How To Move A Table From A File Group(primary) To Another
Oct 8, 2007
Hi,
I´m trying to move one table to another filegroup, the actual table is created in the primary group, so I´m trying to do this:
ALTER DATABASE hemsa_dev
ADD FILEGROUP Bitacora
- .- add mi file group
ALTER DATABASE hemsa_dev
ADD FILE
(
NAME = hemsa_devBitacora,
FILENAME = 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatahemsa_devBitacora.ndf',
SIZE = 500MB,
MAXSIZE = Unlimited,
FILEGROWTH = 10%
) TO FILEGROUP Bitacora
-- And I want to add my table in my new filegroup
-- Im trying with:
ALTER TABLE BitacoraPeso ON bitacora
- - or

Is there a way to move the primary log file for a database to another drive without doing this with a restore database operation? I have added a second log log file but now I would like to delete the one that was created when the database was created.

Just ran the 6.5 to 7.0 upgrade. It put all tables into a 1 large file. Is there a way to move a single table out of the file and into a second filegroup?

I have to move  all the tables in a database from one file group to another file  group.All my tables have millions of records and the indexes are in correct file group but not the tables. How much time will it take to complete the whole process ?

Why shrinkfile empty file does not redistribute data evenly in the primary file group with multiple files:
Please run the script attached to see what the end result is.
This is what I set up last night on my test machine.
1) Create database [FGTest] size 200MB
2) Create table called TEST on primary
3) Insert 40MB of data into test
4) Create another file group called temp in primary size 200MB
5) Shrinkfile('FGTest',emptyfile) so that all data is transfered from FGTest into temp file group.
6) Add another 2 files called DATA2 and DATA3. Both are 200MB.
7) We now have 3 empty files that I want data distributed evenly on. FGTest, DATA2 & DATA3
8) Shrinkfile('temp',emptyfile) to move all the data from temp over the 3 file groups evenly
I would expect at this stage to have the following:
FGTest = 13MB,
DATA2 = 13MB,
DATA3 = 13MB
(40MB of data over 3 files should be about 13 MBish in each file)
What I actually end up with is this:
FGTest = 20MB
DATA1 = 10MB
DATA2 = 10MB
It looks as though SQL Server is allocating 50% of all data to the original file and then 50% evenly over
the remaining files in PRIMARY.

Weird. I have an Agent job that populates some warehouse data every night. It's been working fine for over a year. Then it fails with a message that thePRIMARY file group is full. The database is set to Simple recovery, automatic, unrestricted growth by 10% for both the log file and the data file. The drive it's on has 96GB free. The data file is 1.5GB and the log is 2MB and there's not very much fluctuation in the amoutn of data going into it.
Anybody have an idea why that would happen?
Thanks for any insight,Pete

Customer site has detached their database and deleted the .ldf file and reattached because they want to decrease the log file size. They set their log size to restricted file growth and 5mb. After about 20 minutes they started getting "Transaction log is full" so I had them up the transaction log to 50mb. After about another 20 mins everyone on the network started getting errors saying that data cannot be added because the PRIMARY file group was full ("Could not allocate space for object TrussLumber in Database ATP because the primary file group is full").
There is plenty of disk space so I know thats not the problem. And they can add data to other databases, so I cant imagine what could possibly be causing this....Can anyone help me out?
Thanks!
Craig

I have a database around 500 GB. right now the database have only one data file and one log, it has only one filegroup also.all the indexes and table are placed in Primary Filegroup . we are going to separate them. the planing is to move all the indexes to Secondary filegroup and all the table will be in Primary filegroup.But there will be a problem while implementing it because there are around 600 tables and each table have at least 2 non-clustered index , so is there any way to move all the index to Secondary Filegroup.

A little background on what I am trying to achieve first. We are moving to Azure virtual machines and we will have 8 disks on the SQL Server box. I am adding more files to the primary file group and each file will go on its own drive. I am then rebalancing data across these files by rebuilding all of the indexes on the tables which is working fine. No problems so far all is good.
I now have an additional problem. If there is a lob or blob column on the table, rebuilding the clustered index and all the non clustered indexes doesn't rebalance the blob or lob data across the disks such as it does with in row data.
I cannot find any articles on rebalancing lob or blob data because all the articles say to move to a new file group. I do not want a new file group, I just want to use the primary file group where the data already resides, and just redistribute it evenly in the same way that I can in row data which is working fine.
One solution I thought about was to BCP data out of the table, truncate the table and then BCP back into the table which I imagine would have the desired effect of distributing the data evenly over the files.

Hi all
I have a table called ACTIVATION_CONSUMPTION which is in PRIMARY file group, in order to move this table to new file group [FG_ACTV], I have done the following
1. ALTER DATABASE [MYDB] ADD FILEGROUP [FG_ACTV] (i have not attached a file to this file group)
2. IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.indexes WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[ACTIVATION_CONSUMPTION]') AND name = N'ACTIVATION_CONSUMPTION_PK')
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[ACTIVATION_CONSUMPTION] DROP CONSTRAINT [ACTIVATION_CONSUMPTION_PK]
GO
3.ALTER TABLE [dbo].[ACTIVATION_CONSUMPTION] ADD CONSTRAINT [ACTIVATION_CONSUMPTION_PK] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[ACTIVATION_CONSUMPTION_ID] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ONLINE = OFF) ON [FG_ACTV]
The above command executed successfully and now the table is in new file group [FG_ACTV]
My question is how come the table was moved to new file group though it has no files attached to it?
Thanks in advance.

How can we use the SQL INSERT statement in the stored procedure to create a table in a user specified filegroup? Table1 will be created by using the following SQL script and will be placed in a default filegroup. The question is can this table been created in a specified filegroup other than default filegroup.
INSERT INTO Table1(col1,col2)
SELECT col1,col2
FROM Table2
Example, userA table assign to userA filegroup. userB table assign to userB filegroup. Usually by using CREATE statement you can put the table on a specific filegroup as long as a predefined filegroup has been hard coded in the script. I appreciate any inputs.

Hi There
I am running SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, i want to split my data and indexes on different drives.
In 2000 i had to recreate clustered indexes and non clustered indexes on the correct filegroups to accomplish this.
In 2005 i see there is a ALTER TABLE MOVE TO Filegroup option, thats cool.
Does this effectively do the same as rebuilding the clustered index on the new filegroup? Will this leave the other indexes of the table on the primay filegroup or move them as well ?
If i wanted to also move the non clustered indexes is there a better way to move them that drop and re-create on the new filegroup in 2005, i see the ALTER INDEX statement does not support a move to filegroup option.
In a nutshell what is the best/easiest way to move exisitng table data and indexes to new file groups in Sql Server 2005 Enterprise Edition?
Thanx

Provided that we have 2 type of tables, the first type of tables with schema schema_a and the second type with schema schema_b.Also 2 filegroups apart from primary created: filegroup_a and filegroup_b.How can I configure so that when table with schema schema_a created, it can be put on filegroup filegroup_a automatically and when table with schema schema_b created, it can be put on filegroup filegroup_b automatically?

I need to modify a table to reside on a new filegroup and also point TEXTIMAGE_ON to that filegroup instead of PRIMARY. Apparently in the past, the only way to achieve this via SQL is to create a new table, copy over data, drop the old table and rename the new table to the original name. I found this solution in the SQL Server 2005 forum.
Is there any other way to alter this table in order to point the TEXTIMAGE_ON to new filegroup using SQL Server 2014? We are on Standard edition. The technique I am using is the drop constraint (with move option) and add constraint (to new filegroup) commands. The data and indexes move, but not the text data (it still is in primary filegroup).

I have a report with two groups and a detail row (subtotals & totals to follow). When I add the child (detail row) it pushes out to the right of the parent column. Is there any way to start the detail row all the way back to the left hand side of the page? I lose a lot or real estate with the group descriptions.

I am having an issue with the File System Task.
I was wondering if there is a way to 'Move File' with the File System Task inside of a For Each Loop container but to dynamically set the Destination path variable.
Currently, this is what I have:
FileDestinationPath variable - set to C:TestFiles
FileSourcePath variable - set to C:TestFiles
FileNameAndLocation variable - set to blank
For Each Loop Container €“ Iterates through a folder C:TestFiles that has .txt files in it with dates in the file name. Ex: Test_09142006.txt. Sets the file path (fully qualified) to the Variable Mapping FileNameAndLocation.
Script Task (within For Each Loop, first step) €“ Sets the FileDestinationPath to the correct dated folder within C:TestFiles. For example, if the text files I want to move are for the 14th of September, it takes FileDestinationPath and appends the date folder to the end of it. The text files have a date in the file name (test_09142006.txt) and I am picking this apart (from FileNameAndLocation in the For Each Loop) to get the folder date. (dts.Variables(€œUser::FileDestinationPath€?).Value = dts.Variables(€œUser::FileDestinationPath€?).Value & €œ€? Month & €œ_€? & Day & €œ_€? & Year & €œ€?) which gives me €œC:TestFiles 9_14_2006€?.
File System Task (within For Each Loop, second step) €“ This is where the action is supposed to occur. I want it to take the FileDestinationPath and move the FileNameAndLocation file (from the For Loop) into this folder for each run.
Now as for my problem. I want this package to run everyday but it has to set the FileDestinationPath variable dynamically according to that day€™s date. Basically, how do I get this to work since I can€™t hard code the destination path variable from the start? I have the DestinationVariable on the File System Task set to the FileDestinationPath variable, after the script task builds it. However, using FileNameAndLocation as the SourceVariable on my File System Task tells me that the €œVariable €œFileNameAndLocation€? is used as a source or destination and is empty.€?
Let me know if I need to clarify further€¦...I may be missing something very simple. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I need to move specific files from a server to another server on a monthly basis. Â There are hundreds of files that are in the source directory and I need to move approximately 40 of those to the destination server. Â I would like to easily add or delete the file list as needed. Â I have seen where several variables were created for for each file name (and one for the path) and the ForEach Loop would go through them. Â With 40 or more I was thinking that I could make a connection to an Excel spreadsheet or text file with a record for each file name and read in and and move to the next record and make that value become the content of a "FileName" variable. Â Then if I wanted to add another file name I could just add another record to spreadsheet/text file or remove and the package would handle automatically....

Hello
I want to move and rename a file and embed the date/time into it, so that each time the package runs a new file is created. For example MyFile_20060712_150000.doc.
Can someone give me a hint how to do this with the File Systen Task SSIS Control Flow Item?
Thanks for an early reply

I have a table with multiple products from different suppliers. there will duplicate products in my db as Supplier A may stock the same product as Supplier B. I have a business rule that only one unique product can be online at one time and as such I want the cheapest product from the 2 Suppliers to be displayed where there is a match.
I have been trying a Group By clause and also a partition by but my problem is returning the primary key for the winning row (minimum price).
here is an example
CREATE TABLE #TempTable(
productcode nvarchar(50),
productname varchar(50),
productmanufacturer varchar(50),
saleprice money,
tyrewidth varchar(5),
[Code] ....
How can I return the productcode in the above query for the row with the cheapest price? If I try MIN(productcode) or MAX(productcode) it will not always return the product code associated to the min price.

Hi All,
I am having a problem using the file system task, what I am trying to achieve is to move a file after it has been processed . I am using a For each loop container to process bunch of files but I want to remove the files that have been processed after every loop.To achieve this I added a File System Task after my data flow task and was using the same variable used in the for each loop container as my source variable but the package is not being validated and is gives the following error
"variable used as the source or the destination is empty"
Appreciate your help
Thanks

I have 3 synchronous AlwaysON replicas: A, B and C. A is primary, B and C are secondary and both are set to Automatic recovery. How can I understand, which of them (B or C) will become primary when A goes offline? Well, Actually my final DB system should support following configuration:
1) Normally - A is primary B and C are sync secondary.
2) if A fails, B automatically becomes primary, C remains Sync secondary.
3) if A goes online, it becomes primary againÂ
4) C becomes primary only after A and B fail (and there still should be cluster quorum!)
As I understood, first of all i should configure quorum the following way: A-0, B-1, C-1, folder-witness-1.
The problem, again, is: I cannot understand how to configure which replica becomes primary when AG fails over.
