::FN_DBLOG - Problem in retreiving [row data]

  •  ::FN_DBLOG - Problem in retreiving [row data]

    Hello

    While attempting to retrieve [row data] column using  select * from ::FN_DBLOG ...

    an empty '0x' value is passed back.

    The retrived record does contain row data. It can be seen when using DBCC LOG.

    However - DBCC LOG is not as versatile as ::FN_DBLOG(): which supports

    a standard SQL query. In addition - DBCC seems to be a more resource consuming

    piece.

    Please do not propse a 3rd party software solution.

    I need the [row data] 'as is' in its very  basic binary raw format and ::FN_DBLOG() fits exactly to my needs.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Regards

    Hillel.

     

     

  • I didn't know the function, but sp_help fn_dblog gave some info.

    use

    your_db

    go

    declare

    @StartLSN nvarchar(50)

    declare @EndLSN nvarchar(50)

    -- find LSN in sqlserverlog, ...

    select @StartLSN = '19:4501:37', @EndLSN = '19:4517:1'

    select

    * from ::FN_DBLOG(@StartLSN, @EndLSN)

    Works fine overhere.

  • Thanx - these basics are known.

    However - as I try to retrieve [row data]

     select [row data] from ::FN_DBLOG(@StartLSN, @EndLSN)

    I get empty columns although there is data held there.

    This is my problem in this regard.

    Does anybody has any idea?
