SQL System Databases
• Physically
– A database is two or more files on one or more disks
• Logically
– Visible to the user as tables, views and stored procedures.
• System databases:
– master, Records all of the system-level information for a SQL Server 2000
system, including all other databases, login accounts, and system
configuration settings.
– tempdb, Stores all temporary tables and stored procedures created by
users, as well as temporary worktables used by the relational
database engine itself.
– model, Serves as the template that is used whenever a new database is
created.
– msdb, SQL Server Agent uses this system database for scheduling
alerts and jobs, and recording operators.
SQL User Databases
• User databases
– Used to store and operate with the work data
– Can be created and manipulated at will
– Sample pubs, Northwind
Physical Structure of a Database
• Physical Structure of a Database
– Each database consists of at least one data file and one transaction
log file
– These files are not shared with any other database.
• Extents and Pages
– SQL Server 2000 allocates space from a data file for tables and
indexes in 64-KB blocks called extents.
– A page is the fundamental unit of data storage in SQL Server 2000,
with the page size being 8 KB
• Transaction Log Files
– The transaction log file resides in one or more separate physical files
from the data files and contains a series of log records,
• To maximize prestanda those files should be
distributed over a disk array
SQL Server Authentication
• Authentication Modes
– Windows Authentication Mode (logged in user)
– SQL Server login account and password
– Mixed Mode (both the above)
• User Accounts
• Guest User Account, By default, all newly created user databases
have no guest user account.
• Roles, A database administrator uses roles to collect users into a
single unit against which
• to set permissions.
Quickstart Creating a User Database
• The first character
–
–
–
–
must begin with a letter,
the underscore (_),
the “at” sign (@), which signifies a local variable or parameter,
or the number sign (#), which signifies a temporary table or procedure.
• Subsequent characters in the name
– can also include numbers and the dollar sign ($).
• Embedded spaces and special characters cannot be included.
• A SQL Server 2000 reserved keyword in uppercase or lowercase
(examples: BACKUP or PLAN) cannot be used.
• Databases can be created with:

SQL Enterprice manager tools->wizard
Using Create database directly within Enterpice manager
SQL Query Analyzer
Create database test1
Command line
C:\> osql –E –s localhost
1> create database test1
2> go
3> exit

• Recreate any scripted database object
– Disatser recovery
– Deploying applications
• Result files are standard SQL Scripts
– Can be run on any server
– Use the SQL Query Analyzer to restore/manipulate with the script
Scripting your database object

Right click on database object
Select All tasks -> Generate SQL Script
Select Options and check at least Script Database
Click on OK button
Browse to storage palce for script file
Name the script with a proper name, like the name of database
Click on Save and smile
•
The resulting textfile is ANSI SQL
•
WARNING Note!
The generated script contain DROP DATABASE if it exists
Restoring your database object from script
• Quick Restore with SQL Enterprice manager using
script
1.From within SQL Enterprice manager open Tools -> SQL Query analyzer
2.On the toolbar Open Load SQL Script (ctrl shift p)
3.Browse to storage palce for script file and select your database object script
4.Click on open and then on the Play (execute) button to run the script
5.Verify that the database was created with either SQL Query analyzer or
SQL Enterprice manager
• There are other ways to backup and restore databases that
will be covered later
Database properties
• View with enterprice manager
– Right click on database and select properties
– You view the current settings for database
options using SQL Server Enterprise
Manager or using the
DATABASEPROPERTYEX system function.
• View with SQL Query analyzer
– To view the current recovery model for the TSQLDB database using the
DATABASEPROPERTYEX system function, use the following statement in
SQL Query
SELECT DATABASEPROPERTYEX (‘TSQLDB’, ’RECOVERY’)

Managing User Database Size
• Using Automatic File Growth Appropriately
–
–
–
–
–
Pros, no need to grew databases manually
Pros, automatically grewing less work to do
Cons, slows down databases when insert transactions is performed
Cons, can fill disks
By default, this database option setting is set to trye (enabled).
• Using Automatic File Shrinkage Appropriately
– In addition to autogrowth, you can configure a user database to shrink
automaticallywhenever a data file or transaction log file has a large amount
of free space.
– By default, this database option setting is set to false (disabled).
– Cons, slows down databases when delete transactions is performed
• Controlling Data File Size Manually
– Monitoring the amount of free space in your data files allows you to anticipate the
need to increase the size of your data files.
– You can then perform this task at a time when your system is not busy.
Creating Additional Data and Transaction Log Files
• Use Enterprice manager or SQL Query analyzer
– Adding more files for more space
If you need to create additional data
files or transaction log files
(either because the additional space
is on a separate drive or to enhance
performance by spreading
database files among multiple disks),
you can use SQL Server Enterprise Manager
– When creating additional database files using SQL Server Enterprise Manager, you
simply add the desired file in the Properties dialog box for the database.
– By default, all additional data files are added to the primary filegroup.
Configuring SQL Server Disk Subsystem for Performance
• Transaction Log
– You should choose your disk subsystem for your transaction log to reflect the fact that the
primary function of the transaction log is to provide for recoverability of your data in case
one or more of the disks containing your data files should fail.
• Data Files
– You should choose your disk subsystem for your data files to reflect the fact that data loss
and downtime are generally unacceptable.
– Using multiple data files to spread across multiple disks in a single filegroup is one way to
accomplish this
• Tempdb
– You should choose your disk subsystem for the tempdb database to reflect the fact that this
database is used only for temporary storage for work files.
– Optimizing thetempdb database means enabling it to handle a high volume of reads and
writes.
– Recoverability is not an issue because tempdb is rebuilt each time SQL Server 2000 starts.
– You should begin by placing the tempdb data file on its own disk, raid 0 is acceptable
• Best performance is acheived by having separate disks/disksets for each
file/database.
• SCSI disks fully outdo IDE/EIDE/SATA
– SCSI disks in raid constellation is to prefere, do NOT use IDE/SATA
Moving Data and Transaction Log Files
• Detaching Databases
– Allways detach a database before moving it!
– To detach a database using SQL Server Enterprise Manager, right-click the
database you want to detach, point to All Tasks, and then click Detach
Database
– If users are connected to this database, you can click the Clear button to
disconnect
– After a database has been detached, you can move one or more of the
physical files to a new location
• Attaching Databases
– You must attach databases before you can use them after moving
– To reattach a database using SQL Server Enterprise Manager, right-click
Databases, point to All Tasks, and then click Attach Database.
– In the Attach Database dialog box, you must enter the complete name and path of
the primary data file
– If SQL Server 2000 does not find any of these files, it will place a red X in the
check box next to that physical file
– You can also change the database name at this point
Summary storage performance
• The first step in using multiple disks to optimize your SQL
Server 2000 production environment is to use separate disks for
your transaction log files and your data files. This separation will
ensure recoverability in case of a disk failure.
• Use dedicated disks for all SQL Server 2000 files where possible.
Next, use RAID 1 for your transaction log.
• Use RAID 10 if possible for your data files.
• Consider using either RAID 0 or RAID 5 if you cannot justify
RAID 10 because of financial constraints.
