View Behaviour With Index.
May 12, 2006
Hi
If I have a view:
SELECT A,B
FROM tblTable
WHERE A = 1
And then I have a s-proc using that view:
SELECT *
FROM MyView
WHERE B > 6
My question: If I add an index to tblTable for the column B (not used in the view's WHERE clause, but used in the s-proc), will it have a performance improvement, because of the WHERE B > 6 on the view, assuming that this condition would benefit from the index if it were in the view itself.
I guess I could also put it this way: can an index on a column in a table improve the performance of a condition on a view using that table.
Thanks
Peter

Hi Everybody,I have a complex view, that includes a "group by" clause. I'm tryingto join this view with a table, in a very simple query.The problem is that the optimizer is not using the table data as inputfor the view (I expect this because I have arguments for the table,but not for the view), but executing the view in a different step andthen joining to the table by a merge/hash join. This is obviously veryslow.I tried to force nested loops by using hints but it still doesn't usethe table data as input.Has anybody ever seen this?Thanks in advance...

I am looking to create a constraint on a table that allows multiplenulls but all non-nulls must be unique.I found the following scripthttp://www.windowsitpro.com/Files/0.../Listing_01.txtthat works fine, but the following lineCREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX idx1 ON v_multinulls(a)appears to use indexed views. I have run this on a version of SQLStandard edition and this line works fine. I was of the understandingthat you could only create indexed views on SQL Enterprise Edition?

Hi
I have a problem creating an index on a view. The view should return the record corresponding to the Maximum Obje_ID. This seems to work.
CREATE VIEW dbo.D_Object_View
WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS
SELECT
Policy_ID,
Obj_ID,
Environment_Code,
CoB,
Sub_CoB,
Policy_No,
Version_No,
Object_Type,
Item_Seq,
FROM dbo.D_Object
WHERE
(Obj_ID IN
(SELECT MAX(Obj_ID)
FROM dbo.d_object
GROUP BY Environment_Code, COB, Policy_No, SUB_COB, Object_Type, Item_Seq))
I create the index with the following statement :
CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX [IX_Object_ID] ON [dbo].[D_Object_View]([Obj_ID]) ON [PRIMARY]
but get the following error :
Cannot index the view 'DB.dbo.D_Object_View'. It contains one or more disallowed constructs.
I think it is because of the MAX statement but don't know of any other way to do it. :confused:

Is it possilbe to create an index on a view using a linked server table? I am using openquery and I know I can't use rowset functions if I want to index a view.
I just didn't know if there was any other way to access the linked server data in order to create an index.
thanks!!

Does anyone know of a trick that allows you to apply an index on the following view? I would like to index the license_id column. When I try to apply a unique clustered index I get the following error - Index on view 'dbo.v_lic_status' cannot be created because function 'getdate' yields nondeterministic results.
VIEW DDL:
SELECT license_id,
CASE
WHEN (term_date < GETDATE()) THEN 'Terminated'
WHEN (suspend_date < GETDATE()) THEN 'Suspended'
WHEN (expiration_date < GETDATE()) THEN 'Expired'
WHEN (effective_date < GETDATE()) THEN 'Active'
ELSE 'Pending'
END AS lic_status
FROM dbo.license
INDEX DDL:
create unique clustered index ux_v_lic_status_01 on dbo.v_lic_status (
license_id
)
with
fillfactor= 90
go

I created a view from a table with out any where clause. All the rows from the table will be in the view with some extra info.
The table has a few indexes.
In my stored procedure I am storing two columns from the table ( IdHi , IdLo - primary key ) into a temp table and joining the temp to the view.
Here the query is taking too much time and not using the index. Can I force the primary key index on View?
Thanks!

G'day all.
I am trying to create an index on a view that joins two tables.
I get the classic error of course:
'Cannot index the view 'dbname.dbo.HJC_net'. It contains one or more disallowed constructs.'
Thing that gets me is that it all seems pretty normal stuff and I can't see what is stopping it.
Code is below and any help greatly appreciated.
CREATE VIEW dbo.HJC_net WITH SCHEMABINDING AS
SELECTt_number
FROM dbo.ticket_cancellations RIGHT OUTER JOIN
dbo.tickets ON dbo.ticket_cancellations.tc_system_ref = dbo.tickets.t_number
WHERE dbo.tickets.t_cancelled <> - 1 OR
-- Add all cancellation codes that are to be excluded from the NET view below
(dbo.ticket_cancellations.tc_cancellation_code <> 83943
AND dbo.ticket_cancellations.tc_cancellation_code <> 83946)
GO
-- Create a clustered index, it MUST be unique
CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX t_number_unique ON HJC_net(t_number)

I have created a horizontal partition view from 4 physical tables.
just wondering how the index works in the partition view:
1) If I need to build an index on a column, do I need to build
it on all 4 physical tables? or I just build it on the view? or build
it on view and 4 physical tables?
2) If I build it on view, and if I add a table into view, do I need to
recreate all indices on the view?

I have a table that has thousands of rows inserted daily (rows are seldom updated or deleted)
The table is also involved in frequent non-simple select statements. It currently has about a million rows.
Out of the 15 odd columns in the table, I can see about 6 that would benefit being indexed to speed up the select statements.
Before I do this, I was wondering if people think that perhaps I should create an indexed view that all select statements use, rather than adding indexes directly to the table.
Can anyone advise me the performance benefits/disadvantages of indexed views over indexed tables?
Thanks

In the section on index tuning in chapter 3 of Microsoft Press manual Inside Microsoft SQL Server 2005: T-SQL Querying, the view dbo.VEmpOrders is created along with an index on the view. When a query is run against the view, the execution plan is supposed to use the index created in the view. When I run the example query, the execution plan uses an index in one of the base tables, dbo.Orders.
The execution plan in the book shows:
SELECT <--- Clustered Index Scan (using Performance.dbo.VEmpOrders.idx_ucl_eid_oy)
When I run the query as shown in the book, I get the execution plan:
SELECT <-- Hash Match <-- Compute Scalar <-- Index Scan (using Performance.dbo.Orders.idx_unc_od_oid_i_cid_eid)
Code to create the view and the subsequent query are:IF OBJECT_ID('dbo.VEmpOrders') IS NOT NULL
DROP VIEW dbo.VEmpOrders;
GO
CREATE VIEW dbo.VEmpOrders
WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS
SELECT empid, YEAR(orderdate) AS orderyear, COUNT_BIG(*) AS numorders
FROM dbo.Orders
GROUP BY empid, YEAR(orderdate);
GO
CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX idx_ucl_eid_oy
ON dbo.VEmpOrders(empid, orderyear);
SELECT empid, orderyear, numorders
FROM dbo.VEmpOrders;
How can I get the execution plan to use the view index. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks, Bill

Hello all,I'm wanting to do a CONTAINS query on fields that belong to two seperate tables. So, for example, this is what I'd *like* to do :SELECT ci.itemNameFROM Content_Items ciINNER JOIN Content_Pages AS cp ON ci.contentItemId = cp.contentItemIdINNER JOIN FREETEXTTABLE(Content_Items, (ci.title, cp.pageText), @searchString) AS ft ON ci.contentItemId = ft.[KEY]However, this will not work, since SQL Server won't let you do fulltext queries against more then one table.So my idea is to create a view that combines my Content_Items table with the desired column from my Content_Pages table. I would then create a fulltext index on this view, and do fulltext queries against it.It seems like this should work. However, when I try to create a fulltext index on my newly-created view, I get this error :A unique column must be defined on this table/view.How do I create a unique column within a view?Also, will my approach work, or will it have unintended consequences? I'm using this as part of a search component in my software, so it has to perform reasonably well.

I have a clustered index on an indexed view in sql server 2000. When I do a simple select in query anaylser from this view I can see from the execution plan in profiler that the clustered index was used to return the data, hence improving performance of the underlying select(this is why I am using the indexed view). However, if I run the query from an asp.net page using the sql provider I can see the call in profiler but the clustered index is not used, hence reducing the performance of the call considerably.If anyone has experienced this please let me know.Cheers

I have a view that joins a dozen tables with a million rows added per year by an application. I want to materialize it. The view is always filtered by date first on reports, then there are a few key transaction keys, but then many other fields required to make each row unique. I don't want to add these columns since they are large, many, not used for sorting or filtering, and may not define uniqueness in a future application design. I need a uniqueifier that is application agnostic. I prefer a bigint. So to store the materialized view ideally for reporting, I want to add the following clustered index to materialize the view:
CREATE unique CLUSTERED INDEX idx1
ON [dbo].[myview](myDate, key1, key2, key3, id bigint identity(1,1) NOT NULL)
And I get this error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 3
Incorrect syntax near 'bigint'.
Can I do what I want? If so, how?

Consider following code:
SELECT e1.EntityIdentity as CompanyID
FROM dbo.Entitye1 --company
JOIN dbo.EntityAssociationea
ON e1.EntityID = ea.EntityID1
JOIN dbo.Entitye2 --user
ON ea.EntityID2 = e2.EntityID
This query occurs as a sub-query in many stored procedures where exists a WHERE clause that includes CompanyID IN (above query).
Since dbo.Entity and dbo.EntityAssociation change infrequently I thought that an indexed view would really improve performance. But I've found one of the seemingly undocumented Microsoft features when trying to create the clustered index and get the following error msg:
Msg 1947, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot create index on view "ROICore.dbo.vEntityEntityAssociation_CompanyUser". The view contains a self join on "ROICore.dbo.Entity".
I really need to improve performance on this subquery. Entity currently has over 20m rows and EntityAssociation over 35m rows and both are growing.
How to improve performance? Indexes on both tables for the most part give index seeks, but I thought my saviour might be the index view. Obviously this will not work.

I am trying to use an indexed view to allow for aggregations to be generated more quickly in my test data warehouse. The Fact Table I am creating the indexed view on is a partitioned clustered columnstore index.
I have created a view with the following code:
ALTER view dbo.FactView
with schemabinding
as
select local_date_key, meter_key, unit_key, read_type_key, sum(isnull(read_value,0)) as [s_read_value], sum(isnull(cost,0)) as [s_cost]
, sum(isnull(easy_target_value,0)) as [s_easy_target_value], sum(isnull(hard_target_value,0)) as [s_hard_target_value]
, sum(isnull(read_value,0)) as [a_read_value], sum(isnull(temperature,0)) as [a_temp], sum(isnull(co2,0)) as [s_co2]
, sum(isnull(easy_target_co2,0)) as [s_easy_target_co2]
, sum(isnull(hard_target_co2,0)) as [s_hard_target_co2], sum(isnull(temp1,0)) as [a_temp1], sum(isnull(temp2,0)) as [a_temp2]
, sum(isnull(volume,0)) as [s_volume], count_big(*) as [freq]
from dbo.FactConsumptionPart
group by local_date_key, read_type_key, meter_key, unit_key
I then created an index on the view as follows:
create unique clustered index IDX_FV on factview (local_date_key, read_type_key, meter_key, unit_key)
I then followed this up by running some large calculations that required use of the aggregation functionality on the main fact table, grouping by the clustered index columns and only returning averages and sums that are available in the view, but it still uses the underlying table to perform the aggregations, rather than the view I have created. Running an equivalent query on the view, then it takes 75% less time to query the indexed view directly, to using the fact table. I think the expected behaviour was that in SQL Server Enterprise or Developer edition (I am using developer edition), then the fact table should have used the indexed view. what I might be missing, for the query not to be using the indexed view?

I am trying to create a clustered index on a View of a table that has an xml datatype. This indexing ran for two days and still did not complete. I tried to leave it running while continuing to use the database, but the SELECT statements where executing too slowly and the DML statements where Timing out. I there a way to control the server/cpu resources used by an indexing process. How can I determine the completion percentage or the indexing process. How can I make indexing the view with the xml data type take less time?
The table definition is displayed below.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AuditLogDetails](
[ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[RecordID] [int] NOT NULL,
[TableName] [varchar](64) NOT NULL,

)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]

The view definition is displayed below.
ALTER VIEW [dbo].[vwAuditLogDetails] WITH SCHEMABINDING

The definition for UDF f_GetModification
ALTER function [dbo].[f_GetModification]( @Modifications xml,@PID uniqueidentifier )
returns xml

as
begin
declare @pidstr varchar(100)
SET @pidstr = LOWER(CONVERT(varchar(100), @PID))

This is the actual statement displayed from Response.Write in classic ASP. INSERT INTO WOTasks (WoNum,TaskNum,TaskDesc,TaskMemo,Account,ModifyDate,Estimate,TaskHours,Unit,UnitCost,TotalCost) SELECT '06-012497',TaskNum,TaskDesc,TaskMemo,Account,'2006-Oct-3',1,TaskHours,Unit,UnitCost,TotalCost FROM Tasks WHERE procnum = '000002' There are 4 records returned from the SELECT part of the statement. In some situations, 4 records are inserted to WOTasks table, in others, only 1 record is inserted. I can't find out why 1 record, instead of 4, record is inserted. A form page submits the form to the save page using post method. The above statement is contained in the save page. When one of the form textbox is filled, 1 record is inserted. When the textbox is not filled, 4 records are inserted. You may think the textbox has something to do with the behaviour. I also think so but the content of the textbox does not affect the sql statement. In both cases, the insert statement is the same. In the actual codes, only strings in quotes are variables and the rest are hardcoded. When I run the statement in SQL Server, 4 records are affected. No such problem when connected with Access.The actual code belowSub AddTask(ByVal proc, ByVal wonum) Dim sSQL sSQL = "INSERT INTO WOTasks (WoNum,TaskNum,TaskDesc,TaskMemo,Account,ModifyDate,Estimate,TaskHours,Unit,UnitCost,TotalCost) SELECT '" & wonum & _ "',TaskNum,TaskDesc,TaskMemo,Account,'" & curDate & "',1,TaskHours,Unit,UnitCost,TotalCost FROM Tasks WHERE procnum='" & proc & "'" 'Response.Write sSQL:Response.End conn.Execute sSQL, , 128 End Sub

SELECT 'A' as t
union all
SELECT '['as t

I'd expect it to be 1, A, [ but instead it's [, 1, A [ is ascii 91 which is greater than both 1 and A, so why does it come first?

When I run the command:
exec master..xp_cmdshell 'NET USE'
from the analyzer the box responds there are no entries in the list.
After that, I run the command:
exec master..xp_cmdshell 'NET USE Z: /DELETE'
after which the box responds with a "network connection could not be found."
and that's all okay.
The weird thing is:
exec master..xp_cmdshell 'NET USE Z: \MACHINESHARENAME'
results in a "The local device name is already in use.".
The machine in this particular case is the box itself. I have no problem accessing other disks on other systems. I can see the share using the view command. There's no maximum on the share itself and I can connect to the share using another sql box with the same user.
I don't know why it won't budge, worked before like a charm. After six months or so it just stopped. Anyone seen/solved this behaviour?

Hi there,
I wonder if one of you worthy folks can help me out with some strange behaviour exhibited by a piece of SQL. Its my first post here , so please be gentle. :)
Here is my simple example :-
<my test table>
create table test
(ind int,
message varchar(255))
insert into test (ind, message) values
(1,'date=01/06/2006')
insert into test (ind, message) values
(1,'date=20/12/2005')
insert into test (ind, message) values
(2,'test')
The first query is
select * from test t1
where t1.ind in (select max(ind) from test t2
where t2.ind = t1.ind
and t2.message like 'date=%' )
fine.... 2 rows
second query
select * from test t1
where t1.ind =1
and convert(datetime, (SUBSTRING(Message, CHARINDEX('=',Message,0)+1, 10)),103) > getdate()
fine same 2 rows...
but If I try to combine the 2 clauses in
select * from test t1
where t1.ind in (select max(ind) from test t2
where t2.ind = t1.ind
and t2.message like 'date=%' )
and convert(datetime, (SUBSTRING(Message, CHARINDEX('=',Message,0)+1, 10)),103) > getdate()
I get a
Server: Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Syntax error converting datetime from character string.
Please can anyone help me on this?
thanks
