Is there anyway that I can find out the time an instance went offline? Does the last entry in the error logs show this? One on my instances went down during the night and I need to know the time this happened if possible.
View 9 RepliesHow to find last login date/time for user DML acitivity on databases on Instance?
Is there any way we can find our the last login date/time for databases?
Note: 1. We can find if the SQL Trace is running and store.This is not good solution
        2. Audit logins off/on is also not good solution.
       3. Using DMV's also not good option, if reboot sql server instance then historical values can not see.
Hi, I am relative newbie to SQLServer. When I try to take a user database offline, the query "hangs," with the query processing circle spinning. The Sharepoint 7 application is running on top of the Enterprise SQL Server 2005 db with several logins sleeping and awaiting commands. No errors are generated until I kill the offline command. Anyone have any ideas? Do I need to kill all the connections?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have a table which has a few fields, one being "datetime_traded". I need to write a query which returns the row which has the closest time (down to second) given a date/time. I'm using MS SQL.
Here's what I have so far:
Code:
select * from TICK_D
where datetime_traded = (select min( abs(datediff(second,datetime_traded , Convert(datetime,'2005-05-30:09:31:09')) ) ) from TICK_D)
But I get an error - "The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.".
Does anyone know how i could do this? Thanks a lot for any help!
I am reading about the RESTORE command to a point in time using logs, I would like to know the minimum point in time recovery for a backup image using T-SQL command before applying a log restore and what are the log ranges needed for the restore during restore.

Hello,
we need to track date/time of last update for each record in a table.
As we understand it, we can't use field type Timestamp as this type does
not use dates/times.
Is there any SQL function available which we can bind to a column or
do we really have to use triggers?

I'm running an SSIS package and I want to be able to skip instances that are stopped. Is there anyway that I can do a SELECT on some SERVERPROPERTY that would tell me if the instance is stopped?
Also, I was wondering about a delete from each table. I have each row timestamped in multiple tables. What could I do to set up a job to delete from each table rows after a certain timestamp?
Thanks,

Hello All, please be gentle im very new to this stuff..
So if i add a record via a sql datasource using the ConnectDB connection string it adds it the the sql 2005 database called intranet.... If i try to add to it using an onbuttonlick(Code Below) event it comes up with the "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.

I am running Win XP SP2 and MSDE 2000 SP3a. The user is logging on asa POWERUSER. When the user logs on the MSSQLSERVER service starts butthe SQL Server Service Manager, that runs in the system tray, showsthat the instance has not started. The field that displays theinstance name is blank and it is not listed in the drop down list.The MSSQLSERVER service is set to start with a Windows domainadministrator account. The SQL server can be accessed by a remotecomputer through Enterprise Manager. The local programs cannontinteract with the server though.Does anyone know if I could grant some user access rights to allow MSDEto work under a POWERUSER login?

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat is the easiest way to write a query statemet to find two or more instances that occur in a 15 minute period? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a way of taking a query which returns a set of date time fields (probable maximum of 20 rows) and looping through each value to see if it exists in a separate table.
E.g.
Query 1
Select ID, Person, ProposedEvent, DayField, TimeField
from MyOptions
where person = 'me'
Table
Select Person, ExistingEvent, DayField, TimeField
from MyTimetable
where person ='me'
Loop through Query 1 and if it finds ANY matching Dayfield AND Timefield in Query/Table 2, return the ProposedEvent (just as a message, the loop could stop there), if no match a message saying all is fine can proceed to process form blah blah.
I'm essentially wanting somebody to select a bunch of events in a form, query 1 then finds all the days and times those events happen and check that none of them exist in the MyTimetable table.
Is the Date/Time of the latest SQL Server 2005 instance restart stored somewhere in the system catalog?
This value is quite relevant when retrieving information on the costliest unused indexes in the instance.
I know of one way of doing this, which is to search the SQL Logs for this info.
This solution is very unwieldy - we recycle the logs daily and we only keep the logs of the last 7 days.

How can i find the querey execution time in sql 2000.

Thanks!
Thank you to all that take the time to read this!
All software is installed on a single development pc. I have a SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition Database that I am using to test a new Accounting System. SQL Server 2000 is the required format. I would like to start developing some SRSS reports against that database. It was suggested that I install the SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services, because I was told 2005 is less buggy and easier to use. I installed SRSS 2005, and only SRSS 2005, and used the Configuration Tool to get it configured properly, I think. I have green checks on everything except "Email Settings" and "Execution Account"
Now, I want to write some reports. BIDS is not under the "Microsoft SQL Server 2005" program group, only "Configuration Tools". I was also told that I could use Visual Studio to write reports. I installed Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition. When I go start a new project, "Business Intelligence€? is not a project type or sub-type.
What do I need to do so I can either install BIDS or use VS 2005 to write reports?

I am using sql server as back end. Through connection string
I am getting database name. But in A dropdown I want to show list of table in
that database. And in another B drop down I want to show fields of table
selected in A dropdown. can any one help in getting the field .
Ok, please pardon my complete ignorance; but I am extremely SQL challenged. I manage the server right now and I am the closest thing to a DBA at the moment with this server.
Here is the problem. I have a job that runs every hour and until last week it was running without any problems. Now, once a day it hangs, and I end up having to restart sql to get it to be functional again. I guess I could just kill the spid, but regardless, it's fails.
It doesn't happen at the same time each day. I thought it was from the backups doing a SQL backup job, but I eliminated that possibility. I can't find what is causing the problem, because the SQL logs just stop at the time that this happens. It's like some other job/query is running and taking all the sql server resources. But I can never catch it when it's happening and I have no event logs or SQL logs to go on.
Is there any query that I can run to find what happened around the specific time the job failed to run? I just need to find what process did what when this job stopped working.
Again, I apologize if my lack of SQL knowledge is making me ask dumb questions, but I am really lost.
Thanks in advanced!

Is there a Tool/Utility/StoredProcedure/Query/View that can tell me the last time the data in a particular table was changed?
That change can be the result of either an ADD , INSERT, or DELETE statement.
I am using SQL Server 2005.
I have a dataset (DATA) like this-
Store Start End Type

YYYY 03-03-2015 20:21:00 03-03-2015 20:27:00 1
The output of this file (RESULT) is-
Store Start End Mins of Type 2 only
XXXX 02-03-2015 10:04:00 02-03-2015 10:12:00 00:01:30
YYYY 02-03-2015 20:04:00 02-03-2015 20:27:00 00:05:00
So for each Store (Store is unique in the table), I am rolling up the intervals with overlaps to create a single interval.
Now, for each store, I want to find the time period for purely type 2. So if there is an overlap, type 1 has the dominance. And I want the sum of time period of whatever is left for type 2.
I have written this code but not able to address the overlap issue:
alter table [DATA] add Outage float;
update [DATA]
set Outage = DATEDIFF(SECOND,[Start],[END])
alter table [RESULT] add [Outage_Type1 (%)] float,[Outage_Type2 (%)] float;
[Code] ....
