How to get table size in a database?

administrator — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 04:54:04 +0000

This query will return size of each table in a sql database. This is a great way to monitor growth of a database and decide what restrictions might be needed to keep the database size from growing out of control. You may want to put a limit on file upload size on a table that might storing documents for example.

SELECT t.NAME AS TableName, p.rows AS TableRowCounts, CONVERT(DECIMAL,SUM(a.total_pages)) * 8 / 1024 AS TotalSpaceMB, CONVERT(DECIMAL,SUM(a.total_pages)) * 8 / 1024 /1024 AS TotalSpaceGB, SUM(a.used_pages) * 8 / 1024 AS UsedSpaceMB , SUM(a.used_pages) * 8 / 1024 / 1024 AS UsedSpaceGB FROM DatabaseName.sys.tables t INNER JOIN DatabaseName.sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id INNER JOIN DatabaseName.sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id INNER JOIN DatabaseName.sys.allocation_units a ON p.partition_id = a.container_id LEFT OUTER JOIN DatabaseName.sys.schemas s ON t.schema_id = s.schema_id WHERE t.is_ms_shipped = 0 AND i.OBJECT_ID > 255 GROUP BY t.Name, s.Name, p.Rows ORDER BY UsedSpaceGB DESC, t.Name

Database Mail Error Failed to initialize sqlcmd library with error number -2147467259

administrator — Wed, 11 Aug 2021 03:29:26 +0000

In this example below the error will occur because the context of the query is running under MSDB when the query is specified without the database name in the query.

The correct query for the above example is:

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail @profile_name ='dbMail', @recipients = 'dharmyog.com@gmail.com', @subject ='Test Email', @body ='Test Email', @query=' select * from [dbo].[vwEmployees] Where EmployeeAge = 25', @attach_query_result_as_file = 1;

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail @profile_name ='dbMail', @recipients = 'dharmyog.com@gmail.com', @subject ='Test Email', @body ='Test Email', @query=' select * from EmployeeDB.dbo.vwEmployees Where EmployeeAge = 25', @attach_query_result_as_file = 1;

This way the stored procedure will execute under the msdb context and the query will execute because the database hierarchy is referenced. So the database name has to be entered in the query.

How to rerun SQL query after delay?

administrator — Thu, 21 Jan 2021 15:27:28 +0000

This sample show how to run the same query with delay. It will keep running the same query with 10 second delay and keep re-executing at least 5 times. Good example to when to use this is when you want to check the status on an on going backup.

Select L.NAME DBName,R.percent_complete as [Progress%] FROM Master.dbo.sysdatabases L Left join sys.dm_exec_requests R on L.DBID=R.Database_ID WHERE percent_complete > 0 raiserror('',0,1) with nowait waitfor delay '00:00:10' GO 15

How to autorecover sql script in ssms?

administrator — Tue, 01 Sep 2020 18:34:34 +0000

Sometimes when SQL Server Management Studio crashes you end up losing your work. Many times it restarts on its own and loads the scripts that were not saved and gives you the option to reopen them. Other times it does not show this option especially when it doesnt auto start ssms after the crash. In this case you can still get your data back if you open the following path:

This is the path for if you have have SSDT version installed for VS2017

Database Backup Percentage Complete Status

administrator — Sat, 29 Aug 2020 05:37:07 +0000

When performing backup with scripts its not easily possible to get the percentage complete of the running backup. This simple script will show status of current running backup on the server.

SELECT L.NAME DBName, R.percent_complete as [Progress%] FROM Master.dbo.sysdatabases L Left join sys.dm_exec_requests R on L.DBID=R.Database_ID WHERE R.Command LIKE '%BACKUP%'

Or you can change the where clause and use the following

SELECT L.NAME DBName, R.percent_complete as [Progress%] FROM Master.dbo.sysdatabases L Left join sys.dm_exec_requests R on L.DBID=R.Database_ID WHERE percent_complete > 0

If no backups are running then the query will return no data.

How to get list of new or modified database objects?

administrator — Sat, 29 Aug 2020 03:28:44 +0000

This simple query tells us if there were any database objects created within the last 24 hours. You can modify the DATEADD parameters to get a larger time span.

select * from sys.objects where create_date > dateadd(D, -1, getdate())

This second query tells us if there were any database objects modified within the last 24 hours. You can modify the DATEADD parameters to get a larger time span.

select * from sys.objects where modify_date > dateadd(D, -1, getdate())
