I’ve encountered a situation where I need to find out the database file,log file, total size and other useful information about a database on SQL Server 2000/2005/2008/R2 versions. The requirement is to use same query and it has to be executed across all version of SQL SERVER. We can also do this using dynamic SQL’s.
Here is the T-SQL which you can use to run on any version of SQL Server to fetch the result.
USE MASTER
Go
SELECT @@SERVERNAME Servername,
CONVERT(VARCHAR(25), DB.name) AS dbName,
CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), DATABASEPROPERTYEX(name, ‘status’)) AS [Status],
(SELECT COUNT(1) FROM sysaltfiles WHERE DB_NAME(dbid) = DB.name AND groupid !=0 ) AS DataFiles,
(SELECT SUM((size*8)/1024) FROM sysaltfiles WHERE DB_NAME(dbid) = DB.name AND groupid!=0) AS [Data MB],
(SELECT COUNT(1) FROM sysaltfiles WHERE DB_NAME(dbid) = DB.name AND groupid=0) AS LogFiles,
(SELECT SUM((size*8)/1024) FROM sysaltfiles WHERE DB_NAME(dbid) = DB.name AND groupid=0) AS [Log MB],
(SELECT SUM((size*8)/1024) FROM sysaltfiles WHERE DB_NAME(dbid) = DB.name AND groupid!=0)+(SELECT SUM((size*8)/1024) FROM sysaltfiles WHERE DB_NAME(dbid) = DB.name AND groupid=0) TotalSizeMB,
convert(sysname,DatabasePropertyEx(name,’Updateability’)) Updateability,
convert(sysname,DatabasePropertyEx(name,’UserAccess’)) UserAccess ,
convert(sysname,DatabasePropertyEx(name,’Recovery’)) RecoveryModel ,
convert(sysname,DatabasePropertyEx(name,’Version’)) Version ,

END AS [compatibility level],
CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), crdate, 103) + ‘ ‘ + CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), crdate, 108) AS [Creation date],

FROM sysdatabases DB
ORDER BY dbName, [Last backup] DESC, NAME
