Wondering whether I can have following included in a script file:
1. set the current single user db from Full to Simple recovery mode.
2. Checkpoint and shrink the transaction log file (release all unused space)
3. set the current single user db from Simple recovery to Full recover mode.
Hi,
On SQL 2000, if I have a large transaction log for my database and I manage to fill it with a single large transaction but it is not set to autogrow, what happens?
I have several databases that perform daily backups. Ever since I installed SP2, the backup jobs are failing. The logs state that it's because the database recovery mode cannot be SIMPLE, but need to be either FULL or Bulk-Logged.
Can anyone tell me if this is true, and that I do have to change my recovery mode?
Here's the error:

Hi,
What is the impact of changing the recovery mode of a database from Full to simple? The client I am at has set their database to full recovery mode, set their log files to grow automatically. But I don't think they have ever done a backup of their transaction log (it has grown to over 19Gig, where the data portion of the database is only around 400M).
What is the impact of truncating the transaction log now? After truncating it, i would like to shrink the file to a managable number and change the recovery mode to simple (they don't need transaction log backups)
Any info on this would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Jim
When we do a full database backup manually, we are seeing the trn file reflect the current date/time, but we are not seeing the mdf reflect the new date/time. And we are not seeing the transaction log file decrease in size. the recovery mode is set to full, do we need to change to simple to see both the mdf being backup'ed?
View 5 Replies View Relatedhi,
we have a SQL Server 2000 database which we set to 'SIMPLE' recovery mode at 6pm (due to nightly large data loads). We revert back to 'FULL' recovery mode at 6am.
My understanding was that in 'SIMPLE' recovery mode, the transaction log would not grow because it would automatically be truncated after a checkpoint. However this is not the case. I thought perhaps it could be due to a long running uncomitted transaction, but when I ran 'dbcc opentran', the oldest running transactions doesn't last for more than a couple minutes. I manually run a 'checkpoint' command as well in the hope of forcing the transaction log truncation. I repeat this a couple of times to no avail. When I run 'dbcc sqlperf(logspace)' , I can still see the transaction log growing.
It is not until I run 'backup log db with truncate_only' that the transaction log gets truncated.
I do not understand, why the transaction log does not get automatically truncated in SIMPLE recovery mode?

Is this Possible, If database is in Simple recovery Mode and the ldf size gets increased?? .
mdf size : 159 GB (171,383,717,888 bytes)
ldf size : 6.46 GB (6,945,505,280 bytes).
My question is if the recovery model is in Simple Mode then why the log gets generated high.
dbcc sqlperf(logspace) --output
DATABASE Logsize(MB) Log space used(%) status
mam 6623.742
0.4305579
0
Is there any issue or it is Normal.
My understanding is that the log file is not supposed to grow if the database is under simple recovery mode.I am in a situation where the log grows if do any inserts that involve millions of rows.How do i make sure that it does not grow?

I am amazed to see this morning that log file consuming whole disk space even though the database is in simple recovery mode.
What could be the reasons to fill in the space even in simple recovery mode??
I have a small, ~10GB SQL 2008 R2 database, that was setup with simple recovery. We do full backup each night at midnight when no one is using the database. Is there any problems with doing differential backups during the day when users may be writing to the database? Could I even do hourly differential backups while users are using the database? I'm conflicted about switching over to full recovery mode and using transaction logs to have the ability restore data between backups. If I can do a couple daily differential backups while users are using the database during the day, in addition to our nightly full backups, than I live with simple recovery mode.

The DB is in simple recovery mode. There are no open transactions (used dbcc opentran).
The server is running SQL Server 2014 and the DB is in compatibility mode SQL Server 2008 (100). It was upgraded to 2014 a month or two ago.
I have tried to re-size the log to 100mb, but any way I have tried (none gave errors), the log file remains the same size. I have tied to shrink the log file (through the UI and via DBCC commands) without success; no errors, but also no change in file size.
I have checked Log Reuse Waits, just in case, and as expected it showed “NOTHING” (select log_reuse_wait_desc, name from sys.databases)
I tried running a checkpoint, but that did not allow any resize or shrink to work.
I have tied creating large transactions to move the used point in the log file, in case this was the issue. I did this by creating tables that I drop after large inserts. While it shows me that the log space % used increased, the log file still does not allow the space to be reduced.
The following is what I was using for the transactions to get the log used.
BEGIN TRAN
select a.* into testtable from sysobjects a, sysobjects b, sysobjects c
ROLLBACK TRAN
Each insert creates 93,576,664 rows.

Do I just need to continue running large transactions until the log space used gets high enough to get the “end point” in the log to really move? Is there an easier way to accomplish this (I have several DBs that have the almost identical problem), what I am using moves the Log Space Percent Used about a percent on each execution.
In C#, I can convert UTC time to a specific timezone using:
TimeZoneInfo localTimeZone = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("Pacific Standard Time");
DateTime UTCTime = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeToUtc(localTime, localTimeZone);
Is there any equivalent function in T-SQL (SQL Server 2014 / SQL Azure)?
Specifically, I want to be able to convert a time into UTC before inserting it into a table. Right now I am doing:
INSERT INTO Incident (IncidentDescription, dtOccurred)
VALUES (@IncidentDescription, DATEADD(hour, 8, @dtOccurred))
I don't want to hardcode "8" and I want it to adjust for daylight savings time (DST).
Is there any concise solution that does not require me to define SQL functions or have lookup tables? I also don't want to use the difference between GETDATE() and SYSUTCDATETIME(), because the timezone of my server is not my local timezone.

What are the pros and cons of putting the system databases in full recovery mode
I am asked by my manager to keep everything simple and uniform.We have all the user databases in Full recovery mode and he wants all the system databases as well to be full recovery mode.
I would like to get the points where in i can argue that, there is no point in having the system databases in full recovery mode.Unfortunately i dont see anything related to this in BOL or internet.
Plz help
Thanks
Sreenath
1st question I have to ask is:
Is Emergency Mode the same as Bypass Recovery Mode?
2nd:
I have a SQL2005 Database that was suspect this morning. I put the database in Emergency Mode: alter database {dbname} set emergency.
I did a dbcc checkdb on the database and found some corrupt indexes. I attempted to do a dbreindex on the table and got the error:
Could not run BEGIN TRANSACTION in database '{dbname}' because the database is in bypass recovery mode.
How can I put the database in single_user mode and to a point where I can reindex the 1 table that is causing the problems. I would even be willing to drop the indexes and re-create.
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

We have a SQL Server 7.0 database running with trunc. log on chkpt andselect into/bulkcopy checked and need to develop a backup strategy.One of our DBAs insists that since the transaction log is beingtruncated, we can't do a hot backup (a FULL backup in multiuser mode)because if a transaction comes through during the backup it will leavethe backup in an inconsistent state. I'm skeptical, but I don't knowhow SQL Server 7 avoids this problem.If SQL 7 is not truncating the transaction log, it uses thetransaction log to roll forward changes that occurred during thebackup. Obviously if it's truncating the log it must have some way toapply these transactions anyway (such as not doing a checkpoint duringthe backup, backing up the log at each checkpoint, etc.).Can anyone confirm that a hot backup will be valid when trunc. log onchkpt is checked? Does anyone know how SQL 7 accomplishes this?Thanks!James

I run 2 steps viz with NORECOVERY and with RECOVERY in sequence as SQP jobs. The 2nd step fails some times. When it starts failing, I run full backup of the production server again and the 2nd step starts succeding. Unless I run the full backup the 2nd step keeps on failing.

I was wondering whether anyone ever dealt with encryption that are visacompliant with credit card numbers:On 3.4 of this document(http://usa.visa.com/download/busine...ty_Standard.pdf)It states the encryption:One-way hashes (hashed indexes), such as SHA-1- Truncation- Index tokens and PADs, with the PADs being securely stored- Strong cryptography, such as Triple-DES 128-bit or AES 256-bit withassociated keymanagement processes and procedures1. One way hashes cannot be decrypted so this won't work2. Triple DES works however we will need to encrypt SSN. Triple DESdoesn't encrypt 2 values the same way, so we cannot use it as anindex key that we wanted to. The decrypted value comes out the samehowever the encrypted values are always different. We can't do tablescans for a SSN look up.3. Truncation - I have no idea4. Index token or PAD seems like one way encryption and never can bedecrypted (not sure what this is for if it can't be decrypted)So how do I get this to work?? It doesn't say RSA is compliant either.If you think RSA is okay, where does it EXPLICITLY say that on thisdocument???:D
