  2. SQL Server Scripts for your Toolbox Chris Barba Senior Developer Analyst Cimarex

  3. Please Be Courteous!

  4. Session Objectives and Takeaways • Session Objective(s): • Provide some scripts for your SQL Toolbox • Not going to review each script line by line • Could be better ways of doing some of this • Some scripts help with new development, some help with support (some help with both) • You can use this scripts immediately • Unless noted you don’t need elevated permissions to run

  5. SSMS 2008 Can’t Save Table Changes • Any change that causes a table to be drop and recreated can not be made. • Microsoft recommends scripting all table changes • Here’s how to fix • Tools -> Options -> Designers -> Tables and Designers • Uncheck “Prevent Saving changes that require table re-creation” • Warning • This will conflict if you have Change Tracking turned off. • With this option off, if you change a table all tracking changes will also be deleted.

  6. How to tell which version of SQL you’re running • The features available to you depend on the version of SQL Server you are running. • Why does this matter: • Asked to develop functionality that might not be available on the DB version. • People might not actually know what version they have. • Super quick and easy method: • Select @@version

  7. When was the last time your database was restored • When in an environment other than production you might not know how new the data is. • You can see the last time a database was restored.

  8. What SQL objects have been added/updated recently • There are times when it helps to know what db objects have been added/updated recently. • Track changes in production • Know what changed during development

  9. Row Count of all Tables in a Database • This helps to get an idea about what’s normal in terms of the volume of data. • Sometimes you need a take a row count before and after doing something

  10. Search for column names across all tables • There are times when you can’t remember what table holds a specific field • This script will return any tables containing the specified column name

  11. Search for string across all fields in all tables in a database • There are times when you have data, but you don’t know where it is stored. • This script will search every field in every database for a value.

  12. Keyword search across Stored Procedures, Functions, Triggers • There are times where you don’t know what proc, etc. is updating your table. • Also you may need to know if a string is hard coded. • This script will search across all your tsql code for a specific string.

  13. Get Database information • Returns information about each database on the server. • Returns information like file sizes, recovery model, etc.

  14. Loop through all tables • This is an undocumented stored procedure. • You won’t see this sp in SSMS. • Makes looping through all tables simpler • This is way easier than how I used to loop though all tables • sp_msForEachTable

  15. Loop through all databases • This is an undocumented stored procedure. • Allows run statements/commands against all databases on a server • sp_msForEachDB

  16. List all triggers • I avoid triggers because I always forget they are there. • This script will return all triggers on a database

  17. Get list of DB objects • List all tables • List all columns • List all default values • List all foreign keys • List all Primary keys • List all stored procs (with create scripts) • List all views (with create scripts) • List all synonyms

  18. List all tables views procs • Just need a quick list of all tables and views in a database • EXEC sp_tables

  19. Grant exec to all stored procedures • Easy way to grant execute permissions to all stored procedures. • Instead of granting per user, just add users to role. • You won’t have to remember to add permissions to new stored procedures

  20. Last Nights Job Run Status • This summary script will return all the jobs that ran last night and their status (success or failure). • I’ve used this script to email in the morning.

  21. Track Changes to objects in your database • This script will allow you to track when/what/who makes changes to DB objects. • It creates an audit table and puts triggers on the database. • Warning:You need permissions to create a table in a database.

  22. Instead of Triggers • Override the standard actions of triggering statements • Insert, Update, Delete • Performs additional actions before the events. • Ignore parts of a batch • Take alternate action if an error occurs

  23. Additional Resources • You can find all these scripts on my blog along with this presentation • http://chrisbarba.com • Email me if you have any trouble or questions • chrisbarba@gmail.com
