i am using Sql Server 2005 SP2, I am trying to configure Mirroring. The issue is ,After configuring mirroring ,Whem i am starting START MIRRORING button .I am getting the error
Database mirroring is disabled by default. Database mirroring is currently provided for evaluation purposes only and is not to be used in production environments. To enable database mirroring for evaluation purposes, use trace flag 1400 during startup. For more information about trace flags and startup options, see SQL Server Books Online. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 1498)
I used BDCC TRACEON (1400) and I altered the Startup parameter in configuration manager of SQL SERVER ;-T1400
But still I am getting the above error which is indicated in red
Hi, I'm trying to use trace flag 1204 to get some detailed deadlock information In EM, I add startup parameter -T1204, and then I stop and start the server. I run two jobs that I have setup to deadlock, and they do. But no information about the deadlock is in my sql error log? anyone know what I am doing wrong? thanks.
In order to use Microsoft Dynamics NAV with the SQL Server 2005, I need to set Trace Flag 4616, and I know it's a setting somwhere, where I can add this flag no. -but I can't remember where? Please help?
I know that several hotfixes need you to turn on trace flag 4199 to activate them. But after reading an article on that trace flag, and the way it was worded, I couldn't tell if you still needed to use the trace flag, once that hotfix was incorporated into a service pack.
Using SQL Server 2000 std. edition, I was bitten by the bug described in KBs 818671 and 289149. Query optimizer using Hash Match Team operators would sometimes fail. I added -T8679 at SQL Server startup.
Now that I'm upgrading to SQL Server 2005, is this trace flag still required?
I see that "this was fixed in SQL 2000, SP1." However, I would like a more precise confirmation that this flag is no longer needed in SQL 2005. Sometimes, no news is not necessarily good news.
The error is intermittent, and at least partially dependent on data conditions not available to me for exhaustive regression testing (or else of course I would do that).
After carefully analyzing the situation for almost a month, I pulled the trigger and made an exception at work; we did enable trace flag 2371. We have some tables with billion of rows and outdated statistics causing horrible plans. Tried several methods to update those, but did not solve the problem or was too CPU intensive, causing other issues.
Anyway, one of the side effects I am seeing so far is average vCPU went down by almost 40%. Nothing out of usual (besides the flag) has been enabled or was executed. So my assumption is, CPU hungry plans are now gone or reduced.
I am upgrading my application's SQL Server from 2008 R2 to 2012.
As discussed in the below URL I am able to see the Identity jump after I upgrade and the server is restarted.
Now since I cannot afford this and at this moment I do not have the time to create a sequence with NOCACHE and test it again I have to go ahead and add trace flag 272 in the start up parameter as this is the only solution which I can implement and even rollback without much hassles.

What I got to know, this flag will disable the new feature of IDENTITY property that has been implemented as part of SQL Server 2012 and will make it work like it was doing in SQL Server 2008 R2.
But I want to know implementing this flag would impact any other feature or performance (except the performance of IDENTITY) of SQL Server.
Here's my predicament. I changed the filter on an article within a subscription, but not in a meaningful way. I just added "database.dbo." before a column name, but now my subscription is flagged for reinitialization, and won't replicate any transactions unless I start over with a new snapshot. I don't want that to happen. How can I reset the article properties somewhere to get it back the way it was and continue replicating transactions.
(I needed to add "database.dbo" so that another job that looks at the filter info would point to the correct database. Next time maybe I'll just modify the table that stores the filter info)
The reason I don't want to snapshot from the beginning is that I have procedures on the subscribing server that fire triggers from the transactions, so all the jobs "downstream" would get all out of sync.
database : MS SQL server ver 6.50.201 problem: server startup / server time out details SQL server shows usage of 100 % CPU utilization, if started automatically / manually. and does not proceed / hangs up(server time out), but win nt operates extremely slow.
The background of the situation in brief is as stated below. The errorlog was found to have the messages warning : OPEN OBJECTS parameter may be too low. Attempt was made to free up descriptors in localdes() Run sp_configure to increase parameter value.
Error : 644, severity : 21, state; state 1 the non clustered leaf row entry for page 2 row 1 was not found in index page 40 indexid 2 database 'tempdb'
Error : 2620 severity 21 state 3 the offset of the row number at offset 32 does not match the entry in the offset table of the follwoing page : page pointer = 0x1395800, page no= 40, status = 0x2, objectid = 1, indexid = 2
Action taken I used the sp_option to increase the open objects from default 500 to 1000, and the LE threshold maximum value to 400 from the default 200. after which I used reconfigure go and restarted the computer to take the effect. The following did work fine and server was working ok. But then from yesterday I am having the problem that the MS SQL sever is utilizing the cpu to 98 - 99 % and I am not able to connect to the server. I tried to start the server with the minimal configuration by specifying the -f option in the service manager start up options, it showed the following message 00/12/07 10:40:49.73 ods Unable to connect. The maximum number of '5' configured user connections are already connected. System Administrator can configure to a higher value with sp_configure. 00/12/07 10:40:50.02 ods Unable to connect. The maximum number of '5' configured user connections are already connected. System Administrator can configure to a higher value with sp_configure.
afterwhich I tried with the option of starting the sql server with the option -c -f which in the event detail of the win nt shows "mesg 18109: Recovery dbid 6 ckpt(55813,8) oldest tras= (55813,0)"
The open procedure for service "MSSQLServer" in DLL "SQLCTR60.DLL" has taken longer than the established wait time to complete. The wait time in milliseconds is shown in the data. DB-LIBRARY error - SQL Server connection timed out.
The dbid is / was 6 for both the instances, the database which is having this dbid is database name "AM" and is having above 1300 tables (approx) what could be the problem and solution for it? kindly help me out of this situation.
If any more information is needed please contact me on devendrakulkarni@yahoo.com / devendra@me.iitb.ernet.in
Hello, I tried this and it doesnt work, I just started up the service with -T flag on default instance but I havent been able to start it with -T flag 1400 on named instances.
How can I Know that the directory MSSQL.4 is the MIRROR instance??

I tried LUCHOMIRROR, MSSQLSERVER$MIRROR
and It doesnt work
Thanks
Another question I have, in the documentation it says that mirroring is only for evaluation purposes and not for production environments, what does it suppose to mean? MSFT didnt test the mirroring feature enough? If its not suppoerted why its included..?
Microsoft support policies do not apply to the database mirroring feature in SQL Server 2005. Database mirroring is currently disabled by default, but may be enabled for evaluation purposes only by using trace flag 1400 as a startup parameter. (For more information about trace flags, see Trace Flags (Transact-SQL).) Database mirroring should not be used in production environments, and Microsoft support services will not support databases or applications that use database mirroring. Database mirroring documentation is included in SQL Server 2005 for evaluation purposes only, and the Documentation Policy for SQL Server 2005 Support and Upgrade does not apply to the database mirroring documentation.
we can easily load a file into db tables. However, my main concern here is the number of columns in the file. A text file TEXT_1400.txt has 1400 columns. I am unable to load data to my db table using BCP or BULK INSERT commands, as maximum of 1024 columns are allowed per table in SQL Server 2008.Â
We can still go ahead and create ‘Wide Table’ (a special table that holds up to 30,000 columns. The maximum size of a wide table row is 8,019 bytes.). But when operating on wide table, BCP/BULK INSERT commands still fail. After few hours of scratching my head over BCP and BULK INSERT, I observed that while inserting BCP/BULK INSERT commands are unable to identify SPARSE columns and skip these columns, which disturbs column mapping and results in data conversion and trancation errors.  Is there any proper way to load this kind of files into the db table?Â
I have a perl script (uses sql query) that will run if there is anyupdate in the row. Currently, I am a trigger that sets the DateModifiedfield with getdate() Then my perl script looks for certain range ofmodified dates and runs the necessary query.I am trying to come up with a different mechanism where I don't have touse the date field. I am looking into flag bits. But not sure howto use it.Should I create a trigger that will set the flag bit after any update?This way the script will just look for the updated records, regardlessof what time it was updated. Maybe I am misunderstanding flag bits, thenafter another subsequent update how would the perl/sql script know whichrecords were updated? I hope this make sense.thanks.--s
I'm working on a program and I want it to check to see if the database it is pointed to has had a backup done against the database in the last 10 days. I will then throw a message box indicating that the database has not been backed up and that they should consider doing so.
Is there any attibute that I can check to see when the last time the database was backed up?
I am trying to build a decision tree algorithm with multiple regressors. I am having trouble changing the properties for the input variables to regressors (the only multiple flag choice is "not null"). I created a mining model using the DMX query thinking I could change the code to include multiple regressors, however I get a syntax error when trying to execute the model. Also, I am wondering if you can view the dmx code for a model built using the mining wizard.
If you have a table with columns like Category int, Cost money, EffectiveDate DateTime, SpecialFlag (char Y or N) how would you write a query to get for each category, get the most recent, with a specialFlag of Y if a Y record exists and if not, grab the N record?
I have tried using the exists clause for the flag, but as soon as I mix in the group by to get the latest effectivedate, the max is evaluated first and I am not guaranteed to use the Y records if they exist.
To illustrate: A 1, $10, 1/1/2007 Y B 1, $12, 1/1/2007 N C 2, $5, 6/7/2007 N D 2, $4, 1/1/2007 N E 3, $1, 1/1/2007 Y F 3, $2, 6/7/2007 Y G 3, $3, 2/1/2008 N
I want records A because it is flagged Y, C because it is the most recent and there is no Y record and F because it is flagged and most recent.
I am using this select statement to radomly display a recordSelectCommand="SELECT TOP 1 * FROM [TBL_Example] ORDER BY NEWID()I need to, however, flag this record, to determine if it has already been previously randomly selected, and won't take part in future random selections.I will need to add a where clause to the above, but what I am unsure of is what I should do for the insert statement. I guess I could figure this out on my own as well if I could determine a means to prgramatically store my PK from the above record in session.Any ideas?
I have a table where when an employee works LEAVE1 and LEAVE2 paycodes on the same day then in the new column called 'FLAG' we need to put a 1 for LEAVE1 and a 2 for LEAVE2, when these paycodes are not there on the same day then flag will be NULL as for other paycodes.
Tried using the CASE statements but it always puts a 1 or 2 for the respective paycodes regardless of the fact whether they were together on the same day or not.

I created a package wide OnError event handler with the following script:
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Public Class ScriptMain
' The execution engine calls this method when the task executes.
' To access the object model, use the Dts object. Connections, variables, events,
' and logging features are available as static members of the Dts class.
' Before returning from this method, set the value of Dts.TaskResult to indicate success or failure.
'
' To open Code and Text Editor Help, press F1.
' To open Object Browser, press Ctrl+Alt+J.
Public Sub Main()
'
Dts.Variables("FailureFlag").Value = True
'
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Sub
End Class
I ran the package with an error and set a break on error condition. When I looked at the value of "FailureFlag" it was False. Any ideas why it is not being set?
I have a post execute event that is supposed to rollback from a snapshot on failure and it is not doing so on failure so I'm trying to figure out what's wrong.
Knifflige Frage zu Datenbanken:Es gibt Tabellen, die mehr als ein PK-Feld haben; also z.B.MAID und GMID.Soweit ok.Nehmen wir an, aus dieser Tabelle sollen keine Datensätze physikalischgelöscht werden, sondern der Löschstatus durch ein Datenfeld GELOESCHTangegeben werden. Hat das Feld den Wert 0, dann ist der Datensatz nichtgelöscht; ansonsten steht der Zeitpunkt (Tag und Uhrzeit) der Löschung drin.Dann funktioniert der PK nicht mehr, denn es können ja durchaus mehrereDatensätze mit gleicher MAID und GMID vorhanden sein. Aufnehmen vonGELOESCHT in den PK geht theoretisch, ist aber gefährlich (daFließkommafeld, und wer weiß schon, ob 0 immer gleich 0 ist...).Hat jemand eine Idee?SWE@KP
I recieved an alert that says 'The Auto Shrink flag for database is not set according to best practice.' Can anyone tell me where I can find this flag and what it shoul dbe set to?
I was using Type 2 for one of our Fact table.... and need to put a flag to know which one is the Current record... I couldn't able to figure how to implement logic in the merge statement... This is an example Query ....I was using like this for my fact table...
Basically I need to track CustomerName and City... So I need a Currentflag (Y)Â for latest record....
MERGE INTO [dbo].[TargetCustomer] AS TRG USING [dbo].[MyCustomers] AS SRC ON TRG.[CustomerID] = SRC.[CustomerID] AND TRG.[CustomerName]=SRC.[CustomerName] AND TRG.[City]=SRC.[City]
Right now I have a cursor that makes me want to puke. This is the last cursor in my current project and I want to replace it with a much faster set based operation.
Here is the problem. I have a table with say 1-3 million records. There are fields that get loaded in with date information. These fields are varchar because the date information could very well be mangled data that needs to be reviewed by a user. What I need is to go through these varchar fields and flag the values that cannot convert to smalldatetime.
I have another table that houses the primary key and the field of the record that cannot convert.
Essentially, I have a series of filters that run and flag using set based stored procedures. If there is a record that gets through that contains a value that cannot be converted, I have a cursor that steps through the data and attempts to convert the value. If it is able to be converted, then it continues on until it finds the value that is holding up the conversion.
I guess if I can run a query that will return all records that can convert for the field (or can't convert) I'd be all set. Any help here is appreciated.
I need to display the 'Flag' column in the result set as mentioned above to identify the cycle values without breakdown indicator values. Here is the logic for this,
1. Need to set the flag 'Yes' for the cycle values PM04 to PM04 in the OrderType and if there is any breakdownindicator value 'X' then we can not consider that cycle for Flag.
