QUERY: Daily database size occupation

  • Hi all...

    while trying to find which of the 40 databases in the server is growing without control I've created a job that runs in 15 min interval that records to a table the file, data and log occupation for each database.

    now I want to know in a daily base, for each database, the last recorded size.

    I'm breaking my head with this ... I think I need a rest... can someone help me?

    the recorded fields are:

    RECORD_DATE (Datetime)

    DATABASE_NAME

    FILE_SIZE

    FILE_SIZE_USED

    DATA_SIZE

    DATA_SIZE_USED

    LOG_SIZE

    LOG_SIZE_USED

    Thanks in advance...

  • You would want the MAX recorded date, then you will need to group by the remaining columns

    SELECT

    MAX(RECORD_DATE)

    DATABASE_NAME,

    FILE_SIZE,

    FILE_SIZE_USED,

    DATA_SIZE,

    DATA_SIZE_USED,

    LOG_SIZE,

    LOG_SIZE_USED

    FROM

    sometable

    GROUP BY

    DATABASE_NAME,

    FILE_SIZE,

    FILE_SIZE_USED,

    DATA_SIZE,

    DATA_SIZE_USED,

    LOG_SIZE,

    LOG_SIZE_USED

    That will only give the last recorded value, not on a daily basis.

    Will create a different script.

  • Hopefully this will do it based on the max record date for a particular day then linking back to itself to get that row for that particular database.

    SELECT

    T1.RECORD_DATE,

    T1.DATABASE_NAME,

    T1.FILE_SIZE,

    T1.FILE_SIZE_USED,

    T1.DATA_SIZE,

    T1.DATA_SIZE_USED,

    T1.LOG_SIZE,

    T1.LOG_SIZE_USED

    FROM

    sometable T1

    INNER JOIN

    (

    SELECT

    MAX(RECORD_DATE) AS MaxRecordDate,

    DATABASE_NAME

    FROM

    sometable

    GROUP BY

    CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),RECORD_DATE,120)

    DATABASE_NAME

    ) as Dev1

    ON

    T1.RECORD_DATE = Dev1.MaxRecordDate

    AND

    T1.DATABASE_NAME = Dev1.DATABASE_NAME

    ORDER BY

    T1.DATABASE_NAME,

    T1.RECORD_DATE
