encountered a strange issue.
I have 6 SQL Servers, Primarily SQL 2005 (one older SQL 2000) all loaded on Windows Server 2003 SP1.
We use the servers for a proprietary database that we created which is the backend to a software package we sell.
The issue I have is: We have added a Security account to the servers, and in one case we have granted rights for this account to the TempDB system database. However, whenever we restart this server SQL drops this user account, thus severing connectivity for the app that is relying on that account.
I have set the account as DB-Owner etc, but nothing sems to keep it on re-start.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Running SQL 2005 on a dedicated Dual Xeon 8MB RAM AND 6x 160GB HDDS RAID-5. Front end App Access 2002. I have to main concerns. 1. When users are enter data and saving all of a sudden all users get stuck upon saving and requires to reboot the server to operate again. Th eproblem is that this happens 3 to 5 times a day. Also searching records with one word takes very long time sometimes even minutes, but queries having two or more words come up fast. Also single word queries come up with erratic results, sometimes 200 titles and than a second search comes up with 31,000. *** Can anyone come up with any ideas "off the cuff" on how I canstart to resolve these issues. Can these issues be related?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe are trying to quickly put together what needs to be accomplished to install a named instance of SQL Server 2000 on an existing production server (also running SQL Server 2000). It appears as if the install will require a reboot. Can the reboot be postponed until after-hours without impacting the default instance of SQL Server?
Also, I see that if certain services are stopped prior to installing sp4 that you can avoid a reboot. However, if we are unable to stop these services (DTC, for example) without impacting the default instance of SQL Server, will the default instance of SQL Server experience any issues if we postpone the post-sp4 reboot until after hours?
Thanks!

Whenever I restart the Sql Server Agent, it causes SQL Server to restart also - is this correct ? I thought the dependency was the other way around i.e. restarting SQL Server would cause the agent to restart ? Any insights gratefully accepted.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need to create a script that adds an incrementing suffix to two columns, but restarts based on the value of another column. I found a similar question in the SQL Server 2000 forum, but it doesn't quite fit and also I'm working with SQL Server 2008 R2. The code below both creates a table with test data and tries to carry out the task. If you run this, you will see that the VISITNUM column has a value of UNS in row 4, UNS.1 in row 5 and UNS.2 in row 6. In row 7 it's V200, then in rows 8 and 9 it's UNS.3 for both. The same suffix gets applied to the VISIT column, but of course if I can solve this for VISITNUM then adding the suffix to VIST as well will be easy.
What I need is for row 8 to have UNS and row 9 to have UNS.1. In other words, any time the VISITNUM is UNS several times in a row, I need to add that ".X" suffix, but if a row has something other than UNS, I need to start over again the next time it's UNS again.
CREATE TABLE #testing(
KitID varchar(20),
SubjID varchar(20),
VISIT varchar(60),
VISITNUM varchar(20),
[code]....

Is the Date/Time of the latest SQL Server 2005 instance restart stored somewhere in the system catalog?
This value is quite relevant when retrieving information on the costliest unused indexes in the instance.
I know of one way of doing this, which is to search the SQL Logs for this info.
This solution is very unwieldy - we recycle the logs daily and we only keep the logs of the last 7 days.
