I'm not sure that I fully understand what you are looking for but if you
want to view data in a temp table you just run a select like on every
other regular table - e.g. SELECT column1, column2... FROM #YourTempTable

If you create a temp table (denoted by a single # sign) you can query the
data within the table ONLY if you query it on the same connection that
created the table (and the thing that created the table was not a stored
procedure that you just ececuted).
I am not sure what you mean when you say you want to see how many # tables
were created "at instalation time." Installation of what?

How to script Sprocs permissions in Management Studio?

I am dissapointed that script options are missing in Management Studio. I
never understand why a good feature goes away in a newer version.
Is there any way to script the permissions for stored procedures?
John DalbergDepends on how you script them. If you select the stored
procedure and select "Script Stored Procedure" you won't get
the permissions. If you go from the database level, Tasks
and Generate SQL Scripts (or whatever other ways there are
to invoke the Generate SQL Server Scripts Wizard, you have
more options in the scripting. If you script the stored
procedures for the database and select to include object
level permissions, the grants will be scripted with the
stored procedures.

Not in SQL Server 2005. I found out later that it can be done at the
database level. Still not as convenient as pre 2005.

How to script Sprocs permissions in Management Studio?

how to script security permissions?

I have a very large table that is refreshed periodically. Since it's
so big, I do a 'drop table', 'create table', 'create index' then a bulk
load. It's much faster than doing a 'delete from'. I also do a
'shrinkdb' as part of this process.

The problem, however, is that the user permissions are also dropped in
this process. So, how can I script the user permissions? For example,
how do I give 'MyUser' select access to 'MyTable' in 'MyDB'? Many
thanks!!

So why not do a TRUNCATE TABLE instead? This is a minimally logged
operation, and you maintain indexes, permissions etc.

I guess you can do this with DMO, if you want to do this programmatically.
However, I have not used DMO myself.

Although keeping indexes is sometimes a good thing, it's also sometimes
beneficial to drop all indexes before the truncate and only add them
back when all the data loading is complete.

Of course, it depends on how the data loading is being managed (in my
case, I happen to be loading 3 1/2 million records from a non-R DBMS,
and having to do it one row at a time - I'd rather not have the indexes
rebuilt for every insert)

Damien|||Thank you, everyone. I did not know about the TRUNCATE TABLE option.
But accomplishing this objective using DROP TABLE, CREATE TABLE, and so
on, has required that I learn many other SQL Server methods, so it's
good for me. I spent more time developing the solution but SQL Server
doesn't care one way or the other and both methods still get the job
done in the same amount of time. So, once again, thanks everyone for
your input!

How to script Role Memebers

Is there any way to script Databse Role(s) and Role Memeber(s) using SQL-SMO?

The workaround i am using here is, set the server connection execution mode to CaptureSQL and and use AddMemeber method while looping through Server.Database.Roles.EnumMemebers. This creates a string collection of sp_addrolemembers. (let me know if someone wants to have a look at this code)

I couldn't even figureout how to do this using SQL Server Management Studion. When i script the entire database using SQL Server Mangement Studio, i dont see sp_addrolemember statements.

Am I missing something?

Try something like this:

Dim scrDBScript As Scripter
Dim objSMOObjects(100) As SqlSmoObject
Dim intObjCount As Integer
intObjCount = 0

Dim srv As Server
Dim srvConn As ServerConnection
srv = New Server("MyServer")
srvConn = srv.ConnectionContext
srvConn.LoginSecure = True

Dim db As Database
Dim objRoles As DatabaseRoleCollection
Dim objRole As DatabaseRole

db = srv.Databases("AdventureWorks")
objRoles = db.Roles
For Each objRole In objRoles
objSMOObjects(intObjCount) = objRole
intObjCount += 1
Next

scrDBScript = New Scripter(srv)
scrDBScript.Options.FileName = "c:\DBScript.sql"
scrDBScript.Options.IncludeHeaders = True
scrDBScript.Options.AppendToFile = True

ReDim Preserve objSMOObjects(intObjCount - 1)
scrDBScript.Script(objSMOObjects)

This code will create a script of each role defined in the AdventureWorks database. Hope that helps.

|||

Allen, Thanks for replying on this! However, this code only genrates sp_addrole statements. What I am looking for is to script rolememebers (sp_addrolememeber).

Any thoughts?

|||

Not sure if this works, but if it doesn't I think you'll get the idea:

db = srv.Databases("AdventureWorks")
objRoles = db.Roles
For Each objRole In objRoles
Dim colMembers As System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection
Dim strMember As String
colMembers = objRole.EnumMembers
For Each strMember In colMembers
objSMOObjects(intObjCount) = objRole
intObjCount += 1
Next
Next

The EnumMembers method of the DatabaseRole object returns a string collection with the members of the role in the collection.

How to script permissions?

I'm using SQL Server 2000. I have an application that uses three
databases. Currently, when a new user is added (Windows Integration),
I go to each database, create the login then go to each spoc and give
that user rights.
Is there a faster more efficient way to do this? For example, I have
maybe two or three scripts (for various permission levels) that I can
drop in a user name and it does everything?
Thanks,
BrettYou could probably use the GRANT statement and dynamic SQL to do the trick.

To be more automated, I'd like to build this process into application

and then start assigned specific permissions to objects in a database?

use this

How to script out my .mdf database I have in Visual Studio?

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Standard. I have an .mdf database inside my Visual Studio "Server Explorer" under "Data Connections."

How do I script out this database, including the stored procedures in it? In other words, I want to export a SQL script that will create this database.

I'm very much a newbie when it comes to working with database management. I thought I created this .mdf inside my local install of SQL Server 2005 Express, but maybe I did it somehow inside Visual Studio in the Server Explorer. When I open up SQL Server Management Studio Express I don't see this database. I did locate the .mdf on my local C drive but I haven't been able to get Mgt Studio to open it.

Hi hapax_legomenon,

I use the Database Publishing Wizard to script my databases. You can select schema, data, schema and data, and be selective about which database objects you want and don't want. Microsoft wrote it, it's free, and on my list of "must-have" utilities. Here's the URL:

In your SQL management studio you right click on the database node and select "Tasks-->Generate Scripts..." This will start a wizard for you.

|||

Tasks->Generate Scripts will only generate a script to re-create the database. It will not create any table, let alone the table data.

Download the Microsoft SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard. This will script the entire database for you.

Hi Jos,

Through wizard it asks for database name. But I don't have any database created on SQLServer Management Studio. I just have .mdf and .ldf files.

How can I create sqlscript using those files?

You have to first import the database in sql server. Right click on databases and select Attach database.

How To Script Jobs In SQL Server ?

How to create SQL script out of job in SQL Server ?
I know there is a way thru EM, but is there any stored procedure or any function that will return the SQL script of any job.
I want to script all jobs on my server just as a part backing up mechanism.
Thanks
Decasto.After starting Profiler, going into EM and scripting a job I noticed two procs being called...

msdb..sp_help_jobstep @.job_id = XXX
and
msdb..sp_help_jobschedule @.job_id = XXX

soooo I suppose you could step through msdb..sysjobs and process each job you find with one or both of the above procs.

Usually, when you add an IDENTITY column you will want to add a unique
or primary key constraint on that column. Although that's not
mandatory, IDENTITY itself won't prevent duplicates in all
circumstances because the auto-generated value can be overridden or the
seed can be changed. Also, IDENTITY is typically referenced by a
foreign key, for which a constraint is required.
Depending on your requirements you can add a constraint like this:

It means that it is in a foreign key relationship to another table.

How to scheule job to run last day of the month

What are the settings to get a sql server job to always run the last day of the month? This should be quite easy!

Thanks!

SQL2000?

if so,

on the schedule tab of the job, edit the schedule, or create a new one... on the schedule type, select recurring, then click the change button on the lower right hand side.

In the Occurs section, change to monthly. Then in the monthly section that you will see to the right select the lower radio button and change the first drop down list box to "Last", the second to "Day" of every 1 month.

Set the time, and away you go...

|||Thanks! This would make a nice addition to EM Help!

How to schedule Usage Based Optimization on a regular basis?

I want to perform Usage Based Optimization on given partitions automatically (not using the wizard). Is it possible to schedule this task and how?

I don't know of anyway "out of the box" that this can be done. You could write your own program using AMO to facilitate this, but there are a couple of issues that come to mind.

1) You should not need to continuously re-run the usage based optimizations unless the useage patterns are changing significantly. Optimizing a cube for a given usage pattern only needs to be done once. Once the aggregations have been designed they will be used every time the cube is reprocessed (or specifically when the index processing is done)

2) There is an issue with UBO in that it overwrites previously designed aggregations (see this thread http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=806335&SiteID=1) so your performance could possibly regress, rather than incrementally improve, if you ran it unattended.

How to schedule to run Integration Packages using SQL Agent/Job?

Hi Folks,

I deploying a couple of integration packages which needs to be run sequentially. Currently, I quite puzzled how come i cannot run them as a SQL Agent job. It always fail with "Executed as user: Servername\Administrator. The package execution failed. " But if I had put import these integration packages into the SQL Server 2005 Integration Services FileSystem, it does run but i need promptly as there is a dialog requesting whether to execute the packages. Is there a way to automate the running of these packages through SQL agent. ? Pls help need to get it up and running asap. Thanks first.

Yes there is. Most problems experienced when using SQL Agent to run packages are down to the package being run as a different user. Is that what you are doing?

-Jamie

|||Hi Garynkill23,

This could be due to the ProtectionLevel setting for the individual packages - that's my guess.

By default, these are set to EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey. This means as long as you personally execute the packages, your credentials are picked up and the packages execute in your security context. This is true even if you're connected to a remote machine, so long as you're using the same AD credentials you used when you built the packages. Does this make sense?

When the job you created executes, it runs under the SQL Agent Service logon credentials.

My understanding of the "Sensitive" in EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey is most likely flawed, but I cannot find a way to tell my SSIS package "hey, this isn't sensitive so don't encrypt it." Although this sometimes gets in the way I like this feature because it keeps me from doing something I would likely later regret. Anyway, my point is the Sensitive label is applied to connection strings and I cannot find a way to un-apply it (and I'm cool with that).

One of the first things an SSIS package tries to do (after validation) is load up configuration file data. This uses a connection, which (you guessed it) uses your first connection string. Since yours are encrypted with your own personal SID on the domain and this is different from the SID on the account running the SQL Agent Service, the job-executed packages cannot connect to the configuration files to decrypt them.

There are a couple proper long-term solutions but the one that makes the most sense is to use the EncryptSensitiveWithPassword Package ProtectionLevel option and supply a good strong password. You will need to supply the password when you set up the job step as well, and this should allow the package to run without needing your security credentials.

Note: You will also need this password to open the packages in BIDS (or Visual Studio) from now on... there's no free lunch.

Hope this helps,

Andy

Andy,

Why do you think that makes most sense? To me, it makes more sense to set ProtectionLevel=DontSaveSensitive and then store all your connection strings in configurations. Personally I think this should be considered best practice - its a matter of opinion of course.

-Jamie

|||

Hi Jamie,

I think the method you advocate (DontSaveSensitive) is great, and perhaps best.

My experience with this question drives my copy-and-paste answer about using a password. Here's what I've seen: Someone starts using SSIS and works through some issues as they scale the learning curve (reading good books and a great blog over at Conchango for help as they go).

Then they move it to a test or integration server, experiment with the job step type until they get a job to run when they right-click the job and click Start Job at Step... So they schedule it to run and wait. The SQL Agent scheduler fires the job and it fails with a "cannot acquire connection" (or similar) error. We know why but it seems completely baffling to them. (It certainly did to me when it first happened!)

What's worse is there's little or nothing in the log (the package cannot make that connection either).

While EncryptWithPassword method works, it also requires folks to keep track of a(nother) password.

I start here mainly because it's the quickest way I can think of to get that package up and running. Everyone understands passwords. I don't claim to be right or even advocating a best practice (at least not yet) - I'm just trying to help SSIS developers get that package running.

I welcome any feedback - from anyone. I'm still learning too! :)

Thanks,

Andy

|||

That all sounds fair enough to me Andy. I'll hold my hand up and say that I always try and drive people towards best practice - and to me that means configurations. As I aluded to, its all subjective.

Good discussion.

I cannot argue with you. I advocate 2-pass (minimum) configurations to consulting clients. But I'm also right there to either implement it myself or show them how to implement it.

As regards to your first message, I am not sure which account i was using Windows Authentication to SQL Server 2005 to run the packages which i kept under the SQL Server 2005 Integration Services - File System section. And I had to run it manually.

Then what should i do so that i can run it under SQL Agent as from what i read it requires a username/password but the packages had been saved under this option "Don't Save any sensitive data". One more question, is there any impact if i save it using this option and put it under maintenance under SQL Server 2005 Integration Services.

As discussed above, if you have Protectionlevel=DontSaveSensitive then you will more than likely have to use configurations.

What do you mean by "put it under maintenance"?

-Jamie

|||

Hi garynkill23,

This is complicated. It touches a lot of moving parts in your SSIS package, SQL Servers, and enterprise domain. There's just no simple and easy explanation. But it is this way for good reason and that reason is to provide security.

I wrote a blog entry that talks about connections between SSIS and SQL Server - if you use a SQL Login to connect to SQL Server. This should also apply to storing credentials for any provider that requires a username and password.

Windows Authentication is simpler and safer provided your SQL Servers use one or more domain accounts for the SQL Agent service. (It also offloads SQL Server connectivity account maintenance to the Help Desk - at no extra charge.) If you use a domain account for the SQL Agent service, your SSIS connection managers can all be configured to use Windows Authentication to connect, and you simply grant the SQL Agent service domain account the access it needs in SQL Server. Does this make sense?

For example: I have a domain account named MyDomain\Andy. I log in as MyDomain\Andy and write an SSIS package that connects to a Dev SQL Server. I use the default ProtectionLevel: EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey. MyDomain\Andy has sufficient privileges on the Dev SQL Server. When I'm done, I can manually execute the package and it succeeds in connecting to the Dev SQL Server.

Next, I deploy the SSIS package to a Prod SQL Server. I create a SQL Agent job with an SSIS step that calls the SSIS package. I schedule the job to run at 2:00 AM. Again, MyDomain\Andy has sufficient privileges in the Prod SQL Server. When I right-click the SQL Agent job I just created, I can select "Start Job at Step..." and the job executes, calls the SSIS package, and both succeed.

What just happened? From the security context point-of-view, MyDomain\Andy just executed this job. This is important. The SQL Agent scheduler did not execute the job. In this scenario, that won't happen until 2:00 AM. Although this was a good test, it was incomplete.

To continue the example, let's assume the SQL Agent service on the Prod SQL Server runs under a domain account named MyDomain\SQLAgentService. When the scheduler fires the job at 2:00 AM, MyDomain\SQLAgentService will try to log into the Prod SQL Server and perform the operations specified in your SSIS package. If it lacks permissions to connect, the SSIS package will fail, causing the SQL Agent job to fail. You will get an error message similar to "failed to acquire connection". The error varies because the permissions granted MyDomain\SQLAgentService vary along with the configuration of the SSIS package:

If Logging is enabled in the SSIS package, it will probably attempt to connect to the logging provider before attempting to connect to a SQL Server - unless you're using a SQL Server logging provider. If it cannot connect to the Logging provider, it cannot log the fact that it encountered an error connecting to the Logging provider.

How to schedule package Continuoulsly?

Hi,

H there,

I'm afraid that 2005 doesn't give you the possibility to launch processes on seconds-basis, so you could do a little vb application where inside a loop and using a Timer..:

Dim pkg As New Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Package

Dim EventsSSIS As Eventos

Dim app As New Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application

while true..

pkg = app.LoadFromSqlServer("msdb\yourpackage", Nothing, Nothing, Nothing)

sResultDts = pkg.Execute(Nothing, Nothing, EventsSSIS, Nothing, Nothing)

stuff..

Public Class Eventos

Implements IDTSEvents

OnPostValidate()

OnPreExecute()

stuff

|||Hi

I have two suggestions:
- you could reorganize your package to use an never-ending for loop, with a ~10 seconds sleep (I would try to do that first, if you have the possibility to modify the package)
- or use a scheduler (sql jobs, or third party software like nncron or cruisecontrol.net to trigger the package execution) - keep in mind that if you have to launch it every 10 seconds, it may end spending more time just starting and stopping compared to the time really used to carry out the transformations...

Is SSIS really what you want here?

SSIS is inherently a batch tool. If you want something more real-time then perhaps BizTalk is what you're after.

-Jamie

|||Although you should have an "end process trigger", I would suggest using a for task, place all your stuff in it and just say while @.endtrigger = 0.

I have had a similar issue with trying to run things every 1 min, 10 sec is a little fast I think. On my server it takes an SSIS job 1 min 34 secs just to START the job. This makes it very hard to say, look for a file over and over, until it finds it.

How to Schedule MSDE Backup

Hi guys,
I have an application that runs on MSDE. I need to back up the database on a
dialy basis. The backup file gets written to this folder (C:\backup) and
then I have found a backup software that will automatically write it to a
DVD+RW, overwriting the previous backup file.
To make the schedule easy I will use 31 DVD+RWs, one for each day of the
month. That way I will always have at least a month worth of backups.
I was hoping that somebody could help me with a small SQL script that will
backup my database from Monday thru Saturday, automatically. Also it'd be
great if the backup file would contain a name and the date of that day.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Hi,
MSDE will not come with GUI. So u have to use SQLMAINT.exe. See the below

A couple of questions re the interface if you don't mind:
1- I don't want to accumulate backups to the same file, since I will be
taking a fresh full backup on a separate DVD+RW everyday. How do I make sure
the backups do not keep appending to the same file day after day? Do I do
that just by leaving the ADD box unchecked, in the backup properties?
2- How can make it so that the backup file contains the day of the backup?

leaving the "add to media" check box unchecked will add the "WITH INIT"
statement to the full backup statement, so that every backup set will be
initialized..

What I mean by that is to have the backup file name include the date the

For tomorrow, "SJDB 09082005.bak"

And so on...

ok, you have to "edit" the backup statement of the generated job's step ...
assuming you are backing up pubs database to C:\ (replace C:\ with the
existing folder you want to backup to), you can provide the file name to
include the current date casting (
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ca-co_2f3o.asp )
GETDATE() function result as required..
the final statement will look like:
DECLARE @.FileName nvarchar(25)
SET @.FileName = 'C:\' + 'pubs ' + CONVERT(varchar(10) , GETDATE() , 110 ) +
'.bak'
BACKUP DATABASE [pubs] TO DISK = @.FileName WITH INIT ,
NOUNLOAD ,
NAME = N'pubs BackUp',
NOSKIP ,
STATS = 10,
NOFORMAT
as regard your date format, I'd prefer the standard ISO format, thats to say
YYYYMMDD (CONVERT using 112 style), as this data format , 20050908 (for
today) is more readable and sorts better then 09082005..
you can go further, in the "advanced tab", and specify you want to "output"
the result of the execution (like standard messages and/or errors, if any)
to a text file.. if you want to, specify a file name (a text file) in the
"Transact-SQL script command options" ->output file
this will output, in case of success, something like
<-->
Job 'BackUp DB ['pubs'] - #08/09/2005 12.25.12#' : Step 1, 'BackUp DB

how to schedule job to run vbscript file

Hi All,
I wrote a vbscript file which copies one table records to another database table. I wrote error handling to send an email if error occurs when copying records from one table to another. I want to schedule a sql job and give this file to execute. Could anyone plz tell me how to schedule sql job which runs vbscript file. i selected ActiveXScript and choose vbscript and gave path. I'm not understanding what the command should be given to run vbscript file. The result of giving path is job is failing.
Any help would be appreciated...plzzzzzzz
thanks
carolThe way I've used the ActiveXScript option in the past is to physciallypaste the VBScript code into the Command textbox. AFAIK you can'ttype in a path.

How to schedule full population of a catalog

Hello all,

Could some kind soul tell me how to schedule a "full population" of a FullText catalog in SQLServer 2005?

The fulltext catalog was created correctly and named "CBizOneCatalog". I want to schedule the full population to run daily at 2am.

I'm no expert, more of a wizard guy, but I can get around the Managment Studio.

Hi Ray,

Do you not see the Full Text Catalog Schedule in wizard?

how to schedule DTS package in sql 2005

Hello,

I am trying to to schedule DTS Package but this message appear .

Message
The job failed. The Job was invoked by User sa. The last step to run was step 1 (1). and this

Message
Executed as user: Computer name\SYSTEM. The package execution failed. The step failed

so how I can schedule DTS Package in sql 2005 .

Do you have logging enabled for this package? if enabled check the log file it should have more detailed information on the error.

The error you have posted is a very generic error from the job agent, and it does not give any information.

Thanks

Sounds like you might have some issues with the account settings. See the following thread for tips on setting up proxies / credentials / jobs etc.

But still the same problem even I did all thing to solve but still can't schedule DTS, but when I see th proparites of the

SQL Server Agent-->Connection and found the sql server connection grayed out and can't select or change it . so may be this is the problem but how to run the agent under sa account .

Assuming you are talking about the connection infromation on the left hand side of the job properties screen, that connection information is how you are currently connected to the sql server. You would need to look at the steps tab and click edit on the step associated with the package you are trying to run. At the top of this screen there will be a place for the step name (i.e. run package x), the type (sql server integration services package) and the run as. You would select the correct proxy name from the run as drop down that ties to your sa account...

How to schedule DBCC INDEXDEFRAG the best way

HI
I would like to optimize indexes on two databases dbA and
dbB. The optimization must be able to be configured by a
non DBA, with a script run after the installation of the
SQL Server and the user applications. The job has to be
scheduled.
Since the requirements are 24*7 access to all tables I
cannot (?)use DBCC REINDEX, which - what I understand -
should give me the best optimization of my existing
indexes regarding diskstructure etc., because it places
locks on the tables while running.
The next best thing must then - to my knowlegde - be DBCC
INDEXDEFRAG. (Note: Update of statistics are handled!)
Unfortunately I have some troubles scheduling DBCC
INDEXDEFRAG using a job.
The index optimization configured by the Maintenance Plan
Wizard uses DBCC REINDEX so that is out of the question,
except if xp_sqlmaint has another swith that can be used
instead of -RebldIdx (I cannot find an "indexdefrag
switch" it in BOL)'
Then I build a script which explicitely mentioned every
table and every index of both dbA and dbB to be optimized.
The script looked like this:
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sysindexes WHERE name
= 'PK_ACT')
DBCC INDEXDEFRAG ('dbA', [ACT],[PK_ACT])
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sysindexes WHERE name
= 'PK_ACT_ASSOC')
DBCC INDEXDEFRAG ('dbA', [ACT_ASSOC],[PK_ACT_ASSOC])
etc....
Unfortunalty, the script could not be pasted in the
command box of the job step since it migth have been to
long (670 linex approx.)
I of course could place the script externally in the file
system and have a call to osql.exe scheduled, but I would
rather have the DBCC INDEXDEFRAG statement:
- placed "internally" in the SQL Server rather than in the
file system.
- be able to make a call to DBCC INDEXDEFRAG without
having to specify each and every table/index to be
optimized, but - in the same way that DBCC REINDEX are
handled by the Maintenance Plan Wizard - just
specify: "these are the databases I want to process, now
do it for me!"
I captured and tweaked a script (bottom of message) to
setup the maintenance plan and job it runs okay, but with
DBCC REINDEX instead of DBCC INDEXDEFRAG:
The interesting part is this:
SET @.strMaintenanceCommand = 'EXECUTE
master.dbo.xp_sqlmaint ''-PlanID ' + convert(varchar
(256),@.MaintenancePlanID) + ' -WriteHistory -RebldIdx
100'''
If only "-RebldIdx" could be replaced with something else.
Could it'

OSQL.EXE is not any more or less "internal" than SQL Server Agent. both are
client applications which logs on to SQL Server and executes SQL commands.
> If only "-RebldIdx" could be replaced with something else.
> Could it'
Xp_sqlmaint is basically just a wrapper around sqlmaint.exe, where the
sqlmaint.exe logs on to SQL Server and execute the commands as specified by
the command-line parameters. Unfortunately, there's no command-line
parameter which makes the exe execute DBCC INDEXDEFRAG commands (to the best
of my knowledge, supported by Books Online).
My suggestion is that you write a stored procedure which has first a cursor
that uses the sysobjects or INFORMATION_SCHEM.TABLES to for each table in a
cursor. Inside this cursor, you have another cursor (another loop) where you
use sysindexes and loop each index. Inside this second loop, you now have
both table and index name, so you can construct and execute the DBCC
INDEXDEFRAG command. Just make sure that you in the cursor definition
exclude system tables, statistics etc (use functions such as OBJECTPROPERTY,
INDERPROPERTY etc).
You can probably write this as an sp_ and put it in master. Then have your
own table in which you store the database name for the databases you want to
defrag (write a simple UI if this need to be configurable for an end-user).
Then in your job, you have a cursor which loop this table with database
names in a cursor (having dbname in a variable, @.db), and execute:
EXEC @.db..sp_DefragAllTable --or whatever you called the proc

How to schedule batch execution

Hello,
I have a pretty big batch that I need to execute on schedule basis. I alters
several views, then creates a table and updates this table using these
modified views:
ALTER VIEW vuMonthlySalesOpenOrds

SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT CAST(CUSNO AS varchar(6)) CUST_NBR,
MTD_Open_USD=CAST(Sum(([QUANO]-[QUANS]+[QUANN])*[ACTSP]) AS numeric(8,

INSERT INTO tbl2003December

What would be the best way to schedule this batch execution? Can I create a
SP that would include all batch statements?
I tried to use this model that works well for me:
CREATE PROC dbo.uspSaveRandomSeal
@.sTable varchar(25)
AS
DECLARE @.SQLx NVARCHAR(1024)
SET @.SQLx = N'
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sysobjects WHERE name= ''' +
@.sTable + N''' AND type=''U'')
DROP TABLE pafo.' + @.sTable+ N'
SELECT dbo.vuRandomSeal.*
INTO pafo.'+@.sTable+N'
FROM dbo.vuRandomSeal'
EXEC sp_ExecuteSQL @.SQLx
but I'm getting too many errors, and I'm not sure whether I'm doing it
right.
I would appreciate your suggestions.
Thank you,
--
Peter AfoninI'm not sure I 100% understand the question? Yes, SP's are a good way to
manage batches of work. Also consider DTS and SQL Agent.
What are the errors you're getting?

Dont go for procedure, instead save the contents in to a .SQL file .
Then create a .BAT file with
OSQL -Uuser -Ppassword -Sserver -ic:\act.sql -oc:\act.out
Then schedule the batch using SQL Agent job with type as "Operating system
command".
