SQL Server有哪些隐藏特性?

例如,没有文档的系统存储过程,做一些非常有用但没有足够文档的事情的技巧?

存储过程

sp_msforeachtable: Runs a command with '?' replaced with each table name (v6.5 and up) sp_msforeachdb: Runs a command with '?' replaced with each database name (v7 and up) sp_who2: just like sp_who, but with a lot more info for troubleshooting blocks (v7 and up) sp_helptext: If you want the code of a stored procedure, view & UDF sp_tables: return a list of all tables and views of database in scope. sp_stored_procedures: return a list of all stored procedures xp_sscanf: Reads data from the string into the argument locations specified by each format argument. xp_fixeddrives:: Find the fixed drive with largest free space sp_help: If you want to know the table structure, indexes and constraints of a table. Also views and UDFs. Shortcut is Alt+F1

可伸缩的共享数据库

通过可伸缩共享数据库,可以在普通机器上挂载相同的物理驱动器,并允许多个SQL Server 2005实例使用同一组数据文件。这种设置不需要为每个SQL Server实例复制存储,并且允许多个SQL Server实例具有额外的处理能力,这些实例具有自己的本地资源,如cpu、内存、tempdb和其他潜在的本地数据库。

因为我是程序员,而不是DBA,所以我最喜欢的隐藏特性是SMO库。从数据库/表/列的创建和删除,到脚本编写,再到备份和恢复,在SQL Server中几乎任何事情都可以自动化。如果你能在SQL Server Management Studio中完成它,你也可以在SMO中自动化它。

SQL Server 2005:

select * from sys.dm_os_performance_counters

select * from sys.dm_exec_requests

Sp_who2,就像sp_who一样,但是有更多关于故障排除块的信息

Vardecimal存储格式

SQL Server 2005为数字和十进制数据类型添加了一种新的存储格式,称为vardecimal。Vardecimal是十进制类型的一种变长表示,可以在行的每个实例中保存未使用的字节。如果十进制定义很大(如decimal(38,6)),但存储的值很小(如0.0),或者有大量重复值,或者数据填充稀疏,则可以节省最多的时间。

存储过程的一个技巧是可以从INSERT语句调用它们。当我在SQL Server数据库上工作时,我发现这非常有用。

CREATE TABLE #toto (v1 int, v2 int, v3 char(4), status char(6))
INSERT #toto (v1, v2, v3, status) EXEC dbo.sp_fulubulu(sp_param1)
SELECT * FROM #toto
DROP TABLE #toto
