XI database maintenance

What does XI store in it's database? What are the common maintenance activities?
Thanks.

Hi,
In which database you installed XI system. For example Oracle means it will store data in the form of data files.
When we installing XI system by default it will take some space in OS level in the form of datafiles.
For XI system we have to database owners one is SAP<SID> for abap system.
SAP<SID>DB for java system.
i hope it will help you.

Database maintenance for sqlserver database to improve performance

In our company sqlserver 2008 R2 is working as a project server database.
I want to know commands for database maintenance.
Please let me know all command in order which i need to run in sqlserver for database maintenance.
because i want to increase performance of projectserver 2010.

Hi John.Eddie,
For increasing SQL Server performance, you can do full daily backup, transaction log backups, check database integrity, rebuild index and update statistics in database maintenance plan.
However, you need to note that running "Shrink Database", it causes disk and as well as index fragmentation and leads to performance issues.
To ensure your database stays healthy and available, there are a few "'must do" tasks. For example:
1.Remove excessive transaction log file fragmentation.
2.Set auto-growth correctly.
3.Turn off any scheduled shrink operations.
4.Turn on AUTO_CREATE_STATISTICS and AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS, plus have a regular process in place to update statistics.
5.Have a regular process to run DBCC CHECKDB, take full database backups, plus differential and log backups for point-in-time recovery.
For more information about database maintenance, you can review the following article.

On demand database maintenance order

Dear Experts,We have a prod database (databaseA)at 45GB and it contains tables for attachments(documents, images etc) from 7 companies/affiliates. The compressed full backup size is at 35.5 GB. We also maintain diff and trn backups that run on sched. We have fewer restore points due to storage constraint.A new database (databaseB) has been created in another server to house the other 6 companies' data, hence we can now delete other companies' data/records from this databaseA which leave it with only one company data. I think it is an occasion in which running DBCC shrinkdatabase would be legal so that the OS could reclaim the space.Sorry for that long overview, but my question is about the proper order of database maintenance. Is the following correct? Or will it create performance issues? Are each step necessary? Kindly enlighten me....
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

You can create a service order through sales order creation using action item of quality notification.
Define the function module into action box's item in configuration
SPRO > Quality Management > Quality Notifications > Notification Processing > Additional Notification Functions > Define Action Box > Define Functions for the Action Box
SAP sample function module is 'QM06_FM_TASK_RMA_ORDER_CREATE' for creation of repair order.
When you select the action item at quality notification, the pop-up screen to create a sales order will be shown.
Also you can assign a service item(=service material) to create a service order at the same time.
If you want to create a maintenance order(not service order), you have to use the maintenance notification.
Because only maintenance notification can have the technical object like equipment, functional location.

Noticing a lot of database index fragmentation yet no Health Analyzer alerts...? Best practice for database maintenance in 2013?

Could someone point me to a document for best practices for database maintenance with SharePoint 2013? I have read the 2010 document, but I'm hoping their is an updated one that I'm just missing.
My problem is that our DBA recently noticed that many of our SharePoint databases have high index fragmentation. I have the Health Analyzer rules enabled for index fragmentation and they run daily, but I've never received an alert despite the majority
of our databases having greater than 40% fragmentation and some are even above 95%.
Obviously it has our attention now and we want to get this addressed. My understanding (which I now fear is at best incomplete, more likely just plain wrong) was that a maintenance plan wasn't needed for index fragmentation in 2010/2013 like it was
in 2007.
Thanks,
Troy

It depends. Here are the rules for that job:
Sampled mode
Page count >24 and avg fragmentation in percent >5
Or
Page count >8 avg page space used in percent < fill_factor * 0.9 (Fill Factor in SharePoint 2013 varies from 80 to 100 depending on the index, it is important not to adjust index fill factors)
I have seen cases where the indexes are not automatically managed by the rule and require a manual defragmentation with a Full Scan, instead of Sampled. Once the Full Scan defrag completed, the timer job started handling the index fragmentation automatically.

SQL 2000 Database Maintenance Plan drop downs for days, weeks, months, not displaying

When setting up a SQL 2000 Database Maintenance Plan the drop down for Remove files older than is not populating with hours, days, weeks, or months. It is just blank. The version is Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.2039 (Intel X86)
May 3 2005 23:18:38 Copyright (c) 1988-2003 Microsoft Corporation Desktop Engine on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 2). Is there a fix for this issue?

This also works. All the credit goes to a user named eyechart. Great directions provided as well.
http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=47575
sqlmaint.exe
was missing from MSDE 2000, but that was fixed in SP1 I think. Since this is SP3
you probably have a missing registry value for the backup directory.
I
had to fix a similar problem last year on a bunch of laptops. They were all
missing a registry value. Anyway, here is the fix:
1. Fire up regedit and
look under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer
2. Ensure you have
a string value called BackupDirectory. The value for this should be the path to
your backup dir. The default value is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\BACKUP
btw, this fix assumes you have a default instance
installed. A named instance will have slightly different registry location and
filesystem path.

User receives meeting confirmation during Database Maintenance Window

Hello
I am facing an unusual behaviour which drives me crazy.
A user (it’s unfortunately an important one) receives every night at 02:07 meeting confirmations in his “deleted items” folder.
During this time the Exchange Database Maintenance is scheduled. But I have no idea why this should generate such mails.
I think somehow this maintenance Task sends out a meeting request which is automatically approved by the recipient and the confirmation is sent back to my users deleted item folder.
Someone got an idea what is causing this?

Hi,
From your description, I would like to verify the following things for troubleshooting:
1. Is this meeting a recurring meeting?
2. I recommend you use message tracking to check who sent these specific emails.
Here is an article about message tracking for your reference.

Scheduled Database Maintenance

I have a question that I'd like to post. Any assistance appreciated.
On each 2013 Database there is the scheduled maintenance and the 24x7. Does the scheduled maintenance run along with the 24x7 or is it a option of one or the other?

Scheduled Maintenance is deprecated in 2013. Its all workload based.
The background maint is really database checksumming.
This is for 2010, but applies for the most part:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2011/12/14/database-maintenance-in-exchange-2010.aspx
Bottom Line: I would leave the defaults as is. That makes Exchange happy.

Developing a Database maintenance plan

Can you provide me links which goes into detail about developing a Database maintenance plan[i.e. taking backups [either Full or Inc] of DBs and transaction logs, deleting the oldest cycles, etcc]. I am not a DBA but at same time I am trying to learn as
much as I can.

SharePoint 2010 Database maintenance for beginners / developers

Hey,
here is a thing which I concern myself with from time to time.
As a fulltime developer for SharePoint, I'm not quite familiar with maintaining it's databases. So after I set up my dev environment I usually don't care about maintaining the system. The logical consequence is that the system begins to slow down after a
while.
I don't have the time (and - to be honest - not the muse) to deep dive into the recommended maintaing plans by microsoft but I want to keep the performance of my system on an acceptable level. So I read the best practices provided by microsoft about index
defragmentation, reorganizing, shrinking and so on but for me it's quite difficult to fully dive into these things without spending to much of my business time.
So I wander if there are any execution-ready T-SQL scripts or something like that, which I can run from time to time to prevent my databases from to high fragmentation. I found some scripts for a stored procedure which reorganizes a particular index. But
what I am thinking about is a script which iterates through all databases, all tables and all indexes and reorganizes them.
I'm not looking for the perfect mainenance plan to achieve the best possible performance - I just want to prevent my dev environment from slowing down to much.
Are there any scripts like that out there? or do you have other tips for me?
Thank you!

Hi,
The steps to configure the maintenance plan is very easy and wont take more than 10 minutes. It is one time activity. It is nothing but drag and drag drop the required tasks from the Tool bar. You can schedule the maintenance plan to run on specific
time or can run directly on demand basis.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/13956.sharepoint-2010-how-to-create-a-sql-server-2008-r2-maintence-plan-for-sharepoint.aspx
If you are looking only for SQL scripts then you may need to post in SQL forum, because maintenance plans will be almost similar for SharePoint Databases/or any SQL DBs.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful, if this solves/helps your problem. ******************************************************************************************

Database maintenance plan - recommendation

Hi
I have an existing mm plan in one of the server which contain
1.Check integrity
2.Shrink
3. Reorganize
4.Rebuild
5.Update stats
Does both Reorganize and Rebuild required in the same mm plan ? Only Rebuild will optimize the indexes ?
Currently re-org is taking 2 hrs to complete where Rebuils only 20 min .
Thanks

2 Shrink -
The second option Shrink is not recommened in a maintenance plan. Shrinking introduces fragmentation and causes autogrowth unnecessarily. Shrinking in not a good for either data file or log files. Shrinking occassionally to free up space which got increased
exponentially due to some specific operation is fine. But shrink in a Maintenance plan is a very very bad idea. Check these blogs
http://www.brentozar.com/archive/2009/08/stop-shrinking-your-database-files-seriously-now/
http://sqlblog.com/blogs/aaron_bertrand/archive/2009/07/27/oh-the-horror-please-stop-telling-people-they-should-shrink-their-log-files.aspx
3 Reorganize/4 Rebuild
Both are not required. Either one is enough. A better approach is to find the fragmentation and then decide either to reorganize or rebuild. You dont have to do this for all indexes. You only need to reorg/rebuild if the fragmentation is higher. General
rule of thumb
Fragmentation between 10 % - 30 % - Reorganize
Fragmentation above 30 % - Rebuild
Also you only need to do this if the page count is above 1000.
I would recommend you to take a look at Ola Hallegrans maintenance solution rather than using a Maintenance Plan

Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to tahiti.oracle.com.
Drill down to your product and version.
BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read the 2-Day DBA guide
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

Database Maintenance App

I've created a java app which connects to a mySQL database and uses data in the tables to display info in the app. However the data in the tables changes quite frequently (ie. one table contains a timetable). My clients have no knowledge of SQL and therefore I'm wondering if someone could point me to a program which will allow them to simple select a table from the database and then modify the values in it. It would have to be quite simple, which PHPMyAdmin is not. The tables structure does not need to be altered either, so I need a basic frontend that can perform INSERT, UPDATE, SELECT, etc commands.
Help would be greatly appreciated, as it would save me time in having to program an app like this myself.

There isn't going to be any magic bullet solution here. You either have to build a program to interact with your needs or allow direct access to the tables (which is undesirable for many reasons including the one you indicated.
There are many frameworks for building such tools but in the end you will still have to apply them to your own needs (aka you will have to write code).
