SQL Server - Green Circle With White Arrow Question

Dec 7, 2007

I know that this may be a stupid question but I have yet to find the exact answer. Within the SSMS the servers are displayed in the registered servers. I register the server and then connect successfully. What I don't understand is although the server is running or the sql server agent is running the green dot with the white arrow is completely white. I can click on the server and look at the databases so I know that the server is running. This happens on remote servers and servers here at our location. Does anyone know why the white dot is not green with a white arrow? I'm just curious to know why this is like that. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Thanks.

Best Practices White Paper On Pre-Installation Server Setup

Oct 17, 2007

Evening,

I am very well versed in the proper way to set up a SQL Server server prior to installation.

In this I mean, the proper process in placing your MDF, LDF and NDF(s) on seperate spindles/discs and also to place TempDB on its own spindle/disc and such.

There are numerous other points to cover in setting up the server based on memory, security, processor and such but I am sure you understand.

What I am looking for is the link(s) to the whitepapers discussing these Best Practices methodologies for pre-installation setup.

I looked on the Best Practices page but did not seem to find a doc that contains all the Best Practices that should be followed, if possible of course, in setting up a server prior to the SQL Server 2005 installation process.

Can anyone please point me to a link(s)/doc(s) that describe what I am looking for.

I need to pass this information down to other members of my team.

Thanks and have a great day!

SQL Server 2008 :: White Spaces Not Getting Ignored For Plan Guide Matching?

May 1, 2015

In sp_create_plan_guide documentation, it's written:

When SQL Server matches the value of statement_text to batch_text and @parameter_name data_type [,...n ], or if @type = 'OBJECT', to the text of the corresponding query inside object_name, the following string elements are not considered:

White space characters (tabs, spaces, carriage returns, or line feeds) inside the string.
Comments (-- or /* */).
Trailing semicolons

On SQL Server 2008 SP3, I created a plan guide for a query. Now, if I execute the query exactly how it was defined in the plan guide, SQL Server match it and use the plan guide to optimize the query.

However, if I add just a space between a column name and an operator in the WHERE clause, the plan guide is ignored. How come it doesn't ignore the extra space, like mentioned in the documentation?

Keyboard Not Working (backspace And Arrow Keys) When Viewing 2000 DTS Packages From 2005 (backward Compatibility)

May 4, 2006

I know my problem is not directly associated w/ SSIS, so please forgive the post here. I figured this would be the "most" appropriate place to post this challenge.

We're attempting to edit a 2000 DTS package in Design mode from within the 2005 SQL Management Studio. To do this we downloaded/installed the following packages from the MS download site:

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Backward Compatibility Components

We're able to open the package in design mode from the Management Studio (Server > Management > Legacy > Data Transformation Services > DTS Package Name). But, when the DTS designer is open, the backspace and arrow keys won't respond in the Management Studio. They begin responding when we close the DTS designer. There are no error messages when we close the DTS designer.

Does anyone know of a fix or a workaround? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Mike

Green Bar Matrix =ReportItems!Color.Value Ignored

Aug 24, 2007



I followed the instructions and the textbox named Color did indeed display alternate colors on the odd rows.
However, when I tried to propogate the color to the whole row using the expression =ReportItems!color.Value for the value of the backgroundcolor property, it was ignored.

So I tried some custom code:
Public Function GetColor()
Dim retValue as String
retValue = Me.ReportItems!Color.Value
return retValue
End Function

The syntax parser didn't like ReportItems either.
I first tried it without the Me object and I got a message about requiring an object so I tried Me.

Has anyone got another idea?

Thanks,
IanO

Super Green Newbie Dba - Tran Log Problem... Help, Please?

Oct 9, 2004

Well, I can't backup up my tran log - too big. I knew enough to know you have to back it up, didn't know enough to know that tran log backup is not included in "Full backup". Contractor installation set Growth to "un-restricted". Me, too swamped to delve deeply in time to learn this is a recipe for disaster, and then it was too late - System down because tran log filled up the disk...

(Ironically, this happened the morning of the first day of some training they sent me to - Microsoft's Programming a Microsoft SQL 2000 Database...)

So, some details... The drives on the system :
___ c: size 12G, free 7G
___ d: size 44.9G, free 10M
___ e: size 44.9G, free 13G

Tran log info :
___ filename .... d:Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQLdatahorizon_Log.LDF
___ name ........ horizon_Log
___ size ........ 5606392
___ maxsize ..... -1
___ growth ...... 10
___ status ...... 1081410

___ filename ...E:Horizon_Log2Horizon_Log2_Temp
___ name ........ horizon_1_Log
___ size ........ 167168
___ maxsize ..... 640000
___ growth ...... 640
___ status ...... 32834

(there are 2 because the other totally green newbie dba added 1 the day the system went down...)


I *thought* the addition of the 2nd tran log file meant the 1st file was no longer part of the picture, and that my available free disk space was sufficient to backup the 2nd tran log file.

Clearly I'm missing something - when I try to back up, I get this in SQL server error log :
___ Operating system error 112(There is not enough space on the disk.)


:confused:___ Does that mean it's trying to backup both the 1st & the 2nd tran logs?
:confused:___ Or is it only backing up the 2nd log, but trying to use D: (with only 10M)?
:confused:___ Or, is it using C: or E:, but tran log backups need some multiple of the size of the actual log, and there's not enough space even though there are multiple G?


I've been reading & googling. So far tried to truncate both files.
( dbcc shrinkfile('horizon_1_log',truncateonly) )
No luck, got these :
___ Cannot shrink log file 2 (horizon_Log) because all logical log files are in use.
___ Cannot shrink log file 3 (horizon_1_Log) because all logical log files are in use.

:confused:
:confused:___ How do I get them to be not "in use"?
:confused:___ Must the system be down for that? (certainly seems to...)


Also, checked out the EMPTYFILE option. Books Online says :
"Migrates all data from the specified file to other files in the same filegroup"

:confused: ___ Migrates to which "other files", exactly?
:confused: ___ Is this the right way to go?
:confused: ___ If so, how would I proceed after achieving a successul EMPTYFILE operation?


Also...
:confused: ___ In the database's Properties dialog, Transaction Log tab, there's a Delete button. Could that button be used to get me out of this difficulty?


Last, but not least... If I'm going about this altogether wrongly, can I get a pointer or two?

TIA for any and all feedback...

Light Green Exports To Excel As Grey

Jun 23, 2007

Hi All,

I am building reports with red, amber, green highlighting........I am using 'Tomato', PaleGoldenrod' and 'LightGreen'....but the lightgreen turns to grey when exported to excel...



The only green I have found so far that exports ok is YellowGreen but it looks terrible inside a browser....



Is there some way I can get something like LightGreen to export to excel ok? Is there something that I might be able to do or is this a limitation in the rendering to excel?



Thanks

Enterprise Manager - Green Light Status Not Showing Up.....

Aug 23, 1999

Has anyone had a problem with Enterprise Manager, running on NT4/SP4 desktop, not showing/reporting the status of a specified SQL Server (6.5). I have a list of 10 that have been working fine (i.e. green lights shows up, drill down and see SQL Executive Green light, etc.). I now have 1 that does not report the status. It was working fine, but the only change that I remember was to create a new Scheduling login, which I did, and then I re-registered it to use a non-sa login to see what the look/feel would be. It looked like from that point onward, is where I lost the status capability. I have re-registered it as SA, but it seems to be stuck and won't give me back the green light. Yes, the server is up and I can drill down, but I don't even see the SQL Executive service and green light. I'm sure there is some registry setting that needs to be kicked? Any Ideas?

Green Bar Matrix Display Difference? VS2005 Vs Web View

Sep 12, 2007

Hello:

I've created a simple greenbar matrix using the tips suggested by Chris Hays. In Visual Studio the row totals display with the correct alternating background color, but when viewing the report via the web, the report does not render any background color for the totals?

I've attached a rough example (I trimmed out a couple of colums, so don't try to add up the column values displayed with the total value). As you can see, the values for the Total column do not get shaded, even though in VS2005 it shows the Total column shading the rows correctly.

Reporting Services :: Make Bar Chart Color Red If Number Is Negative And Green If It Is Positive?

May 27, 2015

I have a 2012 report builder chart that has two series (one area chart and one bar chart) combined into one chart.  The problem I'm having is the bar chart has much smaller numbers than the area chart and the scaling is messed up.

Is there any way to put the bar chart on the right axis and keep the area chart on the left axis?  My goal is to increase the size of the bar chart in relation to the area chart.

Also, is there any way to make the bar chart color red if the number is negative and green if it is positive?

SQL White Space! HELP!

Oct 4, 2006

Ok, here is the problem.
Client created a database with Allocated Space of 5GB. THEY WILL ONLY EVER HOLD A MAXIMUM OF 1GB IN DATA!!! Don't ask.

In any case, they currently have a database filled with 600MB of Data and 4.4GB of White Space. From what I can see, the database is backing up that entire database nightly, based on 5GB of allocated space. It doesnt care that only 600MB is being used, it only knows that someone put aside 5GB and its gonna darn well back it up.

I need to get rid of that space. Their Backups are taking hours on end and Batch Files are timing out. Quite honestly, they dont need to back up 4.5GB of white space.

QUESTION:
How can I eliminate that white space? I have tried to run several SQL scripts to Truncate the DB and eliminate unused space, unfortunately it is not working.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Matt.

We Have A New White Paper On Connectivity!

Jan 10, 2007

Dear Forum Members,

We've been working on a white paper targeting SSIS connectivity which we hope will help answer some of the key questions in the following areas :



What are the SSIS components and their support level for ADO.NET, ODBC, and OleDB?


How to deal with 64-bit connectors? what is supported, what is not?


Special sections on popular data sources such as SAP, Oracle, DB2, Flat File, XML.


A comprehensive list of data sources and available connectors from Microsoft and other 3rd parties.

You'll also find answers to why some of the things are the way they are today.

Note that this white paper is currently under official editing and publishing in Microsoft. It'll be a while before it goes public officially, but I wanted to share it with you, as the rich content it offers can't really wait. You'll find the paper in my blog, which is really a wiki site about SSIS connectivity fully open to public, so feel free to add/update content in there as you feel proper, and help the SSIS community with your wisdom!

A lot of feedback went into this white paper not only from Microsoft, but also from some of our partners and MVPs. I'd like to extend special thanks to Bob Beauschemin for authoring this challenging white paper.

Enjoy!

White Spaces In Data Fields

Jan 31, 2006

Hi,
Whenever I insert a record into my table it adds trailing white spaces up to the amount of char's that the field is set to allow.  Obviously I don't want it to do this.
Among other problems then when I get the data back out it has a ton of white spaces, which normally wouldn't be a problem.  i could just use the .Trim() function, but for some reason when I bind the data to a drop down list and use the .Trim() function it doesn't trim the white spaces.
Anyways any ideas on how to make it so the white spaces don't get put in in the first place??  Or any other thoughts on this??  Thanks!

Function Like Len() That Counts White Space

Aug 10, 2007

Good day to you, community friend!

Just a quick one - I swear I've seen a function before that was like Len() but it counted the white spaces too. I have a feeling it was something along the lines of "data_length" but I can't for the life of me find it!

Many thanks,
George

Unacceptible White Space On Report

Aug 2, 2007



I am hoping there is either a quick fix within SQL reporting services or a 3rd party tool for SQL reporting services that will fix my error. If not, we will be forced to go back to Crystal Reports.

I have a large report, that per each record prints between 3 and 5 pages of information. It is laid out like an MS Word document (as that is what is needed to send off to the client), so it is in standard letter style with the text growing down vertically.

I have about 10 large text (SQL Server Text field types) fields on this report. The report itself was built using the SQL Reporting Services table tool, so I could correclty group the information into the same record and also to keep the needed specific report formatting.

Everything looks GREAT, except for large white space in the report. The cause is that each row on the SQL Reporting Services table contains a field of data. Well, in some instances there is too much text to fit on the current page of the report (in some cases as much as 3/4 a page of paper), so instead of starting to print on the page and then continuing to print on to the next page, the data will skip the page and start at the top of the next page.

This will leave large white spaces in my report. In one instance I have a Text field that with the correct formatting is larger than a page. So the report prints on 1/4 of page 2, is blank for remander 3/4 of a page 2, and then starts printing the large text field on the following page (page 3). So 3/4 of a page in my report is left empty.

Is there a work around for this, or a 3rd party tool that can be purchased to allow for this? I have not found a setting or a way to keep the table rows together as there is in Crystal Reports.

Thank you for your help!

T.J.
