Growing Tempdb
Feb 2, 2000In SQL Server 7.0 sp1 (NT 4.0 sp5) I have a server that
has a tempdb database that continues to grow. This server
contains the database for SMS. Over the weekend, the tempdb
had grown so much that it filled up the drive (37GB). I have
shrunk it down to a much more reasonable size and put a limit
on how large it can grow. I'm noticing today that it is
beginning to grow again. Is there a way I can look at the
information that is in tempdb right now? I have to think
that there are open transactions for some reason that can't
commit. I know that tempdb gets cleared out when SQL Server
is restarted, but I can't be restarting it this often.
On Microsoft's website, I did find an article about SMS Y2K
queries using large amounts of Tempdb and failing to complete.
The solution they have in this article Q234912 is to install
SMS sp1 which is already installed.
I haven't been able to find any other useful information yet
on this problem. I would appreciate any help you can offer.
Thanks!

Tempdb Growing
Apr 9, 2006Hi there,
My tempdb is growing from its normal size of 800MB to 2GB.
I've been shrinking it using dbcc shinkfile/ dbcc shrinkdatabase.
Everytime I run the command, immediately it says that the execution is completed and successful. However, when I checked the disk space, it remained the same, as though no shrinking is done. Can anyone help?
Also, it was published that restarting the SQL server can re-create tempdb from scratch. I've tried it too, the tempdb just wont go back to its normal allocation. My constraint is limited disk space, would appreciate any good samaritan to give me some help here.
Thanks in advance!
TempDB Growing Fast
Sep 10, 2003I notice this morning that my tempdb grows very fast. I have 26GB in my
hardrive and all the space occupied by tempdb and finaly the qeury got failed due to 0 space in hardrive and there is no space to grow tempdb.
The select query supposed to bring about 40000 rows.
I ran this same query in different server that is not growing even 1 mb.
I checked the tempdb option the Trunc log on checkpoint is true.
Why this problem happening ?.
I have just dbo permission to access all the database.
Do you have any advice regarding this?.
Thanks,
Ravi
Tempdb Growing Out Of Control
Mar 22, 2004Hi all.
I have a db application that has been running fine for months. Volumes have been gradually increasing and one day the system locked up.
A stored proc that typically ran in 3 or 4 minutes never returned. The tempdb kept expanding to fill available disk space (100GB). This was the offending statement inside the stored proc:
INSERT INTO cpp (CPPDate,MerchantLink,ReportNumber,FromDate,ToDate ,TransThreshold,DayThreshold,CPPType)
SELECT S.CPPDate,S.MerchantLink,s.ReportNumber, s.FromDate,s.ToDate, S.OccurThresh,s.DaysThresh,'D'
FROM #stuff S, Trans T with (nolock), Supplier P with (nolock)
where T.MerchantNumber in (SELECT MerchantNumber FROM Merchant WHERE MerchantLink = s.MerchantLink)
AND T.TranDate >= S.FromDate
AND T.TranDate <= S.ToDate
AND T.LoadDate <= @ReportDate2
AND (T.SupplierNumber = P.SupplierNumber
AND T.IncludeInCpp = 'Y'
AND P.CountryNumber IN (SELECT CountryNumber FROM REPORTCOMBO WHERE ReportNumber = s.ReportNumber))
GROUP BY CPPDate,Merchantlink,ReportNumber, FromDate,ToDate, OccurThresh, DaysThresh
HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT T.AccountNumber) >= OccurThresh
I realize that a "group by" uses the tempdb, but can't figure out why it would go away rather than returning an error.
I have a workaround in place now. I split this big query into several steps using a cursor. (slower and clumsier, but it works) Statistics are updated daily, i have tried defragging, and reindexing with no success.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. If you need any more details, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Tempdb Database Is Growing Every Second In PROD
Jul 7, 2004for the first time in my long SQL DBA live I see such a behaviours. My tempdb database is growing every damn second since a this morning. Now it reached 30Gb, the log file is empty (217 Mb).
We use SQL 2000 Ent on Win 2000 Advance Server. Running Siebel Call Center (7.5 ver) with about 300 users.
Some users time to time obtain and hold a huge amount Exclusive locks on the tempdb extents

Any ideas?

TempDB Is Growing At An Alarming Rate!
Oct 16, 2007Hi
We are having problems with our SQL server 2000.
The problem is that on a daily basis we run out of disk space and I always have to run shrinkdatabase on tempdb.
Today we started with 160GB of free space and by the end of the day it was gone!
Yes we do have many jobs running on our SQL server pulling data in from many sources. But I dont know how to find out which job is causing this problem. I have a suspicion that it could be a job that runs hourly that pulls data from Oracle (approximately 10000 rows each time), but that job has been active since the 28th August 2007. We only started running out of space in the past 5 days. Any suggestions would be appreciated as to what is causing this or how to diagnose the problem.
Thanks
How Can I Retrieving Records By Past One Week,past Month, Past Quarter Of Year And Then Half Year.
Apr 30, 2007Hi every one,
I have a database table and currently users may retrieve records for a specified date range by providing the start and end dates and then records between those dates provided are retrieved. For example if users wanted to view all records entered in april, they would have to select 04/01/2007 as the start date and then 04/30/2007 as the end date. The records for april would then be displayed in a gridview.
How can configure my sql query such that instead the user selectes a month from a dropdownlist of 12 months. I would love a user to just select the desired month from a list instead of selecting start and end dates. Eg if they are intrested in a report for june, then they should just select june from the list instead of specifying the start and stop dates. HOW can i achieve this.
TempDB Tran Log Growing Slowly - Yet We Are In Simple Mode!
Jul 20, 2005Something strange is happening to our SQL Server DB (2000). Thetempdb transaction log file continues to grow (quite slowly) for noapparent reason. We have it in simple mode, and I have tried a manualcheckpoint command and manual shrink (of the log file only). Thereare no unusual SQL's (large or small) going on. A "heavy hitter" wouldmake it grow fast, not 10 MB every 30 minutes or so. This server hasbeen in production for over a year with no similar issues to this.Anyone encounter a similar situation? This started (as far as we cantell) sometime yesterday. It is growing about 200 MB a day, and is upto 600 MB now, with all but 8 MB "used". For now we added space, butof course that is not a long term solution. The two "data" files(each had a 200 MB initial allocation) have never gone much above 100MB each used (they are each about 100 MB now and have been that wayfor several days, but have shrank and grown). There are about 30small to medium sized "regular" databases on this instance.Any help would be appreciated, especially if there is a way we can fixthis without bouncing the engine (I know, wishful thinking...). The OSis Win 2000, SP3. SQL Server is at 2000, SP 3a.THANKS IN ADVANCE!

SQL 2012 :: TempDB Log File Usage Constantly Rising And File Keeps Growing?
Jun 16, 2014The TEMPDB transaction log file keeps growing.The database server is new and the transaction log was presized to 1 GB on installation. After installing a number of databases, the log file grew over a day to 38GB. Issuing a manual checkpoint was the only way to free some space to allow it to be shrunk back to a usable size. The usage of the file is still going up.
I am struggling to find what process is causing the log to be used so heavily. Looking at the log reuse wait desc for tempdb returns "Nothing" and tempdb itself isn't being used very much or growing in size.
Transaction Log Growing And Growing
Aug 22, 2001I upgraded from SQL 6.5 to SQL 7 last month, and so far, everything's
been going fine.
However, I'm not using my old SQL 6.5 backup scripts, which, when the
backup was done, would dump the transaction log with TRUNCATE_ONLY, shrinking
the log size.
My SQL 7 server is set up with a Maintenance Plan which does everything,
including backup, but the log file seems to be growing and growing. I'm
up to 4.5 gigs now, for a database with a data file of 3.5 gigs.
How do I "dump transaction with TRUNCATE_ONLY" on a SQL 7 database?
Thanks,

MSmerge_tombstone Growing And Growing
Mar 1, 2004I have merge replication setup up for 6 SQLCE Subscribers.
I have noticed that the MSmerge_tombstone table is growing
at a fast rate regardless of any changes to the data in
the database. It seems to be consistantly adding 50 rows
of data to the table every 2 minutes. As the table grows
it causes the SQLCE subscirbers to fail with the following
message:
ERROR: -2147467259
SQL Server Reconciler failed: Run
ERROR: -2147200925
: Failed to enumerate changes in the filtered
articles.
ERROR: 0
: {call sp_MSsetupbelongs
(?,?,?,?,?,0,?,?,1,?,?,?,?,?,?)}
ERROR: 0
: The merge process timed out while executing a
query. Reconfigure the QueryTimeout parameter and retry
the operation.
I'm sure that this is due to the size of the
MSmerge_tombstone.
Should the MSmerge_tombstone table grow at this rate?
36,000 rows every 24hrs!
I understand there is the sp_mergecleanupmetadata Stored
procedure but if i use this does that mean that because i
have to reinitialise all the subscribers, they are going
to have to pull down the whole subscription again.
I have since Changed a settings to make subscription
expiration date to 8 days instead of never expires but
we're still getting 50 rows added every 2 minutes
SQL SERVER 2000 SP3
Hope someone can shed some light on this for me.
Thanks.

Tempdb Is Skipped. You Cannot Run A Query That Requires Tempdb
Jul 14, 2004Has 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!

Past Due Report
Jan 24, 2008Hello All
Our Collection team has a report that has an error that I'm tring to fix. The Person who created this report just hard coded the current month due as =MonthName(Month(Fields!CurrentDue.value) &" " &year((Fields!CurrentDue.Value).
For the Year 2007 it works fine. But now that the new year has started the report Current Month Due read Dec 2008, but it should be Dec 2007. I thought Of putting in some IIF statements but there has to be a easier way. Is there a function that check the past due and automatically increases the year by one. Say the bill in sent in Nov 2007 past due should be 30 days, Dec 2007. 60 Day should be Jan 2008 and so one.
Last Report Hours
=monthname(month(Fields!LastReportedHours.Value)) & " " & year(Fields!LastReportedHours.Value)
Days Past Due
=Fields!DaysPastDue.Value
Current Month Due
=monthname(month(Fields!CurrentDue.Value)) & " " & year(Fields!CurrentDue.Value)
Current Output
last reported Days Past due Current Month Due
September 2007 75 Days December 2008
Output should be!
last reported Days Past due Current Month Due
September 2007 75 Days December 2007

Generating A Table From A Log For Past 12 Months
Apr 1, 2004I would like to show a datagrid where the columns are the last 12 months from whatever today is. I am drawing from what could be a rather large tagle in the DB. The Table looks like this:LogID LogTally LogDate Item
1 2 3/28/03 apples
2 1 3/29/03 apples
3 2 4/01/03 oranges
4 3 4/01/03 apples
5 1 4/01/03 grapes
.......
293 1 3/17/04 oranges
294 1 3/17/04 apples And if someone wants to see a report on apples, they would see something like:3/03 4/03 5/03..................3/04
3 3 - 3I can select one month (this one) like this:SELECT SUM(LogTally) AS Expr1
FROM TABLE
WHERE (MONTH(GETDATE()) = MONTH(LogDate)) AND (YEAR(GETDATE()) = YEAR(LogDate)) AND (item = 'apples')
GROUP BY itembut, I just don't know how to do it for the past 12 months. Do I play with the dates and do 12 seperate SELECTS?
