Are there ways to manage the predefined MSDE setttings for tempdb.ldf?
Are there any automated methods that can be used to shrink or clear old tempdb.ldf log files other than rebooting?
Thanks for any feedback, the first part about rebooting was very helpful.
I am interning at my university and I am installing and running windows server update services. My problem is that I made all of the necessary changes in the group policy and only half of the clients on the domain are reporting to the server. Keeping in mind that I have people around me who do not understand anything about servers. If there are any suggestions please respond.

i've got "Windows Server Update Services encountered an error. The log file for database 'tempdb' is full. Back up the transaction log for the database for free up some log space" error. i'm using MSDE at my current server which is function to download windows update from internet so all pc's at my local domain automatically update windows from this server without using internet.
what i'm suppose to do to solve this error? i've no idea coz i'm not familiar with MSDE. thankss..
I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 install that I am trying to use as a WSUS server.I have setup SQL Server 2012 Express on the server to be used as the WSUS database. When installing the WSUS role, I select the option to install the SQL database and continue through the wizard to the point where I have to connect to the database.At this point I enter 'ServerNameMSSQLSERVER' and select 'Check Connection'.At this point, I get the following error: 'A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server.
The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - (Connection string is not valid)I have tried using localhost and the server's IP for the name, but those fail as well. How can I get this working? It's urgent for me as I already have downtime scheduled for patching.The server is not hosting any other roles and is joined to an existing domain. Unfortunately, I don't have access to any of the other servers on the domain.
Hi All
Im a new comer to the site and wsus.
I inherited a functional wsus server it was great but due to a demand for improved reporting features I attempted to install the Wsus rollup reporting sample. Im uncertain as to how but I hashed up the installation to the extent that it corrupted the MSDE installation. It was suggested I remove wsus and reinstall.
At this point I made another error. I was told that WSUS 3 had improved reporting features (and indeed it does, its infinitely better in that respect) so I signed up with Microsoft and downloaded the installation file.
WSUS 3 uses SQL 2005 for Windows so my back up of the MDF & log files were rendered useless.
I have since removed WSUS 3 reinstalled a fresh copy of WSUS Sp1 and run the synchronisation job.
The fresh install does not have my machines/groups setup nor any of the updates approved.
I would like to know is there any way I can use the MDF file and its log to rebuild my WSUS environment?
Hi all,
WSUS is installed on my windows 2003 server. During the install, parameter DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS was not specified, and so no remote connection was possible.
I used SVRNETCN.exe to enable TCP/IP remote connection on port 1433. However it seems not to work.
FROM THE SERVER :
osql -E -S MYSERVERWSUS works fine but
osql -E -S 127.0.0.1WSUS doesn't work, i get the famous error
[DBNETLIB]Serveur SQL spécifié non trouvé.
[DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
If i user "osql -L" command, my instance doesn't appear in the list
FROM A CLIENT COMPUTER
osql -E -S MYSERVERWSUS and
osql -E -S MY_SERVER_IPWSUS don't work, i get the same error
I've tried tried to understand for hours, and i'm lost. I thought there may be a problem between SQL and 2003, and read SQL sp3a was required. I ran
select @@version from osql and got result
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.881 (Intel X86)
8.00.881 is not referenced in ms support as a patched version number !!!!!
Can anyone help me please ?
Personnel, OK?
I am trying to install the Wsus 3.0 and store your database on a server-database SQL2005 SP2 remotely.
When I come on screen Database Option I choose Using an existing database server on this computer I put my <serverName> <instanceName> ai seems the message below:
[DBNETLIB] [ConnectionOpen (ParseConnectParams ()). Invalid connection.
Did I thought that all procedures on the Net, such as enabling Remote Connections, signed in sql remote machine using sqlcmd, picked up the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909801 for authentication kerberos (my authentication this via NTLM do not know why) but still did not work, someone already went through this problem?
Thanks

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!

TempDB is one of the databases equipped with MSSQL Server by default.What is the purpose of it?Why do we use this temp database?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
THis is sql server 6.5 question.
I have tempdb data device size default 2 MB, which has completely filled up. I am trying to expand data device to it.
I created new device tempdb_data_ext (250 MB) and tried to expand tempdb data device. But everytime I do it, it ends up adding space to tempdb log device. How can I expand tempdb data device?
It's extremely urgent.
Thanks
Hi,
How can I control the growth of tempdb in SQl server.It's growing like anything.
CAn I create some alerts or jobs and what those alerts/job are supposed to do?
All help appreciated.

Hello!
This is error message I discovered in NT even viewer:
c:MSSQL7DATATEMPDB.MDF: Operating system error 112(There is not enough space on the disk.) encountered.
In SQL Server error log the errors are:
Error: 1101, Severity: 17, State: 10
Could not allocate new page for database 'TEMPDB'. There are no more pages available in filegroup DEFAULT. Space can be created by dropping objects, adding additional files, or allowing file growth..
Currently tempdb rezides on C drive and it's almost out of space.
What should I do?
Detach tempdb and then move to different drive?
What's the procedure?
Thanks
Lena
TEMPDB in one of our production servers does not clear up so every three to four weeks I have to restart NT. Nothing like this happens on any of the other three servers. Does anybody know where I should look at to correct the problem. I sure would appreciate it.
Thanks

I have never done this before and thought I would ask. Is it possible to detach the tempdb database, move it to another drive or partition, and then re-attach it? What would be the downside or side-affects to doing such a thing?
Thanks. JT
We want to shrink the size of our TEMPDB , Does anyone know how to without blowing it away and re creating it.
Also, our tempdb expands to occupy all available space on the server, the space is not released until the server is restarted.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Hi why I cannot backup the tempdb. Is this a normal or there is something that I am doing wrong.

Hi
I get a message:

Logical page 258 of the log encountered while retrieving highest timestamp in database 'tempdb' is not the last page of the log and we are not currently recovering that database.
I use sqlserver -T4022 to start my SQL Server since it will not start with out it. When I start sqlserver without the option, it tells me that

Unable to find database table id = 2, name = 'tempdb'.
I just want my SQL Server back. Please help!

I need to move tempdb to another drive,also increase the size.Largest database is 15GB.Can anyone suggest the size and also the exact commands to move.Do I need to backup the databases before I do this task?If SP1 is not installed,will it be o.k for me for this tempdb problem.If we have a larger tempdb like 4GB,will it effect anything?...Urgent!!
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe tempdb has grown to over 2 GB on our DB. There are no user tables or SP in it. Is there a way to clean up and are there any consequences to this?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI read an article on this site by Michael Hotek re "Basic SQL Server 6.5 Configuration Options". In the paragraph about TempDB he says that you should always avoid using Temp tables in stored procs. I use this feature a lot when trying to do "not in" type queries (I filter out a portion of a larger table and then use the "not in" on the temp table rather than the entire table.)
Is there a better way to run a Not in query. I have the table well indexed (i think) but it seems to do a full table scan if I use the entire table.
Any ideas???
Our Tempdb.mdf file is 11 gigs. I have tried several things to shrink this but with no luck. Does anybody have a suggestion on how I can free up that space. I have tried to re-start Sql but that didn't do anything. I thought that there was a bug, if the files got above 4 gig that sql wouldn't clear them, but I could be wrong
I thought I could detach it, and attach a new file, but makes me nervous without knowing if that’s correct.
Thanks for the help
Hi,
I moved my tempdb (2MB) to RAM and restarted the server. It did restart but when I tried to connect thru ISQL, it gave me an ERROR -
A connection could not be established to <server-name> - DB-Library. Unable to Connect.
What could be the possible reason.
To move tempdb to RAM, do i just have to change the values of the MEMORY and TEMPDB IN RAM parms and restart or do I have to do anything else.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi
When should I put tempdb in RAM and when should I not ?
Thanks in advance
Vijay
I am trying to configure a 6.5 server to set the tempdb to run off disk. I reset the tempdb in ram = 0 in the configuration, and restarted the service, but it left it as running in ram, with 0 configured. I then rebooted the server, and it still left the tempdb in ram. Any ideas?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I am trying to get some information about tempdb database. I've tried BOL but I couldn't find a whole lot of info. I am trying to find out what size should tempdb be to not to cause problems. Also, I am trying to shrink tempdb by using shrink database option in EM, but it only shrinks the tempdb transaction log not the datafile, and I don't know why it is happening.
Thanks
We are using Peoplesoft HRMS version 7.0 on NT Server 4.0 and SQL Server 6.5, service packs on both up-to-date.
The server is a HP LX Pro with 4 200 MHz 1MB cache processors with 2,560 MB of RAM and 18 9GB drives configured with different combinations of RAID 1, 1+0, and 5.
The database is 2.3GB in actual size with the specific size of 6GB for data and 2GB for log on separate RAIDs.
We would like to use tempdb in RAM to boost the speed of complex queries that use the tempdb for intermediate working tables.
We would like to know of any experience of running tempdb in RAM, issues to overcome, of how to setup.
There are articles and books not recommending using tempdb in RAM. Comments anyone?
Note: Have looked in SQL Server DBA Survival Guide, and SQL Server Unleashed, along with the normal MS Documentation, technet, online books, and knowledge base searches.
System: Pentium II - Dual 450. 13 GIG RAID. 128 MB RAM.
Everything I've ever heard or seen says not to put tempDB in RAM, citing reasons of negligible benefit or even worse performance as it steals memory from SQL's cache memory.
My issue is I need to take anywhere from 500 to 3000 records (games played) in a batch every five minutes from a table, ordered by game id. There's no guarantee of sequential order to how the records are inserted, so I need to do an ORDER BY in my query. I also do a stored procedure for ranking that requires an ORDER BY.
The performance difference between the two is staggering. 1000 records with a 200 mb tempdb database (not in RAM) takes about 300 seconds. With a 16 MB tempdb database IN ram, it takes just under 127 seconds. Only problem? I'm constantly getting, after a few batches have run, "out of space in syslogs for tempdb ram messages. "
Is there a way to net such performance from tempdb without putting it in RAM, and if not, is there a way to explicity clear out tempdb. Thanks for any help.
Hello All~
I have a problem with Tempdb database on SQL 6.5 server.....when i create a temporary table,
i block other users in other databases. Actually i run a stored procedure which creates a temporary table and then the procedure insets some values of a table from my test database. When the spored procedure is executed, users in other databases also get blocked and no new user will be allowd to log on to the server. When i check as to what the other users are executing, i find that they are also creting or droping a temp table.
So i will have to either kill my SP or let it finish and continue blocking other users.
As of now, i am not able to find a reason for that and i try to run the Stored procedure in offpeak hrs.
I have not played around much with Temp tables in SQL 6.5. Pl do suggest me as to what to do....
Some details you would be interested on :
Server - SQL Server 6.5
Front End - Great Plains
Size of Tempdb - Data Space Available( It says shared with data)
database_name database_size unallocated space
------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------
tempdb 1502.00 MB -6301.82 MB
reserved data index_size unused
------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------

Hope this information helps.
Thanks in Advance...

I have a dumb ?
When I go in to expand the tempdb to at least 25mb req. for the migration
It is actually expanding the Log size & the Db available size still says 1.76mb.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanx for your time

Hi, our tempdb log keeps filling up and suggests we back it up. Can we double the size of the log file if we are using simple recovery?

Being new to SQL server I would like some information regarding the tempdb database.
I user SQL Server 2000.
At present I appear to be backing up my tempdb but it has been failing since way back. It gives me this error when trying to bakup the database:
Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM. Backup and restore operations are not allowed on database tempdb. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3147) BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013). The step failed.
Can someone give me a basic grounding as to what the tempdb is used for and should I back it up or not?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
My db tempdb is very big (55 Go), how can i reduce it or erase it and why it's so big ?
Hi All
if temdb grows and use all the disk space and then after log backup or other clean up process its size got reduced but it is still holding the space it was grown upto. In this case what would be ideal to do restart server/services or is it possible to reduce the space alocated to tempdb through properties.
any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
