You have two major issues.

1.  Old statechanges.  You have 95 million total statechanges in the DB, but of 
these, 91 million are older than your statechange retention. This is caused by 
one or both:
        a.  flooding of statechanges for monitors that are still enabled but 
unhealthy when grooming runs.
        b.  old monitors that flooded data in the past but are now disabled or 
otherwise unloaded.

You need to run the cleanup script I have posted here:  
http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2009/12/21/tuning-tip-do-you-have-monitors-constantly-flip-flopping.aspx

That is a VERY resource intensive script, it cleans this stuff up in batches to 
keep the transaction logs from filling, but man, I have never had to clean up 
60GB before..... so this could take a LONG time and absolutely hammer your 
database server.... so I'd do this on a weekend and monitor the progress.

2.  Flooding statechanges.  You have 400,000 statechanges coming in a day.  
That's a lot, even for a large environment.  You should spend some time tuning 
this environment, starting with the most offensive monitors:  From:  
http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2007/10/18/useful-operations-manager-2007-sql-queries.aspx


Noisiest monitors changing state in the database in the last 7 days:

select distinct top 50 count(sce.StateId) as NumStateChanges,
m.DisplayName as MonitorDisplayName,
m.Name as MonitorIdName,
mt.typename AS TargetClass
from StateChangeEvent sce with (nolock)
join state s with (nolock) on sce.StateId = s.StateId
join monitorview m with (nolock) on s.MonitorId = m.Id
join managedtype mt with (nolock) on m.TargetMonitoringClassId = 
mt.ManagedTypeId
where m.IsUnitMonitor = 1
  -- Scoped to within last 7 days
AND sce.TimeGenerated > dateadd(dd,-7,getutcdate())
group by m.DisplayName, m.Name,mt.typename
order by NumStateChanges desc





Resolving #1 above will give you back a LOT of free space.

Resolving #2 above will keep it that way....otherwise you will be back into 
this boat in NO TIME.

You have 60 GIG of state changes.  That should be pretty obvious.... no?

Quite frankly, I am not sure how this environment is still standing.

:-)

I'm serious.


Ok, the next step is to figure out - are these still ongoing problems flooding 
your SCOM database, or are these old statechanges that are failing to groom or 
not trying to groom for other reasons.

Next (logical) steps:

Find out how many state changes you are inserting per day:

--------------------------------------------
SELECT CASE WHEN(GROUPING(CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), TimeGenerated, 102)) = 1) THEN 
'All Days' ELSE CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), TimeGenerated, 102) END AS DayGenerated, 
COUNT(*) AS StateChangesPerDay FROM StateChangeEvent WITH (NOLOCK) GROUP BY 
CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), TimeGenerated, 102) WITH ROLLUP ORDER BY DayGenerated DESC
---------------------------------------------

Then find out how old your statechange data is:

-------------------------------------------------
declare @statedaystokeep INT
SELECT @statedaystokeep = DaysToKeep from PartitionAndGroomingSettings WHERE 
ObjectName = 'StateChangeEvent'
SELECT COUNT(*) as 'Total StateChanges', count(CASE WHEN sce.TimeGenerated > 
dateadd(dd,-@statedaystokeep,getutcdate()) THEN sce.TimeGenerated ELSE NULL 
END) as 'within grooming retention', count(CASE WHEN sce.TimeGenerated < 
dateadd(dd,-@statedaystokeep,getutcdate()) THEN sce.TimeGenerated ELSE NULL 
END) as '> grooming retention', count(CASE WHEN sce.TimeGenerated < 
dateadd(dd,-30,getutcdate()) THEN sce.TimeGenerated ELSE NULL END) as '> 30 
days', count(CASE WHEN sce.TimeGenerated < dateadd(dd,-90,getutcdate()) THEN 
sce.TimeGenerated ELSE NULL END) as '> 90 days', count(CASE WHEN 
sce.TimeGenerated < dateadd(dd,-365,getutcdate()) THEN sce.TimeGenerated ELSE 
NULL END) as '> 365 days'
from StateChangeEvent sce
---------------------------------------------------


Report back.

Subject: RE: [msmom] SV: scom 2007 R2 db size is huge

A file size of 140GB is not a "problem" although it might feel like a problem 
to you, because your disk is also 140GB.

What matters most is "is there enough free space in the DB for a supported 
operation".  In your case - with 75GB used and 140GB DB size, then yes, this is 
good.

First, let me say - we NEVER recommend shrinking the OpsMgr database DB file.  
This should be left alone.  Shrinking this file can cause some performance 
issues that can only be resolved by creating a new file, and moving data over 
to the new file, and this process can be a bit painful.  In SQL, it is quite 
easy to shrink a file, but it causes some level of fragmentation that a simple 
reindex will not fully resolve.  So if it can be avoided, we recommend it.


Ok, next, moving on to the root question.... with 850 agents, why do I have a 
75GB used space in my database?  Is that large?   The answer is - yes, for most 
deployments, that is a lot of data.  There could be a lot of reasons for this.
Perhaps your grooming is broken.
Perhaps you are keeping some datatype for a really long time.
Perhaps you are massive overcollecting some datatype, like perf, or event data.
Perhaps you don't manage your environment at all, and you are flooded with 
state changes and alert data from untuned management packs.
Perhaps you have written terrible rules and monitors and they are flooding SCOM 
with data.
Perhaps you have something very unique, like a LARGE number of URL's, or APM, 
or network monitoring going on.

The next logical step in troubleshooting.... is to tell us "what is in your 
database"?  Which you haven't done.

Run the large table query here:  
http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2007/10/18/useful-operations-manager-2007-sql-queries.aspx

Tell us what you see - which tables are the biggest, and how big are they.  
Copy the output (in a readable format please) to this thread.

Thank you for replying.  I have checked the both the sites mentioned and 
applied on my DB.  But the opsmgrdb is still on high usage. i have also tried 
to removed orphned entries from the DB. That helped me little. most of the 
microsoft management pack alerts are disabled. we have approximately 100 custom 
monitors configured.

mdf file size =140 GB and disk size where the mdf file located is also 140 GB.  
That means  the drive is fully occupied.

Current Status below:

File_size_MB       : 140 GB
space_used_MB :  75 GB
Free_Space_MB :  65 GB

my gromming settings are configued to 4 days for all.

I am not able to understand why operations databse is this much bigger...Please 
suggest to resolve the issue.  Thank you

Narendra,

do you mean that you only have 4 GB of free space in the OperationsManager 
database? The database needs at least 40% of free space, preferable 50% for the 
grooming jobs. More information can be found in the following blog post: 
http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2013/10/03/opsmgr-2012-grooming-deep-dive-in-the-operationsmanager-database.aspx

This could explain why your database is so huge. According to the official 
sizing tool (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23016), 
your databse should have a size of about 20,44 GB and your datawarehouse 605,56.

Besides the localizedtext-issue, there is also another issue that is described 
in the following blog post: 
http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2009/12/21/tuning-tip-do-you-have-monitors-constantly-flip-flopping.aspx.

Emne: [msmom] scom 2007 R2 db size is huge

Hi All,

I am running with scom 2007 R2 and my operationsmanager database size is 140GB 
occupied.  i am having only 850 server under monitoring.  How to reduce this 
size..?
I believe is huge size that scom DB is using. I have tried Kevin holman 
localised text script and got 4gb size freed which is showing in internal 
database free space.  The free space is not showing in total drive space.  it 
is showing in only internal database free space.

How to make some free space in logical drive where database is hosted.  Please 
suggest me how to get some free space on drive. Thank  you.


Thanks & Regards,

Narendra
