Expiration Of Subscription ...
Feb 14, 2007
Hi,
Description: In the past I had an issue with the replication that suddenly became expired (no reason at all) and I had to re-do the whole thing from scratch. This is a transactional replication (SQL2.5K -> SQL2.5K) and the subscriber is used as warehouse where applications also inserting data (with neg. seed values for the PKs). This means applying the snapshot from the publisher is not applicable because there are data which will be lost from subscriber.
Question: Since the applying snapshot is not an option for reinitializing the subscription (initially was created without snapshot - from the backup and restore is not applicable at this stage) I need to find implementation way for two things:
1. I need subscription never get marked as expired (I did disable job "Expired subscription clean up" but still the replication can be marked as expired from the "Distribution clean up" job which I am not suppose to disable - this has different function as well - cleaning up the delivered transactions)
2. Safely dropping articles from the publication without applying snapshot to the subscriber (see reason above - num.1). If you force to drop the articles, does this mean that the subscription will be marked as expired after period of time? (This again will lead to problems as above).
Please, give me your opinion and/or best practices how to solve these problems. Other than that I am very happy with the improvements in the replication domain in SQL 2005.
Regards,
Zlatko

Setup:
SQL Server 2005 -> Merge pull subscription via HTTPS -> public retention
period is 7 days
Question:
If for some reason I don't synzhronize in 7 days (lets say the Internet is
down for whatever reason), can I reinitialize the subscription on day 9 and
still upload changes to the publisher or not?
I'm guessing the latter based on this:

I am having a pretty major problem with my SQL server. Everytime that I try to query the database I receive a timeout expired error. Even trying to open the query anylyzer, it presents me with that error. We have a we based ISP management solution and it cannot access the SQL either. This was an all the sudden problem and I have ran the performance monitor to try and look at the statistics. Everything seems like it is checking out. I even tried increasing the Timeout up to 20 seconds and it still will not function properly. Any suggestions?

I have two tables totally unrelated but give the same information, the difference is the duration. I need to create a stored procedure that will give the recent issue dates only, accept if they have already expired. I'm not exactly sure how to do that. We only want the employees to see the current issue date as long as the exclusion has not expired. Can anyone help please. What needs to happen is that the employees need to see only the exclusions that have expired which is based on the Expiration Date.
Code Block
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[SrchIssueDateLstNm_RecntIssueDte]
@StartIssueDate datetime = null,
@EndIssueDate datetime = null,
@Enter_LastName nvarchar(10) = null
AS
SELECT [dbo].[30 Day exclusion].[First Name], [dbo].[30 Day exclusion].[Last Name], [dbo].[30 Day exclusion].[Issue Date],
[dbo].[Extended Exclusions].[First Name], [dbo].[Extended Exclusions].[Last Name], [dbo].[Extended Exclusions].[Issue Date]
FROM [dbo].[30 Day exclusion]
INNER
JOIN [dbo].[Extended Exclusions]
ON [dbo].[Extended Exclusions].[ID] = [dbo].[30 Day exclusion].[id]
WHERE (@StartIssueDate is null or [Issue Date] >= @StartIssueDate)
AND (@EndIssueDate is null or [Issue Date] <= @EndIssueDate)
AND (@Enter_LastName is null or [Last Name] = @Enter_LastName)
ORDER BY [Last Name]

Hello,
Is there a way to find out many days you have left on the trial period or is there a way to find out when it was created. I get the feeling it will just not work one of these days and I'll have to figure out something on the fly.
Thank in advance

I have a question on how the retain parameter works for Backups. If I have a nightly full backup for a database and have retain = 10, does that mean on the 11th day the very first backup will be purged? Will the 11th backup attempt to take up some of the space that was occupied by that first backup? It seems that the 11th backup would be too large for the space that the first backup was taking up. I am fairly new to backups with SQL Server and want to ensure I am setting this up properly. Our goal is to keep backups for 10 days only.

I have a table containing several date fields in which certain events happened, and I need to be able to find the expiration date for renewal. The expiration dates are at the end of the 6th, 12th, or 24th month after the event occurred, depending on the event.
Is there a way to return in a query the last day of month x following a date field? For instance, if the date '3/12/2006' is stored in the field for a 12-month expiration, I need to return '3/31/2007'.
Any ideas?

Hi There
This may seem like a stupid question but i am trying to get the hang of the new security model.
I have not really heard anything mentioned about certficate expiration date when it comes to creating certificates for keys or service broker endpoints etc.
We have created certificates for keys and service broker endpoints, now what exactly happens when the expiration date, by default 1 year i think is reached, will we no longer be able to decrypt encrypted data and will the service broker endpoints stop working etc ?
Or is this expiration date when the certificate can no longer be used to create security objects ? And all security objects already created with this certificate will always work ?
In other words is there ever danger that keys and endpoints or basically any object referrencing this certificate will just suddenly stop working one day, or will all objects work indefinately regardless of an certificate/objects expiration date ?
Thanx

We are getting the following error message sporadically:
Network error code 0x2746 occurred while establishing a connection; the connection has been closed. This may have been caused by client or server login timeout expiration. Time spent during login: total 6108 ms, enqueued 1 ms, network writes 1 ms, network reads 6108 ms, establishing SSL 6107 ms, negotiating SSPI 0 ms, validating login 0 ms. [CLIENT: #.#.#.#]
We are seeing this message because we enabled some DBCC trace flags to try and figure out why our clients are having their connections terminated to the SQL 2005 (x64) server we have in production. It appears that the establishment of SSL is taking a very long time according to the log entry. What is using SSL? I'm assuming it is trying to communicate with one of my domain controllers and I'd like to know what perfmon counters i should watch to see what's going on. Is it making an LDAPS connection or kerberos? Or native ntlm?
We've already updated the NIC drivers/firmware and disabled the TcpChimney setting mentioned in the KB articles, but nothing so far has had an effect. I'm now trying to figure out if my DC is overloaded but don't know what counters to look at.
Thanks
Steve

First question: I have sql server 2005 enterprise eval edition installed. is there a query, command or tool can tell me the exact expiration date? I understand it is 180 day but I still want some way to query the exact date.
Second question: does sql server log any warning message before eval expires?

I have had SQL2005 on a server for a very short period of time. Today I found that I am not able to execute an SSIS package in debug. It give me an error stating that the evaluation period has expired for data transformation services. I went to check the version by querying, but nothing happens when I click on the Server Management Studio link.
Has anyone seen this before or how long the trial version should last?
Does anyone know what version may have been installed on my server?
Thanks,

It seems to me that if a scheduled SSRS report subscription fails ( Status Message - An error has occurred during report processing) , that I actually need to delete the subscription and reconfigure it from scratch. The scheduled job doesn't try to run again automatically (say the next Monday on a weekly Monday schedule).
Is there a way to "reset" a failed subscription without have to recreate the entire subscription?
Thank you
Devon Kyle

Existing subscription already contains table included in the new subscription.
What are the possible causes of this merge replication error?
Could it be caused by a SQL Server Compact Edition User trying to sync their .sdf file after their subscription has already expired on the SQL Server?
Would you expect to see a different message if a SQL Server Compact Edition user tried to sync a subscriber database (.sdf file) with merge replication if it's been longer than the subscription retention period since their last sync?

I would like to filter records with in effective date and expiration date; If there is no record within that range, then check for grace period records ( effective date -30 days and expiration date + 90 days)
Below is the detailed script for sample data...
declare @tab table ( sno int identity, name varchar(100), EFFECTIVE_DATE date, EXPIRATION_DATE date)
insert into @tab (name, EFFECTIVE_DATE , EXPIRATION_DATE )
SELECT 'chandu', GETDATE(), NULL union all
SELECT 'chandu', '2014-02-11 00:00:00' , '2014-03-20 00:00:00' union all
SELECT 'AAA', '2014-01-11 00:00:00' , '2014-05-11 00:00:00' union all
[Code] ...
Output:
/*

Hello,
I am building a winforms .net 3.5 application which connects to a SQL Server 2005 database with SQL server authentication. Is it possible to access the SQL Server password policy and expiration through the .NET 3.5 framework? I would like add the following functionality to my login form:
Ensure passwords meet policy standard.
Prompt a user to change their password when it is due to expire in 5 days or less.
Thanks in advance.

Numerous articles (e.g., http://www.microsoft.com/sql/techinfo/administration/2000/security/securingsqlserver.asp, even one that I wrote, http://www.dbazine.com/sql/sql-articles/cook12) state that to secure SQL Server, the SQL Server services should not run as Local System. That advice is useful only if making the change is not overly disruptive or is even allowable. My two most recent clients have absolutely rigid password expiration policies that require all account passwords to be changed at regular intervals. Realistically, that makes a compelling case for running as Local System.

We need to use SQL Server Authentication for some reason and would like to enforce Password Policy with 90-day expiration period. I found "Change password" dialogue appears when I first logged in with the new user, but don't know
(1)what happens when the user failed to change the password before it's expired or
(2)how a user can change his password in advance of the expiration date with no particular server-level permission.

Hi,
We are migrating our reporting services database from one server to another.
What needs to be done to subscriptions to ensure they work properly. Will they automatically update as part of the migration, or is there a manual process.
We are using Reporting Services 2000 and will be using Reporting services 2000 as well on the new server.
Thanks

Hi all,
I'm creating data driven subscription for parameterized reports. I'm supposed to deliver one report to six different customers. But each customer can see only his own data in the report. This is not a problem. But the problem is I need another report in which all the data can be seen. When I create DD subsription, I chosed Auto increment option for the write mode under "
Specify delivery extension settings for Report Server FileShare" .
But then it creates seperate report for each parameter value. But it does not create the report which contains all the data for all parameter values. How can I make it without creating another report.
Also when I use overwrite option instead of Auto Increment, It creates only one reports. Does any one know why it happens?
Thanks

Hi,
I am doing a repl.in SQL7/NT.
At time of 'Push Subscription wizard' - I used the option "Yes,Initialize the schema and data......" whereas I already had data and schema at the subscriber.
Now my question is what will happen now and how long will this process take(for approx5GB of DAta).
OR should I stop the process - it's already an hour when I started the process.
Any suggestion appreciated.

I have created a subscription pull from one SQL server to another so that the database from one SQL server is replicated to another. But when the subscription runs, no data appears in the subscriber SQL server. When I check the subscription, I see that the database is connecting to the publisher but that is it. I have the login correct but what am I missing? Do the tables in the subscriber database have to be already created and matching the ones in the publisher database before the subscription runs or are they automaticaly created after the subscription runs?
Thank you in advance

Hello all,
I have a data driven subscription with the information about the file name/file extension/ path etc coming in from a database. The problem is that the subscription status after running tells me that things are done and there is no error but the file is not being generated in the specified directory and for that reason the file is not generated at all anywhere on the hard disk. can anybody please help.
The information in the database for the report is as follows
FileName : Test1
FileExtn : True
Path = \ram\C$Reports
Render_Format = PDF
Username = Administrator
Password = password
Writemode = Overwrite
All the fields are varchar(50) in size.
