I have a client program that writes to sql server database 10 records per second . i want to compute the CPU usage and the memory usage for the whole program or CPU usage,memory usage for the insert statement in the program .
Can anybody help me with this?
Hello, When I am seeing SQL Server 2005 Management studio Server Dashboard> I am seeing my(USERS) databases and msdb database usage is very small % of in CPU Usage(%), Logical IO Performed (%) Usage pie chart.
90% of Total cpu usage is showing for Adhoc Queries. what excatly this means in Dashboard? if application uses more than it would have shown in Database level or not?
sicerely this dashboard is good, if any one is watching daily, please advice their experiences here.
Thanks in advance. Hail SQL Server!

I have the following to create a table in sql server......
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[myTable] (
Id VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
fldDate SMALLDATETIME,

How can I convert this to use GUIDs in SQL 7
Create Procedure sp_sfAddressNameAdd
@AddressName varchar(100)
As
DECLARE @AddressNameID int
INSERT INTO sfAddressName (AddressName)
VALUES (@AddressName)
SELECT @AddressNameID = @@IDENTITY
return @AddressNameID
AddressNameID is set to uniqueidentifier with newid() as default
Thank you,

Hi all and I appreciate any help
I recently been assigned to a project that has an ms-access front end and sql server 2000 sp4 as the database engine.
The database was replicated (merge replication) but for some reason they drop replication and when they tried to put it back on they got allot of problems and so they paused it.
My task now is to make it work again. After allot of reading I desided to clean the database and start from the beginning. Using some scripts and instructions on a copy of the database I cleaned all the tables related to merge replication but when I went back to ms-access to update a record I got an error
"invalid column name 'rowguid'" . I checked all my tables in my database but I find not such column as it was dropped using the scripts.
Any ideas that I can use?
Thanks allot,
George

I'm new to replication and database management so I will like some understanding and guiding as this is a new task for me.
I was given a copy of a database with merge replication on it and doing allot of reading and using some scripts I cleaned replication (or so Im thinking) and tryed to use it again on the ms-access front end. When I try to update some data I get "invalid column name 'rowguid'" , but no such column exist in my database as it was dropped.
Any help on this?
thanks George.
I'm trying to set up a merge publication in MSSQL 2005 SP1.
I have a database which I have successfully made into a merge publication. When I run the snapshot agent, several articles are processed successfully, then I encounter an error with the following: Invalid column name 'rowguid'
Note that none of the tables contain 'rowguid' columns before this process - I let MSSQL automatically create these as needed.
The replication monitor details the following error:
Error messages:

Hello,
I've a table with one column specified as rowguid.
An insert into this table is done in a stored procedure, which should return the new rowguid by an output parameter.
How can I obtain the autoassigned rowguid of the inserted record?
is there something like ident_current which is used for identity-columns?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
I am looking to preserve the ROWGUID column that is created automatically when a table is added to a publication as I have noticed that the column is removed and readded (with new values) each time the publication is deleted and recreated. We are planning on using the values in the rowguid column for a non-replication purpose, and don't wish the column to be removed or the values to be reset in the event the 'owning' publication is dropped for whatever reason. I've done some research and have identified the preserve_rowguidcol column of the sysmergearticles table as a candidate for achieving the desired goal. Before moving forward, I wanted to ask for input regarding this. Are there any best practices I've overlooked on this topic? Neither Google nor this forum's search results yield any real discussion on this topic.
Thanks!

Hi all,
After I setup the merge replication in SQL SERVER 7.0, there is a rowguid column (datatype uniqueidentifier) inserted into each table in the both the source and destination database.
I need to get rid of the rowguid column in all tables. I deleted the replication, but the column still existed.
Is there an easy way to get rid of all the rowguid column in the database? Thanks for your reponse in advanced.
providing a query for fetching the data for CPU Usage, Memory usage, blocking and all details ...
I want to create a job which will run on a Node every 15 min and store data in a table for each instance...
DMV is not giving more stuff and xtended events not sure if i can store that data into a table?
Hi there,
I have setup merge replication which successfully synchronizes with a group of desktop users using SQL Compact Edition.
However now I have setup Article Filters and when I attempt to regenerate the snapshot I get the following error:
Invalid column name 'rowguid'.
Failed to generate merge replication stored procedures for article 'AssignedCriteria'.
When I look at publication properties at the Articles page.. All my tables have the rowguid uniqueidentifier successfully added to tables and selected as a compulsory published column, apart from the table above "AssignedCriteria".. Even when I attempt to select this column in the article properties page and press ok, when I come back it is deselected again. ( The Rowguid column is however physically added to the table)
I have scripted the publication SQL and then totally reinstalled from scratch, including the database but for some reason it doesn't like this table. I remove the article filters, but still this "rowguid" is never "selected" in article properties.
We are using Uniqueidentifiers in other columns as well for historical reasons, but this doesn't appear to be a problem in other tables..
DDL For this problematic table is as follows
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AssignedCriteria](
[AssignedCriteria] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
[CriteriaName] [varchar](255) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
[TargetScore] [numeric](5, 0) NULL,
[HRPlan] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[ActualScore] [numeric](18, 0) NULL,
[Criteria] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[Employee] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[IsActive] [bit] NULL,
[addDate] [datetime] NULL,
[totalscore] [numeric](5, 0) NULL,
[isCalc] [bit] NULL,
[Weight] [decimal](18, 2) NULL,
[ProfileDetail] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[rowguid] [uniqueidentifier] ROWGUIDCOL NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [MSmerge_df_rowguid_7FF25DF903B6415FBFF24AC954BC88E4] DEFAULT (newsequentialid()),
CONSTRAINT [PK_AssignedCriteria] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[AssignedCriteria] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
Thanks.
What query should I run?
1. To determine whether a column is a rowguid or not using C# .NET 1.1
2. To add/modify column information and be able to set/change:
- Primary key
- Column Name
- Data Type
- Length
- Allow Null
- Default value
- Precision
- Scale
- Identity
- Identity Seed
- Identity Increment
- Row guid
Thanks a lot!
hi there,
i need to transfer the data off a query output to a txt file in the same order as it prints. i have tried using the command

exec bcp "SELECT au_fname, au_lname FROM pubs..authors ORDER BY au_lname" queryout Authors.txt -c -Sservername -Usa -Ppassword
this is exactly what i used replacing the appropriate parameters, but it gave me a "syntax error near queryout"
PLEASE advice what is wrong or sugest the best method to achieve the same.
Any help would be appretiated.

I need to provide some infomation on how much (trans/request)SQL7 can handle.
I checked the white papers and testimonials, but don't see any actual numbers.
We have a clustered SQL7 environment sitting on some Compaq 6400 using 4 cpu's. Our database size is only about 3.5 gig and we are using IIS 3. Does anyone know where to get this information?
Please advise
Thanks

Hi guys, I have a sell server its a new server 4 processors and 4 gigs of ram. SQL server is pinning the CPU's 100% I can’t figure out why, I'm at mdac 2.7 with the hotfix. I don’t know what else to look at.
Any ideas?
Hi .... I'd like to know if I can use BCP to transfer the whole database to a device or file and then back to the server(I mean,using only one server) with a new char set/sort order configuration,or I have to do it table by table??? How do I use BCP to perform this task?What commands and parameters should I use???
Thanks for your attention,

we have CPU Usage upto almost 100% i increased the tempdb, and master to almost double the size
then we increased the memory to high amount.
does anyone have suggestion pls help since it running too slow, since we did an upgrade
I have a SQL 2000 Server, dual processer with hyperthreading. 2Gb of Ram. The machine is only being used as a SQL Server
Normally the server runs at about 15-20% usage. I have now noticed a problem where the SQL server suddenly jumps to 100%, this can happen after a week or a couple of days. It requires a server reboot to fix the problem. Stopping the SQL server and restarting will not work.
I don't know if this is part of the problem, but I have noticed that after a day or so the processor usage climbs by about 10%, if I stop the SQL service and restart, the processor usage drop by the 10%.
Also I have set the memory usage to be 1.5Gb, but it takes a day or two for the SQL server to consume this amount of memory. Don't know if this has anything to do with it.
Anyone know why this is happening ?

I've got a copy of SQL2005 and IIS on the same machine. Sql Server seems to be eating a lot of RAM, eventually causing IIS to restart.
Anybody had any luck playing with max server memory ?
hi all,

HiI am having a real issue with CPU usage by SQL Server, and it is notrelated to a poor query.I have a clients database that I am currently investigating some issueswith. After I perform a standard task using the application, and theresults have been returned to the application the cpu usage remains at100%.Even once the application has been completely closed down the cpu usageremains at 100%. Nothing else is happening.I am at a complete loss as to how to proceed to with investigation ofthis issue (i have been looking at this for over a week using SQLServer tools and Performance Monitor, and eliminating various otherpossibilities)I downloaded Process Explorer, and looking at the threads forsqlservr.exe there is one in particular that is consuming all of thecpu time:MSVCRT.DLLI am running SQL Server 2000 SP4 on the following machine:Windows 2000 SP4Pentium 4 3Ghz (Note this is seen as 2 processors so the reported cpuusage is 50%)1Gb MemoryI also have about 20Gig of free disk space.One other thing, the page faults reported on the Performance tab ofProcess Explorer exceeds 3 million. This is after running theapplication for around 10 minutes.Please can anybody suggest anything at all that might help? I'm sorrythere is not too much information in here but I have not been able tofind out anything useful!Many Thanks in advance.Paul

Hi all,
I want to write a backup application for SQL server.I have read the VDI specifications. I want to know whether I can use the VDI just to freeze and thaw without taking the snaphot and the backup. Or is there any other way to do the same ?
Thanks in Advance.
