Hi,
My replication application need to be able to skip the from-last-stop remaining logs (that means to skip the logs generated from the last stop time of my replication application), how can i realize it? thanks.
Can anyone direct me to a code that would automatically apply transaction logs to a DB in the standby server? We have a process that dumps the transaction log backup from the primary server into the backup server every hour on the hour, but I need to apply that transaction log as soon as it is in the standby server.
I am sure someone will ask, why not do transactional replication or log shipping? My answer to that is I have yet to learn how to setup replication between servers. I need to get our backup server up and running in the next few days.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Guru's,
It takes me a long time to view in EM under Mangement/SQL Server Logs/current file. Is there a way I can shorten that file so it won't take so long to view the current file?
Thanks in advance. :eek:

HI,
I want to know if there's an easier way to do a calculation on the remaining total of the months. For example: month 09 would be (total *3 ) because 9+3 = 12 and there are 12 months in a year.
month total
01 2217.3700
02 2187.6600
03 2243.6500
04 2216.1000
05 2374.4200
06 2296.2200
07 2266.6000
08 2164.2600
09 2085.2400
I have two SQL tables
Coupon and Coupon CouponStore
In Coupon there is a column of CouponID and in CouponStore the same column name.
Also in CouponStore there is a column called StoreID that has the value of each store 1, 2, 3 and 4.
How would I write a script to map any CouponID in the Coupon table to each Store Value that are not already mapped to a StoreID?
OS: Windows 2012 Enterprise
SQL Server: 2012 Enterprise
I was wondering if there is any way all SQL Server error log entries could be automatically written to Windows Event Log.
recently i noticed that my trans Log size is not increasing(it is constant) , but the databse size is increasing at high speed.
why is it so? earlier the reverse used to happen i.e databse size increased only after a certain period. and log size increased at const. rate.
I have already created Tran. Replication for one database and it is working fine. But i have added 3 tables to the database and i want to do replication for that tables with same publications . I mean i can go to Publishers Properties and add articles but the problem is:
1)When i run the snapshot agent,it creates the snapshot whole database which is bigger in size .
2)Is there a way i can run snapshot agent for remaining articles in same publication.
3)How to do it step by step
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks

Hello,
I need to pull records from single table such that I get a subset defined like this:
(
acctcode = 'xh364'
and
product = 'T&E'
)
And return all of the rest of the records:
(
acctcode = '%'
and
product = '%'
)
Can I do this within a WHERE clause, or will this require CASE / ELSE? There will be other specific acctcode/product rules that will be added later. I could do this with a UNION, but I need to avoid that if possible.
Thank you for your help!

Hi
I have seen the threads already in here about connections and SQL Server but I too am having a connection pool problem.
I am explicitly making a connection, creating a command object, executing a datareader then closing the command and then disposing the connection. The connection just prior to the dispose is definately closed.
However when I do an sp_who in SQL Server the connection is still listed. I have a connection timeout of 30 seconds, so I am considering reducing this to 5 seconds but dont wish to. So therefore when a process is called repeatedly instead of using an existing connection in the pool, it thinks that this connection is still active and therefore creates a new connection. Because all of this is in an ascx, I cant code for one connection to stay open for all 30 instances of the control.
This is a problem because I am creating controls at run time and using page.databind and at that point, I exceed the connection pool and therefore the site crashes out to the "SQL Server Timeout" error.
Anyone else seen this?
Hi,
In my case I have to log the errors raised by any task in a package to either windows event log, text file or SQL server. Also I need to send an email notifications to a group of people telling them about the error.
Now can I use SSIS package logging for logging the errors into the required destinations. I mean right clicking on the package and selecting Logging, then adding the required log providers and enabling the events for logging into those. I think I have to upfront select the log providers to log the error, I will not have the liberty to log the error to the destination, the name of which is passed as a variable to the package. This is okay with me though.
Now what will a custom log provider help me to do in this case. Also can I somehow configure my package to call the send mail task everytime an error is raised.
Also, one more option can be developing a package that only does the error handling. It will take in the paramters or the error codes and descriptions, the destination to write to and a flag to send mail or not for that particular type of error.
What do you think? Kindly advise.
Thanks in advance for your help and time.

I have a table 'library' with two columns
user_name, access_time
every user is having more than 500 entries, i want to keep only top 50 records for every user and delete the remaining records.
When looking at SQL Server error logs, I noticed that the current error
log had grown to 1MB whereas most of the files are only a few KB.
QUESTION 1: Can I set the max size for an error log file? If so, how?
QUESTION 2: If not, is there a workaround?
Thanks
Hello everyone,
I have a package that extracts data from a Flat File. If any errors or truncation occur during the extraction of the input data, the package should fail. All fields that have erroneous values should be reported in the log file.
My Solution:
- I have created a Data Flow Task that contains a Flat File Source Adapter and a dummy destination.
- I have left the default "Error Output" configuration of the Flat File Source adapter, namely if a truncation or an error occur for a certain column, then the reaction is "Fail Component".
Problem:
This configuration gives me only the first erroneous column in the row being processed.
Question:
Is it possible to make the Flat File Source adapter continue parsing the current row before it fails? This way, I would be able to get all the erroneous columns in the row in one shot.
Thanks in advance...

I've this query
SELECT
t1.ID, t1.Date, t1.Time,
t1.VALUE
FROM RESULT WHERE t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
Let's say, current date is 8 AUG 2005 and current time is 2045
So, i will get
ID | Date (this is datetime) | Time (this is integer) | Value
--------------------------------------------------
204 | 8/1/2005| 2359 | 90
205 | 8/1/2005| 2250 | 99
206 | 8/1/2005| 1950 | 88
...

207 | 8/7/2005| 1845 | 77
208 | 8/7/2005| 2255 | 77
209 | 8/7/2005| 2140 | 77
Can someone can show me to filter data between
t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND TIME>=CurrentTime
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101) AND TIME<=CurrentTime
If current date is 8 AUG 2005 and current time is 2045, so the result shown as follow
ID | Date (this is datetime) | Time (this is integer) | Value
--------------------------------------------------
204 | 8/1/2005| 2359 | 90
205 | 8/1/2005| 2250 | 99
...
...
207 | 8/7/2005| 1845 | 77
I only have this query,
SELECT
t1.ID, t1.Date, t1.Time,
t1.VALUE
FROM RESULT WHERE t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
lack of idea to put the TIME condition.

Does any one know, how to skip the first and last row of a text file while importing using DTS.
ThankX in advance.
I have a table with about half a million records, each representing a patient in my county.
Each record has a field (RRank) which basically sorts the patients as to how "unwell" they are according to a previously-applied algorithm. The most unwell patient has an RRank of 1, the next-most unwell has RRank=2 etc.
I have just deleted several hundred records (which relate to patients now deceased) from the table, thereby leaving gaps in the RRank sequence. I want to renumber the remaining recs to get rid of the gaps.
I can see what I want to accomplish by using ROW_NUMBER, thus:
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank) as RecNumber, RRank
FROM RPL
ORDER BY RRank
I see the numbers in the RecNumber column falling behind the RRank as I scan down the results
My question is: How to convert this into an UPDATE statement? I had hoped that I could do something like:
UPDATE RISC_PatientList_TEMP
SET RRank = ROW_NUMBER() Over (ORDER BY RRank);
but the system informs that window functions will only work on SELECT (which UPDATE isn't) or ORDER BY (which I can't legally add).
Hi,another problem I have is that have compounded fields in my sql table.Exampleproduct@customerI need a simple function to return "customer", so it should return the valueafter "@", unfortunate "@" will sometimes be character number 6, sometimescharacter number 7 etc.regardsJorgen

Hello:
I have one table and it contains a column named ID Number, and a column named Date. I have a Do While statement that runs a SQL select statement a few times based on the number of records with the same ID Number. During the Do While statement the information is copied into another table and deleted from the old table. After I look at the results, I see that at the second Do While loop, the data was not selected and the Select statement did not run... so the old variable value from varValue is used again... Any reasons on why?
Here is a code snippet of what is going on:
Do While varCount < varRecordCount
conSqlConnect.Open()
cmdSelect = New SqlCommand ("Select * From temp_records_1 where [id number]=@idnumber and date<@date", conSqlConnect)
cmdSelect.Parameters.Add( "@accountnumber", "10000" )
cmdSelect.Parameters.Add( "@date", dtnow )
dtrdatareader = cmdSelect.ExecuteReader()
While dtrdatareader.Read()
If IsDbNull(dtrdatareader("value")) = false Then
varValue = dtrdatareader("value")
End If
End While
dtrdatareader.Close()
conSqlConnect.Close()
'#####The information above is copied to another table here
'#####The record where the information was received is deleted.
varCount = varCount + 1
LoopAny ideas?
Hello somebody,
I submitted an update query on a table of 80 million rows, in the weekend. When I returned on Monday, the transaction was still running. I thought some thing wrong happened and cancelled the transaction. It was taking long time to rollback the transaction. I recycled the SQL Server assuming it will do faster recovery. Now I realised that anyway it is going to take lot of time. And SQL server is not going to be up till the database is recoverd completely.
Now can any body suggest me any thing to faster this process or skip this process. I dont know how long it is going to take rollback the transaction which ran for more than 70 hours.
Thanx in advance.
I was attempting to use BCP today via xp_cmdshell. I have never done anything with BCP before, so it was very enlightening. However, I ran across a problem that maybe someone could help explain to me a little more.
I am using the "queryout" option, and when I run it, the error I get is that you "can't skip fields except for on inserts" or something like that.
The reason I was trying to use bcp is the ability to dynamically generate a filename, i.e. filename = 04182004 (the date). Because in the file name argument, I can use a variable. Make sense?
Since I apparently can't ignore fields, I am thinking of taking all of the information I need daily out, and into a seperate table, then I can use the xp_cmdshell to run a bcp that creates a file with the date as a filename, and I won't be ignoring any fields because I have just put the information I need in the new table. Am I making sense? Does this sound like an appropriate thing to do?
Hello
I am tryung to execute a Store Proc using Execute SQL Task.
I am very aware that if there is any errors occur I have handled it sufficiently.
All I want to do is, when ever there are any errors in teh Store Proc then this Execute SQL task should not fail and it should go for the next Task in teh control flow.
How can I do this?
Hi,
There is an option in ssis to skip one or more header rows, but there isn't any thing to skip one or more footer rows.
Example:
header bla bla
1;"Joe";24;"New York"
2;"John";54;"Washington"
3;"Phil";36;"San Francisco"
footer bla bla
I skip the first record in the source definition. So I have left 4 records. How do I skip the fourth (last) record? The value contains some statistics so I cann't look for a special value. Is there a way to skip the last record with a script component?

Hello All,Does the BCP utility enable you to selectively import rows from a flatfile to a table ?For example:The first column in my flat file contains a record type - 1, 2..7I only need to import types 1, 2, & 3Can this be specified in the .fmt file ?Thanks in advancehharry
View 4 Replies View RelatedHence you have a database which huge tables and a transactional replication (push subscriptions).
Now my question:
1. if I have to initialize a snapshot but I would like to do it without the snapshot agent, what methods are available?
2. Usually the distribution agent will request an initialize snapshot. How can I tell him, that I would like to use an alternative method and that the distribution agent should NOT request a snapshot?
3. Any suggestions about a good practive for materializing huge and big tables wihtout using the disitrbution agent (e.g. "switch off" replication, bcp table out of the primary site and bcp it into the target site, "start" distribution agent so that it doesn't request a snapshot).

Hi,
How to skip my 12 header rows from XLS input source?
(before the Excel driver reads (by default, 8 rows) in the specified source to guess at the data type of each column.)
thx,
f.sor
I am importing a flatfile and cannot seem to deal with an issue that seems quite simple.
The files have a header row with column names and those rows start with '#'
However sometimes this header row will also be present in the middle of the file.
The Source tries to parse this row and fails
Is there any way to tell the flafile source to skip rows that start with a particular character like comment rows?
