SQL 2012 :: Create Clustered Index On A Very Large Table (500 GB)

May 7, 2014

I need to create a Clustered Index (CI) on a very large SQL Server 2012 database table. This table has about approximately 10 billion rows, 500 GB in size. The job ran for about 20 hours into it and then fails with error: "Out of disk space in tempdb". My tempDB size is 1.8TB, but yet it's still not enough.

Here is my script:

CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX CI_IndexName
ON TableName(Column1,Column2)
WITH (MAXDOP= 4, ONLINE=ON, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON, DATA_COMPRESSION=PAGE)
ON sh_WeekDT(Day_DT)
GO

DB Design :: Script To Create Table With Primary Key Non-clustered And Clustered Index

Aug 28, 2015

I desire to have a clustered index on a column other than the Primary Key. I have a few junction tables that I may want to alter, create table, or ...

I have practiced with an example table that is not really a junction table. It is just a table I decided to use for practice. When I execute the script, it seems to do everything I expect. For instance, there are not any constraints but there are indexes. The PK is the correct column.

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblNotificationMgr](
[NotificationMgrKey] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[ContactKey] [int] NOT NULL,
[EventTypeEnum] [tinyint] NOT NULL,

[code]....

SQL Server 2014 :: Error - Cannot Create More Than One Clustered Index On Table

Aug 18, 2015

i have created a fact table which has unique cluster index as below,

CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX [FactSales_SalesID] ON [dbo].[FactSales] (salesid ASC)
WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE)
GO
however later when i add CLUSTERED COLUMNSTORE INDEXES :
CREATE CLUSTERED COLUMNSTORE INDEX CSI_FactSales
ON dbo.FactSales WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = COLUMNSTORE)
GO

it prompts error.

Msg 35372, Level 16, State 3, Line 167 You cannot create more than one clustered index on table 'dbo.FactSales'. Consider creating a new clustered index using 'with (drop_existing = on)' option.

Simple Query Chooses Clustered Index Scan Instead Of Clustered Index Seek

Nov 14, 2006

the query:

SELECT a.AssetGuid, a.Name, a.LocationGuid
FROM Asset a WHERE a.AssociationGuid IN (
SELECT ada.DataAssociationGuid FROM AssociationDataAssociation ada
WHERE ada.AssociationGuid = '568B40AD-5133-4237-9F3C-F8EA9D472662')

takes 30-60 seconds to run on my machine, due to a clustered index scan on our an index on asset [about half a million rows].  For this particular association less than 50 rows are returned. 

expanding the inner select into a list of guids the query runs instantly:

SELECT a.AssetGuid, a.Name, a.LocationGuid
FROM Asset a WHERE a.AssociationGuid IN (
'0F9C1654-9FAC-45FC-9997-5EBDAD21A4B4',
'52C616C0-C4C5-45F4-B691-7FA83462CA34',
'C95A6669-D6D1-460A-BC2F-C0F6756A234D')

It runs instantly because of doing a clustered index seek [on the same index as the previous query] instead of a scan.  The index in question IX_Asset_AssociationGuid is a nonclustered index on Asset.AssociationGuid.

The tables involved:

Asset, represents an asset.  Primary key is AssetGuid, there is an index/FK on Asset.AssociationGuid.  The asset table has 28 columns or so...
Association, kind of like a place, associations exist in a tree where one association can contain any number of child associations.  Each association has a ParentAssociationGuid pointing to its parent.  Only leaf associations contain assets. 
AssociationDataAssociation, a table consisting of two columns, AssociationGuid, DataAssociationGuid.  This is a table used to quickly find leaf associations [DataAssociationGuid] beneath a particular association [AssociationGuid].  In the above case the inner select () returns 3 rows. 

I'd include .sqlplan files or screenshots, but I don't see a way to attach them. 

I understand I can specify to use the index manually [and this also runs instantly], but for such a simple query it is peculiar it is necesscary.  This is the query with the index specified manually:

SELECT a.AssetGuid, a.Name, a.LocationGuid
FROM Asset a WITH (INDEX (IX_Asset_AssociationGuid)) WHERE
a.AssociationGuid IN (
SELECT ada.DataAssociationGuid FROM AssociationDataAssociation ada
WHERE ada.AssociationGuid = '568B40AD-5133-4237-9F3C-F8EA9D472662')

To repeat/clarify my question, why might this not be doing a clustered index seek with the first query?

DB Engine :: How To Convert Unique Clustered Index Into Clustered Primary Key To Use With Change Tracking

Sep 4, 2015

We are going to use SQL Sever change tracking. The problem is that some of our tables, which are to be tracked, have no primary keys. There are only unique clustered indexes. The question is what is the best way to turn on change tracking for these tables in our circumstances.

Data Warehousing :: Difference Between Primary Key With Clustered And Non-clustered Index

Jul 19, 2013

I have created two tables. table one has the following fields,

                      Id -> unique clustered index.
         table two has the following fields,
                      Tid -> unique clustered index
                      Id -> foreign key of table one(id).

Now I have created primary key for the table one column 'id'. It's created as "nonclustered, unique, primary key located on PRIMARY". Primary key create clustered index default. since unique clustered index existed in table one, it has created "Nonclustered primary key".

My Question is, What is the difference between "clustered, unique, primary key" and "nonclustered, unique, primary key"? Is there any performance impact between these?

Converting A Clustered Index On A PK Identity Field To Non-clustered

Sep 8, 2006

Hi there, I have a table that has an IDENTITY column and it is the PK of this table. By default SQL Server creates a unique clustered index on the PK, but this isn't what I wanted. I want to make a regular unique index on the column so I can make a clustered index on a different column.

If I try to uncheck the Clustered index option in EM I get a dialog that says "Cannot convert a clustered index to a nonclustered index using the DROP_EXISTING option.". If I simply try to delete the index I get the following "An explicit DROP INDEX is not allowed on index 'index name'. It is being used for PRIMARY KEY constraint enforcement.

So do I have to drop the PK constraint now? How does that affect all the tables that have FK relationships to this table?

Thanks

Clustered Index On Client_ID+ORderNO+OrdersubNo, If I Create 3 Noncluster Index On Said Column Will It Imporve Performance

Dec 5, 2007



Dear All.

We had Teradata 4700 SMP. We have moved data from TD to MS_SQL SERVER 2003. records are 19.65 Millions.

table is >> Order_Dtl

Columns are:-

Client_ID varchar 10
Order_ID varchar 50
Order_Sub_ID decimal
.....
...
..
.
Pk is (ClientID+OrderId+OrderSubID)

Web Base application or PDA devices use to initiate the order from all over the country. The issue is this table is not Partioned but good HP with 30 GB RAM is installed. this is main table that receive 18,0000 hits or more. All brokers and users are using this table to see the status of their order.

The always search by OrderID, or ClientID or order_SubNo, or enter any two like (Client_ID+Order_Sub_ID) or any combination.

Query takes to much time when ever server receive more querys. some orther indexes are also created on the same table like (OrderDate, OrdCreate Date and Status)

My Question are:-


Q1. IF Person "A" query to DB on Client_ID, then what Index will use ? (If any one do Query on any two combination like Client_ID+Order_ID, So what index will be uesd.? How does MS-SQL SERVER deal with these kind of issues.?

Q2. If i create 3 more indexes on ClientID, ORderID and OrdersubID. will this improve the performance of query.if person "A" search record on orderNo so what index will be used. (Mind it their would be 3 seprate indexes for Each PK columns) and composite-Clustered index is also available.?

Q3. I want to check what indexes has been used? on what search?

Q4. How can i check what table was populated when, or last date of update (DML)?

My Limitation is i Dont Create a Partioned table. I dont have permission to do it.



In Teradata we had more than 4 tb record of CRM data with no issue. i am not new baby in db line but not expert in sql server 2003.


I am thank u to all who read or reply.

How Do I Set Access 2002 Upsizing Wizard To Create Clustered-index On SQL 2005

Jun 3, 2006

Here is an extract from the Acc2Sql2.doc >>


By default, the Upsizing Wizard
transfers all indexes as nonclustered indexes. You can modify the Upsizing
Wizard to transfer the primary key index to a clustered index. To make this
change, start Microsoft Access and open the upsizing wizard library database.
For Microsoft Access 95, the filename is Wzcs.mda. For Microsoft Access 97, the
filename is Wzcs97.mda. When the database is open, click the Modules tab and open the
UT_ModUserConstants module. Search down to the UT_CLUSTERED constant. Change
the default value from False to True.

<<< end quote
Question: I am using ACCESS 2002 upsize wizard, I searched my computer for *.mda and could not find any wzcs*.mda. How do I set it so that it creates clustered-index instead of non-clustered-index?

Advantages Of Using Nonclustered Index After Using Clustered Index On One Table

Jul 3, 2006

Hi everyone,
When we create a clustered index firstly, and then is it advantageous to create another index which is nonclustered ??
In my opinion, yes it is. Because, since we use clustered index first, our rows are sorted and so while using nonclustered index on this data file, finding adress of the record on this sorted data is really easier than finding adress of the record on unsorted data, is not it ??

Thanks

Clustered Index On A VERY Big Table

Oct 28, 2006

I already posted this over on sqlteam so don't peek there if you haven't seen that post yet. :)

So now to the question:

Anyone care to guess how long it took me to build a clustered index on a table with 900 million rows? This is the largest amount of data in a single table I have had to work with thus far in my career! It's sorta fun to work with such large datasets. :)

Some details:

1. running sql 2005 on a dual proc 32bit server, 8gb ram, hyperthreaded, 3ghz clock. disk is a decent SAN, not sure of the specs though.

2. ddl for table:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[fld](
[id] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[id2] [tinyint] NOT NULL,
[extid] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[dd] [bit] NOT NULL,
[mp] [tinyint] NOT NULL,
[ss] [tinyint] NOT NULL,
[cc] [datetime] NOT NULL,
[ff] [tinyint] NOT NULL,
[mm] [smallint] NOT NULL,
[ds] [smallint] NOT NULL
)

3. ddl for index (this is the only index on the table):


CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX [CIfld]
ON [dbo].[fld]
(
extid asc
)WITH (FILLFACTOR=100, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = OFF, DROP_EXISTING = OFF, ONLINE = OFF)


4. extid column was not sorted to begin with. ordering was completely random.

Note that I have changed the column names, etc, to protect the innocent. I can't go into details about what it's for or I'd be violating NDA type stuff.

Include Clustered Index In Non-clustered Index?

Oct 15, 2007

Hi everybody!

I just ran the Database Engine Tuning Advisor on a relative complex query to find out if a new index might help, and in fact it found a combination that should give a performance gain of 94%. Fair enough to try that.

What I wonder about: The index I should create contains 4 columns, the last of them being the Primary Key column of the table, which is also my clustered index for the table. It is an identity integer btw.

I think I remember that ANY index does include the clustered one as lookup into the data, so having it listed to the list of columns will not help. It might at worst add another duplicate 4 bytes to each index entry.

Right? Wrong? Keep the column in the index, or remove it since it is included implicit anyway?

Thanks for suggestions!

Trying To Load Table With Clustered Index

Mar 22, 2001

We are trying to load flat text files with upwards of 7 million records into a table on SQL. The table has a clustered index on 3 fields. We setup the indexes prior to importing the data. We are sometimes able to complete smaller tables (500,000-750,000 records), however when we try the larger tables an error occurs :

Error at Destination for row number 6785496. Errors encountered so far in this task: 1

Location: somerge.c:1573
Expression: mrP->mrStatus!=MERGERUN::NONE
SPID: 11
Process ID: 173

The destination row number is the same number as the total number of rows that we are trying to load.

None of the recods end up importing. The row number it gives is always the total number of records that was in the text file I was trying to import. I tried to import the text files first and then build the clustered indexes but a table with only 300,000 records ran for nearly 4 days without completing before we killed it.
Be for we try to load the file we always delete whatever is there. Some of the files that we try to load are new and we have to set up the indexes from scratch.
We are using a DTS wizard. Someone told me to find a way to get it to commit every 1000 or so but I can't find a way to do it. I looked and looked but can't find it !!!


Please help me on where to look......:(


Thanks,
Cheri

Table Order In Clustered Index?

Feb 29, 2008

I have a table "Client" that has two columns: "ClientID" and "ProductID". I created on clustered index on ClientID and when I opened the table in the management studio, I saw the table was in the order of ClientID.

Then I added another non-clustered index on ProductID. When I open the table again, it is in the order of ProductID. Shouldn't the table always be in the order of clustered index? Non-clustered index should be a structure outside of the table itself? Did I do anything wrong?

Thanks for any hint.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Non-clustered Index On Temp Table?

Nov 2, 2010

I am trying to create a temp table with a non-clustered index.

Originally I tried to create the index after I created the table.

This seemed to work fine, so I added my stored procedure to our Production environment.

However, when two users called the stored procedure at once I got the following error:

There is already an object named 'IX_tmpTableName' in the database. Could not create constraint. See previous errors.

I then found that SQL Server does generate unique names for the temp table but not all the objects associated with the temp table if they are explicitly named.

This is easy enough to solve for a PRIMAY KEY or UNIQUE constraint because the do not have to be named.

Is there a way to create an non-clustered index on a temp table without naming it?

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Joining On A Table With Unique Clustered Index

Mar 7, 2015

I have three sprocs and three tables. I was told to use a clustered index in the first table and a unique clustered index on the second table. I never asked about the third table and the person I need to ask is on vacation. Most of the contents of the first table will be joined with all of the contents of the second table into the third table. Do I need to have a unique clustered index on the third table too?

The clustered index in the first sproc is on a unique key that I had created using by concatenating several columns together.

CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX IX_UNIQUE_KEY ON MRP.Margin_Optimization_Data (UNIQUE_KEY);
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IX_DATE ON MRP.Margin_Optimization_Data (PERIOD);
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IX_ODS_ID ON MRP.Margin_Optimization_Data
(GL_SEG1_COMPANY_ODS_ID, GL_SEG2_PROFIT_CTR_ODS_ID, GL_SEG3_LOB_ODS_ID, GL_SEG4_PRODUCT_DEPT_ODS_ID, GL_SEG5_ACCOUNT_ODS_ID);

The second sproc with the unique clustered index is on the unique key from the first table and a date attribute.

CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX IX_UNIQUE_KEY ON MRP.[MGN_OPT_KPI_SOURCE] (UNIQUE_KEY, PERIOD);

In the third sproc, I'll have a nonclusted index on the ODS_ID attributes, but I'm unsure of how to go about the clustered index situation.

CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IX_ODS_ID ON MRP.MGN_OPT_KPI_VALUES
(GL_SEG1_COMPANY_ODS_ID, GL_SEG2_PROFIT_CTR_ODS_ID, GL_SEG3_LOB_ODS_ID, GL_SEG4_PRODUCT_DEPT_ODS_ID, GL_SEG5_ACCOUNT_ODS_ID);
