I am trying my first sliding partition scheme with 2005, and I am getting the following error...
ALTER TABLE SWITCH statement failed. Check constraints or partition function of source table "ScanStoreAggregateLoad' allows values that are not allowed by check constraints or partition function on target table "ScanStoreAggregateTest'.
I have gone over the functions and constraints a gazillion times. The columns are set to Not Null. The constraints are set to AND NOT NULL. The constraint values align and align with the function. But still I get the failure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here are the definitions:
CREATE PARTITION FUNCTION pfn_ScanStoreAggregate(int)
AS
RANGE LEFT FOR VALUES
(19224,
19225,
19226,
19227)
CREATE TABLE dbo.ScanStoreAggregateTest(
ProductID int NOT NULL,
DateKey int NOT NULL CONSTRAINT ck_ScanStoreAggregateRange CHECK ((DateKey BETWEEN 19224 AND 19227) AND (DateKey IS NOT NULL)),
A customer wants to implement table partitioning on a replicated table.
They want to hold 13 months of data in the table and roll off the earliest/oldest month to an identical archive table. The table has a date field and partitioning by month makes sense all around.
So SWITCH PARTITION is the obvious solution to this, except for the fact that the table is replicated (transactional w/no subscriber updates).
What are his architectural or practical solutions to using table partitioning and replication?
Hello everyone, thanks in advance for reading. I'm new to reports and have tried searching for my answer with no luck. Any direction would be great.
Here is the issue, I have 3 colums in the dataset which display String data ("High", "Medium", or "Low")
I've added a column to the table on the report where I would like to convert the value of "High", "Medium" and "Low" to 3,2,1 respectively then SUM these numbers.
Is this possible? I've tried several variations of the code below--maybe it's not possible to do what I want? Thanks again for your time and help.
Fields!PP.Value is set to: =Switch(Fields!Avail_Rank.Value = "High", 3, Fields!Avail_Rank.Value = "Medium", 2, Fields!Avail_Rank.Value = "Low", 1)
I need to switch two int values in my table, but I have no clue how to do it. If I switch the 6 to a 5, then I can't distinguish between the 5 that's supposed to be a 5 and the 5 that needs to be a 6. Any help is greatly appreciated - thanks in advance!
I am having problem when performing the alter table switch. Both tables are identical and have pk.
ALTER TABLE SWITCH statement failed. There is no identical index in source table 'LocalDeltanet.dbo.testresults' for the index 'PKIDX_testSummary' in target table 'LocalDeltanet.dbo.testresults_part' .
WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON)
ON TResultsScheme (testresult_id) ) ON TResultsScheme (testresult_id)
I have performed the function on other tables successfully, but this is the first that has an identity column involved. Is there anything special that needs to be done?
If the partitioning MERGE command attempts to drop historic data at the wrong boundary point then data movement between file groups may be necessary before or during the next index rebuild. The script below creates 2 test tables, one using a range right function and the other using range left. The partitioning key is a number between 0 - 59, an empty partition is maintained at the start and end of ranges, 4 partitions contain data in the ranges between 0-14, 15-29, 30-44, 45-59. Data in the lowest range (0 - 14) is switched out and a merge command is run, edit the script to try the different merge boundaries, edit the variables at the start to suit runtime environment 'Data Drive' & 'Log Drive' paths.Variables are redeclared but commented out at the start of code blocks to allow stepping through if desired.
--================================================================================= -- PartitionLabSetup_20140330.sql - TAKES ABOUT 1 MINUTE TO EXECUTE -- Creates a test database (workspace) -- Adds file groups and files -- Creates partition functions and schema's -- Creates and populates 2 partitioned tables (PartitionedRight & PartitionedLeft)
[Code] ....
The T-SQL code below illustrates one of the problems caused by MERGE at the wrong boundary point. File Group 3 of the Range Right table is empty according to the data space views, it cannot be dropped though. File Group 2 contains data according to the views but you are allowed to drop it's file.
USE workspace; DROP TABLE dbo.PartitionedRightOut;
USE master; ALTER DATABASE workspace REMOVE FILE PartitionedRight_f3 ; --Msg 5042, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 --The file 'PartitionedRight_f3 ' cannot be removed because it is not empty.
ALTER DATABASE workspace REMOVE FILE PartitionedRight_f2 ;
-- Works surprisingly although contains data according to system views.
If the wrong boundary point is used then the system 'Data Space' views show where the data should be (FG2), not where it actually still is (FG3). You can't tell if data movement between file groups is pending and the file group files are not protected from deletion by the OS.
I'm not sure this is worth raising a connect item for but it would be useful knowing where data physically resided after a MERGE RANGE and before an INDEX REBUILD, the data space views reflect the logical rather than the physical location if a data movement is pending.
Hi Sqlserver experts,I use the SQL Server enterprise manager of MSSQL 2000 regularly.I'm often annoyed by the automatic blanking of the table views.If this happens then mostly with the hint :"The Results pane have been cleared to conserve server resources.To re-establish the result set, run query again."Is there any possibility to switch that blanking off ?Best regards,Daniel Wetzler
Working on partitioning a few large tables. One of the tables included a text column and the €śTEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]€? clause which would prevent the partitioning of this table. After some research we found that the data was legacy and no longer used. We updated the column on the affected rows to NULLS and altered the column to a VARCHAR(20) When I attempted to run the ALTER TABLE SWITCH I encountered the error Msg 4947, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 ALTER TABLE SWITCH statement failed. There is no identical index in source table 'LocalDeltanet.dbo.testresultsjoe' for the index 'PKIDX_testSummary' in target table 'LocalDeltanet.dbo.testresults_part'. After a lot of grief and testing I determined that the message was bogus and the real issue is that the 'sys.tables' still has €ślob_data_space_id€? with a value of 1 for this table. I created a copy of the table with the text column altered to varchar and one with just the varchar to begin with. After copying data from the original table, I tried to run the alter switch. It failed once again for the text column altered to varchar table, but it worked for the varchar from the start.
Since it appears that this value is causing my issues, is there anyway to update the table in place. I know I can BCP the data out, but that would take too long and would defeat the advantage of using the alter switch method.
BOL States:
The allow updates option is still present in the sp_configure stored procedure, although its functionality is unavailable in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (the setting has no effect). In SQL Server 2005, direct updates to the system tables are not supported. This means we cannot update the table manually.
Hi All Server 2003 standard edition, MSsql 2005 standard edition As I understand it server 2003 standard only supports 4gb. Does this mean I can only use up to 4gb as the maximum memory for server 2005? If that is the case I would like to use the 3GB switch, and leave the other gig for other apps. If I set the 3GB switch in boot.ini do I then also have to enable AWE (which I can't seem to do) or can I forget about AWE altogether?
Hi,Is it possible to switch to another user's credentials after logging in? Iseem to remember that there is a stored procedure for this, but I can't finddetails anywhere. I want to temporarily suspend my login's admin privilegesand become an "ordinary" user, for testing purposes.Thanks,Peter
There are some concept about context switch block me .
---executor: dbo create user u1 without login
go
create table t
(
col int
)
go
create proc proc1
with execute as 'u1' as
insert into t values(1)
go
exec proc1
I think proc1 can't be run successfully beacuse the executor of proc1 is u1 and I didn't grant any permission to user u1. So it will return a error message like The INSERT permission was denied on the object 't', database 'tempdb', schema 'dbo'
To my surprise, the "exec p1" command could run successfully..
hi out there On our Windows 2003 servers w. sp1 and running MS SQL Server 2000 w. sp4 we see from time to time that we get this error "cannot allocate 64k continous memory" or "SQL Server could not spawn process_loginread thread" which could be caused by nothing left in the "Memtoleave" pool - I have now search for advice on how to determine the values for the -g-switch - but without much success - and if I just go for the "try&error" concept my sql-server just allocates less and less ??? - ehh - in which units are the parameters for the -g option specified - bytes, kilobytes, mbytes - 4k block ???? Any suggestions for measuring the actual running value of this pool - memtoleave ??
So here's what I'm trying to do: I have three columns of data. Sometimes only one of the columns will contain a value while others may contain a null. If two or three contain a value it will be the same. So if I'm building a table in the layout designed and I want the value of the table to be the value stored in these columns. In pseudocode it looks like this:
Switch(column1 and column2 are null, value = column3, if column1 and column3 are null, value = column2, otherwise, value = column1)
Something like that where column1 is the default so if column 1 has a value then set the textbox value to it otherwise find a column that has it. I know that at least one column will definitely have a value. Anyone that can provide guidance on how to execute these I would appreciate it greatly.
Starting to play around with SQL server at work and this is my question:
In the query design mode in access I can make one of the fields an expression that is driven by a built-in switch function. i.e. Switch([CategoryName] Like "Beverage","Drink",[CategoryName] Like "Cheese","Dairy") This results in the additional column field I created to display "Drink" for each record that has the CategoryName = "Beverage", and "Dairy" for "Cheese".
Can I do something like this in SQL server in the view designer itself, or do I need to make a user defined function and call it?
Any One Tell me how i can use N'Switch in SQL Server Stored Procedure . When I use Such a this syntax i am encountered and stoped with a error. the is below(Stoerd Prdocedure Code) ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~- CREATE proc sp_check_userpass(@username nvarchar(50),@password nvarchar(50),@first nvarchar(50),@last nvarchar(50),@email nvarchar(50),@stage int )as declare @cnt int begin select @cnt=count(*) from member_info where (@username=username and @password=password) if(@cnt=0) begin insert into atable(first,last,username,password,stage) values(@first,@last,@username,@password,@stage) end else return @cnt end GO ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~- Other thing is that when exec this store proc it must be return a value return back to the @cnt but it is return only This( The command(s) Completed succefully).

I have two SQL servers. One licensed for 2000 Standard Edition licensed under the processor model. The other is SQL 2000 Enterprise Edition licensed under the user cal model.
I want to switch these Editions and licensing models. My production server needs the Enterprise Edition and I want to put the processor licensing model with it. I want to put the Standard Edition on my reporting server with the user cal licensing model.
I have the instructions to upgraded Editions and it is straight forward. Can I use this procedure for both servers and not have issues?
Basically I have 635k records in a table with a person's first name, and date of birth (other stuff but it's not relavent). I imported all the data from excel files, but somehow a bunch of records got the first name and date of birth mixed up, so I'm trying to write a stored procedure that would switch the first name with the date of birth wherever the firstname is purely numeric, or something of the sort. Now records are in fact repeated so another possible but more time taking solution is to write a stored procedure that I give the date of birth and it does the switching around for the respective date of birth when it's found inside the First name. Any suggestions? All the code I've written has proved useless :/
Is it possible to switch back to SQL 6.5 after upgrading to SQL 7.0 using the tape method? During the tape upgrade the 6.x devices are deleted. Is there no backout plan?
Dear all,i am planing to implement a Windows 2003 Cluster with MS SQl 2000Enterprise Edition. I have 2 Nodes (4 * XEON MP Processors) with 8 GBRAM per Node.I have the need for 6 SQL instances and would like to implement aactive-active cluster. What do you think it the best way to configurethe memory for the Servers ?I would like to run 3 instanced per Node but can i allocate 7 GB perNode for SQL (and 1 for the Operating System) ?What is happening then i one server fails ?Should i plan to allocate only 3 GB per Server for SQL to make surethat one server can handle the load for all instances if one serverfails ?Should i use the /AWE switch only in the boot.ini to allow more than 4GB Memory ?or should i use the /3 GB switch as well ?Maybe somebody can give me a hint.Best regards,Walter

We are running a DTS package with the dtsrun utility and would like topass a variable through it. Inside our package we have a VB scriptthat references a table that contains the information about all of ourjobs and we would like to pass a variable to tell it which jobs torun. The reason we cannot just add the variable to the VB script,i.e. in a where clause, is because we would like more then 1 bat fileto run this package. We want some jobs to run with 1 bat file andother jobs to run with another. If we could pass through a variableof 1 that would refer to a column within our table then only thosejobs would run at that time. Make sense?Any help is appreciatedThanks
I have a couple of reports with predefined queries. When I try to edit a data set query it goes directly to query design mode losing the query I already had. As you can see this is a real problem because I can't edit queries. How can I switch off design mode? any ideas are pretty much appreciated.
Does anyone know how to get the original Login name, while a context switch is in effect.. For example during the use of Original login to SQL is Wayne Then Execute as Test
Now I need to know that Wayne is the Login and not Test
none of the standard things work, they all use the current context (suser_sname, etc)... Books online includes the following text
SYSTEM_USER returns the name of the currently executing context. If the EXECUTE AS statement has been used to switch context, SYSTEM_USER will return the name of the impersonated context. Use the LOGIN() function to return the name of the original login during impersonation.
But I cannot find any function called LOGIN() anywhere?

I did some research on line and I came to know that I need to switch the debugging mode to change the 64 bit to false. But I am too novice in SSIS, so I am not sure how to switch the debugging mode. Any idea about it?
I have switched my datatype to varChar(7000). I set to "only" 7000 to allow for the addition of other fields and still stay under a 8000byte record limit. My data is still being truncated sometimes. I''m not even able to get up near 7000 characters on the big text field.
I have a table partitioned by month. There are no primary key. There is another table with the same structure that I use to load data for the current month. I can perform partition switch with no problem.
I created non unique index on integer field in both tables. After this change partition switch does not work anymore. Here is an error that I am getting:
'ALTER TABLE SWITCH' statement failed. The table 'dbo.test' is partitioned while index 'IX_test' is not partitioned."
