Hello,
We have around 500+ databases on the server, and I need to run the backup of all databases. How can I find out how much space is used on all of them? Is there any command I can issue without specifying db_name separately each time? I am trying to understand if I have available space on the disk for the backup.
Hi,
I am trying to do this:
UPDATE Users SET uniqueurl = replaceAllEmptySpacesInUniqueURL('uniqueurl')
What would be the syntax.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
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.
I am using the below script to get space alerts  and now i am interested in sending alerts  if for any drive space available is Less than 10% or 15%.. how to convert beelow code to find in %Â

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?
This is driving me bananas. Can't find any info on this anywhere....SQL 2000 seems to replace double space with a single space when I seta varchar field to " " (2spaces), it only stores " " (1space). Whyon earth would microsoft do this? If I save 2 spaces - I WANT TO SEE2 SPACES!!!!Can anyone help? Is this a database setting? Is this due to usingvarchar?Any help appreciated.Colin Hale

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 !

Dear All
My query is reagaing the SQL server space
Imagine a situation where i have purchased server space of 50 kb for my sql server
and at the time of hosting of my web site the size of the data base was 40 kb, once it is hosted
and as the data of users and visitors get stored into the database,it gets expands and the size if the size of the database exceeds the
the occupied space,will my database get stuck or..any other option to overcome this senario or Do i have to get more space periodically.
Help me out
Thank you
I have a sql server 2005 DB.When I define a column as a nvarchar(50) and fill it with one character (for approx 10000 rows), how much space is taken physically on the HD?Also, if I then redefine the column (as it only contains 1 char) to nvarchar(1), is the physical size on the HD reduced immediately or do I have to perform some special action?

Hi,
I have a 250 GB database and not much space left on the disk drive. I want to run SQLMAINT to do optimization and integrity checks on this db. My question is : How much work space does SQLMAINT need to perform these tasks?.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I've just checked the properties of one of our DB's running on SQL2008 & the properties within SSMS are showing 0.00MB space available.
The DB is setup using the simple Recovery model & is being backed up nightly.
The Data file has been set at an intial size of 9449MB with Autogrowth by 10 percent unrestricted growth.
The Log File has been set at an intial size of 14199MB with Autogrowth by 10 percent unrestricted growth.
I have checked the SQL logs and no errors are being reported. There is 79.8gb available on the partition where the DB resides.
Hi, we have a SqlServer instance in production containing around 10databases.It has just been realised that all the db's are held on the small c:partition with only a gig or so of space left.On the server there is another partition and another hard disk bothwill ample space (few hundred gigs).What would be the best way of getting the data onto the otherpartitions with minimal impact on the applications. Can we move theprimary data files for each db? Should we just create secondary datafiles on the big partitions for all the db's? Is there a method ofmoving all the data at once?Any ideas on how we should approach this?(ps we dont have control of the sqlserver its outsourced, so simplerthe better).Thanks,Jim

I started working in one company as a DBA where the Ex-DBA left the company long time back. So all the databases have huge transaction logs (50-80GB) in size. But the problem is-
1. HDD space on the m/c its only 45GB. When I ran TLog backup cmd on that m/c, the hdd space was started reducing around 1GB/min and in few minutes I saw hdd space left is only 15GB so I stopped cmd (It had completed only 37% of the backup).
Second time again I tried to take TLog backup on hdd placed on n/w path but again I saw it was eating local disk space very fast.
So my question is, Is it like when you take Tlog backup of size say 80GB it will use 80GB local hdd as a temporary storage?
2. For this I found 1 workaround- I took Full backup then I restored it on some other m/c, then shrun the log files to few MB's then I again took Full backup of this shrunk db and restored it on production.
Is this only solution to my problem(Very less space on production's local HDD)? If anyone knows better soln than this then plz suggest me.
Thanks in Advance.
How to increase disk-space of database in sql server?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am using DTS for importing a table from FileMaker Pro (a database application) to SQL Server 2000. The problem is that everything gets imported correctly but in some values, it shows a box type character for a blank space. It does not happen for all the blank spaces. Because of this, that value is cannot be checked in the WHERE clause until I use a LIKE and % for that blank space.
I copied the value and pasted in Notepad, it only shows a blank space. What is this character?
Can someone help...
Thanks,

In an Intranet Application using Win NT, Apache, Tomcat and SQL Server, the memory space used by SQL Server is drastically increasing and finally the system crashes. Nearly 40 people are accessing the system. The hardware configuration is P2 processor with 393 MB RAM and 2GB Virtual Memory. SQL Server,Web server and Servlet Engine are running on same machine.
Within three hours, SQL Server occupies 200M memory and the system perfomance comes down and finally the system stopes the tomcat servlet engine.
Anybody have any idea on this? We have nearly 1500 JSP pages,200 Bean files and 300 tables in SQL Server.

I have a quick question maybe someone can answer me:
Suppose I have a database with data and log on same device, by default,
3 segments are created: system,default and logsegment.
Is the allocation , or any limit, among these segments(i.e. for system table, other table and indexes , log) done by the system ? or will the space required be allocated when they are needed ?
(i.e. I can have a situation of 10% database space used for data, 90% used for logging and I can also have 90% used for data, 10% used for log ?)
Is there any control us we can make ?
Of course, for recovery and performance reason, it is always recommended to have data and log on 2 diff. device.
Thanks for anybody that can help me with this.
When I double click on a database in the Enterprise Manager and the "Database Space Available" (in the Database tab) always shows 0.00 MB even though there is space available. This only happens to one of our database. The data device is 1.8GB and log device is 360MB and I've allocated all the space from device to database.
We're using SQL Server 6.5 sp3 in NT 4.0 sp3.
Anybody knows why is SQL Server reporting 0.00MB when you know there is space avaialble. I need to know the data space available and log space available so that I can expand it when the space runs low. Please help.
Thank you,

How do we identify the total disk space of a SQL Server Remotely. The procedure xp_fixeddrives gives the available free space .. but I would like to know the total disk capacity .. Any pointers?
Thanks,
Deepti
As a normal sql user we are not able to get the disk space information by
executing 'xp_fixeddrive' extended stored procedure.
We are able to get the result using sa user and windows authenticated user.
Any help will be appreciated.
I'm creating a table using a XML string and a stored procedure to the SQL Server. I'm having problems in just one field, it is a nvarchar(10) type. This field's string XML Schema is also nvharchar(10) type. It is called CodCanalPrice.
Today, the only values this field can assume are AA or BB or CC, (...), ZZ or (space)A, (space)B, (...), (space)C. Note that (space) is actually a space character. They all have 2 characters.
The XML data string of one data row is showed below:
<row id="1" (...many fields...) CodCanalPrice=" A" />
When the statement is executed, SQL server removes the first space (so in this case it is updated to A without space in the table). The others values that don't have an space before like AA or BB are updated fine. All others fields are also updated correctly.
So far I tried to replace the first space for  but SQL Server doesn't accept this tag.
Hi There
In Sql Server 2005 sys.dm_db_task_space_usage is great for tracking down temdb space issues.
I have tempdb space issues in sql server 2000, how do i get the same info in SS2000 ? IE: What spid is using the most tempdb space ?
Thanx
I would be able to determine how much hard disk space is available on the Server with a SQL Query, and from an other computer on the LAN.
How can I do something?
Thanks for your help.
On the drive that SQL server is install on which is the C drive the amount of space is 495mb, can the amount of space be a potential problem, I am so used to looking at the drives that contains the data and log files and the backup.
So My question is should I also concern myself with the drive the sql server itself is installed on?
Thanks

My SQL server disk space is getting close to full capacity which is causing certain reports that we run via the SQL server to time out because I don't think there is enough space on the server.
Any tips on cleaning out a SQL server? Are there any folders that can absolutely be deleted to clear space? I know on a local computer that the %temp% folder can be cleaned out. I know when dealing with servers you do not want to make to many changes because it can cause major problems down the road.
I am trying to count the characters in a sting before a space. Here is the example of what I am trying to accomplish.
"2073 9187463 2700' 4 7 4, the string character count is 4 before the space, 7 is the count before the next space and the last is the last in the string, if there was more characters within this string for example....'2073 9187463 2700 7023 6044567' it would return the number of characters in the string before the space and at the very end of it.
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)
