Hi,
Can anybody suggest any stored procedure name or C# code to find the Sql database size (database size as well as transaction log)? I want to migrate some data from my local database to the web server. Before migration, i want to know the database size on the web.
Thanks and regards,

Hi!
I needed to find out the approx size of my database, based on the number of rows, etc...
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks.
I had several databases under sqlserver ce 2.0 (in my Pocket PC) which contained ntext fields. The size of the databases varies from 50,000 to 700,000 records. The size of an ntext field is from 4 bytes to 2 megabytes.
When I recreated my databases under sql server 2005 mobile on my desktop using VS2005 (see my post just under this one), I saw a big difference between the old and new database sizes. This problem was mentioned in one of the posts in this forum and the reply was to replace ntext data with ncharvar type.
Since most of my data was longer than 4000 bytes (which is the limit for nvarchar type), I couldn't use this suggestion. Instead, I changed my ntext type to image type and used a GetByte conversion.
No change! The size of the new database is still 50 % larger than the original. Since the difference is around 300 MB, this is an unacceptable thing.
Now, I either wait from somebody to suggest a new solution (apart from keeping the ntext data in a separate binary file and keep index of the records of this file in the records of sql database) or, most preferably, have
Microsoft solve this problem as soon as possible.
Thanks for any help in advance

Hi,
I have to create a table which contains 5 rows with columnsize varchar(8000) each. When I try to execute the 'create table..' statement, I receive the following error. What should I do?
"The total row size (40040) for table 'Org_welcome_text' exceeds the maximum number of bytes per row (8060). Rows that exceed the maximum number of bytes will not be added."
Thanks,

Hi all
Last week I was moving my site to a new server
My SQL database in old host without Log file was 180 MB, and after shrink it became 170 MB,
I asked my old host support to give me DB back up for moving to new server, it was friday and they told me we will do that on monday, but I wanted it soon, so I logged in ino Enterprise manager to my old server sql, and also I opened connection to my new server sql ,I go to Export Wizard of my database on old host so I chose to export all of the tables from my database on old host to a new database on new server,
it took about 2 hour (with a 128 kb net connection) after finishing I tested the new database it was working fine and all of the tables and rows was in new database,
but some thing that is wondering is the size of the database the new database on new server is 109 MB now :shocked:
why ?
I have shrinked the old database and without log files it was 170 MB so why on my destination database its 109 MB , and very thing is working fine
I want to know what was in old database that increased file size about 60 MB ?
and can I use my new database which its size is 109 MB ?
Please tell me soon , I need that
Hi. I am trying to get a row count of each row of each table in the database. Is that possible? Using a SP or UDFS? I dont want the column size of each table but the total datasize of each row.So for example if I have 5 rows each in 3 tables I need a query that will return 15 rows with the size of each row(size of all coumn data summed together). Thanks.

Good evening,
I have a SQL Server 2005 database installed, serving as back-end DB, for an ASP.Net 2 application. Currently the database size is nearly 800Mb with recovery mode set to Simple. Every single day a maintenance job runs shrinking the db size, reorganizing indexes and statistics, etc.
Since I'm not an expert in SQL Server Administration I'm trying to figure out if this space is really necessary. The previous version of this application was running under PHP5 and MySql 4. After a year, with pretty much the same load as the current version, the database size was arround 370Mb. With the SQL Server it's already -800Mb after 3 months.
Pretty much my guess is that I'm doing something wrong. I just don't have any idea of what might be going on. If one of you guys could throw in some ideas on how to check if this size was really necessary and, if not, how to reduce it, I'd be very thankful.
Best regards,

Hi,We are in the process of selecting a database for a data warehouse typeapplication. I want to get a feel for how big can a SQL Server databaseget. As per Microsoft, it can be multiple terabytes. Can you tell meWhat is the biggest size SQL server database you manage? (I understandbig is a relative term. I consider 500+ Gig as big).Do you see any major performance problems due to size of the database?(Given that the database is designed optimally).Really appreciate your help.Thanks,Joseph

HI Everyone,
I understand that there is a 4GB size limitation on SQL Server Express edition. right?
What I want to know is what if a database file created in SQL Express is hosted with SQL Server 2005 will the file still have the 4 GB size limitations?
Thanks
One of our database is approaching the gigabyte size. I know that microsoft claims to support terabyte databases with sql server 7.0. I was wondering if anyone could tell me about the max size of database they have used on an OLTP site without running into problems. ofcourse with SQL Server.
thanks,
rachna.
I designed a database for daily reporting system. It involves mainly INSERT operations and data retrieval. The problem here is the size of database is growing rapidly beyond the estimation. I changed the datatypes from int to tinyint, even after that i didn't find any difference in size of the database. Please suggest me solution by which i can optimize the database size also suggest me some tips by which i can estimate the database size. Please respond at the earliest possible.

I am having a bit of a mare on the database backup front - i.e. monster
DB, not a great deal of space to back it up into.
As I do the backup, the file on the disk seems to stay at 2KB
How does the file get written? Is there a temp somewhere first?
Cheers in advance - Dave

Hi,
i use this script that show me the size of each table and do the sum of all the table size.
SELECT
X.[name],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[rows]), 1), '.00', '') AS [rows],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[reserved]), 1), '.00', '') AS [reserved],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[data]), 1), '.00', '') AS [data],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[index_size]), 1), '.00', '') AS [index_size],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[unused]), 1), '.00', '') AS [unused]
FROM
(SELECT
CAST(object_name(id) AS varchar(50)) AS [name],
SUM(CASE WHEN indid < 2 THEN CONVERT(bigint, [rows]) END) AS [rows],
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, reserved)) * 8 AS reserved,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, dpages)) * 8 AS data,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, used) - CONVERT(bigint, dpages)) * 8 AS index_size,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, reserved) - CONVERT(bigint, used)) * 8 AS unused
FROM sysindexes WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE sysindexes.indid IN (0, 1, 255)
AND sysindexes.id > 100
AND object_name(sysindexes.id) <> 'dtproperties'
GROUP BY sysindexes.id WITH ROLLUP) AS X
ORDER BY X.[name]
the problem is that the sum of all tables is not the same size when i make a full database backup.
example of this is when i run this query against my database i see a sum of 111,899 KB that they are 111MB,but when
i do full backup to that database the size of this full backup is 1.5GB,why is that and where this size come from?

I am having an issue in determining the correct size of a table.
I have a tableA in some DB on transaction server (Enterprise Edition), this table is being replicated in reporting server DB (Standard edition).
When I check the space used by this table in both the databases i see noticeable difference.
I am using EXEC sp_spaceused 'tableA' to determine the space.
Transaction Server
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
name rows reserveddata index_size unused
TableA1439999 695416 KB507048 KB182912 KB 5456 KB
Reporting Server
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
name rows reserveddata index_size unused
TableA1439999 656904 KB483664 KB172680 KB 560 KB
So I wanted to know what could be the possible reasons for this difference ?

Hi,
I am using
exec sp_helpdb
go
dbcc sqlperf(logspace) for
getting database size and log size. Is this gives the correct

Thanks in Advance.

I'm getting this error while trying to insert records into a SQL Server Compact Edition database. I have pasted my connection string that was used when creating the database as well as for accessing that same database from my Windows application.
Thanks for any help any of you can give!
Data Source=OnTheGo.sdf;Encrypt Database=True;Password=<password>;Max Database Size=4091
Hello,
I am developing a smart device application with Visual Studio .Net 2005 and SQL Server Compact Edition database. And also using merge replication to synchronize the data from the mobile device to the SQL Server.
My database size is around 350MB. So when I am trying to synchronize this is the error message that I get.
" The database file is larger than the configured maximum database size. The setting takes effect on the first concurrent database connection only.[Required Max Database size ( in MB; 0 if unknown)=129].
I tried changing the Max database size in the connection string and my connection string looks as follows and still did not have any luck.
connstr= "Data Source=Storage CardItems.sdf;Max Database Size=500;"
Any help regarding this would be appreciated.
Thank you
