I am trying to modify a script that to back databsae in t-sql.I put it in a stored procedure with one paramenter dbname.I would like if a dbname is passed when calling the sproc, it will only backup this database, if no paramenter is entered, the dbname is null, then backup all user databases- no system databases.But I have difficulty to define this two situations in code.
Below is the sproc:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[BackupDB]
@dbname varchar(50)
AS
BEGIN
Can anyone point me to the right direction with the stored procedure on making a backup of the database. I am not looking for a scheduled backup. I'm looking for when the stored procedure get executed, the backup start right away. I believe it also require a username and password as well.
Have a server running 14 production databases, 12 of which are replicated (transactional replication) to a second server for reporting. Distributor on same machine as publishers. All set to 'SyncWithBackup' = true, distribution set to Full recovery mode, log backups every 30 minutes, full backup nightly. This generally runs just fine.
Occasionally, the process 'hangs' indefinitely (has gone 12 hours or more before being caught) and I need to stop the backup job, stop one or more of the log reader agents, and restart everything, and it proceeds just fine. Annoying, but not fatal, and not very often.
This time, no matter what, the backup job hangs when it runs. This is true whether it is the FULL backup or just a Transaction Log backup. It hangs on the stored procedure sp_msrepl_backup_start, at the point where it is attempting to update the table 'MSrepl_backup_lsns'. When it is hung like this, all of the log reader agent jobs are also hung, blocked by this stored proc. I've tried stopping ALL of the log reader agents prior to starting the backup, but the backup process still hangs up at the same spot and never ends.
I can run the select statement in that SP that gathers the data for the databases 'manually' in a query window and it finishes in about 10 seconds. It actually seems to be hung up on the 'UPDATE' statement. When it is hung, I cannot SELECT from MSrepl_backup_lsns unless I append WITH (NOLOCK) to the statement. Nothing else I can find indicates that there is anything else locking that table. DBCC OPENTRAN shows that there is a lock on that table held by that stored proc -- but I can't see any reason why it won't update the table (17 total records) and move on.
As I said, normally this runs just fine. Totally baffled by what may be causing this at this time.
I created a dummy database (TomsTest) and then I try to restore my other database "DEV" to it.Normally, you have to use the Move for both the mdf and ldf files to tell it to restore to another database.But the message I am getting is: The file 'D:SQLDataTomsTest.mdf' cannot be overwritten. It is being used by database 'TomsTest'.
USE [master] RESTORE DATABASE [DEV] FROM DISK = N'D:SQLBackupDEV_backup_2014_05_28.bak' WITH FILE = 1, MOVE N'Dev' TO N'D:SQLDataTomsTest.mdf', MOVE N'DEV_log' TO N'D:SQLDataTomsTest_log.ldf', NOUNLOAD, REPLACE, STATS = 5
Of course it is in use, that's always the case. Even if I put it in single use mode, it still doesn't work.I tried it on another machine and had the same problem. Not sure why. If I call it the same name, it works fine but I don't want to overwrite the original database, I just need to get some data from the backup.
I am connecting to a new SQL Server 2008 R2 database using SSMS from my ADMIN VM workstation. I bring up a Stored Procedure and make a change.... I execute the Stored Procedure... after it finishes.... I exit out without saving to a file.... I go back in and my change was not held.
I can do the exact same process with an old SQL Server 2005 database. Is there a permission I am missing to set to be able to do this on the 2008 database.
yesterday i was trying to create Stored procedure but it fails i don't know why
CREATE proc GetBooksbyBorrowerID @Borrower_id INT AS BEGIN SELECT A.BORROWER_ID ,a.ISBN, b.book_Title,b.LANGUAGE, CONVERT(VARCHAR,a.borrowed_from_date,103)"Borrowed On(dd/mm/yyyy)" FROM borrower_details a, book_mst b WHERE a.borrower_id=@Borrower_id AND a.ISBN = b.ISBN END GO EXEC SP_Task1 10001
OK, to simplify some annual auditing of DB users (not the SQL logins,) I'm trying to craft a stored procedure that the customer on the server (they're the only customer on this particular server) can run to get a listing of all DB users and what roles they have.
I've got a query that returns this for the currently selected DB, so that part's done.I can use SP_MSFOREACHDB to run it against each DB, with the results going into a temp table to make it easier to copy/paste into an Excel file.What I want to do, and can't seem to see how, is wrap the whole thing in yet another SP of my own, with an EXECUTE AS so that the customer doesn't need sysadmin or any special privileges on the server. When I do this, it runs, but only against master.
Now, from digging it looks like you can't have an "insert #temptable exec sp_whatever" inside another SP. I'd like to avoid dynamic SQL, and while I know there are problems with MSFOREACHDB, it'll work for what we need.how to turn a user created SP, into a system SP so it can be run regardless of the DB you've selected, so at least there's that.
In t-sql 2008 r2 I need execute a stored procedure called StudentData and pass 3 parameter values to the stored procedure. The stored procedure will then return 5 values that are needed for the main sql. My problem is I do not know how to have the t-sql call the stored procedure with the 3 parameter values and pass back the 5 different unique data values that I am looking for.
The basic dataset is the following:
SELECT SchoolNumber, SchoolName, StudentNumber, from [Trans].[dbo].[Student] order by SchoolNumber, SchoolName, StudentNumber
I basically want to pass the 3 parameters of SchoolNumber, SchoolName, and StudentNumber to the stored procedure called StudentData from the data I obtain from the [Trans].[dbo].[Student]. The 3 parameter values will be obtained from the sql listed above.
The columns that I need from the stored procedure called StudentData will return the following data columns that I need for the report: StudnentName, StudentAddress, Studentbirthdate, StudentPhoneNumber, GuardianName.
Thus can you show me how to setup the sql to meet this requirement I have?
I'm not new to SQL at all, but I'm completely new to backup/restore TSQL.I have the following script, which backs up 2 databases and restores them under different database names.the script runs fine as-is, but I cannot seem to package it within a create stored procedure statement.if I attempt to wrap create procedure <name> AS begin....end around it, the statement simply executes.
--backup LGTY_QA_01, restore to LGTY_DV_01
BACKUP DATABASE LGTY_QA_01 TO DISK = 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLBackupLGTY_QA_01.bak' WITH FORMAT, CHECKSUM GO ALTER DATABASE LGTY_DV_01 SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE GO
I know ran across this some time ago when researching some other topic, but I would like to add an option to our stored procedures (which have multiple parameters) so a user could do something like:
The result would just list the parameters in the stored procedure and the options available for each parameter/what the parameter was use for.
Here is an example of one stored procedure in use:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_MyStoredProcedure] ( @BCP INT = 0---- 0 [Default]: No BCP Import, 1: Insert TempBCP Data , @Debug INT = 0---- 0 [Default]: Run process, 1: Create temp tables, run queries , @StartDate smalldatetime = '1/1/1900' ---- Enter StartDate; [Default]: otherwise use Max of Invoice date , @Date INT = 0 ---- 0 [Default]: Use std process (get last Saturday date from @StartDate), 1: Use @StartDate as is ) WITH EXECUTE AS 'ADBAccount' AS BEGIN .... END
Note: @procName,@strAccount,@intHospital,@patType are passed to this procedure from another procedure Note: The @procname procedure also takes the above parameters and @outDupCheck as output parameter
DECLARE @sqlStr NVARCHAR(500) DECLARE @ParmDefinition NVARCHAR(500) DECLARE @parmINAccount VARCHAR(30),@parmINHospId int , @ParmINpatType varchar(1) DECLARE @parmRET1 int SET @parmINAccount = @strAccount SET @parmINHospId = @intHospital SET @ParmINpatType = @patType
Is it possible to execute a stored procedure in one database, which thenitself executes a stored procedure from another database? We have decide tosplit our data into a tree structure (DB1) and data blobs (DB2) (we areusing MSDE and we have a 2gb limit with each DB so we've done it this wayfor that reason). I would like to, say, execute a stored procedure in DB1,passing in the data blob and other details, DB1 will create a tree node inDB1 and then add the blob record to DB2. DB1 will wrap in a transaction ofcourse, as will DB2 when it adds the blob. Is this possible?
I'm working on building a report and asked a developer which table some data comes from in an application. His answer was the name of a 3500 line stored procedure that returns 2 result sets. I could accomplish what I'm trying to do using the second result set, but I'm not sure how to put that into a temporary table so that I could use it.
Here's my plan according to the Kübler-Ross software development lifecycle:
Denial - Ask the developer to make sure this is correct (done) Despair - Look hopelessly for a solution (where I am now) Anger - Chastise developer Bargaining - See if I can get him to at least swap the order that the resultsets are returned Acceptance - Tell the users that this can't be done at present.
We have a stored procedure that makes a decision to pull records from one of two servers.
If one of these servers became unavailable but was no longer queried would the stored procedure still work? Doesn't SQL recompile stored procedures periodically?
Something like this:
If @ServerAIsDown=1 begin select * from ServerB.dbo.MyTable end else begin select * from ServerA.dbo.MyTable end
Firstly may I say that the sproc I am having problems with and the service that calls it is inherited technical debt from an unsupervised contractor. We are not able to go through a rewriting process at the moment so need to live with this if possible.
Background
We have a service written in c# that is processing packages of xml that contain up to 100 elements of goods consignment data. In amongst that element is an identifier for each consignment. This is nvarchar(22) in our table. I have not observed any IDs that are different in length in the XML element.
The service picks up these packages from MSMQ, extracts the data using XPATH and passes the ID into the SPROC in question. This searches for the ID in one of our tables and returns a bool to the service indicating whether it was found or not. If found then we add a new row to another table. If not found then it ignores and continues processing.
Observations
The service seems to be dealing with a top end of around 10 messages a minute... so a max of about 1000 calls to the SPROC per minute. Multi-threading has been used to process these packages but as I am assured, sprocs are threadsafe. It is completing the calls without issue but intermittently it will return FALSE. For these IDs I am observing that they exist on the table mostly (there are the odd exceptions where they are legitimately missing). e.g Yesterday I was watching the logs and on seeing a message saying that an ID had not been found I checked the database and could see that the ID had been entered a day earlier according to an Entered Timestamp.
So the Sproc...
USE [xxxxxxxxxx] GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO
[Code]....
So on occasions (about 0.33% of the time) it is failing to get a bit 1 setting in @bFound after the SELECT TOP(1).
The only suggestions I can make have been...
change @pIdentifier nvarchar(25) to nvarchar(22) Trim any potential blanks from either side of both parts of the identifier comparison Change the SELECT TOP(1) to an EXISTS
The only other thought is the two way parameter direction in the C# for the result OUTPUT. Not sure why he did it that way or what the purpose is.
I have been unable to replicate this using a test app and our test databases. Has observed selects failing to find even though the data is there, like this before?
I would like to know if it is possible to build one SP to perform all the functions (Add, Update, delete and Select) and then use this in my code instead of making one SP per action. I know this is possible but the update part throws me a little. I used an online example to explain where I fall short on the subject.
USE [SomeTable] GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[MasterInsertUpdateDelete]
[Code] ....
So using this as the Stored Procedure, how would I update a records Salary alone by the ID without having to use all the information with just the salary being the new value?
SELECT CAST(DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID AS NVARCHAR(4000)) COLLATE DATABASE_DEFAULT AS DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID, 'SRC_AX.PURCHLINE.DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID' FROM SRC_AX.PURCHLINE WHERE DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID IS NULL UNION SELECT CAST(DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID AS NVARCHAR(4000)) COLLATE DATABASE_DEFAULT AS DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID, 'SRC_AX.SALESLINE.DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID'

My tabel is HST_MASTER.Control.
I want to have this query in a stored procedure. What syntax stored procedure i need to make to fill my table.
I have a stored procedure that returns XML using FOR XML Explicit. I need to use the output of this procedure in another procedure, and modify the xml output before it is saved somewhere.
Say StoredProc1 is the one returning xml output and StoredProc2 needs to consume the output of StoredProc1
I declared a nvarchar(max) variable and trying to saved the result of StoredProc1
The sql listed above does execute the stored procedure called [dbo].[sproom] successfully and returns all the data all the rows from the stored procedure multiple times. However can you tell me the following:
1. How can I have the stored procedure return distinct rows? 2. I want the stored procedure to return selected columns. I tried using the OUTPUT parameter for some of the columns, but I got the error message, "Procedure or function spHomeroom has too many arguments specified.".
A solution might be to change the stored procedure, but I would prefer not to since this is a generic stored procedure that I believe a lot of t-sqls and stored procedures will use.
I would like to know if the following sql can be used to obtain specific columns from calling a stored procedure with parameters:
/* Create TempTable */ CREATE TABLE #tempTable (MyDate SMALLDATETIME, IntValue INT) GO /* Run SP and Insert Value in TempTable */ INSERT INTO #tempTable (MyDate, IntValue) EXEC TestSP @parm1, @parm2
If the above does not work or there is a better way to accomplish this goal, how to change the sql?
I have a stored procedure on a SQL Server 2008 database. The stored procedure is very simple, just a SELECT statement. When I run it, it returns 422 rows. However, when I run the SELECT statement from the stored procedure, it returns 467 rows. I've tried this by running both the stored procedure and the SELECT statement in the same SSMS window at the same time, and the behavior is the same. The stored procedure is:
USE [REMS] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [mobile].[GetAllMobileDeviceUsers] Script Date: 12/04/2014 */ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
[Code] ....
When I do this in the same SSMS window:
exec mobile.GetAllMobileDeviceUsers
SELECT ee.EmployeeID, EmployeeName = LastName + ', ' + FirstName FROM EmployeeInvData ee --UNION
[Code] ....
I get two result sets. The first is 422 rows; the second is 467 rows. Why?
SELECT 1, 10 UNION ALL SELECT 2, 10 UNION ALL SELECT 3, 5
- a calculated table that told me the availability for each component of the BOM, sorted by date. (each row have a plus or minus of the quantity so it can by summarized)
INSERT INTO @WhareHouseMovement (ItemID, Quantity, Date) SELECT 1, 10, '2015-03-01'
[Code] ....
My question is: how do I check when is the closest date to manufacturing? I have to check that the quantity of ALL the components of the BOM is enough to produce the product, but I can't get how to do it.
If I'm not wrong the example should give the result 2015-03-26.
I have a stored procedure that runs every 5 minutes. I have one block in the procedure that will only run if there are records in a temp table. In addition, I would like this block to run only if the current time is between 0 and 5 minutes past the hour or between 30 and 35 minutes past the hour.
Currently, my block looks like this: IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#tmpClosedPOs') IS NOT NULL BEGIN
I can get the current minutes of the current time by using:
Select DATEPART(MINUTE,GetDate())
I know that it should be simple, but I'm pretty new at Stored Procedures. How do I alter the IF statement to check for the time and only run the block if it's between the times I stated? I started to DECLARE @Minutes INT, but wasn't sure where to go from there.
