This blog is in continuing to use the default values. Earlier this week I wrote a blog which talked about the failure of Create Database Command. Let see in this blog post how we can solve the error 3201.
While working on the reproduction of the issue, I changed the parameters and later realized that the backup database command was also failing. If you rely on the default values for folders that don’t exist, this will raise an error message as shown below.
Talking and exploring In-Memory topics in SQL Server 2014 has been interesting to me. When I wrote the blog around table variable not being just an In-Memory structure, one of my course listener (SQL Server 2014 Administration New Features) pinged me on twitter to ask, if In-Memory OLTP was really In-Memory? Wouldn’t SQL Server like to swap the data or memory data to pagination file when there is memory pressure? I told them the concept of In-Memory is that data always resides in memory and the reason for a feature name “In-Memory OLTP”. Let us see how we can fix errors related to insufficient system memory.
When I wrote my previous blog post on SQL SERVER – Finding Tables Created Last Week – DBA Tip, lesser did I know something as simple as this can become such an interesting topic of conversation. I have been overwhelmed with the number of emails I have got in the past week to know more about such real life scenarios. Having said that, a number of you also asked are there a much easier way to look at the same inside SQL Server Management Studio.
Earlier I had written a blog about SQL SERVER – Beginning In-Memory OLTP with Sample Example which covers the basics of working with In-Memory OLTP. Though that post gets you started, one of my colleague asked me if there was an easier way to identify In-Memory Tables when working with SQL Server Management Studio. As a follow up I wrote another blog post over here where I demonstrate the same with images and query over here: SQL SERVER – Filter In-Memory OLTP Tables in SSMS. In this blog post we will learn about – Identify and Filter In-Memory Optimized Tables.
I have previously written about how to find the top and bottom value of column in SQL Server but recently I got a very interesting question based on the same blog post. The question was how to find the last value from Column in Google Spreadsheet. I find it very interesting and attempted to find the solution in Google Spreadsheet.
SQL Server’s version of Transact SQL provides the ability to create and leverage temporary objects for use within the scope of your query session or batch. There are many reasons why you may decide to use temporary objects and we will explore them later in this article. In addition to meeting various data-tier requirements, temporary objects can also be beneficial from a performance and scalability perspective.
Last week I wrote a blog post about SQL SERVER – List the Name of the Months Between Date Ranges. It was written in the response to the question – How to list the name of the months between two date ranges? In the original blog post, I made a small error, hence I corrected that in the follow up blog post. Thanks to Sanjay Monpara for helping me correct the error. There are some amazing comments received in the original blog posts.
