I'm on a shared MS SQL server, and I have access on 2 databases there.
On the server there are many other database, I guess around 170.
When I want to access my database I open enterprise manager choose the server from the server list and click on "databases" to list all databases. This last step (listing all databases) takes ages to complete, it takes something like 3 minutes to show all databases so I can click my database from the list and do my thing.
Isn't there any way to only view my own databases and not showing the others. I can't access the others so there's really no point in showing them anyway, it only takes time.
IN the enterprise manager I could see my database server but could not see the databases.Bur I can see the databases and database objects in quesry analyzer. What should be the problem and how can see the databases from my enterprise manager. Thanks.
Please forgive my ignorance - I'm completely new to MSSQL.
Our office bought a set of Laserfiche licenses and had to also buy MSSQL to handle the database end of things. Part of my job is to make sure everything gets backed up. I want to use Enterprise Manager to back up the databases which seems straightforward enough - even though I've never done it.
Our Network Admin has installed a temporary USB drive to hold our back-ups until a more permanent form of media can be installed. He is using drive compression to maximize the space available. The server sees it as Drive F:
I created a folder on F: to contain my MSSQL Back-ups. Then I opened Enterprise Manager and clicked on SQL Server Group, which contains two databases:
(local) (Windows NT)
and
CYWD_IMAGE/LASERFICHE (Windows NT)
My understanding is that they both have to be backed up.
I clicked on the first one, then selected the Database Maintenence Plan Wizard from the 'Tools' menu. I stepped through the process (choosing 'all databases') until I got to the point where I could specify the back-up directory. I was able to browse right to the folder I created and choose it. I could then finish the process normally. The problem is that when I selected the second database (CYWD_IMAGE/LASERFICHE) and launched the wizard I was unable to browse to my folder. I could choose the F: Drive but no folder showed up under it. Oddly, it would not even show me my D: partition (just thought I'd mention that in case it is somehow relevent).
I don't see any difference in the properties tabs between these two databases. The obvious difference is the name, and that one says (local) and the other does not.
I really don't want to choose to dump the back-up into the root of F:
I was wondering about a way so that only those databases are shown to a user who has access to them and NOT all databases when s/he expands "Databases" node in enterprise manager.
Since it is by design of enterprise manager therefore it is not possible to hide other databases in EM. Is there anyother tool/ wrapper available for the same functionality?
The need for this arises when one wants to access a database on a shared ISP server containing hundreds of databases and due to slowness of link, connection times out.
Enterprise Manager for MSSQL 2000 (V8.0), connecting to MSSQL 7 databaseserver:Some logins can see the listing of all databases through EnterpriseManager, some cannot. Logins are set up as users in the same databases,and do not have any special server roles.If it makes any difference, none of the logins are tied in to the Windowslogins.Any idea why some of these logins can't see the databases?Regards,Lyle H. Gray
When I proposed start to use SQL Server 2005 for new VS 2005 web sites, one of my co-workers responded that we will update the old SQL Server 2000 databases to SQL Server 2005 when we are ready to use 2005 SQL Server.
Questions: 1. Any expected problems to upgrade old 2000 databases to new 2005 SQL Server? 2. I have installed both 2005/Management Studio Express and 2000/Enterprise Manager in my PC. Any expected problems when running both 2000 and 2005 SQL Server at the same database server? 3. What is the best configuration for running SQL Server 2005 when we have old 2000 databases? Upgade or not upgrade?
On one of our machines, all of the SQL Server 2000components except for the main Server component (SQL Servercore) itself were installed (Management tools, etc) a while agoand everything was running fine. Now I go and add/install theServer component and then Service Pack 3a.It seems that Service Manager won't start up (I get an hourglass cursor)and now I find that Enterprise Manager won't run as well. No errormessages appeared and I don't think I saw anything unusual inthe log file.However, I can use Enterprise Manager on a differentmachine and connect to the database (so the databaseitself seems to be running).Any suggestions as to what the problem might be and how tofix it? I like to see if I can repair this without havingto do a reinstall.Thanks.PF
IF someone can assist me. Everytime I load up enterprise manager the service manager turns off. And the enterprise manager can't connect to the local database. But everytime i turn it back on and try to connect again it shuts it off and around and around we go. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I used Import Data task in SQL server management studio which created a package in file system. Task failed but I decided to debug it in Visual Studio.
In foxpro I have table dumpreg with field hcode char(6) in SQL server table au_dumping2 with respective field refno varchar(15)
Why I get this warning ? [Destination - AU_DUMPING2 [43]] Warning: Truncation may occur due to inserting data from data flow column "refno" with a length of 15 to database column "hcode" with a length of 6.
direction of flow from char(6) to varchar(15) which seems to be safe ?
When I modified column in SQL Server to char(6) and all respective lengths in external and input columns to match exactly warning went away , but I want all foxpro char to be varchar in SQL server .
After that I got
[Destination - AU_DUMPING2 [43]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E21 Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".
Search in forum showed that it may be mismatch of metadata. But I used initially wizard for package generation.
Is there example of package which loads from existing Foxpo ( Access ) table to SQL server , where column names are different but mapped , also safe type conversions occur ( especially I am interested in char(n) => varchar(n) ) ?
I installed SQL Server MSDE 2000 but I can't find how to start it. Does this package include an Enterprise Manager or not? I thought that maybe it was a standard XP Pro feature. I had no problem finding it in W2000 Pro.
Has anyone encountered this error: When you are in Enterprise manager and you select a database then the tables tab and then you select a table and go to open table- select all rows, I get an error--An unexpected error happened during this operation-Query Designer encountered a query error! Please let me know if you have seen this. Also, when I access this from one networked computer I get the same error, then when I access it from another I do not!! The servers are interacting with Pivotal. The one that works does not!!
Hi all, I have SQL 7.0 desktop addition installed on my local win NT workstation. I am able to connect to my local server using Quary Analyser but when i am trying to connect using EM, i am not able to connect. I am receiveing the following error message. __________________________________________________ ___________________________ A conncetion could not be established to "servername" - Specified SQL Server not found. ConnectionOpen(CreateFile()). Please verify SQL server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties(by right clicking "servername" node) and try again. __________________________________________________ ___________________________ I have tried as said in the error message and also tried connecting with "sa" but its not working. I can see that the server is running and i am able to connect through QA.
I am fairly new sql dba in a company and I am sure Enterprise Manager is installed on PC's and it shouldn't. Is there a way of finding out other then visiting each workstation. Thanks in advance..
I am considering upsizing my Access 2000 DB to a SQL 7 server. I was told that having SQL 7 Enterprise Manager is highly prefferd but not essential as I can maintain the upsized DB with Access 2000. The only way that I have been able to find JUST enterprise manager seems to be with purchasing the whole SQL 7 program for $1300! Microsoft cannot be that cruel, that you have to buy the whole program just for Enterprise Manager!
My questions are:
Can I download just MS SQL 7 Enterprise Manager anywhere for a reasonable fee or free?
and
if not, can I continue to use Access 2000 to maintain the SQL 7 upsized DB?
I have access to a SQL 7 server via my ISP Hosting account. I know Enterprise manager comes with the server software, but how can I get a copy of JUST Enterprise Manager?
Is it possible to administer both 6.5 and 7.0 databases from the same SQL Enterprise Manager? I have read that you cannot do this because the 7.0 "plug-in" to the MMC wont work with 6.5 databases.
We had database corruption and cannot access the Enterprise Manager. DBCC returned errors 9000 to 9999 which I can't get any suggestions on how to handle from BOL. Any ideas!!!!! Thanks.
Hi, I would like to know if we can present users to access details database information about the databases on a server through Enterprise Manager. If you create a SQL login and do NOT give it access to any database, if someone logons on your server with enterprise manager, even though he does not have access to any database, he will still see the list of all database on your servers plus tons of sensitive information like database owner. Is is possible to limit enterprise manager to only view information about database that the user has access to?
How can I force users of Ent Manager 6.5 to enter a name/password when connecting to a server that has been registered? I dont want to use the sa name and password so that anyone could use my workstation to access our servers.
Does anyone know how to turn off or disable the auto discovery for Enterprise Manager. Apparently our Network group is complaining that Enterprise Manager is generating noise on the network, it is not signifcant in volume but they complain it impacts there ability to detect hacking attempts on our network because it causes some false positives. I generally keep Enterprise Manager running because I will always have some manual job running from it and we have so many servers it takes awhile for them to all load when I first fire it up.
I have SQL server 2000 client machine on my XP desktop which worked fine until yesterday. Yesterday, I tried to set up client access (a tool from IBM to access AS400) unsuccesfully. Since ever, Each time I try to open a table in enterprise manager, I get the following error message "The query cannot be executed because some files are either missing or not registered. Run setup again to make sure the required files are registered". While when I issue a query in analyzer it works fine.
I did that several times without success. Even, I removed the whole SQL 2000 setup, rebooted my machine, ran set up again for client tools which gave the same result. Also, I re-setup MDAC2.6 SP2 but no way.
Which files are corrupted ?and I don't understand after doing all that, setup goes smoothly without indicating any errors, but still when you open a table in enterprise manager, it gives the same error.
Using MS SQL Server 7. When I go into a table in design view and order by date created, it only orders on the day and not the date (Enterprise Manager) e.g.
When we click on the Query Analyzer Shortcut, it will prompt for a user id and password.but when we expand the databases node from EM and clicks on Tools->Query Analyzer Menu, after selecting a database node, the QA does not prompt for the user id and password. Can any one explain this behaviour of QA..
I am using Mixed mode authentication for my db server.
When I view the database properties using Enterprise Manager, some of the databases on the server are reporting that there is zero space available while others have space available. Does anybody know why?
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of Enterprise Manager? I have the trial copy of 2000, but I need to administer data on a SQL 7 server, and I cannot create stored procedures, add users, or create DTS packages in 2000 that will work on SQL 7. Thanks!
Is it possible to add custom columns to the design table interface. For example could I add custom column for some data on want to store under a table column. I am used to vb.net and I am able to add custom properties to a control. Is this type of customization possible for SQL Server. Is it possible to add a custom tab to the tab control where columns are located at the bottom of the designer?
I installed SQL Server Developer Edition on Windows 2003 server for our sales force. I don't want them to have acces to enterprise Manager and Query Analyser.
Hi all, I am not over familiar with SQL, I am a VB Programmer, however I need to achieve the following.
In Enterprise Manager I have 2 tables A and B.
I need to get a column from A and then scan the entire contents of B to see whether the content, the value from the column in A actually exists in B. The get the next value from A and repeat the process.
