Info

To avoid fragmentation, make the data files as large as possible, based on the maximum amount of dataexpected in the database.For more information, see Guidelines for Data Files and Transaction Logs on page 78.The Server Administration tool displays your new server configuration as a child of the Local node.Note: In addition to creating the server configuration, StarTeam Server adds information about thenew server configuration to your starteam-server-configs.xml file. For more information about this file,see the Administering and Using StarTeam guide.6. By default, all server configurations are set to use the TCP/IP endpoint (port) 49201. However, each serverconfiguration on a given computer must have a unique endpoint so it is recommended that you edit thedefault endpoint.To change the endpoint:1. Select the server configuration.2. Click the Start With Override toolbar button (or select Actions ➤ Start with Override from the mainmenu). The Start with Override dialog box opens.3. Enter the endpoint that you want to use in the TCP/IP Endpoint text box, and click OK.Note: You can also change the location where attachments are stored using this dialog box, but yourarely need to do this.7. Be sure to configure your new server configuration (see the Administering and Using StarTeam guide formore information) and plan a backup schedule for it.Guidelines for Data Files and Transaction LogsBased on the number of users, Borland suggests the following guidelines for data files and transaction logs.Your needs may be different from those shown in the following table.Number of UsersNumber of Data FilesSize of Each Data FileNumber of Log FilesSize of Each Log File 1Up to 15350 MB350 MBBetween 15 and 503300 MB3300 MBBetween 51 and 1005300 MB5300 MBBetween 101 and 3007500 MB5500 MB>3007800 MB6500 MB1 The transaction log file sizes are relevant only if the Transaction log backup is performed frequently.Transaction log backups are essential. After a transaction is backed up, Microsoft SQL Server and SQL ServerExpress databases automatically truncate the inactive portion of the transaction log. This inactive portioncontains completed transactions and is no longer used during the recovery process. The basic advantagecomes with the fact that Microsoft SQL Server reuses this truncated, inactive space in the transaction loginstead of allowing the transaction log to continue to grow and use more space. This is a huge plus from aperformance standpoint.Allowing files to grow automatically can cause fragmentation of those files if a large number of files share thesame disk. Therefore, it is recommended that files or file groups be created on as many different availablelocal physical disks as possible. Place objects that compete heavily for space in different file groups.78 | Using StarTeam with Microsoft SQL Server and SQL Server Express Databases
Running SQL Scripts for Microsoft DatabasesStarTeam Server comes with some SQL scripts written specifically for use with the Microsoft SQL Server andSQL Server Express databases. These scripts help you maintain and tune StarTeam databases. You runsome SQL scripts after installation, some on a weekly basis for database performance maintenance, and somescripts are run for you automatically by StarTeam Server.The SQL scripts for Microsoft SQL Server and SQL Server Express databases that you may run are locatedin the Borland\StarTeam Server 2009\DBScripts\ Sqlserver_Scripts folder.Note: The Sqlserver_Scripts folder contains several subfolders: Create_Stored_Procedures,Drop_Stored_Procedures, Install, Preinstall, and DW (for Data Warehouse). The scripts inthese subfolders are run by StarTeam Server as needed. Never execute any of them directly from anexternal database user interface, such as SQL Query Editor.The following table lists the SQL scripts that you are most likely to need. Some should be run manually on aregular basis. The table recommends the frequency for running these scripts. You may adjust the frequencydepending on the StarTeam usage at your facility. Run scripts at times when the server is least used, such asovernight or on weekends.In addition to running these scripts, you should also run a Purge option from the Server Administration tool toremove deleted views from the database. Borland recommends purging the database after you have deletedone or more views from a StarTeam project. See the Administering and Using StarTeam guide for informationon the Purge option.StarTeam Script Namestarteam_sqlserver_dbcc.sqlstarteam_sqlserver_dbcc_reindex.sqlstarteam_sqlserver_dbcc_showcontig.sqlstarteam_sqlserver_dropall.sqlRun FrequencyWeeklyTwice a week (minimum)Twice a week (minimum)Only if necessaryCaution:• Before running any of the StarTeam SQL scripts for a Microsoft SQL Server or SQL Server Expressdatabase, ensure that the database compatibility mode is set correctly. For Microsoft SQL Server2005-based configurations, set the database compatibility mode to 90.• Be sure to backup your StarTeam database, as necessary, and verify these backups periodically. Youshould restore and test backups of your StarTeam project data on a test system. Restoring and testingyour backups helps to ensure that your data is being backed up correctly.To run a script for a Microsoft SQL Server or SQL Server Express database:1. Install SQL Server Management Studio or SQL Server Management Studio Express from Microsoft.2. Choose Start ➤ Microsoft SQL Server [or Microsoft SQL Server Express] ➤ SQL Server ManagerStudio [or SQL Server Manager Studio Express].3. Design a new query or open an existing one in SQL Server Manager Studio.4. Choose Query ➤ Connection ➤ Connect to connect to the server that contains the StarTeam databaseyou want to access.5. Select the appropriate StarTeam database.Using StarTeam with Microsoft SQL Server and SQL Server Express Databases | 79
