Changes To Master/Target Server Configurations
Feb 22, 2006
I've installed SQL Server 2000 and applied SP3a. I see SP4 is available and fixes a lot of things. The only bit I am unsure about is section '5.3.2 Changes to Master/Target Server Configurations'
http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/b/d/1bdf5b78-584e-4de0-b36f-c44e06b0d2a3/ReadmeSql2k32sp4.htm#_5464_sql_server_agent_enhancements_705
"Before you apply SP4, you must complete several steps to upgrade your SQL Server 2000 master/target server configuration. The changes that are introduced with SP4 are not compatible with SQL Server 7.0 target servers, or with any servers not running SP3 or later. This is a change from the original SQL Server 2000 functionality. "
As I'm just starting out I don't even know what 'Master/Target Server' is. I'm only installing to my PC which is XP Pro SP2. Can I ignore this step and apply the patch or do I need to do as it states?
Thanks

Silly question, but why can you not setup a multi-server job and have that same server as a target? What's the rational behind this?

I'm looking for a way to list the target servers associated with a master server. The reason is that we're moving to another master server, and I'd prefer not to move the targets manually.
I've got most of the T-SQL already (sp_msx_enlist, sp_add_jobserver), but I'd like a scripted solution instead of a wizard.

I have several target servers defined, i have a job that needs to run in a serial fashion (ie.. 1 target at at time) if every target kicks off the job at the same time it's going to bog down the disk drives... can this be serialized? or do i need to write a special routine...

I have been experimenting with both XML and SQL Server Configurations. Management would really like to go with the SQL Server Configurations, but I seem to be having problems with them.
The main goal is to be able to create a configuration for each connection and have every package refer to its specific configuration, therefore in the future we could change say our SA password and only have to update this in a few places rather than for every package.
In order to experiment with the problem I am having I developed 2 identical packages, except one uses SQL Server Configurations and the other uses XML. The configurations save the exact same properties. With the XML package I can go into the configuration file and change say the password and initial catalogue properties and have these changes go into effect. With the SQL Server package these changes do not seem to take place. So I guess what seems to be happening is with the XML package the connectionstring seems to be generated with the other properties that have been saved in the configuration, but in the SQL Server package none of this seems to take place and the connectionstring just stays exactly as it is saved in the configuration file.
I was wondering if I just seem to be missing something or if anybody else has experienced this problem and found a solution.
Any help is much appreciated,
Sam

My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?

Hi all
I am trying to create indirect package configurations so that:
1) My configuration data is stored in a SQL Server table, and
2) The location of that table is stored in an environment variable.
Achieving #1 is easy, but when I hit the "Configuration location is stored in an environment variable", I strike problems. I can specify a environment variable no problems, but there doesn't seem to be anywhere in the documentation to describe the syntax of WHAT should go in that environment variable.
HELP!!!!
Thanks in advance

I am using package configurations to hold an email address. I can happily change the email adress when teh config is in an XML file, but when I choose SQL Server to store the package configurations I can change the email address but the changes are not picked up despite coming out of dev studio and back in again - it picks up the default set on the variables tab.
It simply refuses to pick up the email address from the SQL table, but happily creates the dbo.[SSIS Configurations] table with correct entries in the wizard 1st time round.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong ?

I tried to follow this link last night (http://curionorg.blogspot.com/) but when i try to configure my package configuration to use sqlserver i recieved the following error message:
The Table "[dbo].[ssisencryptedconfiguration]" cannot be used as a source for SQL Server configurations. The column "ConfiguredVaue" does not have the expected data type.
consult books online for the schema requirements
I followed the blog line by line. i have closed down my project and created a new test package, new project, still the same error. Its there a property somewhere that needs to be configured to allow package configuration to use encryption with sqlserver? I'm running sql 2005 w/sp2. Its there a hotfix that i'm missing. i have not been able to google an answer.
I have been able to successfully use sqlserver as my package configuration. I wanted to see if i could use the encryption code posted on the blog above. i have seen folks reference it or point other folks to it to use for encypting sqlserver package configurations, i just wondered if they have had the same problem.
thanks

I have two SSIS projects each with different packages. I have setup the packages with configurations stored in a SQL Server table in MSDB. When I create the configuration on the second project it overwrites all of the first projects configurations. Is there a way to to get two different project configurations stored in the same SQL Server table? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
I have a problem using service broker, a send the message from server SSB1(initiator) and a receive this message on server SSB2(target), but I don't receive response to SSB1...
In my server SSB2 has this messages on Profiler:
- This message could not be delivered because it is a duplicate.
- Could not forward the message because forwarding is disabled in this SQL Server instance.
- The message could not be delivered because it could not be classified. Enable broker message classification trace to see the reason for the failure.
Message from SSB1 Profiler:
- This message was dropped because it could not be dispatched on time. State: 1
And the messages not end in both servers
Tks

I set up Log Shipping with just 2 servers primary and secondary. When I run from the Wizard for the very first time keeps failing at the stage of saving Secondary Server Configuration info. When i instead run the generated script this problem disappears but then restoring of transactions fails - the process can backup transactions from the Primary server , copy them accross to the secondary and fails on the restore. Any ideas why.

I'm not even sure this is possible but I'm using MERGE in a process that has 3 source tables (the process steps through each source table sequentially) and I need to delete from the Target database occasionally.
My current code is
sqlMerge = "MERGE " + TableName + " AS target USING @CData AS source" +
" ON target.TotRsp = source.TotRsp AND target.ClientRef = source.ClientRef AND target.dbPatID = source.dbPatID" +
" WHEN MATCHED THEN" +
" UPDATE SET dbPatFirstName = source.dbPatFirstName, dbPatLastName = source.dbPatLastName,
[Code] ....
The Target db data is made up from several different clients and when the MERGE runs it uses TotRsp, ClientRef and dbPatID to uniquely match a source row to the target row and if no match it inserts the source row.
My problem is that when this runs with Source A first, it will delete all merged data from Source B & C. Then when Source B runs it will insert all Source B data but delete all from A & C and so on.
Is there way that that I can include additional clauses into NOT MATCHED BY SOURCE THEN so it knows only to delete when data has come from say Source A. Once the data is in the target table there is no reference to which source table it came from tho.
If there isn't a solution I suppose I could always add an extra column to the target db to indicate which source it came from and then have something like
NOT MATCHED BY SOURCE AND t.Source = 'SourceA'.
That's quite a bit of work my end to do that tho so I'd like to be sure it works.

I was able to build and Preview the report, but ran into an issue when trying to deploy the report that I created. After reviewing various postings on this issue, I still can't seem to get past the issue.
Currently running SQL 2014 Developer Edition, SQL Server Data Tools for VS 2013, and O/S Windows 8.1 all on the laptop. I followed the video and left the default value of LocalHostReportServer. System said LocalhostReport Server could not be found.
I went to SQL Configuration Manager and tried using the Logon as the URL. Still received the same error.
I went to Reporting Services Configuration Manager and used the URL, still received the same error.

Regarding Snapshot replication....
If I have 200 tables on my source DB and 100 tables on my target DB... and I set up a publication w/ just 1 article to be published....
Will the invocation of the snapshot/apply affect any tables on my target other than the article I'm replicating?

Hi, I am less of a technical but more of a analyst professional and right now investgating on various tools / options for the new conversion project I will be leading in insurance client. One of the tools that client want to use is SSIS but the source and target database is not on SQL server but plans are to build a staging SQL server database for transformation. Does SSID supports this kind of ETL process where both source and target system are non SQL servers.
Thanks,

I have a table:
declare tableName table
(
uniqueid int identity(1,1),
id int,
starttime datetime2(0),
endtime datetime2(0),
parameter int
)
A stored procedure has new set of values for a given id. Sometimes the startime and endtime are the same, in which case I update the value of parameter. Sometimes I add a new time range (insert statement), and sometimes I delete a time range (delete statement).
I had a question on merge, with insert, delete and update and I got that resolved. However I have a different question regarding performance of the merge statement.
If my target table has hundreds of millions of records and I want to delete/update/insert a handful of records, will SQL server scan the entire target table? I can't have:
merge ( select * from tableName where id = 10 ) as target
using ...
and I can't have:
merge tableName as target
using [my query] as source on
source.id = target.id and
source.starttime = target.startime and
source.endtime = target.endtime
where target.id = 10
...
This means I cannot filter the set of rows in the target table to a handful of records where id = 10.

I have documentation in the form of extended properties for tables which are subscribers in a replication scheme. The documentation describes the tables in reference to their replication scheme. I don't want to apply them to the source and have them published.I can't apply the extended properties receiving the error, 'don't have permission' yet I am DB creator on all systems. The theory is that I can't modify the subscription. Which makes sense.Can I turn off the replication, apply the extended properties, then turn on replication without causing harm?

I have a SQL Server 2005 box that was moved from a domain environment to a non-domain environment and was never dropped from its original domain before moving over. Subsequently a new domain was created at the data center this SQL Server box now resides in. The machine was dropped from its old domain and joined to the new one.
All the while the service accounts were set to the local admin account. When I tried to start the Configuration Manager I got the message "Connection to target machine could not be made in a timely fashion.". I read some blog entries and tried changing all the service accounts to Local System and the error message still came up.
All of the SQL Server services run fine. It is just this management console that I cannot open. I wasn't with this employer when this box was moved to the data center so I do not know if it worked prior and there isn't anyone here that could give me its history.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi
I did a load testing and found the following observations:
1. The Memory:Pages/sec was crossing the limit beyond 20.
2. The Target Server Memory was always greater than Total Server Memory
Seeing the above data it seems to be memory pressure. But I found that AvailableMemory was always above 200 MB. Also Buffer Cache HitRatio was close to 99.99. What could be the reason for the above behavior?

I got a File with sales orders and their details.
Step 1. First I am filtering the Sales Order information and inserting it in my Sales Orders table.
Step 2.Then I am filtering the details from the sales Order and inserting them in the respective table.
My Problem is that the Sales Order File does not contain the Sales Order key (ID), this is generated by the SQL Server. How can get it in order to use it in the second step? I need it because it is a foreign key in the details table.
Any Idea?

Hi... I was hoping if someone could share me some thoughts with the issue that I am having at the moment.
Problem: When I run the package in my local machine and update local SS DB/table - new records writes OK in the table. BUT when I changed my destination meaning write record into another physical SS DB/table there is no INSERT data occurs. AND SO when I move/copy over that same package into another server (e.g. server that do not write record earlier) and run it locally IT WORKS fine too.
What I am trying to do is very simple - Add new records in a SS table using SSIS . I only care for new rows and not even changed rows.
Here is my logic -
1. Create Ole DB source to RemoteSERVER - using SELECT stmt
2. I have LoopUp component that will look for NEW records - Directs all rows that don't find match and redirect rows (error output).
3. Since I don't care for any rows that is matched in my lookup - I do nothing or I trash the rows
4. I send the error rows (NEW rows) into OleDB destination
RESULTS when I run the package locally and destination table is also local - WORKS FINE;
But when I run the package locally and destination table is in another Sserver (remote) - now rows is written.
The package is run thru BIDS manually so there is no sucurity restrictions attached to it.
I am not sure what I am missing. And I do not see error in my package either. It is not failing.
Thanks in advance!

Hello, I had a question I thought someone might be able to answer before I test my theory.
If I run an outer package through SQL Server Agent and specify it to use a configuration file, will the children packages it call also use the configuration file? My instinct is no it will not.
If this is in fact the case, would it be considered best practice to just specify the configuration file for each package through an indirect environment variable? Is it possible to set an environment variable on the set values tab within sql server agent?
Then my only concern is how would developers test packages on their machines, should they also set up the same environment variable on their machine?
Any thoughts?

I have read many posts about configurations. However, in practice, I cannot solve a problem that is bothering me. I have connection managers (that manage SQL Server 2005 connections) configured in a local package. I have ProtectionLevel = 1 (By the way, where do you state that you want it "DontSaveSensitive", etc?). When I deploy the package to another computer (using the deployment utility) though, I get the error "The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager ... failed". Could someone tell me, very explicitly, how can I use configurations to solve this problem? Or are there other ways to solve the problem? The problem, of course, is that the connection managers' passwords aren't being migrated from a computer o another. Thanks a lot.

I need to investigate about what happened to our production server at the last weekend.i restored it to another server which is development. I restored it under a name "old_master_2015_07_10".
But if I run a query
SELECT *
FROM [old_master_2015_07_10].[sys].[servers]
it actually selects from master.sys.servers, not from my old_master... In order to prove it, I created a linked server in this, development server, and if I run SELECT * FROM [old_master_2015_07_10].[sys].[servers], it selects it. And in database selection drop-down box I also selected old_ master_ 2015_07_10. What I think it apparently recognizes familiar names like sys.servers and redirects the query to the master.
What I can do to select really from old_master_2015_07_10 database? I already thought about renaming sys.servers to something different, but did not do it not to break something in master in case if SQL Server will run it in master as well.

I have never done this in a DR scenario before. What I used to do in SQL Server 2000 was apply the logins to a new installation of SQL 2000 then recover the application databases. I'm using 2005 now and I'm in a different mode where I would like to be able to recover the system (master, model, msdb) to a different server with the same SQL Server 2005 build ---- 9.0.3054. I'm following the procedures from Microsoft where they state to place the instance in single user mode first then invoke SQLCMD then perform the restore. Sounds simple enough.
C:> SQLCMD
> RESTORE DATABASE MASTER from DISK = 'Z:MINIDRmaster_backup_200804200315.bak'
The console is coming back with a message that the backup set holds a backup other than the existing master database. So I suppose that this cannot be done and is only intended for recovery on the same instance.
Any input/experience is appreciated.
Thanks.

So, I'm looking into using an MSX/TSX setup to help manage and monitor jobs, etc.
I took two test boxes and set one up as a Master and one as a Target and got it working...was able to push a job out and it ran and reported back, etc.
So, that's all great, but this was one small limited test. I'm curious to know if there are any gotchas that some of you have experienced that you would be willing to share with me to help prevent me from experiencing the same issues, etc.
I have about 40 instances that I'm considering using this MSX/TSX setup with, the remaining 15 instances would be monitored by something like Quest. Can a single MSX handle jobs on 40 instances? I already have maintenance plans and jobs set up on all the remote servers. Is there a way to transfer their ownership up to the MSX so they can be monitored from there? So far I haven't seen a way to do that.
*ponders*
Actually, one thing I just realized is that I could set up a job that looked for failed jobs. If I pushed that job out to all the TSX servers that could be used to alert me that something failed on a TSX box. That would actually be a great way to do it the more I think about it...Can anyone think of a reason why that is a bad idea?
Thanks!

Has anyone seen this issue before?
Msg 22026, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
The enlist operation failed (reason: SQLServerAgent Error: The target server cannot establish an encrypted connection to the master server 'MSXSERVERINSTANCE'. Make sure that the MsxEncryptChannelOptions registry subkey is set correctly on the target server.)
I did check the registry key (on all servers) and all of them have MsxEncryptChannelOptions set to the default of 2 (used this link as a guide - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365379.aspx).
I have setup the server MYMSXSERVERINSTANCE as the master and currently have 5 targets. This error occurs when I attempt to enlist the 6th server as a target.
Server information:
MSXSERVERINSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Developer Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER1INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Developer Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER2INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Developer Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER3INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Developer Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER4INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Enterprise Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER5INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Enterprise Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER6INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Enterprise Edition (64-bit); Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVERS1-3 are 'nonproduction' level machines used for development and testing of our software. TSXSERVER4-5 are production servers (TSXSERVER5 is actually on an active/passive cluster and is the virtual name). TSXSERVER6 is a server that houses a day old copy of our production data for reporting purposes.
Now, TSXSERVER6 is the odd one here. It's a new server where we are pushing replicated data to for reporting purposes. Aside from the version of SQL Server being for 32-bit and 64-bit the only other difference is the OS:
MSXSERVER - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003, Enterprise Edition
TSXSERVER1-3 - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003, Standard Edition
TSXSERVER4-5 - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003, Enterprise Edition
TSXSERVER6 - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition
Has anyone ran into a situation like this? The obvious thing that comes to mind is that I might not be able to have a 64-bit version of SQL Server be a target to a 32-bit version of SQL Server. But I have been unable to locate any documentation stating this either way. Any suggestions on what to look at next... or better yet if you know the answer already let me know! :)

I have a full backup from ServerA. I then put ServerB in single user mode and try to restore the backup from ServerA. (both are identical servers but have different names)
[*- From command prompt using sqlcmd -*]
USE master
GO
RESTORE DATABASE master
FROM DISK = 'D:BACKUPSserverA.bak'
GO
Msg 3154, Level 16, State 4, Server MSSQL1, Line 1
The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'master' database.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Server MSSQL1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
Any ideas on forcing the restore through T-SQL? The restore works fine from a master backup from itself (ServerB).
