HelloDoes anyone one know the max size of a database that I can create onMS-SQL server 7. Have had any problems using databases near the maxsize (slow performance, etc)ThanksHelena
I am a beginner in learning SQLServer 7.And I learn it by using its own help file. The only problem troubles me is that after I do some options in database diagram,there's nothing happen.And then no matter what I do,database diagram panel is always blank.
I looked at the number of VLFs in ony databases and figured out it was 300. I looked at the log file and its 40GB with 99% free space. I reduced the log file to 1GB. Now I looked at the VLFs and the count is 250. so 250 vlfs in a 1GB of log file. Is there a way to get the VLFs to a decent number?
Also my transaction log backups run once every 5 mins and auto growth on data and log files is 10MB.

If I need to delete any record, please let me know how to delete it. If their is any Query for it, please send the Query.

Can SQL server7 restore a single table? If one table corrupted, do I have to restore the whole database for this table ?( It is awkward to restore the whole database only for a single table! especially the database is large!)
I have a full backup done on a very important server 7 database. Now i have to test to see if it is saving okay and to do a mock restore to see how quickly we can restore same. The size of the file is about 700M. I would have to do my testing on a test server. How do I go about this. Thanks.
Hello, Can anyone please tell me the best way to upgrade server1 with SERVER7 and OS of NT to a new server2 with SERVER2000 AND WINDOWS 2000 ? The data in the old server is very important. Thanks
we are having SQL server7.0 with DPT raid card which gives the problem of backup/restore through normal SQL backup in Enterprise manager.So we are not using the above procedure but we have moved all the tables using SQL EXPORT to another new server. Can you please give a solution to transfer Stored procedure from the server to new server
The company finally bought a legitimate copy of SQL Server 7. There was nothing special on my trial version, so I chose the uninstall option from the start menu (it was on my Win95 PC). It removed the files, but didn't uninstall the registry bits though! When trying to install the proper version of SQL 7 it has detected the other version, but no files & won't let me install the legitimate version. Can anyone tell me how to get around this to install the new version?
I posted this problem last week and still couldn't get this to work. I have a backed up copy of a production db that i want to test.

I would like to complete this test today. Thanks
When I try to create a primary key for a table(alter table tablename add primary key( columnname)), I get a message " SQL 1918. ( Index (key=2) is being rebuilt)." Does any one have a clue, as to why do I get this. The primary key does get created ,but my application stops working, after getting this message.
Hello, I have to do an upgrade from server 7 and OS NT to server2000 and windows 2000. Has anyone had any problems while doing this ? Please list the steps taken for the upgrade if you can. Thanks
I need to reduce the size of a db from it's original allocated size of 2.0 gb to 1.0 gb.so that I can allocate more to another db.How can I do?Thanks, Ravi.
Basically, what I'm doing is storing answers to questions in a survey. I have two ways I can organize the table:
1. Just having a table with lots of columns - one for each question
2. A table with only about maybe 3 columns: SurveyID QuestionID QuestionAnswer
In this second case, the the primary key would be both SurveyID and QuestionID combined, of course.
I don't fully know the pros and cons of the two approaches, and both look like they would work. Right now, I'm using option 1, but I keep wondering if option 2 might be better. Whenever I change the questions, I currently have to drop and recreate the table (altering it is too much effort), and I know option 2 would be a way of avoiding that. By the way, the questions themselves are stored in an xml file, if it means anything. Anyhow, once the survey is being used, there shouldn't be any further changing of questions. And there's also just too much I don't know about (how is performance affected, for example?).
I have a search function, which searches across many tables.
It's a pretty heavy SPROC, I'm wondering in general, what are the best way to reduce deadlocks ? Its used a fair bit, and altho I haven't noticed problems with it myself, there are definately a decent amount of deadlocks showing up in the logfiles.
I've always assumed this is something really difficult, and avoided it like the plague.
I'm new to SQL Server Maintainance. I need some disk space now. In my database, I have some table that has 7 year old data and I can get rid of that without any conequences. Could you please tell me the best course of action ?? I was thinking about:
1. Dropping those tables. 2. Recreating them again 3. Running ShrinkDB on entire DB.
However, this solution does not sound right or elegant to me. Could you please help me with that ? Thanks

My database's transaction log has become 1.7 GB. Can I reduce it's size? I have tried to shrink database and also set truncate on checkpoint option and also taken the backup after that. but nothing helps. Please advice.
I am using SQL 7, SP1 / NT 4. The .LDF file has grown to 1.1GIG; I ran a DBCC SQLPerf(LogSpace), the used portion of the log is 2%. When I run a DBCC Shrinkdatabase and DBCC Shrinkfile, the log file does not reduce in size. How do I get the virtual log files that are not active released back to the system? Is there a way to tell if all the virtual log files are active, therefore, not reducing the size of the file? Any help is greatly appreciated.......
I had a database that’s comprised of different file groups and log files spread out among different hard drives. I have recently upgraded the database to SQL 7.0 on a RAID 10 volume. I would like to consolidate all the file groups and files as well as various log files into one primary datafile and logfile. How do I do that? Thanks in advance.
