Has anyone explored a process whereby the Transaction Log would be backup up based upon a defined threshold, ie. 75% full? All the research against news group posts and SQL2000 literature seems to point to scheduling a log backup job on a periodic basis. My workflow isn't 24 hour consistant and even adjusting the interval during the day isn't a good answer when the multiple databases on a server fill their logs at different rates.

We have 8 SSIS jobs which need to be made dependent on the arrival of a single file.
All the flows need to be triggered based on the presence of a file
Whats the way to do this
Thanks

I need to send some reports only when there is data in the relevant tables. This is totally random and could be at anytime during a given day or any day the week. This involves multiple reports and the user is adamant that she does not have time to initiate the reports herself. Any ideas how this can be accomplished?

Can someone share how to setup an event-driven cache refreshing option? The options provided from SSRS interface are based on a fixed schedule. If I would like to setup a dependency in determining when to refresh reports caching, based on the successful refreshing of the underlyinn SSAS cube, how can I achieve it?
Is there an utility/API provided by SSRS? Any samples scripts are very much appreciated.
Thanks,

On the SQL Server the Event Viewer shows the same messages and errors every evening between 22:05:00 and 22:08:00. The following information messages are shown for every database:
"I/O is frozen on database <database name>. No user action is required. However, if I/O is not resumed promptly, you could cancel the backup."
"I/O was resumed on database <database name>. No user action is required."
"Database backed up. Database: <database name>, creation date(time): 2003/04/08(09:13:36), pages dumped: 306, first LSN: 44:148:37, last LSN: 44:165:1, number of dump devices: 1, device information: (FILE=1, TYPE=VIRTUAL_DEVICE: {'{A79410F7-4AC5-47CE-9E9B-F91660F1072B}4'}). This is an informational message only. No user action is required."
After the 3 messages the following error message is shown for every database:
"BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP LOG <database name>. Check the backup application log for detailed messages."
I have added a Maintenance Plan but these jobs run after 02:00:00 at night.
Where can I find the command or setup which will backup all databases and log files at 22:00:00 in the evening?
hi,
newby dba.
have a maintenenace plan and job to do transactino log backup
it shows as failed with event 208 from step 1. In the sql log it just says transaction log backed up .. .no errror. There is a file from the backup too as expected ... not sure if it is the correct size etc (only 80k) how do I check that?
Saw a message on the web about quoted identifiers being off causing the maintenance proc to fail- add parameter -SupportComputedColumn to the end of the call. I have done this even though this may not be the cause.
I want to try it out to see if it works, but can I do a transaction log backup whilst users are on the database?
Any other opinions on how to get around the 208 error would be greatly apprciated.
cheers

What could have caused that? Any help will beappreciated.Stan

We are planning to implement Xevents in all the servers in place of Trace files and everything is working fine.
Is it possible to configure Extended event to trigger a mail whenever any event (example dead lock) occurs.
I have gone through so many websites but i never find.
My SQL Server 2005 SP4 on Windows 2008 R2 is flooded with the below errors:-
Date 10/25/2011 10:55:46 AM
Log SQL Server (Current - 10/25/2011 10:55:00 AM)
Source spid
Message
Event Tracing for Windows failed to send an event. Send failures with the same error code may not be reported in the future. Error ID: 0, Event class ID: 54, Cause: (null).
Is there a way I can trace it how it is coming? When I check input buffer for these ids, it looks like it is tracing everything. All the general application DMLs are coming in these spids.
I have been testing with the WMI Event Watcher Task, so that I can identify a change to a file.
The WQL is thus:
SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent within 30
WHERE targetinstance isa 'CIM_DataFile'
AND targetinstance.name = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Backup\AdventureWorks.bak'
This polls every 30 secs and in the SSIS Event (ActionAtEvent in the WMI Task is set to fire the SSIS Event) I have a simple script task that runs a message box).
My understanding is that the event polls every 30 s and if there is a change on the AdventureWorks.bak file then the event is triggered and the script task will run producing the message.
However, when I run the package the message is occurring every 30s, meaning the event is continually firing even though there has been NO change to the AdventureWorks.bak file.
Am I correct in my understanding of how this should work and if so why is the event firing when it should not ?

Hi all,
Can we get the event properties by using a query?
Are there any extended stored procuder to get the above?
Scenario:
>Desktop>Right Click on My Computer
>Go to Manage and click
>Expand System Tools
>Expand Event Viewer
>Application
click on one event.We can get the log info which is the manual procudure.
But now i want to get the event properties through the Query analyzer...
Any help would be great?
Thanks,
We recently upgraded to SQL 2005 from SQL 2000. We have most of our issues ironed out however about every 1 minute there is a message in the Application Event log and the SQL log that states:
EVENT ID 18456 Login Failed for the users DOMAIN/ACCOUNT [CLIENT: <local machine>]
This is a state 16 message which I thought meant that the account does not have access to the default database. The account is actually the account that the SQL services run under.
Any ideas? We can't seem to figure this one out. We actually upgraded to 2005 from 2000 and had an error appear after every reboot that prevented the SQL Agent from running(This application has failed to start because GAPI32.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.) We did a full uninstall of SQL and reinstalled fresh and restored the databases from .bak files and that is when the EVENT ID 18546 started occuring every minute.
We don't have any SQL heavy hitters here so please be detailed with any possible solutions. That you very much for any help you can provide!

Hi there
I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.
The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).
Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?
Thanks

Hello;
I need to create a data driven query task where the destination is a view. The option to select a view is only available for the source.
I have created a view because the first attempts to create a data driven query againt the required table (db is over 4000 tables, 4 GB of data)resulted in workstation lockups.
Thank you.

Is it possible to copy an existing Data Driven Subscriptions and make some minor changes?
Elias
I am using Reporting Services 2005 locally for testing purposes and also on a production server. Locally, I can create data-driven subscriptions, but not on the server. The only difference I can think of between my local test environment and the production server is the versions of SQL server database. Locally, I am using SQL server 2005 but on the server I am using SQL server 2000 (but with Reporting Services 2005). Can the version difference be the reason for not being able to use data-driven subscriptions?
Note: I have followed various guidelines and walkthroughs that describe how a data-driven subscription is created, i.e. stored credentials on the report server and such should not be the problem.
Operating systems: locally; Windows XP. Server; Windows Server 2003.
Thanks!

Hi
I created a new data-driven subscription which successfully created a guid job on the server under jobs. So, I run the job and I get no report emailed to me. On the report manager all it says is I have 1 error. I cant figure out what the error is and where do I go to see what the error is? I know it is in some log file under MSSQL, but I dont know which log file and what I should be looking for in that log file. Any help is appreciated.
I guess, in summary, how do I debug a data-driven subscription?
I'm very new at this and found this video very helpful. I downloaded Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition and following the direction except for changing a few column names.

I copied all the data to my website and tried to view it there but got some error that I don't understand. Can someone please help.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering what everyones preferred way to install a database in an automated fashion is.. IE:
You have a webapp. It sdriven by SQL Server. You need to prompt the user for a server, username, password, and database. Once you have those, you execute thge scripts against the DB.
I've been using osql.exe. but heres the situation. The installer may be run from a system, which does not have the sql server client tools installed. Which will be a problem.
So, given the situation that the machine the application is being installed on, does not have the client tools installed. How would YOU execute the provided SQL script against a remote server.
I'm trying to perform a simple DTS tassk and am having no luck. All I'm trying to do is to run a task that will delete rows from an Access table. I presume I have to create a Data Driven Query in order to do this, but I can't seem to get the formula just right.
Can someone shed some light on the subject, please? BOL says little to nothing about how to set up a simple task. Microsoft.com is also pretty lsackluster with regards on what to do.
Again, thanks for any help.

Hello to a new forum. I am very impressed with the level of ability I have been seeing on this forum and all the helpful posts that are going on.
I am hoping someone can help me solve my problem. I know enough SQL to be very dangerous how to create, delete, insert, update etc... and how to build queries. Here is my dilemma I need to have a piece of scheduling software send out reminder emails based on a DATETIME field. I am running SQL Server 2005, and the database mail is already configured and can successfully send out email from the management studio interface.
Does anyone know of a tutorial or can point me in the right direction to accomplish this task. I am well versed in PHP, and am hoping I might be able to get the server to trigger a PHP script or something to this extent.
