DB Engine :: Distributed Transactions Fail On Linked Server

Feb 12, 2009

We get the below error while performing a distributed transaction on linked server. We have several linked servers configured in the source server and all of them succeed with the distributed transaction except on one.
 
We did all the basic troubleshooting and moreover the distributed transactions work fine if we use a remote server instead.

Error:
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "SERVERNAME.REDMOND.CORP.MICROSOFT.COM" returned message "No transaction is active.".
Msg 7391, Level 16, State 2, Line 3
The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "SERVERNAME.REDMOND.CORP.MICROSOFT.COM" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
 
 Test code:
begin distributed transaction
select top 10 * from [SERVERNAME.REDMOND.CORP.MICROSOFT.COM].master.sys.objects
 ROLLBACK

Distributed Transactions With Multiple Instances Of Microsoft SQL Server

Jul 23, 2005

Hi,I'm having a problem running a distributed transaction between twolinked servers that both have multiple instances of SQL Serverinstalled on them. This is the error message that I receive:"The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a distributed transaction.[OLE/DB provider returned message: New transaction cannot enlist in thespecified transaction coordinator. ]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB'ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d00a]."The query follows the format:"BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANUPDATE [LINKEDSERVER1INSTANCE_NAME].DB.OWNER.TABLENAMESET fieldname = alias2.fieldnameFROM tablename alias2JOIN [LINKEDSERVER1INSTANCE_NAME].DB.OWNER.TABLENAME alias1on alias2.urn=alias1,urn"[color=blue]>From what I can gather from various sources the SQL Server must be[/color]named the same as the computer which it is installed on. However, if Ihave two instances of SQL Server, they cannot both be named the same asthe computer. Does anyone know of a way around this or whether I'mbarking up the wrong tree completely?Many thanks.

DB Engine :: How To Point Linked Server To Specific Database / Rename Linked Server

Apr 24, 2015

I am using Linked Server in SQL Server 2008R2 connecting to a couple of Linked Servers.

I was able to connect Linked Servers, but I cannot point to a specific database in a Linked Server, also, I cannot rename Linked Server's name.

How to point the linked server to a specific database? How to rename the Linked Server?

The following is the code that I am using right now:

USE [master]
GO
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver
    @server = N'Machine123Instance456',
    @srvproduct=N'SQL Server' ;
GO
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'Machine123Instance456', 'false', NULL, 'username', 'password'

My problem is..when i am trying to query on these tables its giving me error saying "OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' does not contain table xxxxxx"

Linked Server / Distributed Query

Oct 18, 2000

Three weeks ago we began a project that involved importing data from an AIX DB2 6 environment via a linked server configuration. Following the data import a second query was executed against the db2 environment using data that resides in the new table within SQL 7 in the join statement (a very basic example is provided below) This was all accomplished in sequence via a package.

SELECT F_NAME, L_NAME, PASSWD

FROM SQL7.LOCALSRV.dbo.NEWUSERTBL as new, DB2.SYSIBM.MASTERTBL.OLDUESRTBL as old

WHERE new.USER_ID = old.USER_ID

Originally we had no problems and while the execute time was not exactly speedy it was tolerable as we would revisit optimization after we established if what we were trying to accomplish was feasible. At the outset the first data import to build the local table was immeadeate and then the distributed query to retirieve more info to build another local table against the DB2 server took aproxiamtly 1 minute per user row returned. Currently we are looking at still having an immeadeate data import (a matter of seconds to build the first table)but now we are looking at more than 1 hour returned for 1 correesponding row of data off of DB2. We are utilizing the the IBM DB2 ODBC DRIVER.

Any input or suggestions as to what could be causing this or perhaps a more efficeint way to code the statement would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Linked Server Distributed Query

Feb 13, 2008

I am working on a linked server where a few of the queries use almost exclusively remote tables from 1 other server. I have read somewhere that there are options to specify where a query is performed but can't find it anywhere. Could someone tell me the command and how to use it or point me to something to read about it.

Thanks

Distributed Transactions

May 24, 2001

Hi to everyone!
Any experience handling a Store Procedure that has distribution transactions?
Here is a story.

We have a store procedure #1 that inserts or updates data in two tables A and B on SQL Server 7.0 then it calls another store procedure #2 that:
1. updates C table in the same database on SQL Server from Oracle Server
2. deletes that record on Oracle Server
3. inserts a record on Oracle from table A
4. inserts the same record into table D on SQL Server from Oracle Server.

People who wrote store procedure #1 put Commit Tran before executing #2.
The questions are:
1. Is it correct that we don't have Commit Tran for #2?
2. What do you think about Nested Begin - Commit Tran?

Any help is highly appreciated.

Distributed Transactions

Aug 3, 1998

Does SQL Server actually support distributed transactions over, say, two tables in different databases but that reside on the same server? When I try to execute such a transaction in which one part of the transaction violates referential integrity and hence should not be executed, causing the rest of the transaction to, supposedly, rollback, the transaction does not roll back but instead produces an error message and executes the second, valid half of the transaction anyway.
Any help or suggestions gratefully accepted.

Distributed Transactions ?

Mar 27, 2006

Hi There

I realize this is probably a basic question or at least i hope so but i cannot get distributed transactions working.

BOL is just driving me in circles.
I am running SS2000, MSDTC is up and running on the server.

I have added a trigger to a table where on insert or update the triggers fires and inserts a row to a remote server.

When i execute the update or insert i get the error:
Cannot start a distributed transaction.

I have tried stating BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION before the update but i get the same error, i have also read up on SET REMOTE_PROC_TRANSACTIONS, but this is not a remote sp.

Can anyone please reccomend a good link as to how to get distributed transactions to work.

Thanx

Distributed Queries Possible W-out Linked Server Registration?

Mar 13, 2008


We are migrating a database that makes use of distributed queries. In other words, it queries data from other databases on the same server, as well as from databases on linked servers.

The use of linked servers as well as linked databases (for lack of a better term) presents a challenge since we will need to register various new linked servers in the target environment. Ideally, we would like the database to be portable such that we will not have to worry about registering linked servers regardless of where it is hosted.

Is there a way to write distributed queries so that do not rely on linked servers/databases? For example:

SELECT * FROM [ServerName].[Database].[Owner].[TableName]


If there is such a method, it would make our database much more portable in terms of server migration.

TIA.

Heterogeneous Distributed Transactions.

Dec 12, 2001

I am using SQL server 7.0 and i have created oracle8i linked server(Using MSDAORA as provider) in it.
When i run distributed queries between SQl server and Oracle server it works fine.But when i try to run distributed transaction between two servers ( BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION..)it reports an error saying Distributed transactions are not supported by MSDAORA.

My question is; is it possible to run distributed transaction between SQL server and oracle server (where oracle server is a linked server in my SQL server)?


Actually i want to run this transaction in DTS package which updates and transfers data amongst various servers.


Thanx

Distributed Transactions In SQL 2000

Nov 10, 2004

We just upgraded from SQL 7 to 2000 and for some reason I am unable to perform distributed transactions. I keep getting the following error:

OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDASQL' ITransaction Join:: JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d00a]. Operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' was unable to begin a distributed transaction

I tried a few of the fixes recommended on the microsoft website but they did not solve the problem. We are still using the same O/S (Windows 2000 Pro), so the only thing that has changed is the server.

Any help would be appreciated.

Oracle Distributed Transactions

Nov 5, 2001

I am attempting to update an oracle table from a insert trigger on my SQL table. When using a trigger to run a sql command against the ole db oracle client (linked server) a distributed transaction is initiated and i get a message stating. "The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' was unable to begin a distributed transaction."

I can update the oracle table through a query however just not throught a distributed transaction.

However according to all the documentation i can find it states that I should be able to perform this.

Can anyone shed any insight?

SQL 2005 Distributed Transactions From WCF

Jan 22, 2008



Hello,

I've been redirected here from the Transaction Programming forum becuase I have e peculiar issue with SQL 2005 running INSERT stored procs from multiple WCF services all withing a TransactionScope.

The original post is http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2720665&SiteID=1&mode=1

The story goes, I have SRVC A with starts a TransactionScope which in turn calls SRVC B & C in sequence based on processing rules.

SRVC A is a Sequential Workflow which Starts and Completes the TransactionScope
SRVC B Creates a new Customer into the database
SRVC C Creates new Accounts for that Customer and Initialises the accounts with funds


The DB Tables underneath are Customer, Account and AccountLog

DDL




Code Block
CREATE TABLE [Member].[Customers](

[CustomerId] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Name] [varchar](32) NOT NULL,
[CreatedUtc] [datetime] NOT NULL ,


CONSTRAINT [PK_Customer] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(

[CustomerId] ASC
)

CREATE TABLE [Bank].[Accounts](

[AccountId] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[CustomerId] [int] NOT NULL,
[CurrentBalance] [money] NOT NULL,
[LastUpdateDate] [datetime] NULL,
[CreatedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL,
[timestamp] [timestamp] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Bank_Account] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(

[AccountId] ASC
)

) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
ALTER TABLE [Bank].[Accounts] WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Account_Customer] FOREIGN KEY([CustomerId])
REFERENCES [Member].[Customers] ([CustomerId])

CREATE TABLE [Bank].[AccountLog](

[AccountLogId] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[AccountId] [int] NOT NULL,
[Amount] [money] NOT NULL,
[UtcDate] [datetime] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Bank_AccountLog] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(

[AccountLogId] ASC
)
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
ALTER TABLE [Bank].[AccountLog] WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_AccountLog_Account] FOREIGN KEY([AccountId])
REFERENCES [Bank].[Accounts] ([AccountId])






NB. I've removed most fields not essential for this example.

So from SRVC A I invoke SRVC B and the Customer is created, however when I get to SRVC C and the accounts are to be created I get a lock. Only when the Transaction aborts due to timeout, do I see in SQL Profiler that the call to the SP that created the Account is executed but eventually rolls back as it is part of the distributed transaction.

Now, If I set the Isolation level in the TransactionScope to ReadUncommitted (urgh) the problem remains. When I set the IsolationLevel to Read Uncommitted in the SP that creates the account the problem remains but when I remove the FK constraint the problem disappers. The other curious thing is that with the Customer -> Account FK removed and when SRVC C calls to insert funds into the AccountLog which also updates an aggregated total in the Account from within the same transaction scope and with Account -> AccountLog FK constraints in place there is no locking even with Isolation Serializable.

I'm quite at a loss as to what could be causing these issues. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks

Andy

I have a database containing my own tables and data and I wanted tobe able to query this against an accountancy program which has an ODBCdriver. This was never a problem with MS Access and Jet but I hit Jet'slimitations and have moved to SQL.Creating my own SQL database was no problem, but I was unsure of thebest way to be able to be able to have my SQL tables and my accountancysoftware tables appearing in the same Access front end.I created a linked server to the accountancy program. This wassuccessful in that I could see all the tables below the linked server inenterprise manager.My problem occurs when I try to bring the data from these tablesinto my SQL database.I create a new view in my database:-SELECT *FROM OPENQUERY(SAGE_SERVER, 'SELECT * FROM STOCK')(My linked server is called 'SAGE_SERVER' and I am trying to retrieveall columns from the STOCK table.)I then try to save this view and get the following errors.ODBC Error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The operationcould not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' was unableto begin a distributed transaction.[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]OLE DB Error Trace[OLE/DBProvider 'MSDASQL' ITransactionJoi JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d00a].Thanks in advance,Marcus Thornton.

Distributed Transactions Between Servers On Different VLANs

Oct 18, 2006

Hi there,

I have two SQL servers, SERVERA and SERVERB. They are on two different VLAN's within our corporate network. They are physically only about 5 feet apart. SERVERA is SQL2005 while SERVERB is SQL2000. I am running a distruted transaction as a result of an insert on SERVERA which then causes a Stored procedure stored on SERVERA to insert a record on a table on SERVERB. I know my syntax is correct, 'cause I can get the Process to work between two servers (one SQL2000 and the other SQL2005) on the same VLAN. But when I run it in the problem environment, I get the following error message:

SQL Execution Error

Executed SQL Statement: INSERT INTO Tablea(recordid, recordtext) values(3, 'Testagain')

Error source: .Net SQLClient Data Provider

Error Message: The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCL1" for linked server "SERVERB" was unable to being a distributed transaction.



I have checked to make sure that MSDTC is running and it is on both servers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! - Eric-

Distributed Transactions Between SQL2005 And SQL2000

Oct 17, 2006

Hi there,

We have two servers, one (we'll call 'SERVERA') has SQL2005 running on it. The second (we'll call 'YELLOWSTEONE') is running both SQL2000 and SQL2005 on it. The SQL instances on YELLOWSTONE are 'YELLOWSTONESQL2000' and 'YELLOWSTONESQL2005'. As a linked server, I have an entry for YELLOWSTONE which then links to the SQL Server of YELLOWSTONESQL2000 on the server network name of YELLOWSTONE. By them selves they seem to run fine. However, if I have trigger that Runs on SERVERA to do a distributed transaction on 'YELLOWSTONESQL2000', I get the following error:

OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "YELLOWSTONE" returned message "Login timeout expired".

OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "YELLOWSTONE" returned message "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.".

Msg 2, Level 16, State 1, Line 0

Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2].

If You can provide me any assistance, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks! - Eric -

Running A Distributed Query Against A Loopback Linked Server In SQL Server 2005 Is Not Supported

Aug 27, 2007

I receive the following error message when I run a distributed query against a loopback linked server in SQL Server 2005:
The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) has cancelled the distributed transaction.

To resolve this problem, I was told that running a distributed query against a loopback linked server is not supported in SQL Server 2005. And I am suggested to use a remote server definition (sp_addserver) instead of a linked server definition to resolve this problem. (Although this is only a temporary resolution, which will deprecate in Katmai)

However, I run into another problem when I use the remote server definition. I receive the following error message:
Msg 18483, Level 14, State 1, Line 1
Could not connect to server 'ServerNameSQL2005' because '' is not defined as a remote login at the server. Verify that you have specified the correct login name.

SQL Server 2008 :: View Creation Using XML Column On Linked / Distributed Server?

Sep 4, 2015

A recent SharePoint upgrade has rendered several views obsolete. I am redefining them so that our upper level executive reports show valid data.(yes, I know that doing anything to sharepoint could cause MS to deny support, having said that, this is something I've inherited and need to fix, pronto) The old view was created like so:

USE [AHMC]
GO
/****** Object: View [dbo].[vwSurgicalVolumes] Script Date: 09/04/2015 09:28:03 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[vwSurgicalVolumes] AS
SELECT

[code]....

As I said, this view is used in a report showing surgical minutes.SharePoint is now on a new server, which is linked differently (distributed?) I've used OPENQUERY to get my 'new' query to work;

SELECT *
FROM OPENQUERY ([PORTALWEBDB], 'SELECT
--AllLists
AL.tp_ID AS ALtpID
,AL.tp_WebID as altpwebid
,AL.tp_Title AS ALTitle

[code]....

My data (ie surgical minutes, etc) seems to be in the XML column, AUD.tp_ColumnSet . So I need to parse it out and convert it to INT to maintain consistency with the previous view. How do I do this within the context of the view definition?Here is a representation of the new and old view data copied to excel :

<datetime1>2014-08-14T04:00:00</datetime1><float1>2.000000000000000e+000</float1><float2>4.190000000000000e+002</float2><float3>1.600000000000000e+001</float3><float4>8.110000000000000e+002</float4><sql_variant1 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:sqltypes="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2004/sqltypes"

[Code] ....

can't format it to make it look decent. InHouseCases =2, InHouseMinutes=419, OutPatientCases =16, OutPatientMinutes=1230. This corresponds to the new data I can see in the XML column; 2.000000000000000e+000 is indeed 2 and 4.190000000000000e_002 is indeed 419.

Doing Transactions With Linked Server(ole Db Provider)

May 22, 2004

Hi all,

When i begin a distributed transaction..., do i need to always
set xact_abort on?

But when i tried to put custom error handling to roll back a transaction with a linked server , it seems its impossible (as set xact_abort on, already automatically rolls back the transaction)

Does anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks in advance

Transactions Using Oracle RDB Linked Server

I would like to select some rows from the Oracle RDB and then Update those specific rows afterwards. Whenever I try to do this in a transaction (BEGIN TRAN) I get an error "Driver not capable". Is there any way to do this in a single transaction?

Server Alias/linked Server ALWAYS Uses A Distributed Query?

Apr 4, 2008



Can someone please shed some light on what seems to me to be a common requirement.

If I create an alias or linked server to Server1 - say Alias1 - on Server1 and then use that name in a query on Server1, a remote/distributed query is always used (even though we are running on the local server and that overhead is completely unnecessary).

Is SQL Server really not capable of deciding that
select * from Alias1.db1.dbo.table1
and
select * from Server1.db1.dbo.table1
should be optimized and executed exactly the same when Alias1 is Server1, but that it is a distributed query ONLY when Alias1 is really referring to a remote server? I realize that the four part name is not necessary when I am referring to objects on the current server, but I am trying to write code that is server instance independent.

It just seems that if that is not possible, then the only way to create system independent stored procs that can run in dev, staging, and production environments and work with multiple databases on multiple servers is to create all sorts of scripts to regenerate all the procs whenever you move a database between servers?

If SQL Server is even close to the enterprise big iron server that MS now claims it is, it surely needs to support running in dev, staging, and production environments and work with multiple databases on multiple servers?!

I'm really looking for someone to tell me I'm missing something simple, and of course you can do this - but complex workarounds are invited too :-)
This is not something I am investigating as an academic exercise, I am already doing this, but I have to figure out how to do it better because with all these unnecessary distributed queries, performance is horrible.

Thanks
Sean

Distributed Query From SS 2000 To Access Catalog Views On SS 2005 Via Linked Server

Aug 24, 2006

I am trying to write some admin only procedures which will collect information to one of my development server from other production and development servers.
 
I have created linked servers to access these other servers on the development server. This development server is SQL Server 2000 EE. Other servers which I want to access are 2000 and 2005 (vaious editions)
 
E.g I have another development server called PRODTEST which is SQL Server 2005 and on the development server I have created a linked server pointing to PRODTEST called TESTLINKSRV. I want to access new object catalog view (as I do not want to use sysobjects)
 
When I run the following query
 
SELECT * FROM [TESTLINKSRV].[DBNAME].[sys].[objects]
 
I get following error,
 
OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error:  OLE DB provider does not contain the table: ProviderName=' TESTLINKSRV ', TableName='" DBNAME "."sys"."objects"'].
 
Msg 7314, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
 
OLE DB provider ' TESTLINKSRV ' does not contain table '"DBNAME"."sys"."objects"'.  The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table.
 
So I try this query
 
SELECT * FROM [TESTLINKSRV].[DBNAME].[sys.objects]
 
and I get following error
 
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
 
Invalid object name TESTLINKSRV.DBNAME.sys.objects'.
 
So bottom line is how do I access catalog views on a 2005 server from a 2000 server using linked server?
 
I hope someone understands what I am trying to achieve. Please let me know what is it that I am doing wrong.
Thank you

Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 Linked Server Transactions

Dec 21, 2006

Hi All,

I am writing an interface between SQL Server and Access. I have chosen to use a linked server using the Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 provider. One of the requirements is to have multiple SQL statements in one transaction, which is where I am encountering the problem. (see below)

BEGIN TRAN

INSERT INTO ACCES...Table

Msg 7390, Level 16, State 2, Line 2

The requested operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "HES" does not support the required transaction interface.

I am having a really really hard time finding documentation on the Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 provider, specifically I want to know for sure if it supports the ITransactionJoin interface.

The main question is - does MS Access linked servers support transactions?

Thank you for your help,

I have exausted all resources available to me in finding out the answer.

Thanks,
Eric

I  have used TransactionScope class. Example Reference: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/mosessaur/TransactionScope04142006103850AM/TransactionScope.aspx   The code is given below.  using System.Transactions;   protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)    {  System.Transactions.TransactionOptions transOption = new System.Transactions.TransactionOptions();         transOption.IsolationLevel = System.Transactions.IsolationLevel.ReadCommitted;         transOption.Timeout = new TimeSpan(0, 2, 0);         using (System.Transactions.TransactionScope tranScope = new System.Transactions.TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.Required,transOption))         {            using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["nwConnString"].ConnectionString))            {                int i;                con.Open();                SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("update products set unitsinstock=100 where productid=1", con);                i = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();                if (i > 0)                {                    using (SqlConnection conInner = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["pubsConnString"].ConnectionString))                    {                        conInner.Open();                        SqlCommand cmdInner = new SqlCommand("update Salary set sal=5000 where eno=1", conInner);                        i = cmdInner.ExecuteNonQuery();                        if (i > 0)                        {                            tranScope.Complete(); // this statement commits the executed query.                        }                    }                }            }            //  Dispose TransactionScope object, to commit or rollback transaction.        } } It gives error like
 "The partner transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8004D025)" The database I have used is northwind database and pubs database which is by default in sql server 2000. So, Kindly let me know how to proceed further.  Thanks in advance,Arun.

SQL 2012 :: Transaction Isolation Level And Distributed Transactions

Mar 5, 2015

I vaguely remember reading somewhere that all distributed transactions are executed at Serializable Isolation Level "under the covers."

1. Is this true?
2. What does "under the covers" mean in this case; i.e. will I not see the isolation level represented accurately in requests?

Seeking Testing Volunteers W2K MTS/DTC To VMS DECdtm Distributed 2PC Transactions

Jul 20, 2005

Hi,I am seeking the help of volunteers to test some software that I'vedeveloped which facilitates distributed two-phase commit transactions,encompassing any resource manager (e.g. SQL/Server or Oracle) controlled byMicrosoft's Distributed Transaction Coordinator in a Windows2000environment, with any resource manager under the control of DECdtm (e.g. Rdb(or Oracle via the XA Veneer)) in a VMS environment.[Yes, at some stage, I hope to sell this software and make money out of it,so unless you have a large philanthropic streak or are simply a techie wholikes to stay on top of Windows<->VMS connectivity issues, then you may wishto look away now. But if you do choose to participate, then rest assuredthat I have no interest in your personal or company details. (Just yourwork-rate :-)]What differentiates my Transaction Manager software from existingTransaction Monitor packages that are already in the marketplace (and whyyou should be interested) is that it is based on the Transaction InternetProtocol TIP standard. (RFC 2372) For those of you who don't know, thebeauty of TIP's "Two-Pipe" strategy is it's application-pipe (or middleware)neutrality. Whereas most XA implementations mandate homogenous TransactionMonitor deployments (such as Tuxedo everywhere, Encina everywhere, MQSerieseverywhere, ACMSxp everywhere and so on . . .), hotTIP from TIER3 Softwaregives you complete freedom to choose the middleware product(s) that bestsuite your particular application and heterogeneous network needs.Would you like to talk to VMS with TIER3 Sockets, COM or DCE/RPC? BEAMessageQ, IBM MQSeries or HTML? The choice is yours and yours alone. Butonce you realize that you need to encase your critical transactions withinthe ACID properties of a true Heterogeneous Two-Phase Commit then you willcome to the conclusion that you need a Transaction Manager that looks a lotlike this.Another drawback of traditional "One-Pipe" strategies is that they precludethe run-time determination of transaction participants. (Functionalitywhich may be advantageous in a wide-area or Internet based application.)Anyway, this is what I have: -On the Windows side, you need absolutely *NO* additional software! I'llreply to this note with a brief description of the COM+ and DTC functionsthat you would need to invoke in order to successfully push a MTS/DTCtransaction to VMS. NB: These are standard Windows APIs that are fullydocumented on MSDN.On the VMS side, I have a VMSINSTAL saveset that (all zipped up) is some150KB that I'm happy to e-mail to you along similar lines to the VMShobbyists (non-commercial use) license. I'll reply to this note with anInternet Daemon (INETd) example of code that uses my software to cedetransactional control, over an SQL insert into a Rdb database, to MTS/DTC.It's under 500 lines long and contains all of the DCL, 3GL, SQL required toproduce a working example of a TIP-2PC capable TCP/IP auxiliary server. Thisexample will insert a row into the MF_PERSONNEL.Employees table on the VMSside in co-operation with Windows2000 MTS/DTC client that is inserting a rowinto the NORTHWIND.Employee table. Commit them all or roll them all back.So, in summary, If you'd like to volunteer to put hotTIP through it's pacesthen simply reply to this mail.Regards Richard MaherPS. The following are a few functionality restrictions with the currentversion of my software that may effect your decision to participate: -1) Transaction has to be started/mastered/coordinated by W2K MTS/DTC2) Transactions cannot be PULLed from VMS and must be PUSHed from W2K3) No cluster-wide recovery.(If a txn falls over after being prepared then you have to wait for thatspecific node to become contactable again even though that lovely RDMrecovery job is sitting on another node protecting the database until myhotTIP TM tells it to commit or abort.)4) There is currently no Alpha or Itanium version available. The Alpha portis currently in progress but, for the time being, you'll either need a VAXor a VAX emulator on your PC.

Using Transactions Causes Database Connection To Fail

Feb 8, 2006

In one of my packages, I set the package-level property called TransactionOption=Required. During run-time I saw an error saying "[Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "SQL_DW". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection. ". When the property is changed to anything other than Required, it works fine (the calling package that calls this package is not involved in a transaction).

The machine running the packages is Windows Server 2003, and so is the database where the data lives. I verified that the machine containing the database does has Enable Network DTC Access checked in Control Panel -> Add/Remove Windows Components -> Application Server.

Is anyone else having this problem?

SQL 2012 :: Enable Promotion Of Distributed Transactions For RPC - Set To TRUE Or FALSE

May 14, 2015

It is my understanding that when having LinkedServers, the option "enable promotion of Distributed Transactions for RPC" should be set to TRUE, so we can rollback , if needed, remote transactions. At least, that's my understanding of that setting.

Having said that, the TRUE setting is affecting this particular TSQL code, inside an sproc, which I would prefer not to alter:

Insert into #TempTable
EXEC ServerB.MyDatabase.MyStoreProcedure
@param1= '',
@param2= ''
When set is set to TRUE (current setting) I get this error:

OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server "ServerB" returned message "The partner transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions.".
Msg 7391, Level 16, State 2, Line 28

The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server "ServerB" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.

... when set to off, the error goes away.
