Hi Everyone,
I am looking for a tool which can store SQL I/O and network/sec data. According to this historical data, I can decide whether upgrade my hardware.
Is there any free tool?

SQL Stripes is an application that helps you, the SQL Server DBA, having complete control over your various SQL servers.
From the high-level of monitoring essential components - to the low-level of analyzing your various databases, tables etc…
This is *not* another Query-Analyzer like tool, nor does it intend to be. The idea is that each one of your servers gets a 'Stripe' which contains valuable real-time data on the selected server.
SQL Stripes is an intuitive and easy to use application, which is intended to make your DBA life a bit easier.
SQL Stripes is completely free. Please send your feedback/questions/suggestions
Thanks and enjoy!
I have a Linux machine here at work that I do some development on, along with a few other tasks. It's also on my primary machine at home. Is anyone aware of a SQL Server Management suite that will run (natively - not in a VM) on Linux? I've used Aqua Data Studio in the past, but I would rather not have to pay for another License just for a part-time use.I'm not looking for a full suite of graphical utilities. If I could get the basic functionality of Query Analyzer (query window, object scripting, etc..), I'll be happy.I've googled around, and the pickings have been rather slim. The only thing I've found is something called Transact-SQL Analyzer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlanalyzer/). I haven't tried it yet, but I'll give it a shot. Has anyone used it before? It doesn't make mention of 2k5 support, either.

Does someone know about such a tool? I know there are tools of this type but they cost 600 to 1000 dollars for a single user.
HI
I am trying to find a pure web based backup restore tool that can be used on MS SQL 2000.
I have found a few that claim to be web based, but then it tells you to log into your MS SQL server and make some adjustments.
I know that microsoft Enterprise manager comes with a backup / restore tool. but 1) i dont want to have to install a complete copy of 2005 server, and 2) i dont hav ethe physical space to do it right now anyway. all i need to do is move 2 databases from one account to another.
thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I've been having trouble getting this tool to work with my server/database. I'm using XP Pro, MSDE, .NET 1.1.4322 and IIS 5.1. IIS has been installed and tested with the help of others. .asp pages are being served locally and to another PC on the network. No obvious problem here. When I installed MSDE I used the SAPWD='strongpassword" command to create a password. I also built a new database. I had positive feedback on both of these actions.
Now to the tool - when I activate the administrator it pops with the little window saying Web Server Configuration. It lists the following options:
Desired Port:
IIS
Cassini Personal Web Server
Restore Faults
and Start and Stop buttons.
If I leave the setting on IIS and click Start it opens a webpage entitled Web Data Administrator. Moving further down I have a welcome message and then the line -
Please enter a SQL Server name:
Username: [Desktopob shadowed entry]
Password
Server (local)
Authentication Method:
Windows Intergrated
SQl Login
and then a Login button
If I select SQL Login and enter "sa" as the username and then my password leaving (local) as the server I get the following error:
Invalid username and/or password, you are using a windows login that is not your own, or server does not exist.
I have tried all combination of \desktopsa, sa, you name it. The password I selected is correct because I made a point of writing it down so I wouldn't forget it. I have also tried all the combos using Cassini as well.
This is where I'm stuck at this point. All suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob
Hi!
My problem is...i gut this errormessage in Web Site Administration Tool:
There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store. The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: The database filename can not contain the following 3 characters: [ (open square brace), ] (close square brace) and ' (single quote)
I recieved it after i try'ed to change the default Providers and use another DB then default. Now i want to go back to how it was from start, if i create a user and role - i want VS 2005 to create a SQL Express DB for me. Can anyone help me? I have even tryed to reinstalled VS 2005 but it didn't help.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to get my website back up and running, I lost the db and will have to reconstruct that but in the meantime I would like to get the website back in operation right now I have the following problems.
I receive an error message when trying to create a new user in the web admin tool. see 1A
or I receive another error message saying that the administrator is not authorized to sign onto the db
and I seem to have the authorization settings incorrect for the hashed password settings I had...
Ive looked back through my notes and the last time this happened I created a new database with the web admin tool but my settings are such that this still doesn't eliminate the error messages. Right now the website is in a cannot find server mode.
Thanks for your help.

Still having a problem. does anyone answer these forums? Since Microsoft is not offering support on VWD 2005 and it sends you to these forums for answers don't you think that they should staff the forums? for at least a modicum of support. Who - ever heard of a product being released without a repair system in place? HELP REQUESTED.

is it possible to change the settings on this tool. i want to have it so that it does not time out at all? or is that possible??
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to set up a database role so that users can use sp_readerrorlog through SSMS. It does a check on membership in the securityadmin role.
I have tested it and can see you can grant execute on xp_readerrorlog but the SSMS GUI uses sp_readerrorlog.
I thought I could create a user/certificate and add the signature to sp_readerrorlog but it's not permitted (likely because it's not a normal database object).
So the other solution is to add the users to the securityadmin role but then explicitly deny alter any login (best done with a custom server role in 2012+ but otherwise just manually in 2008). I tested this out and it works, I'm not able to alter any logins or increase my own permissions, I also did a check of what's reported from fn_my_permissions(null, null) and it shows minimal permissions like I'd expect.
Hi all.I'm looking for a tool which should act like some kind of middleware/logical layer bewtween the SQL server and the webbased user interface.- It should be possible to easily create simple web forms (only datainput and output) without programming effort by "clicking" the fieldsand their order on the web mask within an admnistrative interface.- It should also be bossible to add "new fields" to the database,including field type, permissions, value lists etc. (excluding anybusiness logic) without programming effort by administration.I know, that most workflow tools or "Trouble Ticket Tools", based ondatabases have this feature to easily configure new masks and add newfields to the database, but i need it as an tool-unspecific layer forthe MS SQL Server.Thank you very much for your feedback, any ideas are welcome!Best regards, Heiko.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am a bit new to the MSSQL server. In our application, we use so many SQL queries. To imporve the performance, we used the Database enigine Tuning tool to create the indexes. The older version of the application supports MSSQL 2000 also. To re-create these new indexes, I have an issue in running these "CREATE INDEX" commands as the statements generated for index creation are done in MSSQL 2005. The statements include "INCLUDES" keyword which is supported in MSSQL 2005 but not in MSSQL 2000.
Ex:-
CREATE INDEX IND_001_PPM_PA ON PPM_PROCESS_ACTIVITY
(ACTIVITY_NAME ASC, PROCESS_NAME ASC, START_TIME ASC, ISMONITORED ASC)
INCLUDE
(INSTANCE_ID, ACTIVITY_TYPE, STATUS, END_TIME, ORGANIZATION);
Any help in creating such indexes in 2000 version is welcome.
Thanks,
Suresh.

I've been tasked to move our production databases on MSSQL 2000 to 2005. I've supported MSSQL since version 6.5 and performed migrations to successor versions.
Current Environment is MSSQL 2000 32-bit with current Service Packs.
I've performed mock migrations on Test servers upgrading all Production instances simultaneously from MSSQL 2000 to 2005 32-bit. The Test environment is identical to Production minus server name, IP etc. Also I have a separate server with MSSQL 2005 installed where I use the DETACH / ATTACH and BACKUP / RESTORE method for migration / acceptance testing. There are approximately 30 databases totaling 70 GB. This has gone as expected and fairly successful. Vendors have been coordinated with to update code and staff for acceptance testing.
I'd prefer going directly to MSSQL 2005 64-bit instead if possible due to memory benefits etc. This is where I'd like some feedback prior to borrowing a 64-bit server for testing.
Upgrade options:
1. Is it better to migrate from MSSQL 2000 32-bit to 2005 64-bit via:
a. DETACH / ATTACH
b. BACKUP / RESTORE
c. Is one method more advantageous relating to the end result?
2. Regarding XP clients, have issues been experienced with the default SQL Server driver or is an alternate recommended for XP clients to connect to a MSSQL 64-bit server databases?
3. If you have performed this migration and have relevant experience please pass them along.
