View 7 Replies View RelatedSQL 2012 :: How To Find Autogrowth OFF In DMVs
Feb 25, 2015So I need to write a script to look for available free space percentage in my databases, but I only want it to look at capped files. We consider a file with autogrowth off as capped for our purposes.
This is my problem: in sys.database_files and sys.master_files, if I have autogrowth off then max_size is -1, which is the same value as unlimited growth.
I cannot find another setting anywhere to determine how SQL Server recognizes that a particular file is set to not allow autogrowth. Any setting in a DMV anywhere where I can see whether autogrowth is disabled or not?
Setting Up Encryption For Large Databases
Jun 19, 2007We are going to be getting a new system to house our large databases. Some of these databases will need to be encrypted. Ideally we'd like to set up encryption in SQL server rather then have to purchase an appliance to encrypt the data. What is the trade off of using SQL server 2005 to encrypt data? Does performance suffer a great deal with a large database (500g-4tb)? Also, how much more/less sure is the encryption for SQL Server? Some of our users need to be able to read the data as unencrypted while working, but we need to keep the system as secure as possible. Answers to any of these questions would be incredible helpful.
Thanks,
Robb S.

Moving Tables Between Databases And Setting Alias
Apr 27, 2006Due to bad programming techniques and legacy databases, my company has a large database with all the tables in it. I would like to start moving these tables out of the database and into more appropriately named databases.I was wondering if there was a way to set an alias up so that, when the table is moved, there will be no problems with out code still trying to access the table from the old database.Maybe an example is the best way to explain this. Lets say we have a DB_Company database with table T_Customers, T_Suppliers, etc.Now, as the company grows, we decide to create a dedicated database for all the customers. So we create a database DB_Customers and move the T_Customers table into it.The problem is that they may be some code that is still trying to access the DB_Company.T_Customers table. Is there a way of setting an alias up so that, when someone tries to access the DB_Company.T_ Customers table, he is automatically redirected to the DB_Customers.T_Customers?Hope that's not too confusing :-(Jag
View 2 Replies View RelatedSetting Up SQL Server Encryption Between Multiple Servers And Databases
Feb 23, 2007Greetings.
I have a setup/deployment question regarding SQL Server Encryption.
Internal database encrypts data in 3 different tables. This could execute on any one of 6 different servers.
The tables with encrypted data are replicated to another database on different servers (3)
How should the keys/certificates be created so that the data in the replicated database can be decrypted?
In my test scenario so far, I have been unable to have the second database decrypt the data that was encrypted on the first database (currently on the same server).
-- Create Database Master Key
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY
PASSWORD = 'p@ssw0rd'
GO
-- Create Certificate
CREATE CERTIFICATE MyCertificate
WITH SUBJECT = 'My Data Encryption Certificate',
EXPIRY_DATE = '10/31/2010';
GO
CREATE SYMMETRIC KEY MyKey
WITH
ALGORITHM = AES_256,
IDENTITY_VALUE = 'My Symmetric Key',
KEY_SOURCE = 'Unique phrase that will be used to secure the key'
ENCRYPTION BY CERTIFICATE MyCertificate;
GO
Where To Find Detailed Error Report When Setting Up Mirroring Fails
Dec 14, 2006I had a problem with mirroring that I only was able to resolve when I attempted to replicate instead. Replication gave me an error message that expained the problem; mirroring simply failed.
Is there any place where mirroring logs the details of what it is doing & why it is failing?
BTW, the problem was that the server name was changed after SQL was installed. Although i knew this, the forums indicated taht SQL 2005 automatically picks up the new name after it is restarted. This apparently is not true...
Thanks

How To Find Out Which Databases A User Have Access To?
Apr 3, 2007Hi, my first question, tried to use search first but couldnät find what I need.
Hopefully someone has asuggestion.
I work for a ISV producing HR applications.
When user starts the applications the program shows all databases that the user have access to. This is done by select all names from master..sysdatabases and then trying to "USE dbname" to see if user have access,. Users doesn't have sa rights.
This procedure takes approximately 90 secs for a server with 500 databases and that has become a problem.
Does anyone know off a faster method, any suggestions?

How To Set Autogrowth Off / On (T-SQL)
Oct 2, 2007I am testing a msde 2000 sp4 database. (would like to use it against sqlserver 2005 later)
I need to turn the property for autogrowth on and check that an application alterts the user that it is on
and then off and verify the user is altered that it was set off.
I am not sure if this will work for mydb and mydblog
--turn off autogrowth
USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE mydb
MODIFY FILE
(NAME = mydb,
FILEGROWTH = 0MB)
GO
--turn on autogrowth
USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE mydb
MODIFY FILE
(NAME = mydb,
FILEGROWTH = 10MB)
GO
USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE mydblog
MODIFY FILE
(NAME = mydblog,
FILEGROWTH = 0MB)
GO
--turn on autogrowth
USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE mydblog
MODIFY FILE
(NAME = mydblog,
FILEGROWTH = 10MB)
GO
Also I need to know the t-sql for setting unrestricted growth on and off but I can not seem to find that.
Any help would be great.
We can not use enterprise manager so I'm planning to use osql thru a cmd prompt.
thanks

Autogrowth Values Keep Changing
Sep 21, 2006Hi!
We have 2 dbs on our dw-server and the autogrowth values for both the data- and logfiles on both of these dbs changes about once a month. The data autogrowth value changes from 10megs to a percentage value between 3200 and 6400 and the log-file value changes from 10 percent to a percentage value between 3200 and 6400. Resulting in huge files and filling the drive.
What am I missing here?

How To Find Differences In Column Data Types Between Tables In Two Different Databases Using TSQL
Apr 21, 2008
I have Two Database that exist on Two seperate servers. The two database contain same schema and contains tables and columns of same name. Some tables have slight differences in terms of data types or Data type lenght.
For example if a Table on ServerA has a column named - CustomerSale with Varchar (100, Null) and a table on ServerB has a column named CustomerSale with Varchar (60, Null), how can i find if other columns have similar differences in all tables with the same name and columns in the two servers.
I am using SQL Server 2005. And the Two Servers are Linked Servers
What Script can i use to accomplish this task. Thanks
Bug: Data File Autogrowth Set To 12800%
May 11, 2006SQL2K5 SP1the autogrowth setting in one of my database's primary filegroup datafile keeps having the value of 12800%, which was originally set to100MB, everytime the service is restarted. the same occurs whenever irestore a backup of this database in our development environment.WTF? this issue does not happen to other filegroups. only on theprimary data file. whenever this happens the 4GB data file grows tomore than 70GB (even the math is incorrect) with about 95% of UNUSEDspace.has anyone else come accross this BS or anyone knows how to preventthis from happening? is MS aware of this not-so-funny joke?thanks

DB Engine :: DB Autogrowth Turned On In Secondary Data File Still 0% Internal Free Space
Oct 30, 2015Today we received an issue on an application database on internal free space on the DB is 0% that was designed with as below

2 of the secondary data files had its autogrowth enabled to unrestricted with 200MB and 3 of the data files including primary had its Autogowth turned OFF. Application use is complaining that there is no internal freespace on the DB.
What fails to understand us is that when the Auto growth was already TURNED OFF on 3 data files ( 1 primary and 2 secondary ) still why was the application trying to increase the space on the .mdf and .ndf files; as well when the Autogrowth is TURNED ON on 2 of the secondary data files, why was the DB not able to expand these file groups when the autogrowth is already turned off on 3 of its other files.
What more data i need to ensure i submit an analysis to this.

Anything That You Find In SQL Object Scripts, You Can Also Find Them In System Tables?
Jul 26, 2005I tried all the INFORMATION_SCHEMA on SQL 2000 andI see that the system tables hold pretty much everything I aminterested in: Objects names (columns, functions, stored procedures, ...)stored procedure statements in syscomments table.My questions are:If you script your whole database everything you end up havingin the text sql scripts, are those also located in the system tables?That means i could simply read those system tables to get any informationI would normally look in the sql script files?Can i quickly generate a SQL statement of all the indexes on my database?I read many places that Microsoftsays not to modify anything in those tables and not query them since theirstructure might change in future SQL versions.Is it safe to use and rely the system tables?I basically want to do at least fetching of information i want from thesystem tables rather than the SQL script files.I also want to know if it's pretty safe for me to make changes in thesetables.Can i rename an object name for example an Index name, a Stored Procedurename?Can i add a new column in the syscolumns table for a user table?Thank you

Service Broker Not Working For Restored Databases (SQL 2000 Databases Restored On 2005)
Jan 24, 2006I just restored my SQL server 2000 database on the SQL server 2005. after this i ran the Service broker sample ("Hello World") on this database by changing the AdventureWorks name to the new database name. The "setup.sql" runs fine. When i run the "SendMessage.sql" i was not getting any rows in the output (The message was not getting inserted into the queue). I checked the Service broker is enabled on this databased using the query "select is_broker_enabled from sys.databases where name = 'newdbname' " It was 1. I even tried the ALTER DATABASE SET ENABLE_BROKER. but it didnt work.
When i tried the sample on a newly created database it worked fine.
Is there any solution to make the restored database to work for service broker.
Thanks

Setting Timeout In ASP.NET Vs Setting Timeout In SQL Server
Oct 22, 2007In my ASP.NET app, I'm executing a stored procedure via a SQLCommand the searches a customer database. I believe the default timeout is 90 seconds. I'm curious of what happens to the SQL Server Stored Procedure after timing out from the ASP.NET application. Does it timeout at the same time or do you have to set up a value in SQL Server?
