Hi,
I need to dump transaction log every night. Before I do that I'd like to check those open transactions and kill the ones not part of sa or SQL server dba's activity. How can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance.

Hello:
I am working with an application in mssql 65.5, with sp4.
I have the database option 'truncatelog on checkpoint' set, there are no transaction log dumps taken at this time.
We plan now that y2k is over to upgrade to sp 5a. I am not not sure the new configuration
parameter 'logLRU buffers'(I don't have the sp5a readme text with me now) in our situation.
Here is our situtation with the transaction logs: The log, mostly with month-end high actvity,
fills up when long-running, high activity transactions are run.
The log gets to 100% sometimes rather quickly and sometimes near that or above 80%easily.
We check with dbcc open tran and there are no current transaction running. We expand the log just a little.
But it still shows 100@ used when we run dbcc sqlperf (logspace).
Here's the rub: when we try to dump the log, with wither or both back-to-back: dump tran abcdb
with truncate_only and then dump tran with no_log still nothing happens.
Sometimes we stop and start the mssql server and that helps but not always and sometimes when
we are really desperate we stop/start the NT server box(at off hours). Sometimes, the transaction log
reduces to nearly 0% used when we run dbcc sqlperf (logspace) and sometimes not. So we run dump tran
a couple of more times. We wait for several minutes usually to if the dump tan started and if it shows up
under EM under curent activity
This is becoming very frustrating and dangerous as well.
1) has any one had similar experiences with mssql 6.5 sp4?
2) Can anyone advise what we can do to more easily to dump the transaction log? Are we doing
any thing really wrong?
3) Would upgrading to sp 5a really help or should we just start planning upgrading to mssql 7.0?
Any suggestiosn you can furnish will be helpful. Thanks.

I have a transaction log that is 80% full and will not dump. I have used the "dump transaction dbname with no_log" command. It return the usual "This command did not return data, and it did not return any rows". However, this didn't do anything. The transaction log is still full. I don't want to restart the server if I don't have to. Any ideas?
View 5 Replies View Relatedis there any way to monitor the space utilisation of log space and if it crosses 60% or above, dump the transaction log, effectively....
i tried some of the things, given below.
1. script to monitor the space used of log using dbcc sqlperf(logspace) and check if crosses 60 % and dump the transaction into disk file and execute this script through a schedule task running every minute.
2. same result thro using sql server performance monitor.
Hi, I am trying to set up an auto dump for Transaction log using performance monitor ( Log space used(%) )... Although I followed the steps, it did not work... can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong ?
1. create an error # using Server/message/New etc...
2. Defined sql exec alert : right click sql exective/manage alerts/operators..
3. Defined performance monitor using add to alert and set Alert if radio botton to over %80.and Run_Program on Alert: c:mssqlinnE 5555 /T /S servername
then I inset 2000 rows is a table I still get :
Msg 1105, Level 17, State 1
Can't allocate space for object 'publishers' in database 'test' because the 'default' segment is full. If you ran out of space in Syslogs, dump the transaction log. Otherwise, use ALTER DATABASE or sp_extendsegment to increase the size of the segment.
I thought what I did is the right thing to do, but it seems that I am doing something wrong, Please help.
Thanks

I am doing a differential backup every night with t-log backups every 15 mins. The differential backup occurs at 3:00a and is about 300 MB. The very next t-log backup at 3:15a is also about 300 MB instead of the usual 1 - 2 MB. Why is this and how can I avoid it? Is this just how SQL Server works? Do I have to do a full backup every night instead? Thanks in advance for your help.

I have a 28Gb temp db transaction log which I want to dump halfway through a process, I have tried;

Thanks for your help.

hi, Does anyone have done this before. if so, please enlight me with your experience

I issued the following statement on my database as my log file showed 100% full.
However after running this command and also running it again after expanding the size
to almost double the value of both my database log and data devices it still shows the log as being 100% full.
DUMP TRANSACTION <database> WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY (and also used the NO_LOG option).
So can anyone tell me whats going wrong here? I should note that I am still able to enter data into the database without
any errors.
Hi All
I'm getting this when executing the code below. Going from W2K/SQL2k SP4 to XP/SQL2k SP4 over a dial-up link.
If I take away the begin tran and commit it works, but of course, if one statement fails I want a rollback. I'm executing this from a Delphi app, but I get the same from Qry Analyser.
I've tried both with and without the Set XACT . . ., and also tried with Set Implicit_Transactions off.
set XACT_ABORT ON

I am trying to dump my mssql DB so I can upload it to my web server.
I am using SQLDump v3.0b1 from sourceforge.net.
My problem is, when generating the dump file, any value greater than 1000 in a money column is set to 1.0000 in the dump file.
Does anyone know of a better program I should be using or a way for me to correct this?
My DB is huge and it would take far too much time to go through the dump file and correct the changed values.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanx

Hi all,
When I use "DUMP DATABASE", it will help me to backup both database and
transaction log. However, it will not help me to clean up the transaction log.
Therefore, I am worry that will the following happen?
1. DUMP DATABASE
Start backup database
( there are transactions during the backup process )
Finish backup database
Start backup transaction
Finish backup transaction
2. DUMP TRANSACTION
Start backup transaction and clean up the transaction log
So, will the transactions been backuped twice? If yes, will it cause those
transaction do twice when I restore the database then restore the transaction?
Thanks
Hello, All!
Can anyone explain what happens to Transaction Log
when DUMP DATABASE is issued?
Thanx.

After Dumping a database device, I still find the xxx.DAT files inthe /Data directory. Can these be 'safely' removed/backed up ?
They are taking up WAY too much space.
Question 2: After installation and after creating devices & databases, is there any way to reassign the /Data directory on another drive?
Either for future devices/databases or existing?
Thank you much,

I understand from the beta sql 7 newsgroups that 7 can't restore a 6.5 dump. This is extremely frustrating that MS wouldn't put this type of backword compatibility into 7.
Has anyone found another way to accomplish this? I can't use transfer manager as the 2 servers are on seperate, non-connected boxes. I ftp'd the dump from 6.5 server to a middle-man machine, then copied it to the 7.0 server.
Am I looking at bcp'ing out all 203 tables in my 1GB db then bcp'ing them back in?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Andre
Is there a way to dump sql in Access like in Transact SQL or mysqldump?
I've gotta convert an Access Database into a MySQL database, it is a small database, but I'd not want to put it in by hand .
If not, I'll just make a PHP script to rip it from a textfile.
I am trying to import a database from a dump file.
The dump file is from a sql server db.
I have created the db on another server and want to import the data from the
dump file.
I use the bcp like this :
bcp nnfdb.sa.users in x -Usa -P
nnfdb is the name of the database
users is the name of a table
x is the name of the dump file.
But I get this error :
SQLState = S0002, NativeError = 208
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name
'nnfdb.sa.users'.
also I am sure if I have to run the bcp for each table or if I can import
all tables in one bcp run.

Kris

I need to make a gigantic collection of excel sheets searchable from a web interface.I need entire rows fetched into a webpage depending on the users query.Mind you I'm not searching the names (filenames) of these excel files, butthe contents inside the excel file. E.g. in a file test.xls, if I search for the word"test1" from the web interface, the entire row in the excel file containingthe word test1 should be displayed.One way out is to dump the contents of the excel sheets into a database, andsearch the database via ASP.For this, can anyone tell me how to efficiently dump the contents of an excelsheet into SQL server?Or if anyone can suggest an alternate strategy for searching this mammothcollection of excel files' contents, if would be great.Thanks a lot.

My database is a mdf file and i know that SQL Server 2005 Express Edition cannot do this.
I would like to know if there are any FREE tools can export the table schema and existing data to a .sql file. OR SQL Server 2005 can do this?
Thank you
