2 sql server best practice 1 MB file growth SQL Server comes with a standard configuration which autogrows data files in databases in 1 MB increments. By incrementing in such small chunks, you risk ending up with a very fragmented data file on your disk. Consider a 200 GB database which has grown to its size by 200,000 auto grow events. In that case, you might end up with a data file in over 200,000 fragments spread all over your disk. To avoid getting a highly fragmented data file, we recommend that you always change this value on every new database you create, and also existing databases which still have the 1 MB auto grow configured. What should you use instead? There is no perfect answer that matches all cases, as it depends on your expected data volume in the database. If you create a database which you expect will only grow to a few megabytes, it would be a waste of disk space to grow in 1-2 GB increments. In that case, choose a smaller number like 32, 64, 128 or 256 MB. Keeping it neat is considered best practice. If you expect your newly created database to grow to hundreds of gigabytes, then you should use increments of 1-2 GB instead. When using SQL Server 2008R2 and older versions, avoid using exactly 4GB increments due to a known bug. Changing the default Every new database is created by cloning properties from the model database. You could change the default size and autogrow settings in the model database and then finish up. Well... almost! If you have changed the default autogrow setting in the model database and used the SQL Server Management Studio gui to create a new database, then it honors those new grow settings, and you don't need to worry too much about it. However, if you use the CREATE DATABASE statement, it will not honor the autogrow settings in the model. So if you are a T-SQL guy, be aware of this when creating databases. Autoshrink Enabled The cost of disk space is very high. SQL Server can help you: it can automatically shrink databases to remove unused space and by doing that you can save loads of money perfect right? NO! This option has way more drawbacks than advantages, so please do not enable autoshrink. Shrinking databases is the fastest way to achieve fragmentation. SQL Server goes to the last page in the database, moves it to the first free available space, and then repeats the process again. This shuffles the deck, putting your pages out of order. How to fix the problem: You can disable autoshrink with the following T-SQL command: - ALTER DATABASE mydatabase SET AUTO_SHRINK OFF Using the GUI: In the SQL Server Management Studio, right-click on the database and go into its properties to turn off autoshrink. This option is found on the options tab. File Growth in Percent SQL Server comes with a standard configuration which autogrows transaction log files in databases in 10% increments. The default initial size of the log file is 1 MB. Therefore, the first many growths will be relatively small chunks, but as the log file grows bigger, the incrementing chunks will also grow.
3 The picture below illustrates the development of the file size as well as grow size given an initial file size of 1 MB and 10% autogrowths: When your log file reaches 10 GB, the next growth will be 1 GB as shown by the red line. There we see the problem. When the transaction log file grows, SQL Server needs to zero out all the bytes, so when the file grows by 1 GB, the SQL Server needs to write 1 GB of zero to disk. This happens synchronously, so the transactions, which are happening at the time when the log file is full, will have to wait until this is complete. On modern servers, it usually does not take that long to write 1 GB to disk, but perhaps it is still long enough for your application to get a timeout. No need to say that the 10% autogrow of the log file will have more and more impact, the bigger the log file. How to fix this: Instead of using the 10% default autogrow, we recommend that you change it to a fixed MB size. This number should be small enough, so that your application will not suffer too much when the growth event happens, but also big enough to avoid massive file fragmentation. There are no right answers to all servers, but a number in the 128/256MB area is probably usable in most cases. Moreover, to avoid these zeroing out blockings when the log file grows, it is a good idea to set the initial size of the log file big enough for the expected usage.
4 No Log Backup When an SQL Server database is in Full Recovery mode or Bulk logged recovery mode, the SQL Server does not automatically free up space in the tractions log file when transactions are finished. It will keep the info in the log file, because it thinks that you are going to take a backup of the transaction log file. If there is no backup, the log file will keep growing until the disk is full. When this is the case, your database will roll over. How to fix the problem: Configure SQL Server transaction log backup - or Change the database to be in simple recovery mode. When this is done, the SQL Server will do circular logging, meaning that portions of the log is freed up when there are no open transactions, and SQL Server will go back to the beginning of the log and reuse space when it can. Remember, choosing this solution leaves you without transaction log backup which eliminates the possibility of point-in-time restores. Number of files in TempDB A default installation of SQL Server has one data file in TempDB. You do not need a very busy SQL Server before this may become a bottleneck. In such scenarios, there can be heavy IO activity in TempDB, and that can cause bottlenecks on the allocation pages (GAM, SGAM, PFS). TempDB is used for various things by the SQL Server, most obvious is temporary tables/objects, but it is also used when performing joins/sorting on large data sets which cannot fit in memory.to alleviate such bottlenecks, you simply need to add more data files to TempDB. How many data files you need in order to be perfectly optimized can depend on your specific setup. One data file per core in the server is recommended. So if you have a two socket server fitted with two quad core processors, you should configure TempDB with 8 data files and 1 log file. If those two quad core processors come with hyper threating enabled, you should go with 16 data files. How to fix it: The default data file is called tempdev with the physical file name tempdev.mdf. When adding more, you can simply call them tempdev02, tempdev03 etc. This is how you add one extra file with a size of 256 MB and an autogrow of 256MB: Repeat the query for each additional data file you need and simply change the NAME and FILENAME values along the way. If you are in doubt as to how many files you should add, you can use the following query to help you:
5 No Max Server Memory Configured By default, the SQL Server can use as much memory as it wants to and leave nothing to the operating system. If no memory is left for the operating system, it will start using the page file. The same goes for other services/processes running on the server. When the page file is used, you will experience slow performance, because instead of doing operations in memory, operations will use the page file. The page file is placed on the disk and because the memory is much faster than the disk, performance will suffer.
