@Microsoft: E-Learning Course Database Mirroring

Jul 7, 2006

Hi MS-Guys,

the following E-Learning course has some errors which have to be investigated otherwise the course will be very disappointing for the participants:

Kurs 2938: DatenverfĂĽgbarkeitsfeatures in Microsoft® SQL Server„˘ 2005 (this is only the german subject for the course, the link should apply in english versions as well, as the course is actually in english)

While starting the VLab to setup mirroring, the sqlinstance2 and sqlinstance3 is not started (this sure can be done very easily), another point is that you installed RTM version where database mirroring is disabled by default (sure this can be done by swithcing the trace flag, but the course is not about doing administrative tasks, right ? :-) )

HTH, Jens Suessmeyer.

BUG In Microsoft Learning Resources VB Express Lesson 9 (Database Fails To Update).

May 30, 2006

I recently downloaded Visual Studio 2005 Express along with the Learning Resources for Visual Basic Express video. First let me say that the Learning Resources is an excellent resource for beginners to become familiar with Visual Studio, Database and programming concepts. Although the series is probably too basic for experienced developers you may find it reveals a number of tricks in the Visual Studio 2005 interface.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/vb/default.aspx
 
Problem
I downloaded the VB Lesson 9 Visual Basic Project from Microsoft Learning Resources. With out making any changes to the project I compiled and ran it, making changes to the data and saving the changes. Every thing look great until you run it a second time and see that the changes to the data are all lost.
 
Observations:
1. Changes made to the data from within Visual Studio (Show Table Data) do take effect.
 
2. The in-memory data (DataSet) is changed as you move from row to row.
 
3. The TableAdapter.Update call returns 1, ostensibly indicating the number of rows updated.
 
4. The data in the database is not changed by the TableAdapter.Update call.
 
Operating System: Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2
Other Software installed on this system
20SQL Server 2005 Express
Visual Web Developer 2005 Express
Visual Studio 6.0 Enterprise
Visual Studio .net Enterprise
Microsoft .NET Framework SDK
Microsoft Office 2003
 
 
If anyone can help me understand the cause of this problem I would greatly appreciate it.
 
Thanks
Bob

Learning Microsoft's Implementation Of SQL

Jul 7, 2007

Hi All,

I have Oracle 9i personal edition on my laptop which I use to learn Oracle/SQL including creating and quering tables. With this I have been able to go into jobs confident with being able to query Enterprise implementations of Oracle in a commercial environment.

Now I would like to learn Microsoft/SQL and I was wondering whether Microsoft's SQL Server 2005 Express will be enough for me to learn MS/SQL like Oracle personal edition has.

Regards,

Seaweed

Is Microsoft Free* Elearning For Sql Server 2005 Useful For Learning SQL Server 2000?

Feb 13, 2006

I'm working towards MCAD and as elective I want to do the SQL Server course. The exam is on SQL Server 2000.  I was just wondering whether the online course that Microsoft currently have a available for free at https://www.microsoftelearning.com/sqlserver2005/default.aspx would be useful and applicable to SQL Server 2000, or whether it is sufficiently different product to make it confusing to use this as a learning resource.
Also if anyone can point me toward any webcasts for SQL Server that would be great. I listened to Fritz Onion's 15 part series when I studied  for my ASP.NET exam and would like to do something similar for SQL Server 2000 if any are available.

Mirroring :: Database Mirroring Changes In Application

Oct 12, 2015

Using SQL Server 2008, we would like propose mirroring between two servers of a critical database. Since we initiate, may require to clarify on its purpose and also required changes from application end.Any changes required from OS Level? (I believe both servers IP or Host name should be added in host entries. Mirroring ports should be allowed/open including Principal and mirror server IP Addresses): Windows Team.Any changes required from Application? (Instance name, authentication: user name and its password should be added in web config files): Application Team.Any changes required from Network Team?Also for mirroring both the principal and mirror servers should be with same version, does it only mean SQL Server 2008 versions are enough or does it also mean to say build numbers 10.00.4000 should also be same.URL....

The Database Is Being Closed Before Database Mirroring Is Fully Initialized

Jun 12, 2007

When I issue this command:


ALTER DATABASE foo set PARTNER = 'TCP://10.3.3.1:1234'
I get this error message:




The database is being closed before database mirroring is fully initialized. The ALTER DATABASE command failed.
What does that mean, and how do I fix it?

Database Mirroring Monitor Not Working For One Database

Apr 2, 2008

I set up a new mirror server. Everything is good except that the Database Mirroring Monitor is not working for one of the databases. In the monitor the principal data is showing up as blank

If I look at dbm_monitor_data on the principal most of the data columns (e.g. Send_queue_size) are null where as they have data for the other databases.


Both servers are SQL Server 9.0.2047 Enterprise Edition.


Any idea what might be going on here?


Thanks in advance.

Database Mirroring

Mar 12, 2008

Hi All,

Couple of questions about database mirroing.

1. Once the mirroring is setup is it possible to switch between high-protection and high-performance modes? If it is will I have to stop the mirroring, switch the modes and then restart it again?

2. Let's say the principal server went down and I manually failed over to the mirror server. Mirror server runs as a new principal server for a couple of days and then I bring the original principal server back up. What needs to be done in order to bring transactions on the principal server up to date?

Thanks.

Database Mirroring

Jul 30, 2007

we want to migrate our production server , without taking the database down.so what we did was , we mirrored the databases from production to one of our development servers and we took the prodcution server for uprgrade.

so today we are moving back (mirroring) all the databases from that development server to our new production server.

my question is , when i move

productionserver_old(principal server) - having the script for principal server

development server(mirror server---->principalserver)) - having the script for mirror server , which is now acting as principal server

new production server(mirror server) - having the script for mirror server. will become principal server , once i moved all the databases

now while mirroring between the developement server and the new production server, i have to run the scripts for the mirror server only.

so both the servers are havign the mirror script now...

is that a problem, or any other way i can handle this....

Database Mirroring

Oct 25, 2006

Hi,

Is there a way to automatically mirror/backup a SQL Express database with a SQL Server 2005 licenced system?

They will be on seperate machines on the internet.

I have done manual backup and restores but would like to allow constant updates to allow both databases to be synchronized.

I read that the SQL Server 2005 version has a mirroring facility but I also read that this is not possible in the Express version.

What other (automated) options do I have?

Thanks Andrew

Cross Geo Database Mirroring

Feb 26, 2008

I'm not personally a DBA or claim to be a database expert, instead I am a software architect who works closely with database architects and DBA's. I'm presently architecting a system where we will have a smart client used in both Europe and the United States from the same database instance.

The system is to be used for performance testing of devices and then the results will be available to management through the same smart client used by test engineers etc. The first release is operational in the United States today with Poland coming online shortly.

Today we are weighing our options between having cross-geo database mirroring or merely having the database server in the United States with application server level caching implemented in Poland and the United States.

The .net framework's Windows Communication Foundation is used with a netTcpBinding and the service layer is asynchronous with the reliableSession option enabled.

Does anyone have any feedback on whether you would go with cross-geo database mirroring or would you use local application servers with possibly some caching capabilities at that layer? Please also describe the benefits and any risks associated with each also...

Thanks in advance,

Doug Holland
