Unallocated Space Anomaly
Jul 20, 2005
At my current workplace, whenever I check table sizes using the
'reserved' column from sysindexes, or sp_spaceused, I get a total for
all user tables which exceeds the physical size of the database.
Running sp_spaceused with no parameteres, I get a NEGATIVE value for
unallocated space in the database, but only see this if I return the
results in GRID format in QA (text format gives less output):
DatabaseName DatabaseSize Unallocated Space
xxxxx_xxxxx11502.38 MB-4874.80 MB
Reserved Data index_size unused
16602800 KB7013752 KB2381904 KB7207144 KB
If I re-run sp_spaceused with the @updateusage='TRUE' option, this
output gets corrected to:
DatabaseName DatabaseSize Unallocated Space
xxxxx_xxxxx11502.38 MB2773.76 MB
Reserved Data index_size unused
8770680 KB6928168 KB1808096 KB34416 KB
which shows a substantial difference in the Reserved/Data/Index/Unused
sizes.
This happens every day - any ideas about:
1) Why this might be happening on such a large scale, and
2) Is it conceivable that these discrepancies in space allocation
information could be causing performance problems? I can imagine that
if the database is trying to locate free pages on extents yet its
internal view of these doesn't match reality then this could impede
data insertion.
Offers anybody?

I've gone through the forum and have seen several others with a similar situation. I recently noticed my .mdf file grew to 200GB yet the data in the file is only about 40GB. I run sp_spaceused and get the following: database_size = 176GB, unallocated space = 134GB, reserved = 43GB, data = 17GB, index_size = 19GB, unused = 6GB.
I've tried "dbcc shrinkdatabase (mydb, truncateonly)", tried restarting server, tried running a maintenance plan including a reindex of the database, and I don't know what to do next.
Does anyone know how to free up this space?

HI,
I am short of space on one of our sqlservers and I want to claim unallocated space for one of my databases and give it back to OS.
I guess it is relatively simple task to do but unfortunately I am unable to find such a command. Can somebody help me and provide me that command.

Hi all,
When I am rebuilding the indexes on the tables, I am getting lot of free space( unallocated) on the database.
Before rebuilding the indexes , the size of the database = 385 Gb
After rebuilding the indexes, the size jumps to = 572 Gb (i.e.) This means 187 Gb of unallocated space .
The Command use to rebuild indexes is:
USE [databasename]
GO
ALTER INDEX [PK_index] ON [dbo].[tablename] REBUILD WITH
( PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON, ONLINE = OFF )
GO
So, every time we rebuild indexes, we have to shrink the database
(or)
Is there anything else ,I should be doing.
Thanks.

Hi All,
When i run sp_spaceused on one of my database, PROD, it gives the following output
database_name: PROD
database_size: 4268.00 MB
unallocated space: -789.82 MB
reserved: 4654920 KB
data: 2929008 KB
index_size: 327272 KB
unused: 1398640 KB
Why is that the unallocated space is negative ?
On the drive where the datafiles resides there is enough free space . Also, the datafile and transaction are set to auto grow with unlimited file growth
FYI - the OS is Windows 2000 and the DB is SQL Server 2000 with SP3
Appreciate your time and help on this.

I am trying to track unallocated space (because on my database growth is not kicking in) So using below query but not working!!! Is there any way I can track 'database size' and 'unallocated space' on a single database?
create table A(
Rundate DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT(GETDATE())
,DatabaseName varchar(100)
,Database_size varchar (100)
,unallocatedSpace varchar (100)
,reserved varchar(100)

Morning forum,
I'm having a problem to which I'm sure the answer is simple...
All I want is a list of databases on my server with their allocated size and the free space within. Something similar to the first table that sp_spaceused gives you but on a server wide scale.
As I say, I'm sure there's a simple solution out there, but alas Google has failed me.
Thanks in advance,
Dan.

I've sure I have a problem that hasn't been addressed on the forum exactly. I have a SQL 2000 database that the SSIS designer sees, meaning it is a member of the 'Server Explorer' group. I am trying to update my SQL 2005 database based on values from a SQL 2000 database table using an OLE DB Command data flow transformation. I use a SELECT query in the OLE DB Source control to get the required columns. I use an UPDATE statement to identify where to place the columns retrieved from the source. I get an error that tells me that the update statement fails because it can't identify the SQL 2000 database I am trying to use. The highlighted part of the error is something I haven't seen in the similar posts I've read. And, it's ironic because the server is actually 'linked'.

Hi,
I have been trying to use the Clustering algorithm for Anomaly Detection, but it has been quite difficult to get correct results for PredictCaseLikelihood.
Using a very large number of clusters helped, but there are other problems.
The algorithm does not take into account all the columns in my nested table, but only uses Exists/Not Exists for the nested table key column. In my case the nested table contains also a column with a count of key attribute.
I am about to abandon the Sql Data Mining.
Does anyone have more insights into tuning the Clustering algorithm for anomaly detection?
Thanks

I am doing monthly reporting for whole months, all starting on the 1st of each month and finishing on the last day of the month
I use dateAdd to calculate the end of the month - so I add 1 month and subtract 1 second (start time is always 00:00:00).
--dFrom is Jan 01 2008 00:00:00
select @dTo=dateadd(ss,-1,dateadd(mm,1, @dFrom))
when I print dTo it is not Jan 31 2008 23:59:59 but Feb 01 2008.
Why is this?
Only starts to behave when I set the number of seconds I am adding from -1 to -31.
Time of date is unimportant: as storing all dates as midday (any data type which ONLY supports date? not interested in the time really).
Subtracting one minute from midnight works fine, but that said: I am curious to understand why I am getting the funny behaviour above.

Hi. I'm very new to SQL Server and would greatly appreciate any advice with regard to my two questions below.
I've recently been given responsibility for a pair of clustered Windows 2003 servers running SQL Server 2005. Looking through SQL Server Management Studio, I found the following three maintenance plans:
- System Maintenance Plan (all system databases)
- Plan 1 (1 database)
- Plan 2 (4 databases).
All three maintenace plans had the following elements configured, in the following order:
- Check Database Integrity
- Backup Database (Full)
- Shrink Database
- Update statistics
- Clean Up History
with the exception that Plan 1 doesn't have a 'Shrink Database' task (because, I'm told, its data is pretty static), but none had a Maintenance Cleanup Task, so I added one to each plan specifying 14 days of old backups to be kept in all cases except Plan 1, where I limited it to 2 days, the database being over 7 GB in size. All links between tasks in all plans are AND constraints, value 'Completion'. All .BAKs are written to tape by Symantec Backup Exec as part of the daily backup.
Two questions from this:
1. Since .BAKs are written to separate folders for each database, do I need, for example, four Maintenance Cleanup Tasks for the Plans covering four databases - one for each folder/database? I can't see a way of specifying that a Maintenance Cleanup Task should apply to multiple databases or search subfolders based on database name, so I assume I need four consecutive Maintenance Cleanup Tasks within a single plan? Is this the way to do it?
2.The data displayed when I right-click a maintenance plan and choose View History shows:
date and time run
plan name
task name
duration
log type
log source
Since I added a Maintenance Cleanup Task to each plan, the only task shown in the Task Name column is Cleanup History (set to 'Older than 7 days'), and the duration is 00:00:00, where previously all tasks were shown and the overall duration was over a minute.
However, the .BAK files are being created (size looks OK), the application log contains entries suggesting the backups and other tasks completed successfully, and if I expand the SQL Server Logs node and view the current file I can see entries which give the same 'success' messages (presumably this log is the source of the 'success' messages in the application log?).
Why does there appear to be an anomaly between the 'View History' display and the SQL Server Log and application log? Should I be worried, or is what I can see in the SQL Server Logs and application log sufficient grounds for a good night's sleep?
Thanks,
Ed

To set up the problem, paste this into QA:if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id =object_id(N'[dbo].[WorkOTRate]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable')= 1)drop table [dbo].[WorkOTRate]GOCREATE TABLE [dbo].[WorkOTRate] ([TimeFrom] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL ,[TimeTo] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL ,[RateMultiplier] [float] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOINSERT INTO dbo.WorkOTRate (TimeFrom, TimeTo, RateMultiplier)VALUES ('18:00:00', '23:59:59', 1.2)SELECT TimeFrom, TimeTo, RateMultiplier FROM dbo.WorkOTRateThis gives the following result:1900-01-01 18:00:001900-01-02 00:00:001.2So, it's storing the time 23:59:59 as midnight. That's odd.(NOTE: If you rescript the table using datetime instead ofsmalldatetime types, the data are stored correctly.)It gets worse (or better, if you like perversity).If I go to Enterprise Manager, right-click on WorkOTRate and select"Open Table" -> "Return All Rows" I get:01/01/1900 18:00:0002/01/19001.2So, I bite the bullet and change the two column types to datetime,clear out the old data and run the INSERT again. The data looks betternow.Go back to the view in EM.If I put the cursor in a new row, and type into the TimeFrom column18:30:00 and the TimeTo column 19:30:00 and the RateMultiplier column1.3, and refresh the data by pressing the red shriek !, I get this:01/01/1900 18:00:0001/01/1900 23:59:591.218:30:0019:30:001.3If I re-run the SELECT from the QA, I get this:1900-01-01 18:00:00.0001900-01-01 23:59:59.0001.21899-12-30 18:30:00.0001899-12-30 19:30:00.0001.3Is it just me, or does this seem to be remarkably inconsistent?Edward

Background: We have SQL Server 2005 x64 running on a quad-core (dual dual-core) machine with 16GB of RAM. The database is about 10GB in size and we execute around a million stored procedures a day on it. Our application uses about 1000 different stored procedures on this machine. The application is a transactional B2B web-app with about 2000 users.
The problem we have is a really odd one that I can't seem to find much information on. We have a small number (3-4) of stored procedures that's exibiting this problem.
The stored proc in question takes on average 100ms CPU time to execute. It's a fairly complex stored proc, about 300 lines long, 6-7 select statements and it uses temp tables. No updates / inserts except for on the temp tables. It's executed about 5000 times per day. About once a week, though, execution times will suddenly jump up to 3000 ms average. This happens randomly during the day, although it seems to happen more often on Monday mornings (the DB is mostly unutilized over the weekend)
To fix this, I force the DB to recalculate the execution plan by adding / removing (depending what I did last time around) the line 'set arithabort on' at the top of the stored procedure. I have no idea why this works, but it does. Within seconds of changing it, the stored proc execution time will go back to it's normal range of 60-150ms.
I've tried setting the execution plan of the stored procedure but I can't get it to work - the execution plan is very long and I don't know how to debug the error I get.
What is happening? This happens with a couple of stored procedures - usually the more complex ones. Has anyone seen anything like this?

I am generating a Report from Sql Data Source in Sql Server 2005 and viewing the Report in Report viewer control of Visual Studio 2005.
The data in the Data Source contains string with multiple spaces (for example €œ Test String €œ) but when they get rendered in Report viewer control, multiple spaces gets converted to single space €? Test String €œ.
I tried following solutions
1) Replacing spaces with €œ €?
2) Inserting <pre> tag before the string and </pre> tag after the string (Also tried <Pre> instead of <pre>)
But in all the cases result is same. The Report Viewer control is showing €œ €? instead of space and €œ<Pre>€? tag instead of preserving spaces.
Please provide me a solution so that spaces can be preserved in Report Viewer.

Hi.. I was doing a good maintenance on my DB and my trans log LDF keep growing until 30GB but my DB data file MDF is only 2GB. I found the two following method to reduce my log size.
Method 1: I used veritas to backup log file with truncate
Method 2: I used the shrink database option in Enterprises manager to shrink it (file chosen=log , use default option)
After doing that, I found my LDF log file is still about the same size=27GB but when I see clearly, from the shrink database windows, the log spaced used reduced to only 100MB, the allocation log space is still 27GB. Why? How to make the LDF smaller to be the around the same size as the space used 100MB?

Hello,
Somebody know how to reduce the space allocated for the transaction log space for my SQL_DB ?
3700 MB allocated but only 100 MB used and 3600 MB are free !
Transaction log properties :
Automatically grow file are filled
file growth by percent = 5%
maximum file size - restrict filegrowth = 3700 MB (we can't reduce it !)
Thank you for your precious help !

I need to create a proc. which would send a warning via xp_sendmail when the database space gets within 10% of allocated space. I have written one which uses sp_spaceused however this proc requires DBCC udateusage to be run in order to get accurate results. This would work but i don't know how quickly the data returned by sp_spaceused becomes corrupt therefore how often DBCC should be run. I ran DBCC on our main production server and it took a considerable amount of time. Basically I am looking for another way to do this without using sp_spaceused. Any ideas

database size = data size plus reserved space minus etc.
Somehow it is not clear to me how it is split up.

I have a 12 GB database growing at 25 MB daily. The server will soon run out of space, 3 GB left. I cannot buy a new server or new RAID subsystems at once, and want to prevent the server being filled up fast.
What are the best ways? Can you share with me some of your thougts or comment on the following:
1) Archive old data in many tables across servers -
Can SQL Server do it directly across server or we need to select into temp database and back it up to tape or using bcp out and in?
2) Put the >9Gb disk dump to another server. The daily disk dump takes up a lot of space.
3) Dump to the tape directly, saving 9 GB disk space of dump device.
4) ? ?

Which table in the master database has the information about free space available for a particular database? I am trying to find the information that is displayed under the general tab in EM when you look at the database properties.
thanks.
