We have just implemented our new app and I need to improve performance. We are the victims of not having a very adequate stress testing tool prior to launch. Is there an easy way to track all queries or stored procs longer than a specified time?
We have just implemented our new app and are expericing some slowness but no blocking issues. Is there an easy way to track all queries taking over x seconds to run?
Is it possible in SQL Server to set the priority at which a query will run for certain users. I have some users who's queries I never want to take over the database. These queries may take 10's of mintes to complete, and will slow down the server and affect the performance of more important queries. Is there a way to keep this from happeneing?
I have a SQL-authenticated user that I want to be able to run a pass-thru query. The user was created solely for this particular job. I've given it appriopriate permissions on all the tables, views, and stored procedures directly involved in the task. BUT, the task fails. If I have the query perform a simple task, like SELECT * FROM TABLE, it works, but, not on this:
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_gtn_RunFromAccess AS EXEC msdb..sp_start_job @job_name='CA_GTN Download From Mainframe' GO
If I give the user the DB_OWNER role, it fails; however, if I make it a sys admin, it suceeds. That is obviously no good. It also suceeds it I put sa and a password in the ODBC string, but that is unacceptable, as well.
What kinds of permission am I overlooking? Any thoughts on this? Thanks, Michael G
We have an existing SSRS server, and have just created a new child domain. We'll be migrating users from the parent to the child, and want to add the users of that new domain with access to SSRS. In the parent domain they are able to access, but after migration with the child domain account, they cannot.
I have added the group CHILDDomain Users with a system user role on SSRS, and PARENTDomain Users was already there.
Is there any additional step I should/could take to get this active?
I have had this issue just pop up. I have local users who can connect fine, but my users that require connection by VPN cannot connect. I get the server not available or access denied error. I did confirm that the VPN'ers are connected to the network correctly and can see that their shares and mappings are correct. Any ideas? Thanking you all in advance!!
I am trying to revert back to Windows 7 after upgrading to Windows 10, however it will not let me and the following message occurs: "Remove new accounts.Before you can go back to a previous version of Windows, you'll need to remove any user accounts you added after the most recent upgrade. The accounts need to be completely removed, including their profiles.You created one account (NT SERVICEMSSQLSERVER) Go to Settings> Accounts> Other users to remove these accounts and then try again".However I did not create any new users and there are no other users listed in the Accounts section.
hi alli've got two tables called "webusers" (id, name, fk_country) and "countries" (id, name) at the meantime, i've a search-page where i can fill a form to search users. in the dropdown to select the country i included an option which is called "all countries". now the problem is: how can i make a stored procedure that makes a restriction to the fk_country depending on the submitted fk_country parameter?it should be something like SELECT * FROM webusers(if @fk_country > 0, which is the value for "all countries"){ WHERE fk_country = @fk_country} who has an idea how to solve this problem?
How do you track changes to objects in SQL Server. For example changes in stored procedure,views and indexes. What system table or column track or indicate changes in text of sp or views. Help appreciated.
We are building an inventory management system complete with BOM. It is important to track what employee is updating what tables. Currently all such tables have a Date field that is updated when a change is made, and an EmployeeID field which records the employee making the change. I am wondering if someone knows of a better way to track this information. Any suggestions?
OK. For DDL, please refer to the classical Northwind ORDERS table,problem/challenge, find the longest duration (start_date andend_date), during which, no orders were placed.FYI, column names by the order of colid per syscolumns:OrderIDCustomerIDEmployeeIDOrderDateRequiredDateShippedDateShipViaFreightShipNameShipAddressShipCityShipRegionShipPostalCodeShipCountryAny idea/approach? TIA.
Hi I'm trying to get CDC going, it works however when i query the LSN using the functions i get no changes. The min and max LSN returns null. SQL agent is running, db is on full recovery model etc.
Yesterday I had problem with that a sp that contained join that the developer had forgotten the where part. The sp join very large tables and sp took more 95% dual itanium processor. How do fastest track this down when it accrues. Find the sp or sql that running and consume this much processor resources. I tried with a lot. Sp_who, sp_who2, activity monitor.
im trying to create a procedure that will insert/update a small table that has an ID, AmtBefore & AmtAfter.
this is just a table that i'd be using to monitor other activity on the database.
i'm really pulling a price + ID every hour and i need to track that somehow and know when the procedure runs if a price is lower than it was the last hour, plus of course keep the ID's straight. does anyone have a good approach to something like this?

I have several transaction tables on which I need to track the changes. That is I need to maitain the history of changes. Only few column values are changed often.
Which is the best way for tracking the changes.
1.Store the whole record after the change ?
Or
2.Store the ColumnName & its respective old & new value ?
Or any other better.
Note : UI part & SP's will take care of the tracking & no plans for triggers.
I have a table in my database and it holds some important information,I want to track the users who are executing DML commands(select,update,delete) on the data in that table. Is there any way do that?If so how could i implement that.can any one help me in this regard? Thanks in advance...
First thank you for all your help thus far. Now I'm stuck again. I've been doing a lot of reading on triggers and logging information into tables but I've been trying to capture how many times someone enters an item into the search box.
So every time somebody types Gumballs into the search box I want to capture it and the name of the person who is currently logged in. Is there away to do this? Maybe this is something that I should be checking in ASP.NET forums?
Hello everyone, I have a fairly unique need :) I am trying todetermine the use/clients for databases in my corporation that I ammaintaining, but that noone seems to know what they are for. Many ofthese databases never seem to have anybody connected to them in thecurrent activity.What I'd like to do is find a way to audit the logins, so everytimesomeone connects to a database it simply logs the clients IP address,what login they used, and maybe what time. I've been searching googlefor this and have found tons of information on auditing the logins,but not the clients, such as by ip. Any help in this regard would beGREATLY appriciated!Joshua
I have a device application that simply needs to upload data to a server. The preferred DB server is Oracle but I've made it work using RDA and SQL Server. The problem I'm having is that it just needs to upload data, whichh I send using the RDA.Push() method. The data arrives just fine, the first time. With every subsequent upload all of the previous data is deleted fromt he server. Apparently RDA is tracking the deletion of the previously uploaded data locally and on the next .Push deleting that data from the server.
My question is: Is it possible to prevent RDA from deleting data on SQL Server? I attempted to delete the rows from the __sysDeletedRows/__sysRowTrack tables but got a "Data is read only" error.
I hoipe someone can point me in the right direction here.
I have an application with the following requirements (using SQL CE 2 alas)
A set of tables on the server that need to be imported to the handheld. Using rda, I need to get the modifications to these tables from the server (add/edit/delete) but the handheld will never update these tables.
A set of tables on the server that need to be imported to the handheld. The handheld needs to add/edit existing records, and it needs to get any changes from the server.
A set of tables on the server where the handheld needs to import a subset of the records. It needs to add (but not edit) new records, upload the new records to the server, and download any changed (add/edit/delete) records to the handheld. What tracking options should I use in these 3 cases?
The problem comes in that I need to have some foreign key relationships in the database on the handheld. Since rda munges the names of primary keys (and indexes), I do not know of a good way to add these foreign key constraints. Any suggestions?
I want to keep track of data change and want to enter the pk such as testkey and timing in different table. is it possible without having to write trigger on the table!!!
I've got a table that has frequent updates to it. I want 100% change tracking on this table though, so we can rollback to any previous version, or just see any changes people make.
Is there a best practice for things like this? Currently, I'm using a trigger on UPDATE to take the previous values and store them in a history table. This keeps track of who changes what, and when. Plus the most recent data is seperate and more performant to access.
I've also heard about putting an 'IsActive' flag on the main table and any changes that are made just get marked as In-Active and a new record gets added.
Hi, i am trying to find a trigger that is updating a field in one of my tables.
I have a field called [ProfileDate], whenever a member is profiled, this field is populated with a GETDATE() value. I am trying to track down the trigger that updates this field.
