View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using the 3-tiered architecture design (presentation, business laws, and data acess layers). I am stuck on how to send the image the user selects in the upload file control to the BLL and then to the DAL because the DAL does all the inserts into the database. I would like to be able to check the file type in the BLL to make sure the file being uploaded is indeed a picture. Is there a way I can send the location of the file to the BLL, check the filetype, then upload the file and have the DAL insert the image into the database? I have seen examples where people use streams to upload the file directly from their presentation layer, but I would like to keep everything seperated in the three classes if possible. I also wasn't sure what variable type the image would be in the function in the BLL that receive the image from the PL. If there are any examples or tips anyone can give me that would be appreciated.

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.......

View 14 Replies View Relatedhi, i'm a newbie in SQL Server and have recently setup a test SQL 7 server. I used all the defaults at the beginning, and now the MDB file is about 500MB and the LDF file is of similar size.
i'm still trying to figure out how to reduce the size of the transaction log file. Currently I only have full backup of the database once a week, and there is no backup for transaction log.
as of this moment, the transaction log is of not much use to me, but I really want to get it reduced as i'm running out of disk space.
and i'd also greatly appreciate if someone could suggest a good DBA practice on the proper setup/handling of transaction logs (how to balance the disk-space usage AND be able to use the transacton logs for proper roll-over during a recovery process).
i'd soon be setting up a SQL 7 server where about 10 active users are expected at any one time. I've read that the transaction log file should be about 40% to 50% of the estimated size of the database file, and should be allowed "auto-grow". So what happens if the more space is required by the transaction logs? Does a full-backup purge the transaction logs (like the way they do in Exchange Server)?
Thanks!
Hi,
My transaction log file's physical size has exceeded 2GB. How can I reduce that?
Is there any way by which this file size can be controlled?
We have a database which was created with an initial file size of 10 gig. Currently it is only using 2 gigs.
We have developers that want to have a copy of the database on their desktops, but do not have 10 gigs free space.
What is the best way to get them a copy of the database while reducing the footprint?
HELP !!! I have a 1.2GB transaction log that I cannot reduce. I have tried SHRINKFILE, SHRINKDATABASE, restoring the file into a new data base, etc. The log file is only using 15MB and will not release the remainder to the OS
Any and all suggestions would be helpful
Thanks, Chad

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

Hi, my database size has grown out of control and I need help with thefollowing issues. (I am very new to databases)I am storing financial tick data in one of the tables and after two monthsthe database has grown to 30GB. I do not need a permanent record of thistick data after it has been processed and tried to remove all rows from thistable (delete from Tickdata), however sql does not take kindly to removingmillions of rows and the operation seams to time out. The only solution Icould come up with was to delete the table.Secondly, after managing to clear out these tables I have noticed that thedatabase size is still 30GB, despite 29GB being available. Is there any wayto reduce the size of the database from 30GB. I tried the shrink databaseoption but it does not do anything. Any ideas?Thanks.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are using SQL Server 2000 Standard ed, sp4 on Server 2000 Advanced.We have one table that is three times as large as the rest of the database.Most of the data is static after approximately 3-6 months, but we arerequired to keep it for 8 years. I would like to archive this table (A), butthere are complications.1. the only way to access the data is through the application (they areimages produced by the application-built on Power-Builder)2. there are multiple tables refrencing this table and vise-versa3. we restore the entire db to two other servers for testing and trainingregularly4. there might be more complications that have not been thought ofCurrently, our only plan is to setup a seperate server with a copy of this dbon it and the application. Leave only the tables necessary to access the data,and if this 'archive' works, remove from production the data from the table Aand all references to the table A from rows on the other tables.I mentioned #3 because someone mentioned a third party tool that may be ableto pull the data from the table, archive it elsewhere, and at the same time,place a 'pointer' in the table to the new storage location. The tool theymentioned only works on Oracle and we have not explored beyond that yet.I am ready to explore ideas and suggestions; I am still new to the DBA world,I am out of ideas.Thank you!--Message posted via SQLMonster.comhttp://www.sqlmonster.com/Uwe/Forum...eneral/200607/1

I am trying to resize a database initial log file from 500M to 2M. I€™m using€?
ALTER DATABASE <DBNAME> MODIFY FILE ( NAME = <DBLOGFILENAME, SIZE = 2 ) "
And I'm getting "MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size." I tried going into the database properties and setting the log file to 2M, but it doesn€™t keep the changes.
Any help with this process?
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.

I need to write a process to get file size in kb and record count in a file. I was planning on writing a c# console app that takes the file path and name as a param however should i use a CLR?
I cant put a script in the ssis when it's bringing the file down because it has been deemed that we only use ssis for file consumption.
