  • Using a PowerShell Script to delete old files for SQL Server

    Many clients are using custom stored procedures or third party tools to backup databases in production environments instead of using database maintenance plans. One of the things that you need to do is to maintain the number of backup files that exist on disk, so you don't run out of disk space. There are several techniques for deleting old files, but in this tip I show how this can be done using PowerShell.

  • Chapter 7–Enforced Data Protection

    - by drsql
    As the book progresses, I find myself veering from the original stated outline quite a bit, because as I teach about this more (and I am teaching a daylong db design class in August at http://www.sqlsolstice.com/ … shameless plug, but it is on topic :) I start to find that a given order works better. Originally I had slated myself to talk more about modeling here for three chapters, then get back to the more implementation topics to finish out the book, but now I am going to keep plugging through...(read more)

  • Are ternary operators not valid for linq-to-sql queries?

    - by KallDrexx
    I am trying to display a nullable date time in my JSON response. In my MVC Controller I am running the following query: var requests = (from r in _context.TestRequests where r.scheduled_time == null && r.TestRequestRuns.Count > 0 select new { id = r.id, name = r.name, start = DateAndTimeDisplayString(r.TestRequestRuns.First().start_dt), end = r.TestRequestRuns.First().end_dt.HasValue ? DateAndTimeDisplayString(r.TestRequestRuns.First().end_dt.Value) : string.Empty }); When I run requests.ToArray() I get the following exception: Could not translate expression ' Table(TestRequest) .Where(r => ((r.scheduled_time == null) AndAlso (r.TestRequestRuns.Count > 0))) .Select(r => new <>f__AnonymousType18`4(id = r.id, name = r.name, start = value(QAWebTools.Controllers.TestRequestsController). DateAndTimeDisplayString(r.TestRequestRuns.First().start_dt), end = IIF(r.TestRequestRuns.First().end_dt.HasValue, value(QAWebTools.Controllers.TestRequestsController). DateAndTimeDisplayString(r.TestRequestRuns.First().end_dt.Value), Invoke(value(System.Func`1[System.String])))))' into SQL and could not treat it as a local expression. If I comment out the end = line, everything seems to run correctly, so it doesn't seem to be the use of my local DateAndTimeDisplayString method, so the only thing I can think of is Linq to Sql doesn't like Ternary operators? I think I've used ternary operators before, but I can't remember if I did it in this code base or another code base (that uses EF4 instead of L2S). Is this true, or am I missing some other issue?

  • Microsoft Office Programmability Delivers for Consultants Customers

    I’ve talked with with many dozens of customers here at TechEd 2010 about Office 2010 and shown them a lot of demos at the kiosk. As they arrive I hand them a www.iheartmacros.com t-shirt (hugely popular, btw). Very often the response is: “This is great. I actually do love macros and VBA”. I’m not surprised. In the following 2 minute video clip I talk with Mike Corkery, a consultant and IT trainer who specializes in Office development and training.

  • Using Coalesce

    The coalesce function is used to find the first non-null value. The function takes limitless number of parameters in order to evaluate the first non null. If all the parameters are null, then COALESCE will also return a NULL value.-- hard coded example SELECT MyValue = COALESCE(NULL, NULL, 'abc', 123)The example above returns back [...]

  • Microsoft XNA code sample wont work with blender model

    - by FreakinaBox
    I downloaded this code sample and integrated it into my game http://xbox.create.msdn.com/en-US/education/catalog/sample/mesh_instancing It works with the model that they supplied, but throws and exception whenever I use one of my models. The current vertex declaration does not include all the elements required by the current vertex shader. TextureCoordinate0 is missing. I tried pluging my model into their original source code and same thing. My model is an fbx from blender and has a texture. This is the function that throws the error GraphicsDevice.DrawInstancedPrimitives( PrimitiveType.TriangleList, 0, 0, meshPart.NumVertices, meshPart.StartIndex, meshPart.PrimitiveCount, instances.Length );

  • More Tables or More Databases?

    - by BuckWoody
    I got an e-mail from someone that has an interesting situation. He has 15,000 customers, and he asks if he should have a database for their data per customer. Without a LOT more data it’s impossible to say, of course, but there are some general concepts to keep in mind. Whenever you’re segmenting data, it’s all about boundary choices. You have not only boundaries around how big the data will get, but things like how many objects (tables, stored procedures and so on) that will be involved, if there are any cross-sections of data (do they share location or product information) and – very important – what are the security requirements? From the answer to these types of questions, you now have the choice of making multiple tables in a single database, or using multiple databases. A database carries some overhead – it needs a certain amount of memory for locking and so on. But it has a very clean boundary – everything from objects to security can be kept apart. Having multiple users in the same database is possible as well, using things like a Schema. But keeping 15,000 schemas can be challenging as well. My recommendation in complex situations like this is similar to a post on decisions that I did earlier – I lay out the choices on a spreadsheet in rows, and then my requirements at the top in the columns. I  give each choice a number based on how well it meets each requirement. At the end, the highest number wins. And many times it’s a mix – perhaps this person could segment customers into larger regions or districts or products, in a database. Within that database might be multiple schemas for the customers. Of course, he needs to query across all customers, that becomes another requirement. Share this post: email it! | bookmark it! | digg it! | reddit! | kick it! | live it!

    Does anybody knows of a good application to get it done quickly and efficiently ? I bought Word Cleaner but the results are merely sufficient and I need go over all the generated html files to clean tons of useless injected tags like <strongH</strong<strongell</strong<strongo </strong<emWor</em<emld</em Most of the articles displayed on a website I manage are based on documents written on MS Word by people how has little idea of what are margins for or ordered/unordered lists, foot/end notes etc and I cannot make them use something else. Does anyone has a tip to help me handle those pages more efficiently than going over them to correct and apply my CSS style ? NB: Just for the record, using "Save as HTML DOC" in Word is faaar worst than Word cleaner

  • Loading city/state from SQL Server to Google Maps?

    - by knawlejj
    I'm trying to make a small application that takes a city & state and geocodes that address to a lat/long location. Right now I am utilizing Google Map's API, ColdFusion, and SQL Server. Basically the city and state fields are in a database table and I want to take those locations and get marker put on a Google Map showing where they are. This is my code to do the geocoding, and viewing the source of the page shows that it is correctly looping through my query and placing a location ("Omaha, NE") in the address field, but no marker, or map for that matter, is showing up on the page: function codeAddress() { <cfloop query="GetLocations"> var address = document.getElementById(<cfoutput>#Trim(hometown)#,#Trim(state)#</cfoutput>).value; if (geocoder) { geocoder.geocode( {<cfoutput>#Trim(hometown)#,#Trim(state)#</cfoutput>: address}, function(results, status) { if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) { var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ map: map, position: results[0].geometry.location, title: <cfoutput>#Trim(hometown)#,#Trim(state)#</cfoutput> }); } else { alert("Geocode was not successful for the following reason: " + status); } }); } </cfloop> } And here is the code to initialize the map: var geocoder; var map; function initialize() { geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder(); var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(42.4167,-90.4290); var myOptions = { zoom: 5, center: latlng, mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP } var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ position: latlng, map: map, title: "Test" }); map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions); } I do have a map working that uses lat/long that was hard coded into the database table, but I want to be able to just use the city/state and convert that to a lat/long. Any suggestions or direction? Storing the lat/long in the database is also possible, but I don't know how to do that within SQL.

  • In SQL Server what is most efficient way to compare records to other records for duplicates with in

    - by Glenn
    We have an SQL Server that gets daily imports of data files from clients. This data is interrelated and we are always scrubbing it and having to look for suspect duplicate records between these files. Finding and tagging suspect records can get pretty complicated. We use logic that requires some field values to be the same, allows some field values to differ, and allows a range to be specified for how different certain field values can be. The only way we've found to do it is by using a cursor based process, and it places a heavy burden on the database. So I wanted to ask if there's a more efficient way to do this. I've heard it said that there's almost always a more efficient way to replace cursors with clever JOINS. But I have to admit I'm having a lot of trouble with this one. For a concrete example suppose we have 1 table, an "orders" table, with the following 6 fields. order_id, customer_id product_id, quantity, sale_date, price We want to look through the records to find suspect duplicates on the following example criteria. These get increasingly harder. 1. Records that have the same product_id, sale_date, and quantity but different customer_id's should be marked as suspect duplicates for review. 2. Records that have the same customer_id, product_id, quantity and have sale_dates within five days of each other should be marked as suspect duplicates for review 3. Records that have the same customer_id, product_id, but different quantities within 20 units, and sales dates within five days of each other should be considered suspect. Is it possible to satisfy each one of these criteria with a single SQL Query that uses JOINS? Is this the most efficient way to do this?

  • Between-request Garbage Collection using Passenger

    - by raphaelcm
    We're using Rails 3.0.7 and REE 1.8.7. Long-term, we will be upgrading, but at the moment it's not feasible. Following the advice of several blog posts, we've been tuning our GC, and have settings that work pretty well. But we would really like to run GC outside of the request-response cycle. I've tried patching Passenger per this post, and using the code supplied in this SO question. In both cases, GC does indeed happen between requests. However, every time the between-request GC happens, I see a bunch of this: MONGODB [INFO] Connecting... MONGODB admin['$cmd'].find({:ismaster=>1}).limit(-1) MONGODB admin['$cmd'].find({:ismaster=>1}).limit(-1) MONGODB admin['$cmd'].find({:ismaster=>1}).limit(-1) Starting the New Relic Agent. Installed New Relic Browser Monitoring middleware SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES RefinerySetting Load (0.0ms) SELECT `refinery_settings`.* FROM `refinery_settings` WHERE `refinery_settings`.`scoping` = 'pages' AND `refinery_settings`.`name` = 'use_marketable_urls' LIMIT 1 SQL (0.0ms) BEGIN RefinerySetting Load (0.0ms) SELECT `refinery_settings`.* FROM `refinery_settings` WHERE `refinery_settings`.`id` = 1 LIMIT 1 AREL (0.0ms) UPDATE `refinery_settings` SET `value` = '--- \"false\"\n', `callback_proc_as_string` = NULL WHERE `refinery_settings`.`id` = 1 SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES RefinerySetting Load (0.0ms) SELECT `refinery_settings`.* FROM `refinery_settings` SQL (0.0ms) COMMIT SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES RefinerySetting Load (4.0ms) SELECT `refinery_settings`.* FROM `refinery_settings` WHERE `refinery_settings`.`scoping` IS NULL AND `refinery_settings`.`name` = 'user_image_sizes' LIMIT 1 SQL (0.0ms) BEGIN RefinerySetting Load (0.0ms) SELECT `refinery_settings`.* FROM `refinery_settings` WHERE `refinery_settings`.`id` = 17 LIMIT 1 AREL (0.0ms) UPDATE `refinery_settings` SET `value` = '--- \n:small: 120x120>\n:medium: 280x280>\n:large: 580x580>\n', `callback_proc_as_string` = NULL WHERE `refinery_settings`.`id` = 17 SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES RefinerySetting Load (0.0ms) SELECT `refinery_settings`.* FROM `refinery_settings` SQL (0.0ms) COMMIT ******** Engine Extend: app/helpers/blog_posts_helper SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (4.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES ******** Engine Extend: app/models/user SQL (0.0ms) describe `roles_users` SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (4.0ms) describe `roles_users` SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (4.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.0ms) SHOW TABLES (etc, etc, etc) Which is what happens when rails "loads the world" when the app starts up. Basically, GC.start is re-loading the app for some reason. Because of this, between-request GC is much slower than inline GC. Is there a way around this? I would love to have snappy, between-request GC if possible. Thanks.
