Hello! I am writing an app with C# that is using SQL Server 2005's RMO objects. I want to display a tree control with say a log history (last successful sync, dates, etc...). I know that the server stores this kind of info somewhere but I'm not sure how to access this via RMO.
Can anybody point me in the right direction? Thanks!
I have a VB.net app that access a SQL Express database. I have transactional repliaction set up on a SQL 2000 database (the publisher) and a pull subscription from the VB.net app. I use RMO in the VB app to connect to the publisher. My problem is I am getting some strange behaviour as follows
- if I run the app and invoke the pull subscription it works fine. If I then close my app and go back in, I can access my data without any problem
- If I run the app and try to access data in my SQL Express database it works fine. I can then close the app, reopen it and run the pull subscription it works fine
however.......
- if I run the app, invoke the pull subscription (which runs fine), and then try to access data in my local SQL Express database without firstly closing and reopening the app, I get a login error
- if I run the app, try to access data in my local SQL Express database (which works fine), and then try to run the pull subscription I get a "the process cannot acces the file as it is being used by another process" error. In this case I need to restart the SQL Express service to be able to run replication again.
I get exactly the same behaviour when I use the Windows Sync tool (with my app open at the same time) instead of my RMO code to replicate the data.
I am using standard ADO.Net 2 code to access my SQL Express data in the app and closing all connections etc
Is there any problem with implementating some kind of replication andbacking up transaction logs at the same time? SQL Server 2000 StandardEditionThe server is configured to back up log files regularly, with thepresenceof a(New) Disaster recovery server and with an inability forstandby(Standard Edition)I am planning to implement some kind ofreplication hopefully still backing up the transaction logs to enablea point in time recovery.Thanks in advance for your great ideasVincento
We have a SQL Server database that runs a website on our server, however the company that we are running the website for requested that they have a replicated local version at their business. Everything is working fine.
However they have requested that they have access to the replication logs. They want to have the details of the recent replication details so they can see if changes they have made on their side has been transferre across successfully they also want a table with all the details in of the changes that have ever happened. Can anyone suggest a good way of doing this?
I wanted to schedule the transaction replication. How do I do it? Currently I have set up a transaction replication which runs continuously and synchronizes the changes with immediate effect.
I need to configure a replication which will gather logs from the publication once in a day.
I have multiple questions and would appreciate any suggestions in resolving them. I'm a novice to these issues.
1) First of all, what is the exact command to setup the trunc. log on chkpt. option on for a transactional log of a SQL Server 2000 database? Is this option on by default? I have noticed for one of the databases I'm managing that the transaction log was over 12 GB, while the db was only 425 MB.
2) How's it possible to run a DBCC TRACEON to see the content of the transaction log to see if we are having any issues with any uncommitted transactions, i.e. updates, inserts, and/or deletes.
3) What are the commands to truncate inactive transactions and increasing the readbatchsize?
4) lastly, how do I validate transactional replication via checksum and find valid latency between a small number of changes that need to be committed between publisher and subscriber.
In my case I have to log the errors raised by any task in a package to either windows event log, text file or SQL server. Also I need to send an email notifications to a group of people telling them about the error.
Now can I use SSIS package logging for logging the errors into the required destinations. I mean right clicking on the package and selecting Logging, then adding the required log providers and enabling the events for logging into those. I think I have to upfront select the log providers to log the error, I will not have the liberty to log the error to the destination, the name of which is passed as a variable to the package. This is okay with me though.
Now what will a custom log provider help me to do in this case. Also can I somehow configure my package to call the send mail task everytime an error is raised.
Also, one more option can be developing a package that only does the error handling. It will take in the paramters or the error codes and descriptions, the destination to write to and a flag to send mail or not for that particular type of error.
the logs on our database keep locking up and return and file size of 0. Does any know of a way to dump the log file. I tried: Dump Transaction log to .... but it did not want to work any ideas.
I'm running a SQL Server 2005 Express installation. Now I notice that the SQL Server logs (under Management in Mgmt Studio Express) are empty - no logs are in there, neither under Current, nor under the "archived". Do I have to switch on logging explicitly?? (I'm logging on as "sa".)

I have August22 full backup and August22 and August23 transactions log backups . I want to get the August23 and August23 full backup. So I performed a restore backup with August22 full backup and all the August22 trn backups. Then I backed up giving it August23 name and repeated the process with the August23 trn backups. But, I get an error saying that the transactions haven't been rolled foward far enough. But, I am not missing any trns! I will really be grateful if anyone would help. thanks.
Im having issues truncating my transaction logs. I have logs in excess of 40 gigs. All the info in the BOL is very vague. Any assistance would be apreciated.
Currently, my client is allowing all the developers to log in as sa and most servers have a NULL sa password. Not a good idea. I am recommending them to move to integrated security with NT groups and to move away from using the sa login altogether. Then to secure the sa login, actually give it a password (something cryptic). I also wanted to set up an alert whenever someone logs in using the sa password. How can that be accomplished? A trigger on the sysprocesses table would work but seems a little risky.
I am currently trying to export from SQL to notes via NotesSQL.I have set up the necessary ODBC data sources & DTS job. I am encountering errors when I attempt to execute the DTS package .

I've truncated and shrunk the database and now, it says that the size of the db is 14 mb and 8mb is free. However, on the file system, the mdb and ldb files together adds up to 14 mb. How can I free up the 8 mb for other usage?
In Enterprise Manager, Management and then SQL Server Logs, when I clicked on Current or Archive#1 or 2 etc, nothing happens. This has been going on for the past 3 weeks does any one knows what is causing such problems?

I want to have the Transaction logs truncate on checkpoint what is the best way to do this, I take a complete backup everynight of the database. Wouldnt this set a checkpoint and clear the logs? If so it doesn't do that for me.

Is it normal for database response times to slow down as the transaction log fills up. I have noticed that once it gets above 65% our clients response time through the web slows down? Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Please share any experience and/or suggestions on moving the T-logs to a separate physical drive. What I have read so far suggests that the best way is to sp_detach, physically copy (not move) the logs, and then sp_attach again.. but some questions are unanswered.
For some reason, everything I've found has you copying both .mdf and .ldf files to the new drive... I guess that was just an oversight on the part of the individuals who wrote the documents.. can't imagine wanting to copy the .mdf files too.
When you sp_attach, must you specify the original location for the .mdf files as well as the new location for the .ldf files? Do you have to go into server properties, Database settings/ and change the location of 'default log directory' manually?
