Script Which Checks When Running Out Of Auto-growth Extents?
Feb 24, 2015
I'm looking for hints/tips/url for a script which can be run a few times per day and either sends an email or alert for the following condition:
Script would function like:
[URL]
Databases - Dynamic Log File Growths Remaining Alarm
Dynamic Log File Growths Remaining alarm becomes active when a non fixed size log file in any database is in danger of running out of space to grow. It is raised when a log file is almost full and the file cannot automatically grow enough to relieve the problem.
We have our databases with Enable Autogrowth (in Megabytes), and then a Maximum File Size (Limited to a MB value).
Example: If one of the database logs (or possibly filegroup primary) picks up another extent and is about 5 extents (arbitrary value) away from running out of growth room, an alert would be sent to an email address/profile.
P.S. Yes, there are multiple databases on this one instance and the script should loop to run through all of them.

I'm currently using SQL Server 2005. Before I have set my database on unrestricted auto growth. But today, I have noticed that the Log file has been set to limit its growth to 2,097,152 MB. I have 160GB space for my log files, I just want to maximize the space for logs in my hard drive.
When I try to change the settings back to auto growth it still keeps on returning to its previous setting it is still set on 2,097,152 MB. What I did was :
Right Click on the Database - Properties - Files - Click the (...) - set the auto growth option to unrestricted - Click Ok
But when I checked log file, it is still set on 2,097,152MB.
Can some one help me change the settings of my Database.

I am trying to create sql script which will check all databases file size and then depend on the size set up auto growth different sizes with MB.
for example, sql server has 50 databases with different sizes, i would like to change auto growth all databases with different autogrowth size MB.
 File size      Data Autogrowth  Log AutogrowthÂ
 0MB - 250MB          25MB            25MB
250MB - Â Â 1GBÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 250MBÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 250MB

I have a SQL Server 2008 R2 database.
I have modified the autogrowth configuration several times. The strangest thing... they keep reverting back to the original configuration.

hi all!
i'm not sure that i understand how sql server stores data.
in documentation, i found that sql server stores data in pages.
every page have size of 8192 bytes (8060).
as i understand well, every table row is stored in one page. also, every table row can not be larger then one page. and that's where my confusion starts - because it sounds like we can not have data in table that is larger then 8060.
please, if you can you help me to understand this.
thank you in advance!

Hi all,
I have started to look at the way our production DB has been defined and set up, with the view to improving performance.
The DB is now 11gb, and the original size was set up as 3000mb, the rest has been take in 10% additional extents.
Now, back in my DB2 DBA days, this was a bad thing to have any data spread across extents as they may not be contiguous. I am assuming that is the same with SQL Server. Can someone confirm/deny this?
If this is the case, how can I get the DB back into one primary partition?
Thanks in advance.

When running the DBCC newalloc command I get some errors like the following:
"extent 51400 is in the wrong segment"
"chain processed with bad segment for object 448004627"
I've checked the system tables and system stored procedures and see no reference to page numbers being mapped to segments or identifying which extents are associated to which tables. I'm trying to determine which pages are associated with these extents so that I can print them to view the content. Any ideas how to determine the page numbers associated with extents and which extents are associated with each table?

I am reading the official documentation on pages and extents. I've also read an article on the official SQL Server Blog (sadly, I can't link as a new member). These articles do a good job explaining what an extent is.Why use extents at all?I can't find a good example anywhere of how grouping pages into extents make SQL Server work more efficiently. Any good example of what SQL Server would be missing if it didn't have extents at all, and how extents fix this?

Suppose you have two (or more) tables with foreign key constraints. Myquestion is thus:Is it better to check if the fk exists before you try to perform theinsert or let SQL do it for you?On one hand, if you check yourself and the key does not exist you cangracefully handle it (maybe exit out of method with error). If you letSQL do it, the server will throw an error which cannot be suppressed.On the performance side, you doing the check will incur a slight (VERYslight) hit since SQL will ALSO check anyways.

Since upgrading from SQL Server Management Studio 2008 R2, I've noticed that it no longer autosaves queries that have not been manually saved first. If a file has been manually saved the autorecover files end up in the following directory:
%appdata%MicrosoftSQL Server Management Studio11.0AutoRecoverDatSolution1
However, I have ended up in the situation where I have unsaved queries when my computer has crashed and have not been able to recover them.
I have also found references to .sql files stored in temp files in the following directory, but the files here seem to be very haphazardly caught:
%userprofile%AppDataLocalTemp

I'm starting to collect and develop some scripts that will tell me the health and welfare of my MSSQL 2k server. I have a few for blocks, db size, who is on and what they are currently running.
I was wondering if you guys could share some of the scripts you guys use to watch the health of your servers.

On weekends I have Integrity Checks scheduled to run. Many of these fail for individual databases because users do not log off and the databases cannot be switched to single user mode.
I have checked Books-on-line and have not yet stumbled onto a TSQL command that breaks the connections.
Is there a TSQL command to do this? If not, how can these connections be broken?

Hi experts,
What is the difference between, Creating rules and creating checks on a field?
They both look the same.

I have a few databases on this Windows 2000 Server running
SQL 2000 which were detached from SQL 7.0 and attached to
SQL 2000.
The problem is the Maintenance Plans (Integrity Checks
keep failing on SQL 2000. I 'DTS'ed a SQL 7.0 database to
this SQL 2000 server and ran the Maintenance Plans on that
database. Works fine only for the DTS'ed database.
What am I missing ???
:confused:

OCT between 300 & 400 #30 (30 customers gave checks total worth $300-$400 within any 4 consecutive days period in the month of OCT )

What daily/weekly checks do you guys currently perform on your servers and databases?
I recently ran across with an article from SQLServerCentral that listed a couple of daily checks that I'm thinking about implementing on my environment, and some of them are:
DB Missing Recent Backup - Report
DB Missing Recent Log Backup - Report
Drives Low on Disk Space - Report
Error Log Messages Report - Report
Instance Recently Restarted - Report
Job Failures - Report
Large Databases Log File - Report
I already have in place:
Verify is SQL Agent Service is running
Check Disk Space Available
Since I'm going to spend some time on this, I was wondering if there's anything else that you guys have in place or any other 'nice to have' that you guys also might have, so I don't leave anything behind...
Thanks!

I have two connections in a package pointing to two different databases
on the same server. I have to insert records from 'DB1' table 'Gender1'
to 'DB2' table 'Gender2'. Before I do that though, I have to make sure
the minimum value (of all the Gender Keys that are going to be
inserted) of 'DB1' 'GenderKey' (which is an identity field) is greater than the
maximum value of DB2-GenderKey (which is a primary key but not an
identity field). How can I do this simple check? I have to do this process for many different tables ....... Gender table is just an example. If someone can give an detailed explanation on which tasks to use and how to use them (as I am relatively new to SSIS) that'd be great.

Hi all,
I'm trying to use a custom check constraint to insert into a table. I have created a function that checks an item against a authorization date as well and I've coupled this into the constraint. So for example, my function starts:
Code Snippet
ALTER FUNCTION {function1} (@ItemID INT, @AuthDate DATETIME)
RETURNS INT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Ret INT
SET @Ret = 0
IF NOT EXISTS(SELECT top 1 ItemID FROM {table1}
Where b1.ItemID = @ItemID
AND @AuthDate <= ISNULL(b1.expirydate, @AuthDate))
BEGIN
SET @Ret = 1
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @Ret = 0
END
RETURN(@Ret)
END
GO
Now i couple that into a check constraint for the same table:
Code Snippet
ALTER TABLE {table1} ADD CONSTRAINT {contraint_name} CHECK (([function1]([ItemID], [AuthorizedDate])=(1)))
GO
Now, when i insert a record into this table with an Authorized Date greater than the ItemDate it should set the @ret value to 1. This is being passed back to the constraint should set 1=1 which is true and therefore should allow an insert, however, i cannot do this. I think this is because it inserts the record and THEN does the check which makes it fail. Is there anyway to do this check before the INSERT without having to use a trigger? I dont want to use a trigger because when we're doing an insert for bulk rows, performance decreases correct?

My SQLMaint integrity checks consistently fail when the "Repair any minor problems" option is checked. The reported reason is that the database must be in single user mode. This doesn't seem practical. Am I missing an option somewhere?

Hello ,
I have got a script which checks for the databases that are offline. and mails the dba when any of the database is offline.
When I schedule the job , for every hour , it gives me an blank mail only with the subject ' status of database on testsql' even though no databases are offline.
So how can I change the script , so that it mails the dba only when a database is offline even though its scheduled every hour or half an hour.
The script is:
Set NoCount on
DECLARE @dbname VARCHAR(100)
deCLARE @Status varchar(100)
Declare @Message VARCHAR(8000)
DECLARE @date varchar(100)
set @date = convert(varchar(100), getdate(),109)
set @Message = ''DECLARE dbname_cursor
CURSOR FOR SELECT [name], CONVERT(varchar(30),DATABASEPROPERTYEX(name,'Statu s'))
as [Status] FROM master..sysdatabases WHERE CONVERT(varchar(30),DATABASEPROPERTYEX(name,'Statu s')) = 'OFFLINE'
order by name
OPEN dbname_cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM dbname_cursor INTO @dbname, @Status
WHILE
@@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN select @message = @message + @@Servername + '-' + @dbname + ' - ' + @Status + Char(13)+ ‘- ‘ + @date
FETCH NEXT FROM dbname_cursor INTO @dbname, @Status
END
CLOSE dbname_cursor
DEALLOCATE dbname_cursor
print @message
EXEC master.dbo.xp_smtp_sendmail
@FROM = N'testsql2000@is.depaul.edu',
@TO = N'dvaddi@depaul.edu',
@server = N'smtp.depaul.edu',
@subject = N'Status of the Database on Testsqlserver!',
@type = N'text/html',
@message = @message
Thanks

I want to check to see if a database exists in SQL Server 2005 Express... using VB.NET (or C#)... Can not use the SQLConnection Object... because I get a Failed Login Attempt... regardless if the DB does not exist or if it is because the User Login is incorrect
Is there some way to check to see if the Database exists (is attached) to the SQL Server 2005 Express Engine?

The integrity checks job on the user databases failed over the weekend and here is the error I got from the report:
Database DB_Stores: Check Data and Index Linkage...
[Microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQLState: 42000)] Error 7919:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Repair statement not processed.
Database needs to be in single user mode.
The following errors were found:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Repair statement not processed.
Database needs to be in single user mode.
** Execution Time: 0 hrs, 0 mins, 1 secs **
[Microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQLState: 42000)] Error 5070: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]
Database state cannot be changed while other users are using the database 'DB1'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]ALTER DATABASE statement failed.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]sp_dboption command failed.
Googled the issue and found some articles on this issue, but wanted to also run it by you.
I looked at the maint plan properties and under the integrity tab of the maint plan attempt to repair any problems is checked, this is what I think:
Since attempt to repair is checked, the db was trying to repair the issue and since users were logged into the system
it could'nt repair the issue as the system needs to be in single user mode. I think if we uncheck the attempt to repair
option, then the job would run fine.
But is this the best way to do? how about the errors it was trying to repair? Do we have to fix the error's it was trying to
fix later by changing the db to single user mode.
PLease let me know your ideas, thanks!!

Hi,
Does TSQL provide methods to check if a file exists?
For example, a TSQL script will read data in a .dbf file into SQL Server. It will check if the file exists before read. How to do this check?

I have a VM set up for offloading DBCC checks. Specs are below. I've read through this, but I'm not seeing the performance gains by enabling the trace flags and using the physical only switch.
Is the whole drawback that I'm on SATA storage? Is there a VM configuration with the CPU I can/should change? I've been playing with MAXDOP trying to see if I can get any benefits but I'm not seeing a much.
