All,

Alter Database Remove File : Partition Files on different folders

I need to remove partition files, once I switch the partition with staging table and empty/truncate the partition.
When I was running the code on my local machine I was passing variable @partition_file_name to following statement:
Declare @partition_file_name varchar(128)='table_abc_201202',
@database_name varchar(128)='test'
Alter Database @database_name Remove File @partition_file_name
Note @partition_file_name is the logical name of the partition file.
I found out partitions are saved in different folders in my Dev env...They are stored in 12 different folders which are named like 1-12.
E.g:
C:\DATA\2\table_abc_201202.ndf
C:\DATA\3\table_abc_201203.ndf
C:\DATA\4\table_abc_201204.ndf
C:\DATA\5\table_abc_201205.ndf
C:\DATA\2\table_abc_201302.ndf
C:\DATA\3\table_abc_201303.ndf
C:\DATA\4\table_abc_201304.ndf
C:\DATA\5\table_abc_201305.ndf
I am wondering , is SQL server with Alter statement is capable of getting the right path for each partition files and remove them accordingly? Or do I need to pass the physical path to the alter statement to get it removed. Though I tried doing that and
got the error.

Yes, SQL Server knows which physical file goes with which logical filename. (To see that SQL does know this, do a SELECT * FROM sys.sysfiles - you'll see SQL has a row for every logical filename and that row has the corresponding physical file name.)
And when you do the ALTER DATABASE REMOVE FILE, you must specify the logical filename. You will get an error if you give the physical path.

Error in load database content step

Hi All,
I am having a problem in step 22, the "Load Java database content" step, in the Netweaver Sneak Preview SP15 installation procedure.
It seems that the program that is wanting to connect to the J2E database is failing. The details of the log browser are below.

I changed the timezone for the installation to the German timezone, and restarted the installation from the start - after uninstalling everything, and dropping the database.
Everything went through.

Physical Database Design Steps & Performance Considerations

Hi,
We have a Oracle 9i install need help to create a DB.
Required to know the Physical Database Design Steps & Performance Considerations.
like
1-Technical consideration of DB as per server capacity. how to calculate..?
2- What will be the best design parameter for DB...?
Can you please help how to do that. Any metalink ID help to get those information.
thanks
kishor

there is SOOO much to consider . . . .
Just a FEW things are . . .
Hardware - What kind of Host is the database going to run on?
CPU and Memory
What kind of Storage
What is the Network like?
What is the database going to do OLTP or DW?
Start with your NEEDS and work to fulfill those needs on the budget given.
Since you say Physical Database Design . . . is your Logical Database Design done?
Does it fulfill the need of your application?

Does the IHandy flashlight app contain malware? ? If so what are the removal steps to insure the malware is removed??

Does the anyone know if the IHandy flashlight app contain malware?? If so what are the removal steps to insure the malware is removed??

There is no malware that can affect an iPhone unless it's been jailbroken.
Some apps request to do things, like access your location or contacts, and can continue to do so in the background. If this app requested permission for either of these things, you should delete it. A flashlight app has no need for such information.

Database, custom step types, ann XML report issues...All in one

TS3.0
Have a number of issues to do the above. I'll try and explain them in order. I'm sure there all linked, but can't figure out how...
The "Custom" Steps.....They are copies of the NI Numeric/Multiple Numeric tests, with a added post step to translate the error code into something meaningful.... No big deal.
XML Issue
When the report is generated the the Multiple numeric saves fine(See Multiple.txt, the step is of numeric type, all is well). However strange things happen in the Numeric test. see "Simple.txt" for a snipit of the result file. As you can see the "error code" contains the measurement. Why....?
Also in the XML the result seems to be reported as a normal step(like an action) and not a numeric test....
DATABASE Issues
Now when loggin to the standard DB that ships with TS, with the 1 change to the tables, to record our custom types in the DB. Everything works fine and is recorded untill the 1st instance of a skipped "Custom_MultipleNumericLimit Test" , at which point the DB (Microsoft Access) throws a wobbly(error message) and states that "No such col exsists". When the DB is looked at everything is recorded upto the point where a skipped Custom Step happend(and the error message). When the custom type is run normally(ie not skipped), the resutls are recorded fine, no problems.
Can't get my head around whats going on. I've check the property flags, and as far as I can tell every thing is in order for these custom steps(ie they look the same as the TestStand steps they are based on). It records fine in the XML.

Can you be more specific details about your database problem, specifically:
1) the changes that you made to the default schema
2) the changes that you made to the database tables
3) the entire error message text for the logging error

Content Database removed from protected SharePoint Farm

Hi,
We have a SharePoint 2007 farm protected with DPM 2012. We have removed a content database and now DPM is complaining about it, which is the expected behaviour in order to get noticed of accidentally missing databases. According to several sources, the right
way to get rid of these alerts is to stop protection - retaining data - and reprotecting it using the same parameters, so the DPM agent finds the retained data as a starting point.
However, our farm has about 4Tb allocated and we have less than 1 additional Tb free now in the DPM Pool, so if we stop protection and retain data, DPM will complain about the farm not fitting in that Tb (looks like DPM does not take into account that pertinent
data exists previously when estimating the replica and shadow sizes), so we will not be able to protect the farm again if we stop protection retaining data.
Funny, eh? any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
When you stop protection and retain the replica, DPM will move the sharepoint data source into an inactive protection group. When you re-protect the same sharepoint farm, DPM will first query the inactive protection group to see if a replica exists
for that data source and if so will reuse that replica. It will then do a consistency check to bring the replica up to date, then resume normal backups. Be sure the use the same recovery goals if you are not adding it back to the same protection group.

Database design steps

Hi all,
I am new to learn the oracle database design. Please anyone can give me the steps/procedure that we can easily to design the new oracle database.?
regards,
samurai

Are you referring to physical database design (disk layouts, file locations etc.) or logical database design (schema, table structures, indexes etc.)?
Based on your requirement, the answer will change.
But simply stated, it would be better if you could take a course from local universities or colleges which have database design as part of IT curriculum. It is not possible to summarize database design in a few lines.

Public Folder Database Removal

Hello,
I am working in a Exchange 2010/2013 co-existence environment.
All mailboxes have been moved to Exchange 2013.
Public folders remain on Exchange 2010 for the moment.
There are 4 Public folder databases, all identical in terms of replicas:
PFDB1 - MBX01
PFDB2- MBX02
PFDB3 - MBX03
PFDB4 - MBX04
Circumstances beyond my control may mean that I need to take the MBX03 and MBX04 servers out of the production environment before I have migrated the public folder hierarchy across to 2013.
What is the recommended method for removing the public folder databases on these two servers?
Previous experience tells me that removing a database containing any replicas will fail. How can this be mitigated while keeping the PF structure in tact on PFDB1 and PFDB2 and thus serving the client mailboxes?
Regards
Matt

Hi,
To remove a public folder databae, you can look at the following article.
Remove Public Folder Databases
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/dd876883(v=exchg.141).aspx
Before you delete public folder database, please dismount public folder databases temporarily and make sure Exchange 2013 users can access public folders normally.
