| Add PK CLUSTERED to existing table with dependencies Posted: 20 Aug 2013 01:56 AM PDT Hi,My database has a bunch of tables on it that have no indexes at all on them. I want to add indexes to these tables but I am having trouble doing it and am getting messages about dependencies... As an example:I have a table with this column:[code][ACC_Name] [nvarchar](10) NULL[/code](the table also has some other columns but I do not think they are relevant to this...)I want to add a primary key clustered in order to enforce the acc_name to always be unique (and to speed up query times). I have tested and as of right now the acc_name is indeed always unique (# distinct acc_name's = # rows in table).I first tried to create the table the way I wanted it (with the PK clustered), insert * from the existing table into my new table and then delete the existing table and re-name my new one, but it won't let me delete the existing table because there are a bunch of views that point at the existing table.Next I tried to add the primary key clustered to the existing table like this, figuring this would maybe have been a smarter way to do it anyhow:[code]ALTER TABLE [dbo].[ACC_STRUCTURE]alter column [ACC_Name] [nvarchar](10) NOT NULLALTER TABLE [dbo].[ACC_STRUCTURE]ADD CONSTRAINT PK_ACC_Name PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED(ACC_Name)[/code]...but it won't complete the first statement because of the dependencies mentioned above. Is there a way around this? |

| SQL Server import export wizard vs bulk insert Posted: 20 Aug 2013 01:42 PM PDT Hi Professionals.I have a question regarding importing data from spreadsheets.I manually use SQL Servers Import and Export wizard to import a .xls spreadsheet and it is intelligent enough to match the columns correctly. But when I do this using a bulk insert I run into problems for instancewhen I have a column named softwaremanufacturer and I import data that reads "Adobe systems, Inc" the Import wizards populates the column like so[code]softwaremanufacturerAdobe Systems, Inc[/code]but when I do a bulk insert of my csv I run into the following problems as it comes to the comma and thinks it is a new table column shifting the "Inc" part into the next column along like so[code]computername, softwaremanufacturer,productname, productversion"ACTADMINPC002 g00228" "Adobe Systems Inc" "Acrobat Reader (redistributable)""ACTADMINPC002 g00228" "Adobe Systems Inc" "Air""ACTADMINPC002 g00228" "Adobe Systems Inc" "Collaboration synchronizer""ACTADMINPC002 g00228" "Adobe Systems Inc" "EULA""ACTADMINPC002 g00228" "Adobe Systems Inc" "Flash player"[/code]Is there a way to get around thishope this makes sense and thanks in advance |

| Setting up server to add a node to a cluster. Posted: 20 Aug 2013 12:48 AM PDT Ok a bit of a different situation that I am used to so I need a sanity check.Right now I have a one node cluster, it was a two node cluster but we had a hardware failure so we evicted the bad node from the cluster and are rebuilding windows on the bad node after doing a hardware fix.So, that's the setup here is the question.I am guessing we add the node back into windows clustering and make it aware of the storage then add the node to sql clustering via sql install. Is that basically it? Can we add the node back to windows clustering without taking down the active node (there is some question here about adding the new node and making it aware of the storage will cause an issue with the active node).Thanks, I am used to doing this when I have two ore more existing nodes already in the windows cluster. |
