My log file size is of 5 GB, I just wanna reduce this to some extent without adopting shrinking method. So is there any way to do the same ?

On executing the RESTORE command of SQL Server to restore from a backup of 78.3 MB, the "Server Application Unavailable" error message comes up.The error message in the Application log is as follows:aspnet_wp.exe (PID: 2184) was recycled because memory consumption exceeded the 152 MB (60 percent of available RAM).
However using Query Analyser of SQL Server I am able to restore the database.
What is the solution to this problem?
I have a well-structured but also very large binary data-set that is generated by a C++ application every five minutes. The data needs to be accessed by SQL applications. Since data is generated every five minutes, performance is key, both for write and read. The data set is about 500MB.If data is written to the file system, the write performance doesn't involve SQL server. For reading it, I have a CLR to read the portions of the data that I need based on offset and length. That works and is very fast. The problem is that data is stored in the file system, so it is not self-contained within the database.
A second option that I haven't explored yet, is to write the data into a table as VARBINARY(MAX). I would read the data using SUBSTRING with appropriate offset and length. Performance of SQL write/read of binary data of this size, and whether there is a third option I haven't thought off. I'm using SQL Server 2014.

I need to knwo if its possible to easily store / retrieve c# objects in SQL Server 2005 as user defined data types or some other type. We need to be able to store collections of simple objects as a single value and be able to and recreate the c# object. For example one type would be a hashtable of objects that just have 2 public members Date and Value
Any help apprecitaed

I am having a bit of a mare on the database backup front - i.e. monster
DB, not a great deal of space to back it up into.
As I do the backup, the file on the disk seems to stay at 2KB
How does the file get written? Is there a temp somewhere first?
Cheers in advance - Dave
I've got two databases on the same server and replicate some tables from one database to another.The replication is configured so not to drop the table if it exists, but to delete the data based on the filter if one exists. There are two tables on the subscriber that have some extra columns.
I get "field size too large" error when trying to replicate them. Is there a workaround without having to make the publisher and the subscriber tables identical by schema?
What is the recommended size and file growth for a database and log file? We will be storing approx 10000 records a day.Currently we have the following:
CREATE DATABASE Dummy
ONÂ
PRIMARY
( NAME = Dummy_data,
  FILENAME = 'D:....DATADummy.mdf',
  SIZE = 250MB,
  FILEGROWTH = 25MB )
LOG ON
( NAME = Dummy_log,
  FILENAME = 'D:....DATADummy_log.ldf',
  SIZE = 50MB,
  FILEGROWTH = 5MB ) ;
GO
I am trying to resize a database initial log file from 500M to 2M. I€™m using€?
ALTER DATABASE <DBNAME> MODIFY FILE ( NAME = <DBLOGFILENAME, SIZE = 2 ) "
And I'm getting "MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size." I tried going into the database properties and setting the log file to 2M, but it doesn€™t keep the changes.
Any help with this process?
I'm getting this error while trying to insert records into a SQL Server Compact Edition database. I have pasted my connection string that was used when creating the database as well as for accessing that same database from my Windows application.

I have several databases that have grown to 300 GB and would like to distribute the data into multiple files across multiple drives. Can I create a new database that is spread across the new drives and use a full backup to restore or am I stuck with unloading the data table by table?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello,
I am developing a smart device application with Visual Studio .Net 2005 and SQL Server Compact Edition database. And also using merge replication to synchronize the data from the mobile device to the SQL Server.
My database size is around 350MB. So when I am trying to synchronize this is the error message that I get.
" The database file is larger than the configured maximum database size. The setting takes effect on the first concurrent database connection only.[Required Max Database size ( in MB; 0 if unknown)=129].
I tried changing the Max database size in the connection string and my connection string looks as follows and still did not have any luck.
connstr= "Data Source=Storage CardItems.sdf;Max Database Size=500;"
Any help regarding this would be appreciated.
Thank you

I have a Database which when I Right Click and go to Properties size is 52 GB
But the Size of MDF + NDF Files is 25 + 7 = 32 GB. Log file Size is 20 GB. So I am thinking -- Properties Size of DB includes size of Log Files too -- is that correct?
But when I do a Full Backup the .bak File Size is 26 GB -- does the Full Backup Shrink a DB ?
I thot Full Backup only Shrink the Log Files and could not find anywhere in BOL where it says BACKUP shrinks the empty space in Database -- can somebody confirm this?
How does backup database command works? I don't see size of database backup file increasing while backup is in progress OR is it locked till the backup is finished.
Thanks.
We have a database which was created with an initial file size of 10 gig. Currently it is only using 2 gigs.
We have developers that want to have a copy of the database on their desktops, but do not have 10 gigs free space.
What is the best way to get them a copy of the database while reducing the footprint?
Hi,I have set the DB to auto grow by 30 %. As well I have set it tounrestricted size.... However , I see the available size continually beingreduced to now less then .54 MB... Why is there not enough available ?G

I am facing problem of memory size of database file.
I am using SQL Server Express Edition for my application which will log point values after every second.
I have two table in my database
PointValues1_500 with the following columns
DateAndTime of type DATETIME with cluster index
Val1, Val2, Val3 ----- Val500 of type NUMERIC(18,6)
PointValues501-1000 with following columns
DateAndTime of type DATETIME with cluster index
Val1, Val2, Val3 ----- Val500 of type NUMERIC(18,6)
According to specification provided by microsoft DATETIME takes 8 bytes and NUMERIC(18,6) takes 9 bytes and 132 bytes per row for internal usage. So, it will take 4710 bytes approximately per row including index (if i am right).
When I put 60 rows in each table data file size is increased by 1 MB which should be 4710 * 60 (rows) * 2(tables) = 0.6 MB approx. I this scenario i am losing 0.4 MB memory that will cost me a lot if i have point values for 1 hour = 3600 rows per table.
Please give me a suggestion how to overcome this lost.

Hi all,
How to derease the database file size in Primary filegroup.
Thanks,
I need to write a process to get file size in kb and record count in a file. I was planning on writing a c# console app that takes the file path and name as a param however should i use a CLR?
I cant put a script in the ssis when it's bringing the file down because it has been deemed that we only use ssis for file consumption.
How to get the initial size of the database file using T-SQL.
sys.master_files, sys.database_files, sysfiles, sysaltfiles --> gives only the current size and not the initial size.
finding the database size from the backup file.I have SQL 2012 backup file, is there any way to find the estimated database size from the backup.I tried restoring , i got an error saying " no space need additional xxx bytes " ...does this error gives the exact space needed to restore ?
One more question....one of the backup file size is 7.2 GB, when i try to restore it ....it throws error saying it needs 292GB extra space while only 100 Gb is available. How come 392 Gb sized database becomes 7.2 Gb .bak file ?
I would like to add to it the actual file size in mb or gb of each file to the results.

The sp_spaceused procedure does a nice job on it's own giving me what I want (only one db though), plus a bonus allocated space column. How can I combine this sp with my other query, or is there a better way to ad this information?
I need to increase the file size for a mirrored database. I am new to using mirroring for replication. Will increasing the file size break the mirror?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a database I need to copy from a Prod server to a Dev server. There is not enough space on the Dev server. In looking at the size of the files on the Prod server, the Initial Size property for the transaction log on the Prod server is set to 100,000 MB though the log is using nowhere near that.
This is a mirrored database so the recovery model is "full". I know that to change the initial log size, I have to put the database in 'simple" recovery model. Is this possible? Can I just:
1. Pause the mirror
2. Switch recovery model to simple
3. Change the initial size property to something smaller.
4. Shrink the transaction log
5. Change the recovery model back to full and resume the mirror?
I honestly don't know if the transaction log is needed on the Dev server. Meaning I may just be able to restore the transaction log to a different location on the server and delete it so that new one is created.
Hi
I've been searching this site and the Web for info on an error message I get when importing from Access 2003 into SQL Server 2000.
'Data for Source Column 3('Col3') is too large for the specified buffer size'
A memo field in Access is larger than 255.
I have followed advice about putting the field to the first column. This doesn't work - the error just returns the new column number. In fact, I've tried just importing the first column - no good.
I am wary about making Registry changes as comments on the Web say this doesn't work either.
Does anybody have the solution for this.

I have set up transaction replication between two databases. Data from a table in the first database is replicated to the same table in another database.
The table at the publisher already has some data in it. The table at the subscriber is empty. When the replication is synchronizing, I get the following errors in the replication monitor:
*The process could not bulk copy into table "dbo"."virtualdatalocations_waitingqueues". (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL20037) Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL20037
*Field size too large
The table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE virtualdatalocations_waitingqueues (
dataid int ,
personid int ,
queueid int ,
CONSTRAINT FK_vw_dataid
FOREIGN KEY(dataid) REFERENCES datalocations(id) ON DELETE CASCADE ,
CONSTRAINT FK_vw_personid
FOREIGN KEY(personid) REFERENCES persons(id),
CONSTRAINT FK_vw_queueid
FOREIGN KEY(queueid)REFERENCES waitingqueues(id)
);
It used to run fine in the past. I couldn't find any help on google or on forums.
Any help or comments are greatly appreciated.
I have several clients who are reporting a negative file size on their database devices in Enterprise Manager. The sp_helpdevice procedure reports the size correctly. Any suggestions?

View 2 Replies View RelatedNeed to confirm if we can add space(increase data file size) for the database which is configured for always on similar to that of mirroring or we need to follow any different procedure.

db.[name] as 'Database Name',
af.[name] as 'Logical Name',
convert(decimal(12,2),round(size/128.000,2)) as FileSizeMB,Â

I recently started using Differential backups. They are working but are growing in size a lot quicker than I expected.
The backups are growing by 2.5GB every day although the total size of all
transaction backups is under 350MB. I would have imagined that the total transaction log backups would be a good indicator of total database changes and therefore the differential backups would approach this figure.
Please explain!
Hello,
I have a issue with the drill down. In the report there is drill down in the Amount column. I am trying to pass the customer names in this drill down but there are more than 100 customers for that specific case and drill down is not able to pass all the customers.
Is there any other way to pass the large string in the drill down?
