DB2 Credential Storage For DB2 Connection Manager
Oct 9, 2007Hello,
Our department will create several SSIS packages that will contain connection managers that use the IBM or Microsoft OLE DB provider for DB2. In every case, we will have to use a specific user name and password.
We need one point of reference for the password for the multitude of packages in case the password changes. I'm guessing that we would do this with a single XML package configuration that each of these packages could use. If this is the case, how can it be done securely?
Are there other ideas that I should consider?
Thanks!

SQL 2012 :: Create Credential With Password Masking
Sep 19, 2014I need to give the below script which contains CREATE CREDENTIAL query to an app team.
CREATE CREDENTIAL crdntl WITH IDENTITY = '<service_acct>',
SECRET = '<pwd>'
GO
My concern is i don't want the password to be visible. Basically i want to use this credential to create a proxy which is then used to run SQL Agent backupjob on number of SQL servers. Also, i cannot leave the SECRET value as blank (as the MSDN suggests.)
Is there any way to mask the password OR any other alternative solution.
Create Trigger That Prevent Order Being Processed If The Amount Is 0 In Storage
Feb 9, 2006When i process a order in table Orders_t i would like to check in storage_t if we defenetly have it in storage. .... if we have it in storage, i decrease the "amount" by 1 ..(amount -1), and process the order. Otherwise it will return nothing.
This is what i´ve come up with so far:
CREATE TRIGGER checkInStorage
ON orders_t
FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
DECLARE
@tOrderId char(3),
BEGIN
SET @tOrderId = (SELECT orderId FROM INSERTED)
--check if the amount in storage
IF EXIST(SELECT amount FROM storage_t WHERE orderId = @tOrderId and amount >= 0)
BEGIN --if it return true, i update the storage by decrease the amount with one
UPDATE storage_t
SET (amount = amount - 1)
WHERE orderId = @tOrderId
END
this doesn´t work...
Hiding Secret Columns From Users
Nov 23, 2005Hi,On my SQL Server 2000, I have a table of data (tblAllData) containing anumber of columns, some of which are 'secret'.I have to let some users access the database using ODBC from an Excelsheet, and I would like that they do not know at all that the columns exist.I tried creating a view for them (qryAllData) that only selects thecolumns that should be visible, but when the creating theODBC-connection, both the query and the underlying table shows up.If I select the table as datasource, the query-builder in excel shows alist of all the columns, including the secret ones. If I try selectingthen, of course, an error occurs.I would like either that the columns for the table don't show or thatthe table does not show at all - and only reveals the existence of theview to the odbc-client.Is that possible?Here's what I tried so far:<pre>USE DbAllDatasp_addlogin @loginame='ODBCAccess', @passwd='ODBCAccess', @defdb='DbAllData'sp_grantdbaccess 'ODBCAccess'sp_addrolemember @rolename = db_denydatawriter, @membername = ODBCAccessREVOKE ALL FROM ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.syscolumns TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.syscomments TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysdepends TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysfilegroups TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysfiles TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysfiles1 TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysforeignkeys TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysfulltextcatalogs TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysfulltextnotify TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysindexes TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysindexkeys TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysmembers TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysobjects TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.syspermissions TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysproperties TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysprotects TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysreferences TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.systypes TO ODBCAccessDENY SELECT ON dbo.sysusers TO ODBCAccess--allow selectingGRANT SELECT (idx, col1, col2) ON tblAllData TO ODBCAccessGRANT SELECT ON qryAllData TO ODBCAccess</pre>TIA,M
View 5 Replies View RelatedSQL 2012 :: Distinct Storage Tier Of Remote BLOB Storage (RBS)
Oct 27, 2014How to implement distinct storage tiers on SQL Remote BLOB Storage (RBS)?
I want to use this SQL Feature to move files(images, videos, pdf files) from a database to a distinct database dedicated to RBS. Then I want to have several storage tiers, where objects will be saved and moved according access frequency. Old data will be arquived in cheap storage, but it must be always accessible if needed.
Description:
- 1st and main tier: new and frequently accessed objects stored in high performance storage;
- 2nd tier: automatically move older or less accessed objects to an inexpensive and different storage tier;
- in all cases, all objects must be accessible to all users, but accessing to archived objects(2nd tier) will be much slower;
Can't Install IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server On Windows 2003 X64 Storage Server, How Can I Fix The Pkg?
Jan 14, 2008I am a Windows developer for the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server (TSMS) product.
Our product installation is built with InstallShield and uses the Windows Installer.
On a new installation of Windows 2003 x64 Storage Server R2, at a customer's site, the TSMS product fails to install.
The install of the OS has version 3.01.400.3959 of the Windows Installer and I see no newer version that installs.
Part of our product is 32 bit (console) and another part is x64 (server).
When installing I can see that the install's default is being redirected/reset to C:Program Files (x86)TivoliTSM after it is explicitly set by a custom action to ..Program Files.. . I further observe that our custom actions to write 64 bit registry entries are being refused.
REGSAM samMask = KEY_ALL_ACCESS;
if ( regIsWow64Process () ) samMask = samMask | KEY_WOW64_64KEY;
lStatus = RegCreateKeyEx( hLocalConnectKeyRoot,
szSubkey,
0L,
NULL,
REG_OPTION_NON_VOLATILE,
samMask,
NULL,
hKey,
&dw ) ;
The above fails to create the key.
We have tried four versions of our TSMS spanning many changes but the install acts the same.
This does not happen on any other Windows OS we test on but we do not test on Windows 2003 Storage Server R2 being that it is an OEM product. We did test on Windows server 2003 R2 x64 and do not see this problem.
Do you have any suggestions on how to tackle this problem?
I have full installation traces but can only see that the registry work is being refused. I can't see why.

Credential Does Not Take Effect
Mar 13, 2008I have a sqlserve, which service account is 'local system', running in machine A.
A credential ,which associated a windows user U1 in machine A, mapped to a sqlserver login Login1.
A file named 1.txt that only can be accessed by U1 in machine A.
A CLR procedure P1 that would read the 1.txt file.
I encounter a error when i access the 1.txt file through P1 as Login1:
A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user-defined routine or aggregate "HelloWorld":
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'E:1.txt' is denied.
System.UnauthorizedAccessException:
at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
at System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy)
at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options)
at System.IO.StreamReader..ctor(String path, Encoding encoding, Boolean detectEncodingFromByteOrderMarks, Int32 bufferSize)
at System.IO.StreamReader..ctor(String path)
at StoredProcedures.StoredProcedure1(SqlString fileName)
.
I think it need a credential when a sqlserver login access some resource outside the sqlserver, so i add a credential and mapped to the login
any suggestions would be appreciated.
And please correct me if i have any inaccurate concept.
Searching Encrypted Data; Using MAC Secret Data
Aug 10, 2006I just finished reading an article on how to search encrypted data efficiently and they suggested creating a new column with a Message Auhtentication Code. To be honest, reading the aritcle makes my head hurt. I can hardly understand what they were doing myself and I can't begin to explain it to a developer.
Are there any easier ways to search encrypted columns for a speciifc match? If not, does any have some stored procs that implement this messy MAC stuff?

Proxy Account/Credential
Feb 14, 2008There is one thing that€™s confusing me in creating a proxy account.
I am trying to get an SSIS package configured as a SQL Server job and execute it from a non-sysadmin login. But when I execute it gives the error message:
Non-SysAdmins have been denied permission to run DTS Execution job steps without a proxy account. The step failed.
I know that we have to create a proxy account for this to happen and creating of proxy account prompts me to choose a credential, and that is where I do not understand the logic. From MS website I can find the following, but it is confusing to me
This proxy account must use a credential that lets SQL Server Agent run the job as the account that created the package or as an account that has the required permissions.
ref: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;918760
I tried reading all the related articles, but still the process of creating the credential is confusing to me, can someone throw some light on the logic of proxy/credential here?
Thanks

XML Datasource Credential Issue
Feb 6, 2007I have a report using an XML data source. The data source is calling a web service method which returns the XML file. The security setting is "Use Windows Authentication (Integrated Security)" in the report. The web service and report are both deployed to ServerA.
The web service is pulling data from a file share. Only certain users have access to this share and they are identified in the <authorization> element of the web.config file in the web service.
If I open Internet Explorer on ServerA and go to //localhost/Reports, I can navigate to the report, run the report and everything works fine.
If I open Internet Explorer on ClientZ and go to //ServerA/Reports, I can navigate to the report. However, when I run the report I get a "Failed to execute web request for the specified URL". I do not believe my Windows Credentials are getting passed to ServerA from ClientZ.
Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong in my set-up?
Thanks,

Jul 9, 2014Due to a previous (mis)configuration, i need to grant readwrite permission on a share from a MSSQL DB User.The SQL user will launch t-sql queries on demand and they cannot be scheduled.
I've created a credential object in SSMS, configured it with the correct AD user and mapped it to the MSSQL DB user.Now, if i execute a simple t-sql backup:
BACKUP DATABASE [DB] TO DISK = N'IP.ADD.RE.SSshareDB.bak' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'DB-Full Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10

I get an access denied error, monitoring the sqlserv.exe process via procmon, i see that the Sql Server process is not impersonating the AD user configured in the credential, it still try to access using the local machine account .
Best Way To Confirm Password Change For A Credential?
Jun 8, 2007Looking for opinions here on what is the best way to programmatically test that a password change to a credential has occurred successfully.
The password change was made using Alter Credential, and I can see in sys.credentials that the credential was updated by the tool that handles these updates. I would just like to be able to confirm that all of the credential updates were successful (in other words, they authenticate correctly) before anything starts to fail.
Assume that the number of SQL Servers is too great to manually check them even if the whole team worked on it together.
Thanks in advance!!

SQL 2012 :: What Account To Use For Identity When Creating Credential And To Use As Job Owner
Aug 12, 2014We are running SQL Server 2012 on Windows 2008 Server. I created a credential with a proxy account. In creating the credential, it asked for an Indentity and Secret. I used my windows login and password. Now, I have tested the credential and proxy account by executing a Job which calls a SSIS Package. What is the 'best practice' to use when creating a credential? Should the credential be created with another windows login, created with the same abilities as my windows login, with a non-expiring password? Should that new windows login be used as the owner of my job with the Agent?

Dec 23, 2003Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I am developing a document storage application for an intranet that will store various Word, Excel, and PDF documents. Most of the examples I see utilize SQL Server and an image field rather than the FileSystem Object to store documents. My concern with this method is that some of the documents may be several hundred pages (not exactly sure of the actual file size yet, but they must be fairly large). My question is, where does the use of SQL Server become impractical for this type of application? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Storage Strategy
May 30, 2006Hi guys.
I am currently developing a system thats stores exchange stats in a db. Since our customers are companies with 20 employees up to 5 000 there a a big difference in the volume of data needed to be stored.
We currently thinking of supplying a SQL Server Express DB to the small customers and suggest a SQL Server to the bigger.
But since I would like to use the same structure for both types of customers I wonder how should i design the storeage.
Since the could be from 500 records a day up to 20 000. There are quite simple recordes with only simple datatypes. about 15 fields with no more than 10 chars each, mostly 2.
Should i separate the data in diffrent tables for a week or a day etc.
Since I am only going to filter data on 1 or 2 fields the data will be easly indexed.
The reports generated will almost always only use 1-3 months of data, but historical reports have to be possible.
My question are ofcourse:
Whats the best solution for me?
Thanks in advance:)

View 2 Replies View RelatedImage Storage
Jun 19, 2007I have recently designed and built my first database using SQL server 2005 express. I have included an image (BLOB) column in one of the database tables. This is a bad idea according to some experts, and some say it is OK!
I am currently carrying out a trial with just 3 pictures via Visual Basic 2005 express forms, and there is no problem so far as the images are displayed for each record. But I anticipate between 300 - 1000 images for the table, and this could pose real problems for SQL server 2005 express and Visual Basic 2005 express, I guess.
I have just been reading that the cost of storing large images in the database is too high! I have also read it's better to store images (BLOB) into the file system because it is cheaper to store them no matter how many there are.
But the question is how I can reference an image in this path: C:PictureProductGrocery 0052745.jpg in the database table, so that when I select a record Visual Basic 2005 forms the image is displayed accordingly, similar as when stored directly in the database table? Your help very much appreciated.
Varchar(max) And Off-row Storage
Jun 20, 2007From what I've read, if a row contains more than 8060 bytes and has varchar(MAX) columns in it, the data in those varchar(MAX) columns will be stored off-row. But what happens if you have two varchar(8000) columns instead and both contain more than 4030 bytes, is the data for both stored off-row? If so, just for that row, or for all rows in that table? And is there ever a good reason to have two varchar(8000) columns in a SQL Server 2005 table, instead of using varchar(MAX)?
