Sql Server database Read_Only / Read_Write


The ALTER DATABASE command allows a database administrator to modify SQL Server databases and their files and filegroups. This includes permitting the changing of database configuration options.

Why Read Only ?


When you need to ensure that the data is a database is not modified by any users or automated processes, it is useful to set the database into a read-only mode. Once read-only, the data can be read normally but any attempts to create, updated or delete table rows is disallowed. This makes the read-only mode ideal when preparing for data migration, performing data integrity checking or when the data is only required for historical reporting purposes.
Make Database Read Only
USE [master]
GO
ALTER DATABASE [TESTDB] SET READ_ONLY WITH NO_WAIT
GO

Make Database Read/Write

USE [master]
GO
ALTER DATABASE [TESTDB] SET READ_WRITE WITH NO_WAIT
GO


In case you get the following error message make the database single user:
Msg 5070, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Database state cannot be changed while other users are using the database 'TESTDB'
Msg 5069, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
ALTER DATABASE statement failed.

Execute the following query to make the database single user:



ALTER DATABASE [TESTDB] 
SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE;

Result:
--Nonqualified transactions are being rolled back. Estimated rollback completion: 100%.


To Rename the database:



ALTER DATABASE [database1] SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
exec sp_renamedb "database1", "database2"
ALTER DATABASE [database2] SET MULTI_USER

JavaScript Interview Questions

This is a compilations of all the interview questions related to Javascript that i have encountered.  Q: Difference between window.onload and onDocumentReady? A: The onload event does not fire until every last piece of the page is loaded, this includes css and images, which means there’s a huge delay before any code is executed. That isnt what we want. We just want to wait until the DOM is loaded and is able to be manipulated. onDocumentReady allows the programmer to do that. Q:  What is the difference between == and === ? A: The == checks for value equality, but === checks for both type and value. Few examples: "1" == 1; // value evaluation only, yields true "1" === 1; // value and type evaluation, yields false "1" == true; // "1" as boolean is true, value evaluation only, yields true "1" === false; // value and type evaluation, yields false Q: What does “1″+2+5 evaluate to? What about 5 + 2 +...

Do's and Don't SQL

Do's: Writing comments whenever something is not very obvious, as it won’t impact the performance.  (--) for single line  (/*…*/) to mark a section Use proper indentation Use Upper Case for all SQL keywords. SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, WHERE, INNER JOIN, AND, OR, LIKE. Use BEGIN... END block for multiple statements in conditional code  Use Declare and Set in beginning of Stored procedure Create objects in same database where its relevant table exists otherwise it will reduce network performance. Use PRIMARY key in WHERE condition of UPDATE or DELETE statements as this will avoid error possibilities. If User table references Employee table than the column name used in reference should be UserID where User is table name and ID primary column of User table and UserID is reference column of Employee table. Use select column name instead of select * Use CTE (Common Table Expression); its scope is limited to the next statement in SQL query, instead of...
