Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric. why for this script?
-
this script will give you the database name,
backup date, and subsequent growth between each
backup.
i'm getting the "Arithmetic overflow error...", but don't know why.
thoughts?

what's your biggest database size?

Try this query...
DECLARE @dbname sysname

my database is nothing... at around 50gb.
ponnapalli,
tried your script... same issue.
thoughts?

Your problem is the numeric(5,2), changing it to numeric(6,2) fixes the issue:
DECLARE @backed_up_page_count numeric(10,0)
, @backed_up_page_count1 numeric(10,0)
SELECT @backed_up_page_count = ((50 * 1073741824.0) / 8192) -- 50GB
, @backed_up_page_count1 = ((1 * 1073741824.0) / 8192) -- 1 GB
SELECT @backed_up_page_count, @backed_up_page_count1
, CONVERT(numeric(9,2),(@backed_up_page_count * 8192)/1048576)
, CONVERT(numeric(6,2),(((@backed_up_page_count*8192) * 100.00)
/ (@backed_up_page_count1*8192))-100)

andy... thanks for the correction, but getting the following
error:
Server: Msg 8115, Level 16, State 8, Line 4
Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric.
referencing line:
SELECT CONVERT(char, backup_start_date, 111) AS [Date], --yyyy/mm/dd format

Hmm. Biggest database I can test this on using SQL2000 is only 42Gb, but it works there with no problems.
All my really big databases (600Gb +) are on SQL2005, and when I run the same query there I get this error:
Msg 512, Level 16, State 1, Line 6
Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, , >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.
I have my own version of your query (looks like we lifted it from the same source!), and I use mine in a stored procedure (original author properly credited, of course
) . I get no errors at all with my version, even on 600Gb databases, so I've posted it here. I haven't got aroud to doing a DIFF on the two code portions to see why mine appears to work where yours doesn't, but try it anyway:/****** Object: Stored Procedure dbo.sp_track_db_size_used Script Date: 19/05/2005 12:54:09 ******/
CREATE procedure sp_track_db_size_used
(@dbnameParam sysname = null)

Purpose:To calulate the file growth percentages for a given database and to show you the rate at which
your databases are growing, so that you can plan ahead for your future storage needs.

Usage:Run this script in the master database to create the stored procedure. Once it is created,
you could run it from any of your user databases. If the first parameter (database name) is
not specified, the procedure will use the current database.
Example 1:
To see the file growth information of the current database:
EXEC sp_track_db_size_used
Example 2:
To see the file growth information for pubs database:
EXEC sp_track_db_size_used 'pubs'
