Find and drop every table in a SQL Server Database that contains specific text in the table name

Database Administrator, GDPR, SQL Server, T-SQL, tsql, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

GDPR compliance has given people working in the DBA space the exciting opportunity to drop tables! Tables once considered gold mines are now being treated like live grenades management want rid of fast. This is a prudent stance because if a table contains personal data and it’s not being used for some vital business process why keep it around now? If somehow the wrong person gained access to the data it could have severe reputational and financial consequences. Of course a business should have never kept unneeded personal data but in truth most companies have gathered as much data as they could up until this point even if it wasn’t used as the assumption has been it might be needed later.

Before dropping tables though it is still good practice to rename the table first for a period of time to make sure nothing breaks. Once a sufficient amount of time has passed and you are confident the tables can be dropped without adverse effects the script below can help drop the newly unwanted tables.

If you’ve followed a standard naming convention for renaming unwanted tables, for example prefixing all the targeted tables with “_DropThis_” or something to that effect, this script will provide commands to:

  • Count the number of rows in each targeted table
  • Drop each targeted table
  • Confirm each targeted table has been dropped.

Simply find & replace the text “DatabaseName” with the name of the database that contains the tables to be dropped and “TextTarget” with the text each table name should contain and run the script.

Running the script will produce two tables. The first table will contain the commands to count the number of rows for each targeted table. The second table will contain the commands to drop each targeted table. Open new windows in SSMS, referencing the database to run the commands against, and copy and paste the scripts of each table into the windows. Run the count script first obviously before the drop script. Once the drop script has been run you can run the commented out query at the end of the script below to confirm the tables have been dropped.

You can take the screen shots and/or copy and paste the results of the commands (and the commands themselves) into an email or text document as a simple report to confirm the number of rows dropped and that the tables have been dropped.

How to handle a Database creation request

Data, Database Administrator, dba, Development, Form, How To, Reporting, SQL Server, , , , , , , , ,

If you are working as a DBA you may find that developers will ask you to create a database having given little thought to what the database will be used for or the impact the database could have to the resources or security of the hosting environment.

If you find yourself in that situation I would suggest you walk the requester through the questionnaire from the previous article “How to determine where a new database should be deployed“.

Once you have completed that process I would then suggest that an official request to deploy a new database be made using the DATABASE REQUEST FORM provided here link. If you have a change request process I would still suggest you use this form. Having a database specific request form covers more relevant and vital information.

This is a fairly high level request form with most of the technical details still to be defined by the DBA but it provides documentation of the request and states the requester’s initial expectations and requirements.

Following the database deployment if the actual footprint of the database does not match up with what was agreed the form will confirm if the requested resources were under specced or misleading.

The form is outlined as below.

DATABASE REQUEST FORM image

Some important points the form clarifies:

There’s a difference between requester and owner. If the database runs into any problems you don’t want to be contacting the temporary intern that requested it instead of say the department head.

The application the database supports. Most of the time the database name will have some tie-in to the application name but maybe it does not. For instance the database could be named something generic like Reporting which could be the back end for really anything.

The form asks the requester to prepare a profile for the database. I could have named this section “who is your daddy and what does he do?”. If the requester states they are looking for a OLAP reporting database but operationally it’s running as a OLTP transactional database, that could make a big difference in terms of the resources provided for the database and underlying hardware.

Possibly most importantly the form helps to establish the likely impact of the new database with the Resource Impact Estimation section. For example if a requester asks for 10 Gb of space and states they expect space usage to increase by 5 Gb a year but the disk has lost a terabyte in the first few months the form will clarify who got their numbers wrong.

The user and groups section will clarify who should have access to the database. Effectively everything related to data and data access should be okayed by a compliance officer to confirm everything is GDPR compliant. This form will assist the compliance officer in establishing that.

The Business continuity & Upkeep section is really the domain of the DBA but it helps to get requester input on these matters. For instance establishing maintenance windows.

If you have any additional questions you feel should be on the form please feel free to contact me and I’ll add them.

How to assess a SQL Server instance for GDPR compliance by writing every table and column to Excel

Data, Database Administrator, Excel, How To, Project Management, Reporting, SQL Server, T-SQL, , , , , , , , , , , , ,

This post uses the script I had written before here LINK modified slightly to include a count of each table. If you are a DBA you’re likely assisting compliance offers to find personal identifiable data within the databases at this time. This script will allow you to provide them with a record of every database, table and column on an entire instance. The compliance offer can then sieve through all the columns and highlight any columns that look like they contain personal data for further investigation.

Below is a SQL query that will return the following metadata about each table from each database located on a SQL server database server:

  • ServerName
  • DatabaseName
  • SchemaName
  • TableName
  • CountOfRows
  • ColumnName
  • KeyType

The output is provided in a table format with these additional formatted lines of text which can be used as queries or as part of queries.

  • A Select table query
  • A Count table row columns
  • A Select column query
  • Each column bracketed
  • Each table and column bracketed

The table returned by the query can be exported to excel. Using excels filter option applied to the columns of the table makes finding and selecting specific tables and columns very easy.

This process can be repeated for every SQL Server instance used by the business to generate a single mapped servers master excel file allowing the user to find any table or column available to the organization quickly.

Applying some colour coding like below adds to the ease of use.

How to use:

Simply open SQL Server Management Studio and from object explorer right click on the server name and select new query. This will open a window set to the master database of the server. Copy and paste the SQL below into this SQL Server window and execute. When the query is finished you will have created the table above.

How to map the table structure of all Databases in a SQL Server Instance

Database Administrator, dba, Reporting, sql, SQL Server, T-SQL, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Below is a T-SQL script that will return the following fields for each table from each database located in a SQL Server Instance:

  • ServerName
  • DatabaseName
  • SchemaName
  • TableName
  • ColumnName
  • KeyType

The output is provided in a table format with these additional formatted lines of text which can be used as queries or as part of queries.

  • A Select table query
  • A Select column query
  • Each column bracketed
  • Each table and column bracketed

This query is especially useful from a reporting perspective for a DBA or SQL developer unfamiliar with the structure of the database they are querying. The table returned by the query can be exported to excel. Using excels filter option applied to the columns of the table makes finding and selecting specific tables and columns very easy.

This process can be repeated for every database server used by the business to generate a single mapped servers master excel file allowing the user to find any table or column available to the organization quickly.

Applying some colour coding like below adds to the ease of use.
