Alter Table Lock?

Sep 11, 2007

Hi!
I use proc handling special business logic (I also use constraints, indexes for that ;-)
Now I have a situation where I should check multiple rows with an proc.
Preventing multi-user issues I want to lock the table (yes, yes potential performance issue, but in this case there are few simultaneous jobs) - in Oracle I could lock the table, but what to do in SQL Server?

Maybe you have an better alternative, then let me hear ;-)

Or should I use "begin transaction"...

Thanks for help

SQL Security :: ALTER DATABASE Failed Because A Lock Could Not Be Placed On Database

Jul 20, 2015

I have a script that automates some db drop/restore operations and bringing the database to single user mode is part of it: ALTER DATABASE ... SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE...I want this to executes under a login, that has restricted privileges, so I've created a login and granted it a dbcreator role + ALTER ANY DATABASE privileges.

Problem: When I run the script against a database with an active/sleeping connection:It fails when using the restricted login: "Msg 5061...ALTER DATA BASE failed because a lock could not be placed on database ..."It completes successfully when using a sysadmin login According to stackoverflow.com the solution is to kill the active/sleeping connections to the database, before ALTER-ing it, which works fine, but the question is....

Questions: Why the "ALTER DATABASE..." statement works under the sysadmin login, but not under a dbcreator one?Does this mean the sysadmin login kills the connections to the target database in the background?Is it possible to grant additional privileges to the restricted login, so the "ALTER DATABASE..." statement won't need preventive killing of the connections?

How To Lock A Table So Others Cannot Lock It

May 23, 2001

Hi,

I want to lock a table so others cannot lock it but able to read it inside transactions.

The coding I need is something like this: set implicit_transactions on begin transaction select * from table1 with (tablock, holdlock) update table2 set field1 = 'test' commit transaction commit transaction

I have tried the coding above, it won't prevent others from locking table1.

So, I changed the tablock to tablockx to prevent others from locking table1. But this will also prevent others from reading table1. So, how can I lock table1 so others cannot lock it but still able to read it?

Thank you for any help

TSQL - Using ALTER TABLE - ALTER COLUMN To Modify Column Type / Set Identity Column

Sep 7, 2007

Hi guys,
If I have a temporary table called #CTE
With the columns
[Account]
[Name]
[RowID Table Level]
[RowID Data Level]
and I need to change the column type for the columns:
[RowID Table Level]
[RowID Data Level]
to integer, and set the column [RowID Table Level] as Identity (index) starting from 1, incrementing 1 each time.
What will be the right syntax using SQL SERVER 2000?

I am trying to solve the question in the link below:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2093921&SiteID=1

Thanks in advance,
Aldo.

I have tried the code below, but getting syntax error...



ALTER TABLE #CTE
ALTER COLUMN
[RowID Table Level] INT IDENTITY(1,1),
[RowID Data Level] INT;


I have also tried:

ALTER TABLE #CTE
MODIFY
[RowID Table Level] INT IDENTITY(1,1),

Error: A Deadlock Was Detected While Trying To Lock Variable X For Read Access. A Lock Could Not Be Acquired After 16 Attempts

Feb 2, 2007

I simply made my script task (or any other task) fail

In my package error handler i have a Exec SQL task - for Stored Proc

SP statement is set in following expression (works fine in design time):

"EXEC [dbo].[us_sp_Insert_STG_FEED_EVENT_LOG] @FEED_ID= " + (DT_WSTR,10) @[User::FEED_ID] + ", @FEED_EVENT_LOG_TYPE_ID = 3, @STARTED_ON = '"+(DT_WSTR,30)@[System::StartTime] +"', @ENDED_ON = NULL, @message = 'Package failed.

From progress:

Error: The Script returned a failure result.
Task SCR REIL Data failed

OnError - Task SQL Insert Error Msg

Modify the expression to be valid.

Warning: The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (4) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.

And how did I get 4 errors? - I only set my script task result to failure

Table Lock...

Nov 5, 2007

Hello Friends,
I am having a VB application running for the SQL SERVER DB. The VB application is installed on the multiple of PCs in the network. Now when I am trying to fetch the same from all the different PCs simultaneously, its amazingly fast. But the issue comes when I am trying to update the same table (but different rows) from the different PCs simultaneously. The time taken is directly proportaional to the number of users. I am not getting what could be the problem? Can any one suggest me the approch? Is it some related to table / row / page locking? As all the connections are trying to update on the same table. I checked the isolation level. Its default, "READ COMMITTED". Kindly suggest...




Thanks in advance........

How To Alter Column Length Of The Master Table Along With The Slave Table?

Aug 13, 2006

In SQL Server 2005,here are two tables, created by the following SQL Statements:

CREATE TABLE student(
ID CHAR(6) PRIMARY KEY,
NAME VARCHAR(10),
AGE INT
);

CREATE TABLE score(
ID CHAR(6) PRIMARY KEY,
SCORE INT,
FOREIGN KEY(ID) REFERENCES student(ID)
);

For the length of Column ID is not enough, So I want to alter its length.The alter statement is:

ALTER TABLE student ALTER COLUMN ID CHAR(20)

For the table student is referenced by table score, the alter statement can not alter the column of the table student, and the SQL Server DBMS give the errors.

But, I can manually alter the length of the column ID in SQL SERVER Management Studio. How to alter column length of the master table(student) along with the slave table(score)?

Thanks!

ALTER TABLE SWITCH PARTITION On A Replicated Table

Apr 10, 2007

A customer wants to implement table partitioning on a replicated table.



They want to hold 13 months of data in the table and roll off the earliest/oldest month to an identical archive table. The table has a date field and partitioning by month makes sense all around.



So SWITCH PARTITION is the obvious solution to this, except for the fact that the table is replicated (transactional w/no subscriber updates).



What are his architectural or practical solutions to using table partitioning and replication?

How To Lock The Row Or Table When Update?

Nov 4, 2004

Hi,
I am working on a project which need to produce a sequential certificate number, Everytime I need a new certificate number, I need to find out what is the max number in the database and then the new certificate number just max+1.
But how can I block another
transaction to check what is max certi. number while this transaction is in the middle of writing the new certificate number(max+1) into database . Does ADLockOptimistic work in this case? Here is the code:
My database sql 2000.

cmdTemp.CommandText="Select max(certificateNumber) from product_table where certificateNumber<> 8888888"
set cert_info=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")
cert_info.Open cmdTemp, , AdOpenKeySet, adLockOptimistic
If Not cert_info.EOF then

certnumber=cert_info(0)+1

End if
cert_info.close
set cert_info=nothing

To Give A Table Lock

Oct 14, 2005

How can i give a table wise exclusive lock in MSSQL Server ?

I got the description but, How can I apply this ?
The sql :
LOCK TABLE <tablename> IN EXCLUSIVE MODE
is not working.

Is there any query/method to do this ?
Please help ...

thanks


About Exclusive locks
--------------------
Exclusive (X) locks are used for data modification operations, such as UPDATE, INSERT, or DELETE.

Other transactions cannot read or modify data locked with an Exclusive (X) lock. If a Shared (S) exists, other transactions cannot acquire an Exclusive (X) lock.

Keeping A Lock On Table Or Row

Feb 5, 2004

I need to update a row but keep a lock on the table (so no one else can update it) while I do run some more code. In Oracle, it always locks whatever you update until you hit commit, but sql server works opposite. How do I tell it not to commit a statement, or how would I explicitly get a lock and then release it later?

Help: Table Lock Confirmation

Mar 12, 2004

I need confirmation from you SQL Server experts out there. Please let me know if the following works. Thanks!

This stored procedure gets a value and increments by 1, but while it does this, I want to lock the table so no other processes can read the same value between the UPDATE and SELECT (of course, this may only happen in a fraction of a second, but I anticipate that we will have thousands of concurrent users). I need to manually increment this column because an identity column is not appropriate in this case.

BEGIN TRANSACTION

UPDATE forum WITH (TABLOCKX)
SET forum_last_used_msg_id = forum_last_used_msg_id + 1
WHERE forum_id = @forum_id

SELECT @new_id = forum_last_used_msg_id
FROM forum
WHERE forum_id = @forum_id

Explicitly Lock A Table?

Apr 23, 2007

I have multiple applications which can potentially update the same trigger simultaneously. Each application:

(1) Reads the contents of the current trigger
(2) Creates a new trigger based on the current contents
(3) Drops the trigger
(4) Creates the new trigger

I need to insure that once one application begins step (1), then no other application can start step (1) until step (4) has completed.

Any ideas on how this can be done? Some databases have a concept of locking tables explicitly, so for them, I can do:

(0) lock table foo;
(1) - (4)
(5) unlock table foo;

Is there such a concept in mysql or is there another way of accomplishing this?

Thanks,
Eric

Table Lock - Issue

Jul 27, 2007

Folks,

I have an update statement and it looks like it is holding exclusive lock on the table and does not release it until it completes. a PAGLOCK hint has been specified on the update statement and i think it is being ignored. It is a transaction database.so, other queries accessing that table has to wait for it to complete and thus causing timeouts.The Update statement is also causing high IO and CPU utilization. How do I

1) reduce the granularity level to prevent the locking
2)any ideas on optimizing the query?

Here is the query:

UPDATE Customers
SET IndexStart = TMP.IndexStart,
IndexPosition = TMP.IndexStart,
IndexStop = TMP.IndexStop,
IndexLevel = TMP.IndexLevel
FROM Customers AS C WITH (PAGLOCK)
INNER JOIN #tmp_IndexBCs AS TMP WITH (TABLOCKX) ON C.ID= TMP.ID

Thx
Sri
