Is there a way to fetch database usage details for multiple SQL servers (report) usirng powershell script.
Details: servername, databasename, datafile usage, logfile usage, free % age...etc.
As a part of DBA, I used to execute various SQL files. Most of the time, it is like a manual effort to execute the files individually.
I am looking to automate the process, like a single click to execute all the .SQL files.
The main hurdle I have is, some files needs to be executed in A1 database, some in B1 database and some other SQL files need to be executed in C1 database. In this scenario, I need to pass the DBName information to the powershell query dynamically.
My design for this requirement is, say each .SQL file need to contain a template like
@DBName = 'your Database name'
@Executeon = 'When to execute'
In this case, the powershell first need to read the SQL file and finds the value for @DBName and replace it in the powershell query and execute the SQL files automatically.
Is it feasible ? Or any other alternate easier way to proceed.
I am following website link:

I require to gather status details about all the SQL Agent jobs in the environment on multiple SQL Servers.
I tried to edit the script using:
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.SMO")
$sqlServerName = 'localhostdeveloper'
$sqlServer = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server($sqlServerName)
foreach($job in $sqlServer.JobServer.Jobs)
{
$job | select Name, OwnerLoginName, IsEnabled, LastRunDate, LastRunOutcome, DateCReated, DateLastModified
}
but SQL Agent jobs are not reflecting in the mail output...
Hi,
I started working with SRS from the past one month. I am breaking my head to do this. My report has a single stored procedure. I made it to work all values of a parameter like
exec sp_employee 'All' (Returns data for all employees)
exec sp_employee '1111' (Returns data for an employee with id 1111)
exec sp_employee '1111,2222' (Returns data for an employee with id 1111 as well as 2222)
This part works perfectly. I could successfully pass the values as mentioned above using a code block.
Now my challenge is how to layout the data on the report.
I need to show the report as follows:
Employeeid Employee Name Address etc.......
Skills:
Skill# Skill Name
1 11111
2 22222
3 33333
4 44444
Contacts:
Contact Type Contact#
Main 111-1111
Emergency 222-1111
Eductation:
Name University
Degree UofU
Masters UofU
I tried using group by employeeid. But i can only show one group of data either Skills/Contacts/Education.
I do not know if I use sub-report, how to pass the parameter from the main, when I pick multiple values for Employeeid.
Any idea how to do this? I appreciate your help,
Thank you,
I Use the below QUERY to fetch the index details of a table from SQL Server 2000 database .
EXEC sp_helpindex 'mytable'
Is there any alternative for the above query .
Because the above query is not fetching some indexes in some version of SQL Server database .
I am trying the above query against SQL Server 2000,2005 and SQL Server 7 versions .
providing a query for fetching the data for CPU Usage, Memory usage, blocking and all details ...
I want to create a job which will run on a Node every 15 min and store data in a table for each instance...
DMV is not giving more stuff and xtended events not sure if i can store that data into a table?
I have a backup checking script on my server. I want to change the script to run on multiple servers, and below are my requirements,
1. I have an input file with my sql script which i want to run in command prompt and i have a list of servers in an another input file.
2. I need a script to take the input from the input file , process my sql script and produce an output for each servers.
3. Or can we use SSMS or some sql agent script to make it possible ?
I created a view with a simple join query
there are 2 rows with orderid as null, i am unable to fetch the details when i give WHERE Condition as
"select orderid from joins where orderid=NULL"
Query :
create view joins as
select A.customerid,A.Companyname,A.Contactname,A.City,B.OrderId from Customers A
left join orders B
on A.Customerid=B.Customerid
I am doing some administrative tasks and need to collect some principals information from multiple instances and user databases.
I have table "dbo.instances" with list of instances.
I have databases from "sys.databases".
How can I execute the query to get principals information from "sys.database_principals" on each remote instance and database. I know that can use cursor, but not sure how to do this with multiple servers and databases.
I can use Profiler to see database usage activity. However, in addition to it, is there a good query I can use to see whether user databases are being used (last select, last update, last alter or last delete etc., with date/time stamp)?I am looking for both SQL2000 and SQL2005 as we need to decommission some of the older servers.

I'm trying to create a database that takes specific information from a number of databases on different servers to make some reporting that we have much easier.
I'm pretty new to SQL so I'm not sure of the best way to proceed. I read an article that suggested I use the OPENROWSET command. The problem is, the version of SQL that came with one of the programmes we use is limited and will not allow you to turn on the allow "Ad Hoc distributed Queries" so the SLQ statement will not execute.
I'm confused why it won't let me to connect through ODBC as I've created a web page that selects data from this database with no problems!
Here is the SQL statement that I've written to make sure it is the correct one (on the msdn library page it said that this was the ODBC connection):
SELECT a.*
FROM OPENROWSET('MSDASQL','DRIVER=(SQL Server);SERVER=APPOLOACT7;UID=sa;PWD=***************',
'SELECT * FROM MDCTestAndDev.dbo.TBL_CONTACT') AS a
I've also created the ODBC connection using the tool on Administration Tools>Data Sources ODBC
Any help would be greatly appreciated (also any ways of selecting from one database and inserting it into another will be helpfull)
Thanks

I have a job which copies .txt files 24 hours 7 days a week to c:TempSource
What I am planning to do is copy the files from one location to another say c:TempTarget
So I have written the Powell shell script and when i put that in the sql agent job i get below error ;
A job step received an error at line 5 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is '$filesToMove = $files | Where -Property "Name" -NotLike -Value $newestFile.Name'. Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'Property'. '. Process Exit Code -1. The step failed.
$sourceFiles = "c:TempSource*.txt"
$targetFolder = "c:TempTarget"
$files = Get-ChildItem $sourceFiles
$newestFile = ($files | sort LastWriteTime -Descending)[0]
$filesToMove = $files | Where -Property "Name" -NotLike -Value $newestFile.Name
$filesToMove | ForEach { Move-Item $_ $targetFolder }
I have a report designed in RB3 that uses a data source from a SQL database that is on the report server. I want to add data to the report from an access database an a network drive.
I can add the second data source and create a data set to add data to the report. The dataset query returns data from the Access database but when I run the report I get the following error.
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'Feasibility'. (rsError OpeningConnection)
Also when I test the connection to the Access data base I get error ERROR (IM002) (Microsoft)(ODBC Driver Manger) Data source name not found and no default driver specified.
I noticed that Report Builder is connecting to the report server. If I disconnect from the report server I can a can connect to the Access data base but not the SQL database.
How can I get the report to run against both data sources?
I am trying to update my SQL table using an update query in powershell from an excel sheet.
The query is as follows,
#building name from excelsheet
$TCell=$reader.GetValue(8);
#update query is as,
$CreateScript1= "UPDATE $DestinationTable SET $DestinationTable.Phone = '$SCell' WHERE RoomNumber = '$FCell' and buildingname
like ''$TCell'%'"
I want to use like operator in the query to compare building name from excel sheet with the building name in sql table. I am facing an error in the highlighted part. I am not sure if my query is right or wrong.
I have a requirement, we need to pass comma separated list using powershell script.
How can we achieve the above scenario?
So I get the basics, have a script that can deploy a single report to a single server. I have other simple scripts that work as well. Now I want a script that can deploy a single report to multiple Sharepoint servers. I have about 30. I know we are probably doing this wrong, as in, we shouldn't be deploying the same report to 30 sites, as they are all all technically all on the same server however they are all independent site collections so as far as I know there is no way to deploy them to a central location and then link to them from each site.
So I tried to copy elements of my single report deploy script and duplicate the Sub Main() to Sub Main1() and Sub Main2() with multiple "ParentPath1" dims, yes I know I'm stupid. That obviously didn't work. So looking at some other scripts including my own subscription updater and I'm sure I need to do some kind of "For Each item in X" but where to start. The other lists I've seen all come from rs.Something. My list is just 30 variables in the script, how can I say for each site in this list, Publish this report?
Here's the simple script that works fine. I just don't know how to modify it to make it deploy this to multiple sites. After I figure that out, I was going to accept the challenge of deploying multiple reports to multiple sites in a single script...
Dim warnings As Warning() = Nothing
Dim parentFolder As String = "Reports"
Dim filePath As String = "filepath"
Dim reportName As String = "Report file name"
Dim parentPath As String = "Sharepoint site URL"
Public Sub Main()
[Code] ....
I want to run a powershell script using xp_cmdshell, put the results into a temp table and do some additional stuff.I'm using:

)
INSERT INTO #DrvLetter
EXEC xp_cmdshell 'powershell.exe -noprofile -command "gwmi -Class win32_volume | ft capacity, freespace, caption -a"'

SQL server is cutting off the output, what I get is (consider the 3 dots at the end of a line):

Apologies if this question has been asked before. I am about to upgrade a multiuser application based on Access97 and VB6 to C# and possibly SQL Server Express.
My customer does not want to use a server based database solution ie a single instance of SQL Server, but prefers to have a common networked dataset which is accessed via user's own individual database engines. This is because of restrictions on the installation of server based apps.
Does this scenario completely rule out the use of SQL Server Express?
Thanks
Hello,
I am trying to create a trigger to update a table on a different database server. (Both databases are SQL server 7.0) Does anyone know the syntax of how to implement this?
Any help is appreciated!!
Thanks,

Scenerio : To keep a very large system running optimally in a VM cluster, Take PR01 and make PR02, PR03, PR04. Distribute the 45 databases and 9T+ of disk across multiple VM guest.
Each PR## is a SQL Server 2012 Enterprise guest on a VM 5.1 cluster.
So instead of PR01 needed 16 core and 128g of memory, each one will have 4 core and 32g of memory. Making VM HA more manageable. (yes, DRS rules will apply). Also provides more HBA paths and distributes i/o over more physical disk on the SAN.
Instead of a connection string having to know PR01.dbo.UserDB01, PR02.dbo.UserDB03, ect the connection would be PRDB.dbo.UserDB01. That way if needed 1) UserDB can be moved to any of the PR## 2) new PR05, PR06 can be added as needed. The end user and processes are not allowed to touch system databases, no PR## will have a user DB called the same name.
There are seperate VM guests on other VM clusters and Citrix servers that need access to PRDB. As things expand and move around, none of the connection strings need to be changed.
I am looking into RadWare and modifing level 7 information, but that is iffy and $$$$$$.
Hello ,
I would like a script for MSSQL 2000 for collection of utilization data for cpu and ram. I need to have the data from several servers.
This data for all servers should be stored in a database. I am looking for 10 minute increments.
How can I go about this.
Thanks
Hi all!
I'm trying to get some XML data into SQL Server but i ran into problem when inserting the data (multiple orders with multiple order details) using a single sproc. Is it possible, or do I have to do in some other way? :confused:
I simplified my example to this:
-----------------------------
--CREATE PROCEDURE sp_InsertOrders AS
DECLARE @docHandle INT, @xmlDoc VARCHAR(4000), @orderID INT
--DROP TABLE #Orders
CREATE TABLE #Orders
(
OrderId SMALLINT IDENTITY(1,1),
FkCustomerID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
OrderDate DATETIME NOT NULL
)
--DROP TABLE #OrderDetails
CREATE TABLE #OrderDetails
(
OrderDetailsId SMALLINT IDENTITY(1,1),
FkOrderID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
ProductID SMALLINT NOT NULL,
UnitPrice SMALLINT NOT NULL
)
Set @xmlDoc = '
<Orders>
<Order CustomerID="1" OrderDate="2004-04-01">
<OrderDetails ProductID="6" UnitPrice="19"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="3" UnitPrice="11"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="9" UnitPrice="7"/>
</Order>
<Order CustomerID="2" OrderDate="2004-04-12">
<OrderDetails ProductID="2" UnitPrice="24"/>
<OrderDetails ProductID="4" UnitPrice="13"/>
</Order>
</Orders>'
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @docHandle OUTPUT, @xmlDoc
INSERT INTO #Orders (FkCustomerID, OrderDate)
SELECT CustomerID, OrderDate
FROM OpenXML(@docHandle, 'Orders/Order', 3)
WITH (
CustomerID INTEGER,
OrderDate DATETIME
)
SET @OrderID = @@IDENTITY;
--INSERT INTO #OrderDetails (@OrderID, ProductID, UnitPrice)
SELECT @OrderID AS OrderID, ProductID, UnitPrice
FROM OpenXML(@docHandle, 'Orders/Order/OrderDetails', 3)
WITH (
ProductID INTEGER,
UnitPrice INTEGER
)
-----------------------------
All orders are inserted first which makes the use of @@IDENTITY incorrect (it works fine if you insert a single order with multiple order details). Since it was quite some time since I last worked with SQL I am not sure if am doing it the right way... :confused: :confused: Anybody out there who knows how to solve the problem?
Cheers,
Christian
Hey Guys - I was just wondering - if at work you have started to use Linux Servers - and if so, which Distribution of Linux and for what purpose. Cheers - Mark Smith

Got a Table_A in the form of:
Cust_ID
Cust_Name
and another Table_B as:
Recording_Date
Invoice_ID
Cust_ID
Cust_Address
In such a case let's say I need a View to represent the columns:
Cust_ID (From Table_A)
Cust_Name (From Table_A)
Cust_Address (From Table_B)
However, with the Customers changing their addresses and having multiple records of different dates in Table_B how to reflect the Latest address of the same in the requisite View?In other words Cust_Id (AB), Cust_Name (CD), who as per Table_B have 100 records with three different addresses (EF, GH & IJ) spread over two years. How to fetch the only latest address in this case? i.e. a record in View_C as:
Cust_ID
Cust_Name
Cast_Address
AB
CD
IJ
I am using the following code to get the next immediate parent of a customer in the hierarchy and it works fine. However, it works only for one customer at a time (i made this a scalar function and I pass the customer id as shown below).
How can I modify this so that i can get each customer and its next immediate parent (all of them in one shot in a single data set)?
WITH my_cte (CustomerID, ParentID, Level)
AS
(
SELECT CustomerID, ParentID, 0 AS Level
FROM [dbo].MyTable
WHERE CustomerID = @CustomerID
UNION ALL
SELECT CustomerID, ParentID, Level + 1
FROM [dbo].MyTable e
INNER JOIN my_cte AS cte ON e.CustomerID = cte.ParentID
)
select CustomerID from my_cte WHERE Level <> 0 AND Level = (SELECT MIN(Level) FROM my_cte WHERE Level <> 0)
I have a report that was designed using SQL Reporting Services that sits on a SQL reporting server. It's nothing too exciting, it is essentially a three page application with legal jumbo on pages 2 and 3 and applicant data in fields on page 1.
We use rectangles to force page breaks to page 2 and to page 3.
When running the report on the report server, it shows and prints fine.
When running the report from the QA website internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from the production website from a machine internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from outside of the company network, the report is jacked. It obliterates large chunks of text, crams text together, and creates blank pages.
I need help in determining where I even begin with trouble shooting this!
Does fetch status in nested loops conflict?I have a script that should output a cluster record line and for each cluster record it must create a line for each household in the cluster. All the data is pulled from one table, 'LFS_APRIL_2015.dbo.LISTING'.This is the script:
--VARIABLE DECLARATION
DECLARE @CLUSTER FLOAT, @HOUSEHOLD_NUMBER FLOAT, @FULL_ADDRESS CHAR(50), @HEAD_NAME CHAR(24)--CLUSTER LOOP
DECLARE CLUSTER_CURSOR CURSOR FOR
SELECT [LFS_APRIL_2015].[dbo].[LISTING].CLUSTER
from [LFS_APRIL_2015].[dbo].[LISTING] where CLUSTER IS NOT NULL and DISTRICT = 1
OPEN CLUSTER_CURSOR
[code]...
It appears however that the clusters are being repeated.
I need the rows updated today in catalogue table irrelevant of timing. I tried all the below queries.
select * from CATALOGUE where CAT_DATE=CONVERT(datetime, CONVERT(varchar, GETDATE(), 101))
select * from CATALOGUE where CAT_DATE= CONVERT(date, getdate())
select * from CATALOGUE where CAT_DATE= cast(GETDATE() as date)
I am getting output only if the information updated on 04/21/2015 00.00.00.000 but not for other timings, For example
04/21/2015 03.30.00.000, 04/21/2015 07.17.00.000 and all.
How can I retrieve all the records updated today.
I seem to have a few problems with the below double cursor procedure. Probably due to the fact that I have two while loops based on fetch status. Or???
What I want to do is select out a series of numbers in medlemmer_cursor(currently set to only one number, for which I know I get results) and for each of these numbers select their MCPS code and gather these in a single string.
For some reason the outpiut (the insert into statement) returns the correct number 9611 but the second variable @instrumentlinje remains empty.
If I test the select clause for 9611, it gets 4 lines. So to me its like the "SELECT @instrumentlinje = @instrumentlinje + ' ' + @instrument" statement doesn't execute.
DELETE FROM ALL_tbl_instrumentkoder
DECLARE @medlem int
