1)How to Calculate Memory Usage and Disk Space Usage?

There are 2 stored procs which help you to calculate the memory size and database device usages.

try with sp_configure ‘memory” for memory utilization and memory available

sp_helpdevice – for device space utilization and free space.

2) log space requirements for reorg rebuild

We have a option for shrinking log space like the way how we alter the log space.

alter database ... log on
alter database ... log off

1 2	alter database ... log on alter database ... log off

3)How to find out last table update?
If you have auditing enabled, you can query from the audit table.

4)Recover sa password in Sybase ASE – Step by Step process

If the sa password is lost, the step by step process mentioned below can be followed to recover the ‘sa’ password.

Step 1. Shutdown the server – kill the processes at OS level as it is not possible to shutdown the server
Step 2. Make a copy of RUN_ file say. RUN__backup
Step 3. Edit the RUN_ file to include an argument -psa . Including “-psa” to the RUN file will generate a new password for the ‘sa’ login. After editing , the RUN_ file looks as below.

$cat RUN_TEST_SYBASE15

New SSO password for sa:yjyhzychbtafk8

00:00000:00008:2010/05/05 16:14:01.48 kernel.......................................

Step 5. Login as sa user using the above password.

Step 6. Change the sa password using sp_password command.

$isql -Usa -w132 -c -Pyjyhzychbtafk8
1> sp_password yjyhzychbtafk8,qwerty4321
2>
Password correctly set.

(return status = 0)
1>

$isql -Usa -w132 -c -Pyjyhzychbtafk8

1> sp_password yjyhzychbtafk8,qwerty4321

Password correctly set.

(return status = 0)

Step 7. Remove the -psa argument in RUN_ file. / Copy the RUN__backup file to RUN_ file.
In some production environments use of “sa” accounts are restricted, say like the “sa” accounts passwords are handed over to the DataCentre and the “sa” accounts are locked as part of security.
in such cases though we successfully reset the “sa” password with the below method we won’t be able to successfully login with new password as the “sa” account is already locked.
To overcome this, we need to include a traceflag in the RUN_SERVER file as below.
-T4044\
4044 SA account can be unlocked by rebooting server with trace flag -T4044. If sa (or sso_role) password is lost, add this to your RUN_serverfile. This will generate new password when server started. Please don’t forget to remove this!!!

5)Check if a database user has specific role in Sybase ASE

show_role().

select show_role() - Shows the login’s currently active system-defined roles

show_role().

select show_role() - Shows the login’s currently active system-defined roles

6) How to Create new Database in ASE 15
Code:
create database db_name on data_device_name = size log on log_device_name = size

7) Troubleshooting commands in ASE

sp_who -- all current sessions in the ASE server
go

select @@spid -- this is your session
go

select suser_name() -- the username you're logged in with
go

select getdate() -- what's the time?
go

select convert(varchar,getdate(),109) -- what's the time precisely?
go

sp_helpdb -- list of databases in this server
go

sp_helpdevice -- list of the disk files used by this ASE server
go

sp_who -- all current sessions in the ASE server

select @@spid -- this is your session

select suser_name() -- the username you're logged in with

select getdate() -- what's the time?

select convert(varchar,getdate(),109) -- what's the time precisely?

sp_helpdb -- list of databases in this server

sp_helpdevice -- list of the disk files used by this ASE server

Create your own database to mess around (never create tables etc. in the ‘master’ database):

create database mydb
go

use mydb
go

select db_name() -- this should return 'mydb'
go

create table mytab (mycol int, mystring varchar(40), when_added datetime)
go

sp_help
go

sp_help mytab
go

select * from sysobjects where name = 'mytab'
go

insert mytab values (1, 'my first row', getdate())
go
insert mytab values (2, 'my second row', getdate())
go
insert mytab values (3, 'my third -- getting boring now', getdate())
go

select * from mytab
go
Create another login:use master
go

sp_addlogin yourname, yoursecretpassword
go

use mydb
go

sp_adduser yourname -- needed to get access to database 'mydb'
go

create database mydb

use mydb

select db_name() -- this should return 'mydb'

create table mytab (mycol int, mystring varchar(40), when_added datetime)

sp_help

sp_help mytab

select * from sysobjects where name = 'mytab'

insert mytab values (1, 'my first row', getdate())

insert mytab values (2, 'my second row', getdate())

insert mytab values (3, 'my third -- getting boring now', getdate())

select * from mytab

Create another login:use master

sp_addlogin yourname, yoursecretpassword

use mydb

sp_adduser yourname -- needed to get access to database 'mydb'

Now log out (or start a new isql session) and log in with the new account:

isql -U yourname -P yoursecretpassword -S xxxx ( xxxx is your server's name)

1	isql -U yourname -P yoursecretpassword -S xxxx ( xxxx is your server's name)

Now do the following:

sp_who -- all current sessions in the ASE server
go

select @@spid -- this is your session
go

select suser_name() -- the username you're logged in with
go

use mydb
go

select * from mytab
go

insert mytab values (4, 'my 4th row....', getdate())
go

select * from mytab
gomaster..syslogins --show all existing logins
go

sp_displaylogin yourname
go

use mydb
go

sp_dropuser yourname -- remove yourself from this database
go

use master
go

sp_droplogin yourname -- drop the login
go

sp_who -- all current sessions in the ASE server

select @@spid -- this is your session

select suser_name() -- the username you're logged in with

use mydb

select * from mytab

insert mytab values (4, 'my 4th row....', getdate())

select * from mytab

gomaster..syslogins --show all existing logins

sp_displaylogin yourname

use mydb

sp_dropuser yourname -- remove yourself from this database

use master

sp_droplogin yourname -- drop the login

8) Use the bcp utility to copy out these tables. In addition, maintain a hardcopy by printing the output of the following queries:

select * from sysusages order by vstart
select * from sysusages order by dbid, lstart
select * from syslogins
select * from sysloginroles
select * from sysdatabases
select * from sysdevices
select * from syscharsets
select * from sysconfigures
select * from sysservers
select * from sysremotelogins
select * from sysresourcelimits
select * from systimeranges

select * from sysusages order by vstart

select * from sysusages order by dbid, lstart

select * from syslogins

select * from sysloginroles

select * from sysdatabases

select * from sysdevices

select * from syscharsets

select * from sysconfigures

select * from sysservers

select * from sysremotelogins

select * from sysresourcelimits

select * from systimeranges

9) SQL to find the oldest open or active transaction in sybase ASE

select h.spid, u.name, p.cmd, h.name, h.starttime,
p.hostname, p.hostprocess, p.program_name
from master..syslogshold h, master..sysprocesses p, master..sysusers u
where h.spid = p.spid
and p.suid = u.suid
and h.spid != 0

select h.spid, u.name, p.cmd, h.name, h.starttime,

p.hostname, p.hostprocess, p.program_name

from master..syslogshold h, master..sysprocesses p, master..sysusers u

where h.spid = p.spid

and p.suid = u.suid

and h.spid != 0

10) When you are logged in to ASE you can set a traceflag with the dbcc traceon command.

Example:

dbcc traceon(3604)

1	dbcc traceon(3604)

You can specify multiple values, comma separated.
To turn a traceflag off, use traceoff

dbcc traceoff(3604)

1	dbcc traceoff(3604)

11221 Disables alter table commands to the remote server when ON. This allows users to modify type, length, and nullability of columns in a local table without changing columns in the remote table. Use trace flag 11221 with caution. It may lead to tables that are “out of sync.” (spid). Supported by Sybase, see documentation
11223 Disables proxy table index creation during create existing table or create proxy_table command execution. If this flag is set on, no index metadata is imported from the remote site referenced by the proxy table, and no indexes for the proxy table are created. This trace flag should be used with care and turned off when no longer necessary. (global) Supported by Sybase, see documentation
11228 A 2762 error, “CREATE TABLE command is not allowed within multiple statement transaction” may be reported when executing a SQL INSERT..SELECT from proxy table mapped to a RPC. This traceflag has to be turned on to allow CREATE TABLE command in the remote procedure (for the session) 12.5.3. ESD 5 and 15.0 ESD 2
11229 Use pre-12.5.3 behaviour to import statistics for proxy tables. Supported by Sybase, see documentation 12.5.3
11231 CIS: Connections to remote servers are not disconnected and remain engine affinitied until the client session terminates. The connections can now be dropped and detached from an engine after executing a statement to the remote server by enabling this flag. Exceptions are when the statement is participating in cursor, transaction or stored procedure operations; or when ASE is in either HA failover or failback states. 15.0 ESD 2
11232 A 2762 error, “CREATE TABLE command is not allowed within multiple statement transaction” may be reported when executing a SQL INSERT..SELECT from proxy table mapped to a RPC. This traceflag has to be turned on to allow CREATE TABLE command in the remote procedure (serverwide) 12.5.3. ESD 5 and 15.0 ESD 2
11299 Allows connection information to be logged when a connection to a remote server fails. Supported by Sybase, see documentation
11906 Informational messages from REORG will no longer be printed to the errorlog. 15.0 ESD 2
12628 Data insertion into DOL tables having nonclustered index will be done with the index prepend mode splits disabled, in order to improve disk space utilization. 15.0 ESD 2 Y N
15302 When a subquery appears in the ON clause of an outer join query, the performance may not be efficient. ASE will do optimization for subquery attachment to achieve more favorable performance when turned on. 15.0 ESD 2
15303 Possible performance improvement on a SELECT statement when a BIT column is involved in the WHERE clause. 15.0 ESD 2
15381 When set, the warning message 307, “Index <index_name> specified as optimizer hint in the FROM clause of table <table_name> does not exist. Optimizer will choose another index instead.” is disabled. 15.0.2 ESD 4
15382 Disable “special OR strategy” (see release notes for the fine details) 15.0.2 ESD 2
15556 Allow dump and load in ASE cluster edition with multiple instances active cluster edition
