SP execution inside a set based procedure: nothing

Hi all of you,

I need to recover one Output value from one SP and does not work. Nevertheless, my sp execute in every loop successfully

This is one example (the complete code is boring) just for illustrate my problem:

declare @ni table(id integer, data date)
declare @RandomDate date;

declare @cont integer = 0;

while @cont < 10
begin
insert into @ni(id,data)
select 1,@RandomDate
EXEC utilities.ReturnRandomDate @AlAtzar = @RandomDate

set @cont +=1
end

select * from @ni

SP:

CREATE PROCEDURE [Utilities].[ReturnRandomDate](@AlAtzar date = '2016-02-21' OUTPUT)
AS
BEGIN
SELECT convert(date,dateadd(day, (abs(CHECKSUM(newid())) % 23650) * -1, getdate() - 3000))
END

How to configure automated email alert in SQL Server 2012 based on query results

March 27, 2016, 6:31 am
$
0

I need to identify and be notified when records in my SQL Server 2012 R2 database table meet a specific condition. For example, when a record in the trans_record table has any entries in the “status” column of “error”.

The query is simple enough and I have setup an SSIS package to query the table with the appropriate “where” clause. I followed this with a SQL Agent job to run the SSIS package daily at 7:00am and export the offending records to a flat text file.

What I need to understand is how I can be emailed only when a record is found with the query performed by the SSIS package. It appears that the SSIS package will always create a file regardless if any records are found.

I see that SQL Server supports Alerts and defined Operators to be notified, but I don’t understand how to be notified only if my query returns a valid record.

How can I set this up in SQL Server?

Thanks

How to refresh only scheme and not the data.

Hi

Cloud someone please let me know how to refresh only scheme and not the data?
As per my knowledge, the normal refresh will replace the destination data with source data.
If I do only schema refresh, the data will be removed and only table’s structure will be created.
Please let me know if it is not correct.Also,please let me know the diffenece between these two.

Thanks in advance.

Setting output variables in a SP by using Sql Functions

Hi all of you,

I have got one SP which returnS one random date.


I've tried to do this using UDF but it seems newid() function is not allowed there.

The last line does not work. I think it would be clearer than the first one, what do you think?

ALTER PROCEDURE [Utilities].[ReturnRandomDate](@AlAtzar date = '2016-02-21' OUTPUT)

ALTER PROCEDURE [Utilities].[ReturnRandomDate](@AlAtzar date = SELECT GETDATE() OUTPUT

Source sp code:

CREATE PROCEDURE [Utilities].[ReturnRandomDate](@AlAtzar date = '2016-01-21' OUTPUT)
AS
BEGIN
SELECT convert(date,dateadd(day, (abs(CHECKSUM(newid())) % 23650) * -1, getdate() - 3000))

END

EXEC Utilities.ReturnRandomDate

- What is the difference between logical and physical reads? Does tempDB come into picture? And can high logical reads cause performance issues?

DBCC CHECKDB issue in Azure. - MSSQL_DBCC22". Operating system error 80: "80(The file exists.)".

I have an issue running DBCC CHECKDB on one of our SQL Server Azure wm's .

DBCC CHECKDB are runing just fine on all databases on the server except one, which fails with the error below.

The one database that fails has it's data files in Azure premium storage (https:\xxx.xxxxx.blob.core.windows.net\xxxx), the rest is on classic storage, as is the Azure VM server itself.

While running the DBCC Check db against the failing database, it seems that the DBCC snapshot file generated, does not get cleaned up correctly which I believe to be the cause of the error.(https://xxxxxxxx.blob.core.windows.net/xxxx/xxxxxxxmdf_MSSQL_DBCC22) The file can be see from the Azure storage interface. 

 I cannot find a solution for this, so any help will be much appreciated! 

Error message:----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi All,

Need some help.

Today across a issue. Using SQL Server 2012 SP1 Enterprise Edition. Try to Export SSIS package in SSMS and it throws me an error message saying. "Please create a master key in the database or open the master key in the session before performing this operation."

Any idea why we get this error ????
Adding to it, after having some conversation with IT team, came to know that the Server Name has been renamed. But now servernames seems good from the below query.

select @@SERVERNAME, SERVERPROPERTY('servername')
server123   SERVER123

Thanks in advance.

SQL Server Update error message. (Standard 2014 -> Sql Server 2016 RC1)

Good Afternoon,

I am testing a SQL Server Update Path(Standard 2014 -> Sql Server 2016 RC1).

An error popup box occurs on the "Feature Rules" page. The message states "The specified edition upgrade from Standard edition to target Evaluation edition is not supported......"

I did some online research for Sql 2016 upgrade paths. One of the links states "2014 standard" can be upgraded to "2016 standard".

Do I need to wait for a newer released version of SQL 2016 or is there some other reason for the message which prevents the upgrade?

Thanks

Why Can I Connect To Aerver But Not Link To It

This makes no sense to me, so I hope that someone can provide an explanation.

I'm working with databases on several servers via SSMS 2014. I have been able to link to other servers. For my current project, I need to work with data from LanSweeper. I am able to connect to the database on the server, see all the various database objects, do queries, etc.

Since I will need to join data from the LanSweeper database to data in other databases, I went to set it up as a linked database.  I know I gave the right server name and that it is SQL Server.  For security I chose Be made using the login's current security context.  If I read the documentation correctly, that means Windows authentication.  When I hit OK, I get the infamous Logon failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'

HELP...please.

TIA,

John

Hope everybody is doing good.

Could you help me out to fix the following issue ?

we have created a maintenance plan followed with verify backup integrity for backing up the databases.

But the job is getting failed with the following error at times.

Error:

Executing the query "declare @backupSetId as int

select @backupSetId =..." failed with the following error: "The backup or restore was aborted.
VERIFY DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.".
Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or
connection not established correctly.

-----End---

surprisingly, after completion of backup for all databases the job is getting hung and throwing the above error when it is aborted.

your response on this is greatly appreciated.

I have kept searching for the answers of this problem on the internet. But I can only found the answers of getting the total number of pages for a database. What I want to know is to list the address and time stamp of all pages for a database. I think there might be a DMV which stores those information but I can not figure out which DMV it is. Anyone can help?

SQL Server on Hyper-V performance issue

March 29, 2016, 11:15 pm

Hi,
We've switched to using Hyper-V as our primary virtualization engine for hosting VM's about 3-4 years ago (switching from VMWare) and haven't had any noticable issues since then.

But now a hosted customer noticed performance issues when running SQL-server on the virtualized Machines, I don't think this is a "new" problem but no one ever "complained" about performance so therefore we haven't done any real testing and measuring of this particular problem before.

When testing this on the SQL-server we are running a normal Select query selecting 1 000 000 rows from a table.

If the VM has 1 vCPU this Query takes about 15-17 seconds, but if we add processors (2,4,8 doesn't matter) it takes about 27-29 second, no other changes done.

We have tried just about anything we can think of to speed up the Query with multiple vCPU's, but no matter what we do we get the same result, 1 vCPU is always a lot faster than using more cpu's.

The VHDx files of the VM are placed on SSD disk in our SAN and we get good Iops (about 60-70 000) so there should be no problem there.

The SQL version is 2014 Standard with all hotfixes and patches applied, the database doesnt really seem to matter either since we have tested in several different db's. We also tried to move the VM to a new host where it was the only VM without luck.

Anyone seen the same problem and possibly have a solution or idea of what to do now??

Hi All,

I have a SQL 2008 cluster running with 2 nodes, and what I have recently noticed is that a snapshot creation code has been failing. I checked the cluster dependency property on the SQL instance

and I noticed that the dependency wasn’t set on the backup drive, I took SQL offline, set the dependency and then brought it back online and yet the create snapshot code doesn’t work.

Please note that the drive is a mount point.

Any ideas please
