MDF And LDF Files Size Command
Jul 23, 2005
Hi All,
I want to shrink a transaction log using :
USE Master
BACKUP Log test WITH truncate_only
USE test
DBCC shrinkfile(test_log, 0)
These commands will be executed from a workstation.
After shrinking, I want to see the size of the
transaction log and database files. But, I do not
know what command should I use.
Could anyone help me ?
Thanks in advance

I have the need to delete old backup files via TSQL job. Found this solution online:
PushD "
emoteservershareDIFF" &&(
forfiles -m *DIFF*.sqb -d -1 -c "cmd /c del /q @path"
) & PopD
It works remotely if I run it via command prompt. But when I add this to a TSQL job on my remote SQL instance, it runs without deleting anything. What I'm missing?

Is it possible to change the command buffer size??
I need to export data on demand to an excel spreadsheet via a stored procedure. The only way I know how to do this is through a bulk copy command; but my query is much to big for the buffer....
Thanks!!!

My database .mdf file size is around 6 GB however .ldf file size is 200 GB.
Though I don't know exactly what .ldf file is, I believe maybe that is the reason why some of the stored procedures taking long time to run which were running good before.
Can I delete the .ldf file? If not, can I do something to reduce the file size?
The database (tables) are also replicated to another sql server in another computer.

Help!
I have a scheduled command exec that executes every minute. If the execution is successful it returns zero or non-zero if error. I would like to raise an error, that would be trapped as an alert to take corrective action.

I need to know how big SQL Server 7 backup files are in comparison to the database size. For example if I have a database that is 300 Mb and I do a complete backup to disk with SQL Server 7 will the backup file be about 300 Mb?
Thanks,
Mike

I have a 24gig DB that has 1 data file.
Is it possible to RESTORE the backup to a DB that has 2 files
(1 = 10gig 2 = 14gig).
Does one of the files on the the DB have to be at least 24gig to RESTORE?

I would like to add to it the actual file size in mb or gb of each file to the results.
select sd.name,mf.name as logical_name,mf.physical_name,
case
when dm.mirroring_state is null then 'No'
else 'Yes'
end as Mirrored
from sys.sysdatabases sd JOIN
sys.master_files mf on sd.dbid = mf.database_id
join sys.database_mirroring dm on sd.dbid = dm.database_id
The sp_spaceused procedure does a nice job on it's own giving me what I want (only one db though), plus a bonus allocated space column. How can I combine this sp with my other query, or is there a better way to ad this information?

Due to SQL's proportional fill algorithm I'd like to have the amount of data in my data files as close to equal as possible.
File sizes before:
dat 482,895 MB 0% free
2dat 436,927 MB 3% free
I made the max size of each file 600,000 MB and added a third file 3dat also 600,000 MB. I rebuilt all the clustered indexes (and nonclustered for good measure) and unfortunately the re-balancing wasn't quite right.
File sizes after:
dat 464,761 MB 77% free
2dat 443,234 MB 73% free
3dat 309,568 MB 51% free
I only have a handful of heap tables that take up <100MB total so they're not the issue. I did do an ONLINE index rebuild. I'm not sure if an offline rebuild would have been better. I will not be able to try and offline for a few weeks though as it's time consuming and I have other tasks I need to run on this test server now.
I did a FULLSCAN rebuild on any column statistics not updated by the index rebuild but that didn't help either.

I am on SQL Server 2008 R2. I have a table that contains a field called [Location]. In that field is a UNC path to the physical file on the repository. Is there a way in SQL Server that I can say give me the select sum([Location] UNC file) where criteria? I saw some posts about xp_filesize or xp_GetFileDetails, but I do not see them in master. I am unable to add anything and wondering if there is any native functionality that would allow me to accomplish this!?

I have a client with no backup of MASTERdb or Help_rev_devices, all I have is a couple of .dmp's of the production data. In order to run DISK REINIT I need to know the size of the database, is there any way of finding out the size of the database device, if all you have to go with is a backup dump file?
I know it won't be pretty.

Any good starting point to understand for a specific db, how many max VLFs are good to have so that it does not cause long startup or backup times?
Also, I need some calculation so that I can identify a best growth parameter I will setup for each database ?
I'm seeing the below msg in errorlog and curious to know the changes (right sizing/growth) to be done? As of now 100 MB of log file growth value is set (refer: [URL] ....)
Database BizTalkMsgBoxDb has more than 1000 virtual log files which is excessive. Too many virtual log files can cause long startup and backup times. Consider shrinking the log and using a different growth increment to reduce the number of virtual log files.

Hi All,
i am using a OLE DB Source in my dataflow component and want to select rows from the source based on the Name I enter during execution time. I have created two variables,
enterName - String packageLevel (will store the name I enter)
myVar - String packageLevel. (to store the query)
I am assigning this query to the myVar variable, "Select * from db.Users where (UsrName = " + @[User::enterName] + " )"
Now in the OLE Db source, I have selected as Sql Command from Variable, and I am getting the variable, enterName,. I select that and when I click on OK am getting this error.
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E0C.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E0C Description: "Command text was not set for the command object.".
Can Someone guide me whr am going wrong?
myVar variable, i have set the ExecuteAsExpression Property to true too.
Please let me know where am going wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Hi folks,Can anyone enlighten me here? I'm trying to use a SPROC which, when supplied with an int, looks up the table and returns certain columns from it. I'm using a SqlCommand, here's my codebehind: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SqlCommand dataSource = new SqlCommand("retrieveData", new SqlConnection(dbConnString)); dataSource .CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("id", poid); dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("title", title).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("creator", creator).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("assignee", assignee).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; etc, etc...

Using C#, SQL Server 2005, ASP.NET 2, in a web app, I've tried removing the size from parameters of type NCHAR, NVARCHAR, and VARCHAR. I'd rather just send a string and let the size of the parameter in the SP truncate any extra chars if need be. I began getting the error below, and eventually realized it happened only with output parameters, as in the code snippet below.String[3]: the Size property has an invalid size of 0. par = new SqlParameter("@BusinessEntity", SqlDbType.NVarChar); par.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; cmd.Parameters.Add(par); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();What's the logic behind this? Is there any way around it other than either finding out what the size should be, or assigning a size larger than would ever be needed? ThanksMike Thomas

For example, cardnumber varchar(20) Encrypted by Triple_DES and PassPhrase, How match size does need to encrypted data store field.

Hi. I am writing a program in C# to migrate data from a Foxpro database to an SQL Server 2005 Express database. The package is being created programmatically. I am creating a separate data flow for each Foxpro table. It seems to be doing it ok but I am getting the following error message at the package validation stage:
Description: An OLE DB Error has occured. Error code: 0x80040E0C.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E0C Description: "Command text was not set for the command object".
