How Do I Calculate Current Total Bytes Per Row Used
Feb 16, 2001We are close to exceeding the Maximum Row size of 8K per row and the CIO asked me "how close are we to reaching the 8K row limit?"
I began by looking at byte requirements for the data types we are using
from the systypes table then I wondered, do the indecie, Foreign Keys and Primary Keys use bytes which must be included in my Calculation for current number of bytes used per Row.
Question: How do I calculate Current total number of bytes used per row.
SMALLINT: VALUE: 12 OR 12000 WHAT WILL THE ACTUAL SIZE: 2 BYTES OR ?
Aug 28, 2007Sql Server has many data types.
For Example:
smallint
Integer data from -2^15 (-32,768) through 2^15 - 1 (32,767). Storage size is 2 bytes.
I want to know that
If it contains like 0 or 100 or 1000 or -200 or -2000 or more or less.
What will its actual size?
2 bytes or change with the value.
Please also mention the reference with your answer. if available.

SqlCEParameter With SQLDBType.Binary Won't Allow Size To Be Set &&> 510 Bytes
Nov 1, 2006Here is my code:
Dim oParameter As New System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeParameter("@pMyParameter", SqlDbType.Binary, 3000)
If you set a watch on this object, the size is set back to 510. I have tried resetting the size back to 3000 after construction using oParameter.Size, but it doesn't change from 510. If the command is executed using ExecNonQuery, this causes the bytes to get cut off at 510 bytes and returns the error: Byte array truncation to a length of 510.
Can I insert data into SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition, into a field of data type binary(3000) using .NET CF 2.0 via SqlServerCe objects?
Thanks for any help.

VERY Wide Rows, 8060 Bytes Row Size Limit && SPARSE Columns
Apr 23, 2008Hi,
Im trying to create a VERY wide table, with 1,000 columns of type varchar(MAX), nullable.
The CREATE TABLE statement (both in SQL 2005 & 2008), gives the following warning:
Warning: The table "WIDE_TABLE" has been created, but its maximum row size exceeds the allowed maximum of 8060 bytes. INSERT or UPDATE to this table will fail if the resulting row exceeds the size limit.
When I insert data into the table, filling all columns with small, 10-byte string values, I get the following error:
Msg 50000, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_pivot, Line 118
Cannot create a row of size 15034 which is greater than the allowable maximum of 8060.
Id like to verify this observation: each row is created with 2000 bytes of offset data (2 byte * 1000 columns), 125 bytes for null bitmap (1000 columns / 8 bits) and some more wasted? row information. This leaves less than 6K for the data itself. But since not all columns can fit within the page, forwarding pointers in the row need to be created, 24 byte per column, which very quickly add up to more than 8K, thus the error. So the 8K limit is met for much less columns than the max 1024 column restriction.
Furthermore, in SQL 2008, SPARSE columns will not solve the problem (maybe save some metadata? space in case the columns are null, but if not, Im with the same problem again, or even worse, since now each value takes more storage space. The max 30,000 columns in 2008 is only for cases where the column values are really sparse
Is this the right observation? if so, is there a workaround besides splitting to multiple tables?
Thanks,
Aviv.

Transact SQL :: Error - Maximum Row Size Exceeds Allowed Maximum Of 8060 Bytes
Sep 12, 2015I have some code I build 2 weeks ago which I’ve been running daily but it’s suddenly stopped working with the following error.
“The table "tbl_Intraday_Tmp" has been created, but its maximum row size exceeds the allowed maximum of 8060 bytes. INSERT or UPDATE to this table will fail if the resulting row exceeds the size limit” When I google this there seems to be a related to tables with vast numbers of columns.
My table tbl_Intraday_tmp is relatively small. It has 7 columns. 1 of varchar(5), 3 of decimal(9,3) and 2 of decimal(18,0). The bit I’m puzzled with is it was working and stopped.
I don’t recall changing anything but I wouldn’t rule that out. I ‘ve inspected the source files and I don’t believe they have changed either.

@FileName varchar(50),
@Path varchar(50),
@SqlCmd varchar(1000)

Convert Image Column's Bytes To Int's
May 14, 2008Hi I have an image column (Spectrum) in a Table (ParticleEDS) which is populated with an array of a bunch of INT32's (4 bytes each)
Using TSQL is there any way that I can read each 4 bytes (convert this to an INT) and return this data for a given record (based on ParticleEDSID).
I know that there are 8192 byes (2048x4 bytes) that make up the image column.
I would like the output of the query/stored procedure to be:
Value
------------
1 2342
2 2334
3 3343
.....
2048 1001
I am thinking that the way to do this would be to convert every 4 bytes into an int and create a temporaty table with an integer column which I populate with int and then run a select * on this temporary table.
Does anybody have any pointers on how I can start to do this?

How To Calculate Average Row Size Of A Record.
Apr 22, 2008I want to calculate average row size of a record. By based on this i want to add some more columns into an existing table. Here is my table structureCREATE TABLE patient_procedure( proc_id int IDENTITY(1,1) CONSTRAINT proc_id_pri_key PRIMARY KEY, patient_id int NULL, surgeon_name varchar(40) NOT NULL, proc_name varchar(20) , part_name varchar(30), wth_contrast int , wthout_contrast int , wth_wthout_contrast int, xray_part varchar(60), arth_area varchar(30), others varchar(30) , cpt varchar(20) , procedure_date smalldatetime NOT NULL, mraloperrun varchar(20),CONSTRAINT patientid_foreign_key FOREIGN KEY(patient_id) REFERENCES dbo.patient_information (Patient_id)) Now i got a requirement that i have to add two more procedures with different columns.The columns overall size is 195 bytes.I can place those two procedures as seperate tables. I dont want to do that becuase of front end requirements.Here the problem is when the user enters these two procedures information remaining fields will store the null value. I know that when we store the null values into corresponding columns min of 1 byte will be occupied. Please suggest me that shall i include these columns into the above table. If i add these columns is performance will be decreased or not. Waiting for valuable suggestions.

JPGs Added To Image Column Truncated At 1024 Bytes
Mar 26, 2007I have a table in a SQL 2005 database that is designed to hold JPG product images for a website. Here is the schema:
create table dbo.Eur_RMISWebInterface_Staging_ProductImages(
product_code varchar(12) not null,
image_order smallint not null,
colour_identifier varchar(10) not null,
image_data image not null,
constraint PK_Eur_RMISWebInterface_Staging_ProductImages primary key clustered (
product_code,
image_order
)
)
Product images are inserted into the table from a database on a remote SQL 2000 server. Here is the script that does that (uses dynamic SQL):
set @SQLCmd = '
set xact_abort on
begin transaction
delete Eur_RMISWebInterface_Staging_ProductImages
insert Eur_RMISWebInterface_Staging_ProductImages (
product_code,
image_order,
colour_identifier,
image_data
)
exec "' + @RMISServerName + '".' + @RMISDatabaseName + '.dbo.Eur_RMISWebInterface_GetProductImagesForWeb ' + convert(varchar(3), @PortalID) + ', ' + @Locale_LCID + '
commit transaction'
execute (@SQLCmd)
About 500 images, each about 20KB, are transferred at a time. Here is the problem - when this script is run manually, all the images are inserted completely. When the script is run as part of a job (that has several other steps), the job step completes successfully and all the images are inserted, but every single one is truncated to the first 1024 bytes of the image. What this ends up looking like on the website is a a narrow strip of image instead of a complete image. Here are some other observations:
- When I changed the "Eur_RMISWebInterface_GetProductImagesForWeb" SP to only return 1 product image instead of 500 it still failed
- The owner of the job is the same Windows user as the user I have been running the script manually as
- I have tried changing the datatype of image_data from image to varbinary(max) but it made no difference
What could possibly be going on???
Sum Of Column Of Blob Type

Dec 7, 2005We are planning hardware purchases (more is better). One of our databases is 131 gigs in size and has 45 gigs of 'space available'. I'm not a very experienced SQL Server person, but this seems like quite a bit of 'space available'
1) Is there a way to regulate the amount of 'space available'?
2) are there any rules of thumb for how 'space available' there should be?
Appreciate any feedback or help.

I have encountered a query which takes lots of temp tablespace and it fails later.
Initially the temp tablespace was 28GB, we made it to 56 GB but still it fails.
There is just this single process that is running on database.
I tried putting index on the table in query ,but no help.
Can suggest a solution to get size of temp space required or reduce its usage?

As MS suggest to calculate the temp db file size and growth rate we need to monitor the perform counters Free Space in Tempdb (KB) and Version Store Size (KB) in the Transactions object.
basic formula: [Size of Version Store] = 2 * [Version store data generated per minute] * [Longest running time (minutes) of your transaction

Still I am confused in calculating the size , My perform counter gives me data as such

Version Cleanup rate (KB/s) 53422320

SQL Server 2012 :: Calculate Number Of Groups And Group Size With Multiple Criteria
Jun 15, 2015I need to calculate the last two columns (noofgrp and grpsize) No of Groups (count of Clientid) and Group Size (number of clients in each group) according to begtim and endtime. So I tried the following in the first Temp table
GrpSize= count(clientid) over (partition by begtime,endtime) else 0 end
and in the second Temp Table, I have
select
,GrpSize=sum(grpsize)
,NoofGrp=count(distinct grpsize)
From Temp1
The issue is for the date of 5/26, the begtime and endtime are not consistent. in Grp1 (group 1) all clients starts the session at 1030 and ends at 1200 (90 minutes session) except one who starts at 11 and end at 1200 (row 8). For this client since his/her endtime is the same as others, I want that client to be in the first group(Grp1). Reverse is true for the second group (Grp2). All clients begtime is 12:30 and endtime is 1400 but clientid=2 (row 9) who begtime =1230 but endtime = 1300. However, since this client begtime is the same as the rest, I wan that client to be in the second group (grp2) My partition over creates 4 groups rather than two.
Table Size - Trying To Find Out Space Used

When I try that, I get some of the tables displayed with the info I want, but I can't see them all and can't scroll down beyond the first 22 tables in the database.
The second suggestion:
exec sp_msforeachtable @command1="print '?'",@command2="sp_spaceused '?'"
It says "command copleted successfully, but where does the output to this go ?? Is there something other than "print" I should use ?
The grid pane is empty.
