How to Identify Blocking Problems with SQL Profiler

Detach all databases on a server

use master
go

exec master..sp_MSForEachDB '
if(''?'' not in (''master'',''msdb'',''tempdb'',''model''))
begin
print ''use master''
print ''go''
print ''EXEC master.dbo.sp_detach_db @dbname = ''''?'''', @keepfulltextindexfile=N''''true''''''
print ''go''
end
'
go

Using SP_MSForEachDB and SP_MSForEachTable

Insert into an IDENTITY column Table

SET IDENTITY_INSERT MemberMailID ON;
insert into MemberMailID (pkid,inputvalue,insertdate) values(589297975,1,getdate());
SET IDENTITY_INSERT MemberMailID OFF;



create table #tmp (lastid int)

declare @MemberMailID int
insert into #tmp
exec up_PrimaryKey_Select 'MemberMailID'
select @MemberMailID = lastid from #tmp
select @MemberMailID


-------------------------------------

ALTER proc [dbo].[up_PrimaryKey_Select] @KeyName varchar(75),@InputValue int = null
as
set nocount on
declare @ExecString nvarchar (1000)
declare @PKID int
if @InputValue is null
begin
set @InputValue = 1
end
set
set @ExecString = 'insert '+@KeyName+'(InputValue) values(@InputValue)
select @PKID = scope_identity()'
exec sp_executesql @ExecString,
N'@InputValue int,@PKID int output',@InputValue, @PKID = @PKID output
select @PKID as PKID
return

SQL SERVER - Guidelines and Coding Standards

Find a Stored Procedure within entire server

EXEC master..sp_MSForEachDB '
IF EXISTS
(
SELECT 1
FROM [?].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES
WHERE ROUTINE_NAME = ''up_AggregateStatistics_SingleDate''
)
BEGIN
SELECT ''[?]'';


SELECT ''['' + SPECIFIC_CATALOG + '']'', ''['' + ROUTINE_NAME + '']''
FROM [?].INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES
WHERE ROUTINE_NAME = ''up_AggregateStatistics_SingleDate'';
END';

Change Job Owner

USE [msdb]
GO
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_update_job @job_id=N'9b72dfd8-0845-4632-8ffb-43d35e723ace', @owner_login_name=N'sa'
GO

--select * from msdb.dbo.sysjobs where job_id=N'9b72dfd8-0845-4632-8ffb-43d35e723ace'

Purge MSDB Mail History

use msdb
go


DECLARE @d datetime
select @d = min(last_mod_date) from sysmail_attachments with (nolock)
select @d
set @d = dateadd(dd,1,@d)
select @d

EXEC msdb.dbo.sysmail_delete_mailitems_sp @sent_before = @d
go

DBCC SHRINKFILE (N'MSDBLog' , 0)
GO
DBCC SHRINKDATABASE(N'msdb' )
GO

/*
select top 10 * from sysmail_attachments with (nolock)
select count(*) from sysmail_attachments with (nolock)
select min(last_mod_date) from sysmail_attachments with (nolock)
select max(last_mod_date) from sysmail_attachments with (nolock)
