Unable To Truncate Everything From Tempdb Online Log

Mar 27, 2006

Hey guys,

I'm having difficulty completely truncating my tempdb online log. It sits at 25%, and remains allocated even after I've truncated the log with backup log tempdb with truncate_only. Now, I would assume this to be normal if there is a spid who hasn't commited or rolled back a transaction, or if checkpoint hasn't run. However, running DBCC opentran('tempdb') shows me that there are no open transactions at that time, and checkpoint appears to be running fine.

Can anyone give me any hints on which way I should point with my investigation.

Regards,
-Kilka

How Do I Shrink/recreate/truncate Tempdb

Apr 17, 2002

A customer on SQL7 has a 40GB tempdb (which is usually 2-5GB) which has filled the drive. ShrinkDb/ShrinkFile do nothing as the db has only 2GB of free space. How can I truncate the data or blitz tempdb and create a new (2-5GB) one (Stopping the server, deleteing the .mdf, starting the server creates a new tempdb with the same size as the old one!)

Tempdb - Unable To Release Space

Jun 26, 2007

Hi,



I am using SQL2005 SP1 and I have a 4Gb Tempdb (datafile) with virtually nothing in it.

I am unable to release the free space to the operating system. I have used dbcc shrinkfile...truncateonly but this has had no effect.

There is no error message and there are no open transactions, I have attempted to drop the data file by transferring to a new file but I can't because it the primary file...

Any idea would be very helpful!!



Cheers.

We have SQL cluster installed on top of windows cluster on VM environment. Node1 and Node2 under Windows Failover Cluster. SQL instance is currently on node2 the instance is up and running, but SQL Cluster service remains online pending and it restarts the instance on every 5 minutes.

SQL Browser service are running successfully.TCP/IP ports are enabled and configured.If we start the SQL server agent it is on for seconds and stopped immediately  .Cluster Service is attempt to connect to the SQL service every few minutes (setting in SQL cluster resource) for the IsAlive check, if this fails then the SQL resource is restarted even if the instance was online. Hope this is what happening exactly.

'Truncate' Command Doesn't Truncate Enough

Dec 30, 2004

With a database size of almost 2 GB, I run the 'truncate table eventlog command' which completes successfully, but the database size only decreases by about 10 MB so stays too large - indeed the number of rows in the eventlog table is minimal, but the otehr tables in this database don't show such an amount of tables large enough to cause the size issue either. What could be the reason and how can I reduce it (possibly truncating another table but then which one, how could I determine which is too large and needs truncating?).

Tempdb Is Skipped. You Cannot Run A Query That Requires Tempdb

Jul 14, 2004

Has anyone seen the SQL Server error:

"tempdb is skipped. You cannot run a query that requires tempdb"?

We're running a .Net web application with a SQL Server 2000 backend, and we get the error intermittently. Restarting the SQL Server service seems to fix it, as it causes tempdb to be rebuilt, but this isn't a long term solution. Any direction or hints would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

To Truncate Or Not To Truncate: That Is The Question..

Apr 17, 2008

Hi all...

Please forgive the elementary nature of my question, but could someone please explain the differences between these two database backup types:

1. Log backup
2. Log backup no truncate



From what I understand and have read, the "no truncate" backup method keeps the entire transaction log indefinitely. Using the truncation method, the transaction log is either 1) compressed or 2) cleaned up so that any completed transactions are removed from the log. Which one of these is true?


And, for the big question: is it better to run a backup of the transaction log with truncation or not? Our current backup scheme is similar to the following:


Full backup every 24 hours
transaction log backup every hour with no truncation


Should we insert a truncation backup somewhere in here? What is the danger of removing (or compressing) parts of the transaction log? Will this affect the restore process?


Thanks in advance!

How To Get Datafile Online Again?

May 23, 2007

Hi need to something like this:

"alter database modify file (name=<name>, ONLINE)",

but it isn't possible.



Here what I did:

alter database bdj add file (name ='bdjfg1', filename='d:db
djfg1.ndf' )
to filegroup bdjfg;


alter database bdj modify file (name='bdjfg1', OFFLINE);


alter database bdj modify file (name ='bdjfg1', filename='d:db
ewdestdjfg1.ndf' );
--Msg 5056, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
--Cannot add, remove, or modify a file in filegroup 'bdjfg' because
the filegroup is offline.


alter database bdj modify filegroup bdjfg READWRITE;
--Msg 5056, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
--Cannot add, remove, or modify a file in filegroup 'bdjfg' because
the filegroup is offline.



Yes, yes and should have read the cautions section saying:

"Use this option only when the file is corrupted and can be restored. A file set to OFFLINE can only
be set online by restoring the file from backup. For more information about restoring a single file,
see RESTORE (Transact-SQL)."



But I have not an backup of the datafile, but I have the datafile itself!

What can I do to get it online again, the old location could be fine, but it would be better on an new location (thats is the reason for all the trouble, the original drive has not much space left, so I wanted to move the datafile)



What can I do, HELP

/Bjorn

Locating Database Online

Apr 20, 2006

I've just started with a company that had a web developer in to set up their site. She set it up with Coldfusion and MS SQL Server, uploaded the whole thing to their provider, then disappeared. Then the whole thing got dumped in my lap, and I'm pretty new to both SQL Server and Coldfusion.

My first question is, how can I access the SQL Server database online? It's somewhere on the web host's site, and I have the name of it and the password, but I have no clue how I'm supposed to get a look at the thing. Is there a file I should be able to find? Can anyone provide a clue?

Thanks!

I am sure that most of you will have seen this but for those of you who haven’t, its basically a dialog box where you dump you T-SQL and then tell it which system your using (ie. MS SQL). When you press the format button, it returns an almost perfectly formatted version. The link is:

Hope it helps

Online Index On Large DB (&> 4GB)

May 22, 2007

Anyone using the ONLINE=ON option on large DB's? We have a db of 5 GB and we are doing some load testing for SQL 2005. We are modifying the Index scripts for the upgrade. We will run a load with the ONLINE=ON option but just wanted to find out if anyone already is doing it on a similar scale db and has seen any issues?
Also, we have auto-update stats off at the DB level. Does setting the ONLINE=ON require turning this auto-update stats to ON too? I didnt see anything to that effect in BOL, so was wondering.

Thanks for any feedback.
