I am a Sys Admin and I am studying SQL to obtain a dba. I am currently running through the 70-228 book and I have a couple questions maybe someone can set me straight.
For SQL Server backups we use Tivoli Storage Manager.
I am currently reading up on DTS, I have used DTS to move databases before. It is pretty straightforward. My question after reading about the usefullness of DTS packages is what are they used for commonly by DBA's? Are they used for backups or are they for pushing transformed data to secondary applications/db's. I see how it works but I want to connect the dots with real world uses.
Another question is about how much you tweak a SQL 2000 db. I have been told by people smarter than me, that very little is done to the DB's after they are created because SQL does a excellent job of optimizing itself. If I have a DB server that is suffering from a lot of I/O overhead what is a way that I can diagnose what is causing the issue. How could I tell if it was hardware growing pains or poor design?
I am pretty new to databases and was wondering whether you guys can help me out or point me in some sort of direction. I am working on my senior design project for college and my group decided to use SQL Server for our databasing needs. So far we installed SQL Server and created out database with permissions and all that stuff. So here is my question:
As of right now we are talking with a company (sniffer software) to get access to some of there code. This program provides information such as host ip and mac address, destination ip and mac address, protocol, port number, bits in, bits out, etc. What we wanted to do was get access to where this information is stored in there program and then push it to our database so we can do analysis on the data. But aside from getting access to this information in the program (we looked into writing an application that does all this ourselves but we are on a time limit) I am confused how to set the database up so that we can have automatic updates to the database using the information we pull from the program. I did a search here and did not find anything and i have been looking on google and the such and haven't had any luck finding anything that will point me in the right direction. If any of you guys can help us out with information it would be greatly appreciated
Hi all, ive just started on SQL server 2005 and Visual website developer. I have managed to start up a database and display it on the server.
But for my website, i need place 6-8 links to a catagory,and then to a sub-catagories. Im not sure on how to start such a thing and how to place links really - any chance of possible tutorial on the net? Thank you.
I have a fair bit of experience in designing database apps using VBA with MS Access for use on a single PC or for multiple users on an office LAN. I also have some limited web design skills using FrontPage 2000 and Adobe GoLive. However, I am now trying to find the best way (for me) to create a website with an associated online database - something I have never done before. Ideally, I want cheap or free software. I would also prefer visual design tools, like the Access interface.
I have some newbie questions:
SQL Server Express looks like it might be part of a solution. However, I would appreciate some guidance on the limitations of using this free software. What are the situations that would create a need for upgrading to one of the paid for versions of SQL Server?
Would the free webspace facilities provided via many ISP broadband services be suitable for hosting an SQL Server Express database or does this normally only come at extra cost?
What web design tools enable visual design of a website using SQL Server Express?
I have no experience of either SQL Server Express or MySQL, but are there any good reasons why one might choose one over the other?
Any guidance would be much appreciated. I realise I have much to learn!
just finished installing SQL Express, and now, dont know what to do next :) - I have installed FULL. Does it have any GUI tool for me to create a database? - how can I login into system? - how can I restore a backup file? I have a backup file from SQL 2005 standard - how can I create backup for databases?
I am a PHP/Delphi MySQL programmer for some years, now I am going to create some code in MS SQL and VB. So I downloaded and registered MS SQL 2005 Server Express Edition and some tools like SQL Server Studio Management Express, and VB 2005 Express.
As I have some knowledge of MySQL design and programming, I have installed MS software, rather without problems. Then, using Studio Management I created new database, new table in it with some four fields (int, varchars and smallint). Then from the same tool I opened table and inserted some data, and closed this application.
Next I opened Visual Basic and in Database Explorer I set up connection to my SQL database indicating the file it is stored in (path*.mdf). I ordered not to copy data to new file but to use original one.
Then in Data Sources I created new data source based on previously set connection. In the end I dragged and dropped my table from Data Sources into my new Form of my new Windows Application, nice grid with panel appeared. So I ran the app, I tried to put some data and then after trying to save (using floppy disk icon on panel) i got error: Update requires a valid UpdateCommand when passed DataRow collection with modified rows. which appears in event handler for saving in line i've indicated.
Me.Validate() Me.LudzieBindingSource.EndEdit() Me.LudzieTableAdapter.Update(Me.TestDataSet.ludzie ) ' <-- here highlights
I tried then to add to ID field identity specification, nothing changed. Then in query editor of management console I put some code: exec sp_configure 'user instances enabled', 1. Reconfigure.
As some sources mentioned. I restarted Service. Nothing Changed. So this is my problem. What to change.
I use Win XP Pro SP2.
And next one question, even more important for me is the way I connect to database. I found that in Visual Basic Creating new connection in Database Explorer I indicate the file on my local drive!!! And for example if I try to open my table alongside in Management Studio Express and in my App in VB and the error raises Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user 'FS7120Mm227'. which is not a surprise for me as in VB i am using file which cannot be shared.
In MySQL I simply put address, port and so on and I could use my database in Delphi, PHP, and another management tools with no hassle. Is it possible in VB? Or it only can be used to exclusive using database?
Please inform me if such questions shall be directed to VB forum, I am not sure, and thank you for _any_ answer.
MS goes right way giving people great possibility to use and even sell small apps using their Express Editions of SQL and VB, but it is still too confusing for people who encouraged start using their apps and have such basic problems.
I've been learning SSIS and the BIDS for a few weeks now and there are 2 things that really annoy me. I'm hoping that there is a setting or option or something that I'm missing.
1. I place objects on the Control Flow surface, get everything arranged the way I want it, constraint lines all nice and tidy and then save it. When I open it things aren't the way they were when I closed it. Any way to make them stay the same?
2. If I select multiple objects and copy them when I paste them they are in really interesting places. Any way to have them stay in the same realitive positions?
This is one of the most helpful forums I've ever posted in so thanks to you all for the assistance.
Hi, I have a report with 3 parameters. One of which is Company name. To get the available list for this I use a query: select distinct name from companies, etc. However, I also want the user to be able to select "All" or an equivalent to get all the companies. I tried putting * and % in the default values (non-query), but the drop down list displays "<select a value>". Also I've enabled drill-down, is there a way to auto-expand the results?
Running SQL Server 2000 on various servers. On my desktop when I open Enterprise Manager I notice that some of the instances show a green arrow and some show a blank circle. I imagine that might have to do with either permissions or the account that the SQL Server Service is running on. Is that correct?
I am using the sa account on these instances and they are all using mixed mode authentication.
Also, I can not stop or start a SQL Server Service from my Enterprise Manager. When I try to start the service from EM I get an 'Access Denied - Error 5 ' message.
Shouldn't I be able to stop/start these services without going to the box they are on?
I am using Merge Replication for my scenario (POS). I have made the publication (articles are a set of tables in DB ABC) and its subscription (in same DB and diff tables xyz1, xyz2). I have scheduled the push subscription as run continuously between Dates(e.g current date to 3 days ahead, just for testing). Now, Can I change this schedule? How can I edit/remove the artilce from the above publication?
I am setting up a development server with SQL 2005 Dev Ed beta 2. I have been going around in circles trying to find out how to create a database diagram. Microsoft really knows how to make things difficult! Would someone mind telling me how to build a diagram of my new database?
Well I have some queries as a newbie to SRSS 2000 reports deployment.
1) I have to build a VB .NET application with a web interface to display reports in that program. Is it possible? Is there any example codeing floating around which I can take a look? Or how to do it?
2) I have to pass the parameters for the report via a VB text box into the report and the report should be displayed. So the parameter bar in the report as it comes in IE7 should not come. How can I do that?
Or in simpler terms
- How to turn the SQL 2000 reporting features off to allow a simpler report display - How to display the report in a Microsoft Windows Form application.
Sql 2005 I want to grate execute permissions on my stored procedures to a role. While creating the role, it asks for "schemas owned by this role". To me, the schema is merely a namespace that allows you to group objects, but arent schemas such as db_datawriter roles that are central to the db and only admin type users should have ownership of these, correct ?
In a nutshell, I want to: create a new role and assign a user to that role with a stored procedure, grant execute permissions to this role
I was confused by the sql 2005 dialog that asks me to take ownership of roles such as db_datawriter, db_datareader etc, wouldnt that mess up other things with the database ?
help ...
I think its time I review all of the above items role user login schema
1) I have the Beta Preview of Roger Wolter's book on the subject. Has anything major changed from the beta version to the full version (of the book as well as the product)?
2) I want to build a front-end that queues requests for processing that is ultimately done by a standalone console application. The console app knows nothing about SQL Server 2005, so the database will have to fork/execute this app, pass it arguments on its command line, and pick up the result (written to either standard output or standard error) when it finishes. Is this possible with Service Broker? If so, how?
The following is a list of questions that I have not been able to obtain concrete answers. I am probably missing something: 1) ReadWriteVariables -- can the updated value for a ReadWriteVariable be accessed within the same data flow? It appears not as I think the PostExecute() fires at the completion of the data flow not the end of the Script Component. Secondarily, the Script Component is a non-blocking transformation so the component does not "see" the end of the pipeline prior to sending data down stream.
2) Record Count -- Because of #1 above, How could you calculate a record count for a data stream? It does not appear that one can calculate the number of records for a data stream within a data flow and then access the count from within the same data flow.
3) FinishOutputs() -- Is the concept of FinishOutputs() applicable to Script Component Destinations? Asked another way, is FinishOutputs() executed at the end of the data stream regardless of whether there are "real" outputs for the component? I can create a "Dummy" output to create FinishOutputs() but is this ok?
4) Script Component -- It appears that the Script Component Source, Transformation or Destination are really defined based on the columns defined in "Inputs and Outputs". Can you convert an Source script component to a transformation script component by simply adding an Output?
Sorry for these basic questions but I am not getting it completely. As you can tell...
We are post-deployment with a serious reporting issue that's causing us to rethink our reporting solution. We're considering moving from what we have to SQL Server Reporting Services (client side).
I have spent the past couple of days getting up to speed on this feature and seeing if we can easily migrate it into our existing application. However, I've hit a couple of stumbling blocks and was hoping perhaps someone here could either tell me the solution or point me in the right direction.
I'm not having any problems creating basic reports (e.g. flat data).
However, I am having problems creating reports where there are related tables in a dataset.
The way it works with our existing solution is that I get a dataset (which contains several data tables) and point it to the report's datasource. That report expects those tables and I have defined table-relationships in the report which process and display the information correctly.
I'm not having as much luck with RDLC.
I can go into futher detail about how I'm creating the report, but let me just ask these general questions first: 1. Can I set a dataset containing multiple datatables equal to a property on an RDLC report and that RDLC report know how to treat and display the data? 2. Is there a better/smarter than this to get a field selection from my datasource (remember, this information is coming from a stored procedure so connecting directly to the database is not an option): a. In code, populate dataset b. In code, write dataset schema to xml (e.g. an xsd file) c. In Visual Studio, add the XSD file to project d. Use fields from XSD file to drag and drop fields on report
A fancy example would be nice too. I've googled like crazy the past couple of days and downloaded as many samples as I can find (including the ones on ftponline.com, gotreportviewer.com, "Tudor's WebLog", and several others). However, I have yet to find one that uses grouping and related datatables.
Thank you so much (if, for nothing else, reading this post )
Hi there I sorry if I have placed this query in the wrong place. I'm getting to grips with ASP.net 2, slowly but surely! When i try to access my site which uses a Sql Server 2005 express DB i am receiving the following error:
Server Error in '/jarebu/site1' Application.

The database is definitly in the folder that the error message relates to. What I'm finding confusing is that the connection string seems to be finding "aranga"s database. Is it something daft?
1. Is it legal and OK to use a MSDN SQL copy on a production environment or is it strickly for test environments ??
2. If I own a legal copy of SQL 7 with 5 cals, can I legally use SQL MSDE and have more than 5 people access my SQL server or am I also limited to 5 users as my original ??
Hopefully this is the right place to post this, I am trying to learn ADO.Net programming using VWD Express with SQL Express... I tried to do the walk-through tutorial on ADO.Net through the asp.net tutorial. The walk-through asked you to download and install a script (check) then it said to open a command window with sql server running (check) and then to copy all of this special script code into to bind the database to the web page (not check). Everything pretty much went down hill after that part. I couldn't get the Update/Cancel/Delete buttons. After that dissapointing attempt at learning I decided to just try and make my own database. All was going pretty well until I try to add the UPDATE/DELETE fields after adding the WHERE clause. No go. So, I don't know if I'm just totally flubbing this up or if this is a common problem. Do I need the two or three pages of custom script like the Microsoft example to make a database work?
1 Hi, I'm a complete newbie at this, and need some help I want to import a text file into a DB. I know how to set it up in the DTS, however when I check the DB each line from the text file is in a seperate row. What have I missed? I want the file just in one row, like its a memo.
2 What do I use to connect to a SQL DB on the web so i can see the DB and all the tables
3 Also if I want to add data to a DB is that done on the server, or do I change my copy of the DB and re-upload
I've imported an access .mbd table into SQL 7.0, and need to know the best way to overwrite my SQL 7.0 table with the new Updated information that is contained in the access table. I've read a little bit about update tables, but is there an easy way to overwrite an entire table without having to specify each row and column?
Ok, not sure if this is where i should post this, but here goes.
I am trying to setup a database to handle RMA stuff at work. I need to be able to access the DB from numerous systems at once. Now i know NOTHING about SQL or any other DB for the most part. Messed around with Access some, but nothing major.
Is there anyone that could help me, explain how, or at least point me in the right direction?
I have MS SQL server 2000. Any help, ideas, or suggestions would be great!!
Hey! I',m totally new to Ms SQL Server. I'm currently trying to import a database from LINUX using SQL+ (Oracle) to MS SQL Server. Any suggestions on how this could be achieved would be most helpful
I need to know how to write a sql statement for VB to Microsoft Access for the following criteria.
TblEmployees only Field to be concerned with is EmployeeID -Its PK TblEmpAttendane has these fields: EntryID - Pk EmployeeID - Fk Date- A text form date validated through vb to avoid hassle Value-A single digit value that can be alpha OR numeric
To get the Date range for the current month I use variables to store the First and last day of the month(in a CUSTOM calendar control).
I have been trying to use this Sql statement(that wont work): SqlString = "SELECT * FROM TblEmpAttendance WHERE Date BETWEEN '" & FirstDay & "' AND '" & LastDay & "'"
I need to: 1.)using the current EmployeeID (from TblEmployees) 2.) find the same EmployeeID in TblEmpAttendance 3.)Get the date range for the current month and year(valid days currnt mo.) -these date are supplied by the variables "FirstDay" AND "LastDay" as seen in above SqlString
4.) Find the Values associated with the dates and EmployeeID
I have a table with 10 records: 10, 9, 8, 7 ... and so on. I want to SELECT the top 3 records starting with the second record on the list (which in this case is 9.) So the result should be 9, 8, and 7. What would be the correct SQL statement for this?
I tried "SELECT TOP 3 * FROM tableXXX WHERE (FieldID<>(SELECT TOP 1 * FROM tableXXX ORDER BY FieldID DESC) ORDER BY FieldID DESC" but sure as heck it didn't work. Can anyone help?
just for understanding a simple iif statement: I like to set a numeric value to 0, if it is smaller than 0. This expression shall be valid over all dimensions for a specific measure
like Iif([Measures].[Provision Ankauf]<0,0,[Measures].[Provision Ankauf] )
it's not working, Pivottable returns ##VALUE everywhere
I have two problems. I am currently using SQL Server express and SQL Server Management Studio Express locally. i have a DotNetNuke website running on the web with IHostASP.Net
Story:
I noticed that my SQL Server 2005 database with IHostASP.net was 350MB. It was only 22 2 months ago and I have had about 100 users sign up. I then connected to my live database via SQL Server Management Studio Express and shrunk the database. No errors and the database was reduced to 24MB - Great I thought!
I went and checked the website and all was great for about an hour then the site went down with the following error:
Error The transaction log for database 'classcampers' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases
Anyone know what to do.
Anyway, I have downloaded a .bak of my database as supplied by my host. However I cant figure out to restore this file back to my live database. What are the steps involved?
Do I create a new local database from the .bak and then somhow restore this back to my live one, or do i apply this .bak file strainght to my live database using SQLMSE. Any tutorials becuase I have been trying to apply this restore all day
Thansk for any advice in advance cheers Albertramsbottom:eek:
Hi, which is current running mostly used version of sql server and what was the previous version? how can we track down a query bad performance in sql server(like explain plan,stats..etc..in oracle)
Ive been learning SQL slowly and I need help for a projet I am doing.
I currently would like to compare identical files in a 2 seperate folder. Not only would I like to compare if the files are the same name, but when they are I would like to compare the file contents.
SO basically this is what I need to do: -Compare file names in folder A with files in folder B -If a match is found, compare file contents -If file contents are same, do nothing. If file contents are different, move file to folder C.
I finally decided to do our ASP application using VB, .NET and MSSQL.
My questions are simple, but I cannot find all the answers, so anything you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
Please explain how licenses (CALS) work with regard to Windows Server and MSSQL. For example, suppose we have 200 clients all logged into our application, but only say 40 are currently active (meaning they are adding data, running reports, etc....), but they are not all clicking the "DO" button at the same time. So how many Windows server and/or MSSQL seats, licenses, CALS, cpu's etc.... (whatever they are called) will I need?
How many users do you think a "well designed" ASP application built using AJAX, ActiveX, VB, .NET and MSSQL can a single cpu reasonably support? This application will serve east coast to west coast with heavy traffic from say 7am to 9am and 2pm to 4pm in each time zone. At what point (or what should I look for) to say, you need more memory, more processors, more servers, etc......????
How does one protect (or build in) a method to deal with index corruptions, etc???? Does that occur in MSSQL? If so, generally, what are causes and fixes?
The application will serve many chapters. Many chapters will be solo (by themselves), but we also expect district wide, where multiple chapters (25 to 75) in one district will use the application. We can expect, during time frames mentioned above, that each chapter will have 200 to 400 transactions per am time and same per pm time.
has anyone had great success with IronSpeed?
Lastly, can anyone suggest some good windows web hosting companies?
