Lock Granularity And Performance Issues

Jun 9, 2008

Hi I have a few things to clear up and I hope i can find some answers in here.
I have an application written in C# using COM+ components
This application is intended to support a few hundred users at the same time and each action user leads to a few updates on several tables.
The problem is that 2 or more users might do this thing the same time meaning that each users should update rows that "belong" the other users .
I rely on the appearance of deadlocks in order to keep the data consistent, so only one of the users should be able to have this action completed, the transactions for the other concurrent users should abort.
Basically the results would be the same no matter which user will complete the transaction so the only issue is to have only one action completed. So far so good, it seems that I have no problems and that the data is consistent.

Now the reason why I'm here would be that lately i see that the number of deadlocks has increased considerably and there should be no reason for this to happen; the situations when the users would modify each others data are somehow rare and I should see a few hundred deadlocks daily
So what i think is that SQL might increases the lock granularity to table or page instead of using row locks(I am not sure it's just a wild guess)
From what I've read, sql starts with default row lock and it might increase it when necessary.

And now finally the question: can I force sql to use only row lock? and if yes are there any risks involved? Is sql capable to maintain only this kind of lock and still be able to manage the transactions correctly?
And another question, how do deadlock decrease overall performance?

Replication Performance Degrade In Unidirectional Direction And Lock Time Out (Update Are High Than Inserts)

Feb 21, 2007

 

We recently implemented merge replication.We were expereincing. The replication is between 2 SQL Servers (2005) over same network box, and since we have introduced the replication, the performance has degraded considerably on subscriber end.

1)   One thing that should be mention is that its a "unidirectional Direction" flow of changes is from publisher towards subscriber (only one publisher and distributor as well and one subscriber ).

2) Updates are high than inserts and only one article let say "Article1" ave update up to 2000 per day and i am experiecing that dbo.MSmerge_upd_sp_Article1_GUID taking more cpu time.what should be do..

 

on subscriber database  response time is going to slow and i am experiencing a lot of number of LOCK time outs on application end.

can any one can also suggest me server level settings for aviding locking time out.

 

looking for any experieced solution/suggestion.

Thanks in advance.

Index Granularity

Hi,

I was looking at the new index locking granularity option available in 2005. I did not understand in what case can this be a performance enhancement. Has anybody looked into this ?

Time Dimension According To Different Granularity

May 29, 2008

Hi,
I got inventory fact table. For the past two weeks, I got on a daily level; beyond that, weekly level, and beyond that monthly. I need to tie it all in to the time dimension of course €“ and the problem is, how do I do it on different granularity?
As far as time dimension, tn the datamart, I got tables dim_date with key column date_id (int) , and correspondingly dim_week with week_id(int) and dim_month with month_id(int).

What I€™ve done so far, is created a time dimension from dim_date table (meaning granularity=daily) and simply tied in all the inventory €“ daily, weekly, monthly, on the day level (it all has date_id field in it, even the weekly and the monthly. Its simply the day of the end of week or end of month) I didn€™t tie anything to dim_week and dim_month.
Does that makes sense? The result is kind of strange. I cant upload an image here, but€¦ well it seems ok, I got year, week (€˜GL Week€™) and then €¦ this is the annoying thing: why am I getting a €˜date€™ column, when I only want it by week or by month? I can€™t make that column disappear (e.g when in time hierarchy I only group by month, still a €˜day€™ column will be there, and will show 4 days€¦ the 4 €˜end of week€™ that comes from €˜date_id€™.)
How do I make it go away??

Thanks for reading : ) I know it€™s a bit long

Sum At A Lower Level Of Granularity

May 19, 2008

Hi all,
I have a big problem with the design and the queries of a couple of tables. I have to calculate the weighted average of the number of days between an invoice and the sum of its payments (rateal payments), weighting this number with the invoice's amount, and only when the sum of the invoice's payments equal invoice amount.
I have designed two FactTables to accomplish this:

Example:
data in the fist table (FactInvoice) looks like this:

CustomerId, InvoiceDate, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceAmount
1234567 2008-03-10 123 1000.00
1234567 2008-04-10 150 2000.00

and data in the second one (FactPayments) looks as below:


CustomerId, PaymentDate, InvoiceNumber, PaymentsAmount
1234567 2008-03-10 123 500
1234567 2008-03-15 123 500
1234567 2008-04-20 150 800
1234567 2008-04-23 150 1200




Let's suppose that I'm querying the cube for the customer 1234567, at the date 2008-05-01. I need to sum the payments for the first invoice multiplicating it for the count of days elapsed, then divide the number by the InvoiceAmount (or PaymentsAmount, is the same) : (0 days * 500‚¬ + 5 days * 500‚¬ + 10 days * 800‚¬ + 13 days * 1200)/3000‚¬ = 8,7 days of weighted average to cash an invoice.

How can I do this with Analisys Services ? Is it too complicated ? Here, in the southern Italy, the problem of customer's debit is heavily felt, and total like this are really important!
Any help or suggestion will be really appreciated.

Budget On Different Granularity In Organization Hierarchy (which Is SCD)

May 27, 2008

Hi everyone

I am struggling with adding budget numbers to a cube. The main reason being that the budget is *not* on the finest granularity (employee) with regard to the organization hierarchy but on a coarser one (team).


The organization hierarchy is a "flat" (not parent-child) hierarchy that looks about like that:

employee -> team -> teamgroup -> region -> country


As mentioned I now have budget numbers that are defined on the team-level (not on the employee level as "regular" measures). I would know assume that I could put the budget data into its own table and "link" it with the organization through the "team" attribute. I would do that on the "dimesion usage"-tab.

The problem with this approach is that the organization is changing (SCD type 2). This essentially means that by linking to the "team" attribute the aggregation of the budget data on higher levels of the organization hierarchy can be ambiguous (at least that is what I understand).

Example organization table:



Code Snippet
surrKey busKey empName teamId teamGroupId regionId countryId ... scdStuff
1 1 Raphael 1 1 1 1 ...
2 2 Jeanne 2 2 1 1 ...
3 3 George 3 3 1 1 ...
4 2 Jeanne 2 3 1 1 ...



That would mean that on some point in time team 2 (consisting of one employee, Jeanne) moved from teamgroup 2 to teamgroup 3. Just for the sake of a simple example.

Now, what am I to do with my budget data in this situation? I cannot link it to the teamId, because teamId = 2 for example cannot specify if the value should be aggregated into teamgroup 2 or teamgroup3...


I have a feeling that this got something to do with the design of the organization-table but I am unsure about what the actual problem is. Any hint, pointer or solution would be appreciated. If the question is unclear, please let me know and I will try to clarify.


Kind regards
scherand

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. ErrorCode: "+(DT_WSTR,10)@[System::ErrorCode]+" ErrorMsg: "+@[System::ErrorDescription]+"', @FILES_PROCESSED = '" + @[User::t_ProcessedFiles] + "', @PKG_EXECUTION_ID = '" + @[System::ExecutionInstanceGUID] + "'"

From progress:

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

OnError - Task SQL Insert Error Msg
Error: A deadlock was detected while trying to lock variable "System::ErrorCode, System::ErrorDescription, System::ExecutionInstanceGUID, System::StartTime, User::FEED_ID, User::t_ProcessedFiles" for read access. A lock could not be acquired after 16 attempts and timed out.

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

Security Need Thoughts: Ease Of Admin And Granularity

Oct 3, 2005

I like the new gig a lot. Real busy, smart folks and I have been in high demand since 5 minutes after my butt hit the chair. I already have code in production.

Anyhow, we have a security situation on the sql servers I pointed out on my first day. So they want me to roll everything over to Windows Authentication and give the developers and report writers more restricted rights inside SQL Server. So they have NT Groups for different kinds of users and all of that jazz and I layed on the typical stuff about using NT groups vs individual accounts and ease of admin vs granularity of control. Well the boss came back and said he wants ease of admin and granularity of control over security. So, does anyone have any fresh thinking on turning my eitheror into an AND.

GROUP BY Speed Up Query On Data That Is Already At Lowest Granularity?

Jul 9, 2015

I have just been running a query which I was planning on improving by removing a redundant GROUP BY (there are about 20 columns, and one of the columns returned is atomic, so will mean that the "group by" will never manage to group any of the data) but when I modified the query to remove the grouping, this actually seems to slow the query, and I can't see why this would be the case.

Both queries return the same number of rows (69000), as I expected, and looking at the query plan, then they look nearly identical, other than at the start, there is a "stream aggregate" and "sort" being performed. The estimated data size is 64MB for the non-grouped query (runs in 6 min 41 secs), vs 53MB for the aggregated query (runs in 5 min 31 secs), and the estimated row size is smaller when aggregated.

Can rationalise this? In my mind, the data that is being pulled is identical, plus there is extra computation for doing an unnecessary aggregation, so the aggregated query should be unquestionably slower, but the database engine has other ideas; it seems to be able to work more quickly when it needs to do unnecessary work :) Perhaps something to do with an inefficient query plan for the non-aggregated query? I would have thought looking at the actual execution plan might have made this apparent, but both plans look very similar.

Edit: More information, the "group by" query had two aggregations on it, a count of one of the columns, and an average of another one. I changed this so that it was just "1" instead of the count, and for the average, I changed it to be the expression within the average aggregate, since the aggregation effectively does not do anything.

Row Lock Versus Page Lock In SQL 2000.

Apr 7, 2004

Hi
We are facing an acute situation in our web-application. Technology is ASP.NEt/VB.NET, SQL Server 2000.

Consider a scenario in which User 1 is clicking on a button which calls a SQL stored procedure. This procedure selects Group A of records of Database Page1.

At the same time if User 2 also clicks the same button which calls same SQL stored procedure. This procedure selects Group B of records of Database Page1.

So, its the same Page1 but different sets of records. At this moment, both the calls have shared locked on the Page1 inside the procedure.

Now, in call 1, inside the procedure after selecting Group A of records, the next statement is and update to those records. As soon as update statement executes, SQL Server throws a deadlock exception as follows :

Transaction (Process ID 78) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction

We are able to understand why its happening. Its because, Group A and Group B of records are on the same Page1. But both the users have shared lock on the Page1. So, no one gets the exclusive lock in records for update, even though, the records are different.

How can I resolve this issue? How can I get lock on wanted rows instead of entire page?

Please advice. Thanks a bunch.

Analysis :: Linking Multiple Fact Table At Different Granularity To Same Dimensions

Jul 15, 2015

I am modelling two fact tables of Actuals and Budget which are at different granularity, Actuals are at day, customer and product sub category level. Budgets are at month, Region and Product category level.

Month, Region and Product Category is present in Date, Region and Product Category dimension respectively. I have only three dimensions as Customer, Product and Date. Linking those dimensions to Actual Fact table is not an issue, what is the best way and options are there to link budget fact table to those three dimensions.

ERROR: A Variable May Only Be Added Once To Either The Read Lock List Or The Write Lock List.

May 22, 2006

Hi,
I have set of 2 DTS packages, one of which calls the other by forming a command-line (dtexec) using a Execute Process task.

From the parent package-> Execute Process Task->
dtsexec /F etc... /<pkg variable> = "servername"

Each of the parent and the called package have a variable: "User::DWServerSQLInstance" which is mapped to the SQL server connection manager server name property using an expression. The outer package has the above variable and so does the inner called package (which gets assigned through the command line from the outerpackage call to inner)

I "sometimes" get the following error:

OnError,I4,TESTDOMAdministrator,ACDWAggregation,{A1F8E43F-15F1-4685-8C18-6866AB31E62B},{77B2F3C7-6756-46EB-8C01-D880598FB4B3},5/22/2006 5:10:28 PM,5/22/2006 5:10:28 PM,-1073659822,0x,The variable "User::DWServerSQLInstance" is already on the read list. A variable may only be added once to either the read lock list or the write lock list.

Help would be appreciated!

I have seen other posts on this but, not able to relate the solution to my scenario.

A Variable May Only Be Added Once To Either The Read Lock List Or The Write Lock List

May 10, 2006

Hi All,



I have seen a few other people have this error.

Package works fine when run from BIDS, DTExec, dtexecui. When I schedule it, It get these random errors. (See below)

The main culprit is a variable called "RecordsetFileDIR" which is set using an expression. (@[User::_ROOT] + "RecordSets\")

A number of other variables use this as part of their expression and as they all fail, pretty much everything dies.

I have installed SP1 (Not Beta) on server. Package uses config files to set the value of _ROOT.



The error does not always seem to be with this particular variable though. Always a variable that uses an expression but errors are random. Also, It will run 3 out of 10 times without a problem. I am the only person on the server at the time.

Any ideas?



Cheers,

Crispin

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

Extremely Poor Query Performance - Identical DBs Different Performance

Jun 23, 2006

Hello Everyone,I have a very complex performance issue with our production database.Here's the scenario. We have a production webserver server and adevelopment web server. Both are running SQL Server 2000.I encounted various performance issues with the production server with aparticular query. It would take approximately 22 seconds to return 100rows, thats about 0.22 seconds per row. Note: I ran the query in singleuser mode. So I tested the query on the Development server by taking abackup (.dmp) of the database and moving it onto the dev server. I ranthe same query and found that it ran in less than a second.I took a look at the query execution plan and I found that they we'rethe exact same in both cases.Then I took a look at the various index's, and again I found nodifferences in the table indices.If both databases are identical, I'm assumeing that the issue is relatedto some external hardware issue like: disk space, memory etc. Or couldit be OS software related issues, like service packs, SQL Serverconfiguations etc.Here's what I've done to rule out some obvious hardware issues on theprod server:1. Moved all extraneous files to a secondary harddrive to free up spaceon the primary harddrive. There is 55gb's of free space on the disk.2. Applied SQL Server SP4 service packs3. Defragmented the primary harddrive4. Applied all Windows Server 2003 updatesHere is the prod servers system specs:2x Intel Xeon 2.67GHZTotal Physical Memory 2GB, Available Physical Memory 815MBWindows Server 2003 SE /w SP1Here is the dev serers system specs:2x Intel Xeon 2.80GHz2GB DDR2-SDRAMWindows Server 2003 SE /w SP1I'm not sure what else to do, the query performance is an order ofmagnitude difference and I can't explain it. To me its is a hardware oroperating system related issue.Any Ideas would help me greatly!Thanks,Brian T*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

CPU Lock Up

Mar 27, 2001

Hello,

An application we are designing is behaving rather strangely. Basically, we
have a trigger on SQL 2000 on W2K Server watching for a record update. When
that happens a stored procedure gets executed which in turn spawns a VB that extracts that record, applies some rules to it, and writes a text file to disk. 9 out of 10 times, this program will cause a CPU spin, and it can't be killed from the Task Manager.

I did not write the VB app, I am writing the front end for the application in ColdFusion, but I need some ideas on what might be causing such behavior and how can the problem can be diagnosed. Thanks for any help!

DB Lock-up??!!

Mar 29, 2007

Hello,

Wondering if anyone might have a guess about this.

I have a small 4 table DB. it's got several stored proc's and it's accessed through .NET to fill it in and get data from it.

It's been working just fine. But this morning, while it was doing its thing, I experimented with it by adding then deleting a View (through the View Wizard.)

Then later I started noticing that my .Net calls had slowed to a crawl (I hadn't made any code changes)and even making direct queries through Query Analyzer had slowed too.

My question is: being that there were no network issues, could the View create/delete have caused the DB to come to a halt or perhaps a table lock-up?

While I'm at it, is there anything that I can put in stored proc's or other places to prevent locking issues (if that's what happened here.)

I already use Begin/Commit Tran pairs.

And sorry if this post doesn't read like a SQL beginner, but believe me, I am.

Thanks for your advice!!

Does the (nolock) command propegate down through the tables? Meaning will it scan tables that are locked still ignoring their locks?

How To Lock Out Everyone But Me?

Oct 13, 2006

I'm working with SQL Server Express, and I want to configure a named instance so that only the 'sa' user and a specified SQL Server user with a specified password have access. In particular, I'm trying to lock out BUILTINAdministrators. Furthermore, I need to be able to do this from a command-line, since I want to configure it in a script. Nothing I do seems to work.

I've attempted to use sqlcmd and the T-SQL call ALTER LOGIN [BUILTINAdministrators] DISABLE, but that returns the error "Cannot alter the login 'BUILTINAdministrators' because it does not exist or you do not have permission."

What I can (apparently) successfully do is run DENY CONTROL TO [BUILTINAdministrators]. This runs without reporting an error. However, after running it against the 'master' database and the specific database in my named instance I care about, I can still run the following:

sqlcmd -S (local)MyInstance -d MyDB -Q "select * from my_table"

and see the contents of my_table.

What do I need to do to restrict access exclusively to 'sa' and other SQL users I designate?

Transaction Lock

May 18, 2006

I have a process that is running on a windows service that feeds a web applications database.  While the windows service is processing the data the web application can't get to the data, this causes a minute or two delay, no so bad if it didn't happen every two minutes.  What I am wondering is if I can set something on the ado.net transaction object that might get me around this problem.  I don't know if i want a dirty read, because that would cause the web app to have exceptions.  Any tips around this would be great.  Thanks in advance
