I just upgraded my sql2000 server (3gb Ram,2 x2.4ghz p4xeon processors) to sql2005 64 bit (4gb ram,1 x dual core 2.0 xeon processor) The single processor is supposed to be faster than the previous dual processors combined.
The problem is now I am having major performance problems, the queries are lagging pretty badly intermittently.
What steps should I take to resolve this? I am planning on upgrading to 8gb of RAM tonight or tommorow as a 'throwing hardware at this problem without really knowing what I'm doing approach.'
I am not very good with perfmon, but if you want any stats from there please let me know. I'm googling now what I should be checking for.
I can't figure out why its actually running worse, these problems got worse after I set a maintenance plan to run last night which did backups, reindex all the stuff etc... It failed after 2 hours and I woke up to horrible performance this morning.
Hi, I am new to database admin. Actually, I really have no experience what so ever. My boss has asked me to do some tests on our sql server to find bottlenecks or whatever is causing our server to respond so slowly.
Any help would be, ugh helpful.
I am loking for tools or information that will help troubleshoot any problems with the ms sql server 2k. I have tried sql profiler, but I found myself lost, not knowing what to look for.
I've gotten a request to tune some sql for a report. The actual SQL is pretty long so I won't bother posting it, but I was hoping that someone had a good website or ebook on advanced techniques for tuning sql in SQL Server. -Kyle
Does anyone have some more detailed information about how Oracle and MSimplement / allow Tuning on Oracle 10g and SQL Server 2005 and thedifferences between them?Which of them, In a deep comparison about it, allow better tuning andwhy.Regards,Marcio Evangelista
I am looking for an useful sql server 2005 performance tuning book. i have been searching for a real nice book as i m going to start my job from next month in a financial domain with one of the requirement as sql server 2005 performance tuning.so i m looking forward a book which can help me doing well at my workplace. Any suggestions and links appreciated in advance .
I am looking to improve the performance of my sql server databases.
I currently have a dual location system, the database server setup is basically a quad xeon with 4gb at my office and a double xeon with 4gb at a remote webhosting location. There are separate application/web/intranet servers at each site. The two databases servers are replicated with the local server publishing to the remote server.
The relational database holds circa 26 million records, growing by a volume of 10,000 per day, there are approximately 50,000 queries performed per day.
My theory is that the replication of the two databases is causing a slowdown; despite fast network connections (averaging 200ms between servers) the replication seems to place a large load on the local server. Would it be sensible to replicate to a second local server and then replicate to the remote server, placing any burden on the second server?
I am planning to upgrade the local server to a high capacity 4+ cpu 64bit server, my problem is that although I have noticed a slow down in performance over time, I am unsure how to go about measuring and quantifying this in order to diagnose the bottlenecks and ensure that investing in a new server would be worthwhile. Where would one be best advised to start this project?
I am new to SQL Server 2000. I am eager to learn what factors/parameters are key for obtaining good retrieval performance of SQL Server 2000 (prompt response to user query).
I recall that someone told me that a recordset with asOpenStatic cursor type has higher speed than that of a recordset with other cursor types.
Is this true or false. Are there really some key parameters for perfomance tuning .
Hello, we currently have our database (MSSQL 2005) on our web server however to do increased traffic and business we are now moving our database to its own server. I was wondering if anyone here knew of some good ways to setup/tune Windows Server 2003 and SQL 2005 for best performance. MSSQL will be the only application running on the server and want to make sure it is as fast as possible! Thanks in advance!!!
I am doing performance tuning of SP/Query in Dev-Test environment.
I found that SQL Server caches plan between successive executions.
So if I test/execute SP 10 times, after 1st or 2nd execution, SQL server will pull-up plan-info from CACHE...Not from SQL SERVER Or Database...
Means i am not getting correct answer...
I found this 2 commands:
DBCC FREEPROCCACHE
DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS
But they say that executing above command might interfere/bother other people executing other query/sp on this server.
They also say that: Freeing the plan cache causes, for example, a stored procedure to be recompiled instead of reused from the cache. This can cause a sudden, temporary decrease in query performance.
Part of query was using Dynamic-SQL executed with EXEC command.
I replaced that with SP_EXECUTESQL.
How can I start testing of each SP-run with Fresh/Blank CACHE ?
I just upgraded my SQL 2000 server to SQL2005. I forked out all that money, and now it takes 4~5 seconds for a webpage to load. You can see for yourself. It's pathetic. When I ran SQL2000, i was getting instant results on any webpage. I can't find any tool to optimize the tables or databases. And when I used caused SQL Server to use 100% cpu and 500+MB of ram. I can't have this.Can anyone give me some tips as to why SQL 2005 is so slow?
I am unable to install 32-bit SQL Server Integration Services on the server due to something that was left behind by the 64-bit version.
I've uninstalled SQL Server 2005 64-bit and when I try to install the 32-bit version of Integration Services, I get this error: "Failed to install and configure assemblies C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90DTSTasksMicrosoft.SqlServer.MSMQTask.dll in the COM+ catalog. Error: -2146233087 Error message: Unknown error 0x80131501 Error descrition: FATAL: Could not find component 'Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Task.MessageQueueTask.ServCompMQTask' we just installed."
I can't seem to figure out how to resolve this problem with the COM+ and I can't remember if Integration Services is required.
Can't connect to local server instance MSSQLSERVER in SQL Server Management Studio (SQL2005 sp2/Vista).
SQL Server Configuration Manager reports SQL Server2005 services: SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) Running. This would indicate the name of the SQL server is "MSSQLSERVER" correct? I chose "default" instance during the install and that is the name it gave itself.
I tried connecting to the server using the following for the Server Name: MSSQLSERVER and .MSSQLSERVER neither works.
The only thing that works for my installation is just plain "." (no quotes) and nothing else. Can this be correct because I can't find any reference to this. Thanks.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)

Hi Guy's, I have 2 questions:1. When I setup roles, a aspnetdb.mdf file is created automatically. Can I use the same database for any other / new table which is needed in my solution or do I need to create a second database?2. My hosting company does not support mdf files and there is no mdf attach tool available as well. Can someone explain to me how I get the mdf database into the SQL2005 Server and is there anything I need to change afterwards (connection strings etc.)? Thanks a lot in advance
I need to access object from Oracle 9i. I've installed O9i client on sql server and create linked server to O9i db. but when executing

Linked server from SQL2005 to SQL2000 Hi I use the following SQL statements to create a link server. RemoteServerName is an SQL2000 and I am executing this in another machine which is SQL2005.
Though the link server is created successfully, I am not able to se the tables under it so could not query anything.
I devloped this app with vs2005 and SQL 2005 express, everything seems to work fine, when I deploied the app to my web server I got a few different error messages that I worked through but now stuck on this one. i am sure it is something with SQL 2005 server. is there anywhere that has a good check list for doing things right in asp and SQL deployment? here is the error message i am getting from debugging.

Hi, I'd like to host a small website created using VS2005 EE with a company that offers just SQL2000 DB support. My question, can i use the DB created by VS site manager as a DB to the site, if not, is there any alternatives. Thanks.
