How To Find The Size Of The Database Dump.

Jul 20, 2005

hi,

There is facility to do backup of the database. I can use that
facility to backup the database. But before i do a backup i want to
check if the disk space available enough to backup that database. I
have a 22gb database mdf file, when i took a backup of that its only
3gb. SO i cannot use the size of mdf file to determine the database
dump file. Is there any facility available to find out the backup
database dump size before doing the backup?

Thanks
Nabhonil.

How To Increase Query Buffer Size In The Crash Dump?

Jul 9, 2007

Hi,

SQLSERVER 2005 keeps throwing assertation error and generating crashdumps.

I want to isolate the cause, however, the query is too long (>2kb) to fit in a crash log.



Is it possible to increase the size allocated to showing the query in the crash dump, or get the full text of that query causing the crash?

Dump Database

Aug 3, 1999

Hi all,

When I use "DUMP DATABASE", it will help me to backup both database and
transaction log. However, it will not help me to clean up the transaction log.
Therefore, I am worry that will the following happen?

1. DUMP DATABASE
Start backup database
( there are transactions during the backup process )
Finish backup database
Start backup transaction
Finish backup transaction

2. DUMP TRANSACTION
Start backup transaction and clean up the transaction log

So, will the transactions been backuped twice? If yes, will it cause those
transaction do twice when I restore the database then restore the transaction?

Thanks

How Do You Dump A Database With MS SQL?

Jul 20, 2005

Tried googling, but I guess I have the wrong terminology for MSproducts.Using PostgreSQL, or MySQL, if I wanted to tranfer a database from onemachine to another, I'd do a "dump" with a single command, such as:mysqldump [databasename] > [path/filename]Then I'd take the file generated and dump it back onto a new machine.What's the process with MS SQL Server? Can someone point me in theright direction to a webpage dealing with this?--[ Sugapablo ][ http://www.sugapablo.com <--music ][ http://www.sugapablo.net <--personal ][ Join Bytes! <--jabber IM ]

Dump Database Vs. Sqlmaint.exe -bkupdb

Oct 25, 1999

Both "dump database" and "sqlmaint.exe -bkupdb" would be able to backup database, one important advantage I can see from "sqlmaint" is that it has the option to cleanup the very old generations of backups by using -delbkups option in a scheduled maintenance backup job, while the "dump database" would first create a dump device and it'll grow with time.
Is there any suggested way to use the "dump transaction" but still we can get control on the size of dasd used ?
Any negative part of using "sqlmaint" utitity to backup database as compared to the "dump database " utility ?

SQLMaint Insists On DUMP DATABASE

Oct 13, 1999

We run SQLMaint hourly ( as a scheduled task ) to clear our transaction logs. Last night our hard drive filled up during a log dump, causing SQLMaint to fail, and a subsequent transaction filled up the log.

We succeeded in manually truncating and clearing the log, but SQLMaint still insists on us doing a DUMP DATABASE to clear the logs before it will run again. Unfortunately, we do not have enough space left on our hard drive to do a full database dump.

Is there any way of fooling SQLMaint into believing that a DUMP has been run? Some flag in a system table somewhere, or maybe a registry entry?

Newbie : Dump The Log On Distribution Database ?

Apr 12, 2001

Hi there,

I'm a newbie. I've installed a replication between 2 NT4 servers, with SQL 6.5. My logreader tasks has crashed "Can't allocate space for objects 'syslogs' in database 'distribution' etc...". With a DBCC SQLPERF(LOGSPACE) I can see that the log is 100% full, but I can't dump it : when I use DUMP TRAN DISTRIBUTION WITH NO_LOG, my distribution log is still 100% full. So how can I do to dump it and what can I do to prevent it from filling up ? Do I need to dump it like I do for my database but how could it work if a DUMP TRAN doesn't work ?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the English, it's not my native language.

Scheduled Database Dump Dilemma

Mar 7, 1999

I am fairly new to SQL server and am having a problem getting the SQL backup or "dump" to do what I need it to do. My desired end result is to have a database backup every night to a backup device on the same server as SQL is running, and keep one weeks worth of databases in the backup device, overwriting the database backup from 7 days before. This device is then transferred sometime later to another server using the NT AT scheduler. The first time I tried to accomplish this I used Enterprise manager to schedule a full backup to be run each night at midnight. The backup device was set to be initialized and retained for 7 days. This procedure worked once, the first night. There after it failed. In looking at books on line it said that I needed to change the transact -SQL command from INIT to NOINIT as the INIT instruction was the cause of the failure. I changed the statement in the Scheduled Task manager to NOINIT. That seemed to do the trick as I checked the backup device each of the next few days and saw that it was indeed performing the backup and retainng the databases. A week later I checked the backup device again and found that it is still adding database dumps to the file, but it is not overwriting the dumps that are 7 days old. I am told that I need the INIT statement in the dumpdevice command in order for the RETAIN DAYS = command to kick in. However, this did not work before. I can not continue adding to the dump device as it will get too large and take up too much disk space on the server. The only way I can get the device to a reasonable size is to do a backup and initialize the device, which gets rid of all of the older databases. This seems like a catch 22. Is there any way I can make this work. I am running SQL 6.5 on the latest service pack (5a). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Table Size - Trying To Find Out Space Used

Jul 8, 2002

I'm trying to determine how much space some tables use (SQL2000), and I found 2 suggestions posted earlier, but can't get them to work for me.

The first was
"Right click on the DB in Enterprise Manager, select view then taskpad."

When I try that, I get some of the tables displayed with the info I want, but I can't see them all and can't scroll down beyond the first 22 tables in the database.

The second suggestion:

exec sp_msforeachtable @command1="print '?'",@command2="sp_spaceused '?'"

It says "command copleted successfully, but where does the output to this go ?? Is there something other than "print" I should use ?
The grid pane is empty.

Find Specific Index Size

Mar 27, 2008

We're looking at optimizing some of our tables because we have indexes on columns that are not used. So for example we might have a table that has 6GB of data and 4GB in indexes (according to sp_spaceused). We need to know how much of the 4GB of indexes is consumed by each of the indexes individually. I've tried dbcc showcontig, but that doesn't tell me the amount of space used by the index that I run it for.

Second (and by far not as important), is there a way to determine how much space is being consumed by data in a specific column. The original creator of some of the tables added an incrementing identity column that is used no where in the system. I'd like to be able to say..."If we drop this column we'll save XXX in space."

Knowing the index space is more critical, the column space would be nice but not necessary.

Dump Database Task Stops SQL Executive

We are running sql 6.5 with Serv. pack 4. All of our Prod. database are backedup weekly via scheduled tasks. On occasion the dump of a particular database will cause 1 of 2 things:
1. The db dump seems to work correctly but stops sql executive service.
2. The db dump seems to work correctly but sends an alert email msg to me indicating that it failed. The msg in the email is "NO Message".

Has anyone experienced either of these 2 problems or have any solutions?

Table Size And Database Size

Mar 2, 2008

Hi,
i use this script that show me the size of each table and do the sum of all the table size.

SELECT
X.[name],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[rows]), 1), '.00', '') AS [rows],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[reserved]), 1), '.00', '') AS [reserved],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[data]), 1), '.00', '') AS [data],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[index_size]), 1), '.00', '') AS [index_size],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[unused]), 1), '.00', '') AS [unused]
FROM
(SELECT
CAST(object_name(id) AS varchar(50)) AS [name],
SUM(CASE WHEN indid < 2 THEN CONVERT(bigint, [rows]) END) AS [rows],
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, reserved)) * 8 AS reserved,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, dpages)) * 8 AS data,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, used) - CONVERT(bigint, dpages)) * 8 AS index_size,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, reserved) - CONVERT(bigint, used)) * 8 AS unused
FROM sysindexes WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE sysindexes.indid IN (0, 1, 255)
AND sysindexes.id > 100
AND object_name(sysindexes.id) <> 'dtproperties'
GROUP BY sysindexes.id WITH ROLLUP) AS X
ORDER BY X.[name]

the problem is that the sum of all tables is not the same size when i make a full database backup.
example of this is when i run this query against my database i see a sum of 111,899 KB that they are 111MB,but when
i do full backup to that database the size of this full backup is 1.5GB,why is that and where this size come from?
