Schedule Mail Of DB Sizes
Jan 22, 2004
Wonder if anyone can help me out here.
I'm trying to set up a job to run overnight that mails me the size of all the databases on SQL Server.
The way I'm getting the size of the db's is by running the following in SQL Query Analyzer...
EXEC sp_MSforeachdb @command1="print '?' select cast(name as varchar(32)), round(size * 8 / 1.024,3) from ?..sysfiles"
Can anyone suggest a way that I can export the results of this to a text file that can then be mailed to me as part of a scheduled job.
Or can anyone suggest a better/easier way of doing this??
Thanks in advance. :)

Could anyone walk me through how to do the following:
Schedule a query to run at a designated time
Embed the resulting table in a HTML email
Email the HTML formated results someone automatically
Can this be done with SQL Server only or is there a third party app?
I know its alot but I'm having a hard time finding resourses.

Anyone here with a ready to go sqlscript that lists all db's, files, sizes, owner etc? I guess it's a combination of sp_databases, sp_helpdb and sp_helpdb [db].

I've set up DB mail and sent a test e-mail and that comes through fine.
I set up an Operator with email Name: DWhelpton@k-and-s.com;MWeaver@k-and-s.com
I created a job and set up the notifications to e-mail the operator on failure.
When the job runs and fails, I do not get an e-mail and I get the following exception in the db mail log:
Date 2/2/2007 8:35:00 AM

Hello,
I was told a while ago that your Log should be 2 times the size as your data. Is this a good rule of thumb?

Does anyone know of a quick way to find out what the largest indexes on a database are? I have a number of tables and was wondering if there's a stored proc or query that I can execute that will list the indexes and their size in order by size? Thanks

Hi there
I hope this isn't a totally stupid question, but I was wondering how to check the physical size the DBs take up on disks...
Does MSSQL save DBs as a specific file-extension? Is there an SQL command I can run that will give extensive info on DB sizes?
Any help welcome :)
Thanks!

When you have the autogrowth turned on for log files. What happens when you put a max file size on it? Will just overwrite the old logs to keep the file at the max size or will it just create a new file every time it hits the max size?
Thanks!

I'm putting together a manual system that tracks data growth in a certain database. I was going to use sp_spaceused as a part of it, but then realized the datatypes for size are CHAR, not INT or BIGINT. I was going to do counts, averages, etc. on those columns but that wouldn't work against a CHAR field obviously. I could easily write a little something to strip out the KB, but was hoping there was another way to get those figures.
Secondly...has anynoe seen a stored procedure/code/etc. that just calculates the largest/smallest/average row size for a table? I haven't been able to find anything anywhere...
Any insight would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks!

Hi Everyone,
Hopefully someone out there will have an idea as this is driving me nuts.
I've setup a task to email on success/failure and keep receiving the following message when executed:
Progress: The SendMail task is initiated. - 0 percent complete
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Failure sending mail.".
Progress: The SendMail task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Send Mail Task failed
When I configure Outlook Express on the same machine with the same settings it works.
On the SMTP Connection Manager I have left the default name, tested with both an IP address and Server Name, and no authentication or SSL.
On the Send Mail Task, it uses the above connection. The To: , From: , Subject fields are populated. Message SourceType is DirectInput, MessageSource is Test, Priority is Normal and no attachments or expressions etc.
Nothing useful is logged in the Event Viewer even with full logging turned on.
Any suggestions appreciated,
Thanks.

Hello again everyone....
I have another question for everyone....
I am currently cleaning up my database to get its total size down and am not sure how nvarchar and varchar work exactly.
When defining the length of a varchar or nvarchar in enterprise manager, will that effect the size of the entry (as far as data size) no matter what the length of the entry? In other words, will there be a difference in Data Size for an entry with the length of 4 characters with a definition of varchar(4) versus an entry with the length of 4 characters with a definition of varchar(50).
****If there is no difference, is there any reason in trying to best guess the size to give nvarchar or varchar columns? It would seem easier to just define the lengths of columns which need variable lengths to 200 or 400 just to save time in not trying to best guess what the size might be...*****
Thanks ahead for any help...

Hi,
I am looking to runa query to get the sizes of the tables in my SQL 7 DB.
I know I can access the info in Enterprise Manager, under "Tables & Indexes".
But I need to get this info via a query.
I need rows and size.
I figured out how to get rows through the sys tables:
select sysobjects.name, sysindexes.rows
from sysobjects,sysindexes
where sysobjects.name = sysindexes.name
and xtype = 'U'
Is the size of each table stored in a sys table as well? I can't find it.

I have inherited a number of databases which were substantially over sized when they were set up. I'd like to reduce both the log and database files to be smaller than their original sizes, what's the easiest way to do this? If anyone has any experience of doing this please reply.

We are looking at installing a new Oracle server for a client but have been told that they have used Oracle in the past but had a lot of problems with slow response even though the bandwidth on the WAN was barely being used. He says that this was due to the fact that Oracle sends out very small packets across the network meaning that there are hundreds of packets being sent out. This caused a problem on the routers being used as it was killing the processors. Is this still the case and have you had other reports of slow response of this nature?

Ok, I have a new one. Several of my devices are showing with negative sizes when viewed in edit in enterprise manager. I cannot edit them as the change now button is grayed-out. Oddly enough they are all located on the same drive. The master (on C drive), and the tempdb (on D drive) both show as the default device. I am very confused. User access to the information is fine. What gives?

Hi All,
I ran the following query to get the log file sizes for all databases:
select (size*8.00)/1024,filename from master..sysaltfiles
When I compared the results from this query with the transaction log properties in EM, not all of the sizes match.
For example, EM shows the transaction log size for tempdb to be 2 MB but the results of the query shows that transaction log size for tempdb is .5 MB. Which query can I run to get the numbers that would match between two? Thanks.

Admin is kind of new to me. Could someone recommend how to reduce these file sizes?
In Dev, my MDF is 16 MB, LDF .5 MB.
I run a script to recreate the schema and insert rows on the Host.
When downloading a db backup from the Host and restoring it to Dev, my MDF is 24 MB, LDF 25 MB.
The same dataset grew by ~35 MB!!!
Any advice is welcome. Thank you. Rick

I have reporting services installed on a windows 2003 server. If i open a report directly on the server using Internet Explorer 7 and reportviewer and click the print button on the report viewer control. The print document lines up perfectly on the output page and prints beautifully. I have a winforms app that calls the same report as an IMAGE and then prints it. The size of the output on the print page is way off and the font is almost triple. I have it working in another clients environment with similar serve setup and same versions. I have tried different print drivers and different workstations but I think it has something to do with reporting services config. Can someone please help. I have set all margins in the .rdl file to 0 and when i create the PrinterSettings object I set all margins to zero again.
Thanks in advance.

Got a question,
still new to sql server express, been playing with it for a while, kinda enjoying it.
But
If you were designing a database that had many tables with the possibility of a large amount of data, would you keep them all in one database or would you disperse them into multiple databases. There will be some relations used in some of the tables, but not all.
I believe I will end up with about 21 different tables, 9 of them have the potential for 1,000's of records.
I do appreciate anyone's thoughts or concerns

Hello,
The Database Mail feature is already enabled on the server, also I have a mail account on the other server.
The problem I faced is that I need to send mail from my SQL Server using a created email account on the other server. How should I configure my email to do that ?
Should I use a sysmail_add_account procedure to enable account, also set profile and profile account ? Does this way creates server mail account that is binded with other email account?
The mail should be sent from my SQL Server.
Thank You.

I keep getting a generic "Error Sending Mail" error. For testing purposes I am just trying to send using my own email account. What goes in the SMTP Server box in the connection manager? I have tried:
A - the exchange server address (SOMETHING.us.company.com)
B - The SMTP properties I see when I look at the properties of my email address: (my.name@abcd.efgh.company.com)
C - Just the end portion of the SMTP properties: (abcd.efgh.company.com)
D - My email address (my.name@company.com)
I don't know what to enter, or what is giving me such a generic error message.

Hello
I have got a script which gives the mail to the dba mail box when database backup fails.
In the script I want to make a change so that I get the particular database name , on what ever database i implement.
Can you tell me some suggestions.
The script I am using is :
use master
go
alter PROCEDURE dbo.SendMail
@to VARCHAR(255),
@subject VARCHAR(255),
@message VARCHAR(8000)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE
@rv INT,
@from VARCHAR(64),
@server VARCHAR(255);
SELECT
@from = 'testsql2000@is.depaul.edu',
@server = 'smtp.depaul.edu';
select @message = @message + char(13) + Char(13) + @@servername + '-'+ db_name()+ '-' + 'Backup Status Failed' + Char(13)
EXEC @rv = dbo.xp_smtp_sendmail
@to = @to,
@from = @from,
@message = @message,
@subject = @subject,
@server = @server;
END
GO
--- After the above script is run the following should be given in the 2nd step when
--- the backup jobs are scheduled ------
exec master.dbo.sendmail
@to = 'dvaddi@depaul.edu',
@subject =' Test sqlserver 2000',
@message = '' ;
Thanks

I know you can specify additional recipients in the To column by sepperating them with a semicolon. But whats the easiest way to send to several users, when the email address must be retrieved from a table with a query like this:
select email from problem_subscribers
where project = 'project1'
and statusmail = 'OnError'
So when the eventhandler gets an OnError i want the mail task to be sent to each problemsubscriber.
