What To Do When There Is Not Enough Space Left For Log Files?
Jun 1, 2008
After an INSERT INTO ... SELECT ... FROM ... query (and after waiting for ~40 minutes) I got the following errors:
Code Snippet
Msg 1105, Level 17, State 2, Line 1
Could not allocate space for object 'dbo.SORT temporary run storage: 164288922910720' in
database 'tempdb' because the 'PRIMARY' filegroup is full. Create disk space by deleting unneeded files,
dropping objects in the filegroup, adding additional files to the filegroup, or setting autogrowth on for existing files in the filegroup.
Msg 9002, Level 17, State 4, Line 1
The transaction log for database 'tempdb' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused,
see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases
I checked the space in the disk partition and it has only 10MBs left, so clearly there isn't enough space left.
I need a quick solution, and since I know nothing about logs and db backups in SQL Server, I thought to install SQL Server 2005 in another PC with a 30GBs primary partition for XP and applications and a 350GBs empty partition which would be enough for log files. So my question is how to setup SQL Server 2005 to use that big partition.

Hi,
I understand that the Express Edition can create databases up to a size of 4GB. Is there a way to check the space left for a particular database via C++?
Thanks in advance.

Here is one of the MCDBA exam question.
Does anyone explain how to do the following?
I click new alert, and selected 'Sql server performance condition alert' Type
But I don't know which object and counter I should choose to get disk space left.
Thank you..
Q: You are the administrator of Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server computer. The server is also
running SQL Server 2000 and contains a database named Sales. The server is configured as shown in
the exhibit.
The sales database is configured by using the default options and increases by 50MB per day. You
want an operator to be notified automatically before the database runs out of disk space. You also
want to minimize the amount of administrative overhead necessary for this database.
What should you do?
A:
Configure systems monitor to log an alert if the hard disk database contains less than 600MB of disk
space. Configure SQL server agent to send an e-mail message notifying the operator of the system
monitor alert.
Explanation: The solution with least administrative effort is to set up a system monitor alert to log when
disk space is below a certain threshold, here 600MB. Then configure the SQL Server agent to trap this event
and send an e-mail notifying the operator when this occurs.
Note: Using SQL Server Agent, you can define alerts and configure responses to alerts.
SQL Server Agent monitors the Windows application log and compares each SQL Server event logged with
the alerts that have been defined. If a match is found, an event alert fires. SQL Server Agent can also
monitor specific SQL Server performance object counters and fire a performance condition alert when the
value for the counter is less than, equal to, or greater than a defined threshold. The Create Alert Wizard can
be used to configure the SQL Server agent for alerts.

We have a database that doesn't seem to be growing on its own correctly (or seems like it isn't). This database has been running really slow for the last week and we think this may be whu
Current size is listed at 963mb while allocated size is 959mb. Trans log size is set to auto-grow and is allocated 4mb
Can we change that number on the fly, and also change the the growth settings without affecting the system?
Being a live system we obviously do not want any downtime, but believe this will help with our slowdown.
Any other ideas would also be appreciated
Thanks!

I have a tempdb split into 4 files (5 if you include the log).
Autogrowth is disabled on the mdf/ndf files so that they can be used round robin (1 file per logical CPU).
Is there a way to be alerted when there is x% of free space left?
I know hwo to check the free space via t-sql but want to be able to be alerted. I could run a sql job that reports the free space and send a database mail message if under x% but wondered if there was a built in (or better) method?
I also have SQL Sentry.

Dear friends
I need to report the amount of free space in each datafile of a database.
I have tried sys.dm_db_file_space_usage , but the documentation says that it only works for the TempDB.
Please help.

Hello --
I'm building an app that will allow users to create their own photo galleries. At this point, I'm planning on storing all photos as byte arrays in SQL server image fields.
Besides the organizational benefit, is there a space benefit to doing this? That is, if I have 1MB of .jpg's, will those same images take up less than 1MB of file space within the database?
One of the reasons I ask is that most hosting plans out there seem to offer more "normal" disk space than is allocated for the database, so I'm trying to make a best plan to accommodate what will probably end up being the biggest disk space consumer in my app (the photos, that is).
Any other recommendations re: this scenario (hosting, best practices) are appreciated.
TIA,
Eric

I have a table PLACE with a character column CODE
[Code] [nchar](4) NULL
I need to left pad the column with 0 if it is less than 4 characters long and extract the first 2 characters on the left into a new column COUNTY_CODE.
How can I do that in transact SQL?
I tried:
   Â
SELECT Â RIGHT(RTRIM('0000'+ISNULL([Code],'')),4) Â Â Â
  FROM [Place]
  WHERE [Place Code]='B' and [Code]='627'
And I got 0627. And how do I extract the first 2 characters?

Anyone know why using
SELECT *
FROM a LEFT OUTER JOIN b
ON a.id = b.id
instead of
SELECT *
FROM a LEFT JOIN b
ON a.id = b.id
generates a different execution plan?
My query is more complex, but when I change "LEFT OUTER JOIN" to "LEFT JOIN" I get a different execution plan, which is absolutely baffling me! Especially considering everything I know and was able to research essentially said the "OUTER" is implied in "LEFT JOIN".
Any enlightenment is very 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.

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 proposed on a new server that we separate Data Files, Log Files, tempDB, Backups, etc. onto separate LUNS on a SAN with High Speed Solid State Drives.I was told that with the new technology with solid state SAN's that it would decrease performance and that it did not work the same way as it did when you had RAID 5's etc.I thought that if things were cared out correctly by a SAN Administrator they would know how to configure for optimal performance.

In the first step of my SSIS package I need to get files from FTP and dump it/them in a local directory, but it's more than that, the logic is like this:
1. If no file(s) found, stop executing and send email saying no file(s) found;
2. If file(s) found, then compare it/them with existing files in our archive folder; if file(s) already exist in archive folder, stop executing and send email saying file(s) already existed, if file(s) not in archive folder yet, then transfer it/them to the local directory for processing.
I know i have to use a script task to do this and i did some research and found examples for each of the above 2 steps and not both combined, so that's why I need some help here to get the logic incorporated right.
Thanks for the help in advance and i apologize for the long lines of code!
