Rename NT Server And SQL Databases

Dec 14, 1998

We have an NT 4.0 member server in a production domain which has SQL 6.5 loaded with a number of databases. There is a requirement to rename the NT server to another name. Will we have to reinstall SQL and reload any databases after the server is renamed? If not - are there any other considerations/registry changes necessary to ensure SQL will run correctly?

Thank you for assistance.

How Can I Rename My ReportServer Databases?

Oct 12, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to move my Reporting Services databases from one server to another one. On the old server there was only a single instance so my databases were named ReportServer & ReportServerTempDB. On my new server I have multiple instances and, after installation (which I didn't perform), the databases on the new server are ReportServer$SQL_VS11 & ReportServer$SQL_VS11TempDB.

I was able to successfully restore both databases and rename them at the time of restore and also restore my encryption key but now when I try to view one of the reports I'm given the error:







Invalid object name 'ReportServerTempDB.dbo.PersistedStream'.


















I found this article:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159093.aspx

It states that "This error occurs because the ReportServerTempdb name is stored internally and used by stored procedures to perform internal operations. Renaming the temporary database will prevent the stored procedures from working properly."

This leads me to believe that what I'm attempting to do is not possible. I asked the developer in charge of the reports if we could simply republish but he informed me that we would lose history in this case. I may have to simply leave the old database names alone which would be inconsistent with our corporate naming schemes. Can anyone offer a suggestion?

Thanks,
Pat Brickson

Rename Login And User

May 31, 2000

Is it possible to rename Logins and users in SQL Server 6.5. I can find no provided way of doing this although the only references to the name I can find is the login name in syslogins table and the user name in sysusers (in each database). The system catalog diagram implies that all joins are done via the SUID field within each table. Can I simply update each entry to the new name and proceed? I have tried it on a test server and have seen no ill effects thus far. Anyone else tried this?

Grant Permissions In All User Databases

Jan 19, 2001

Hello together,

can anybody help me. I'm looking for an easy way to grant permissions to a user in all user databases. I already have a script which grants permission to all views and userdefined tables within one database, but since I have to run it in about 100 databases it's still quite timeconsuming.
Is there a way to execute that script in all user databases at once ???

Managing User Access To Databases

Aug 21, 2002

Scenario:
1. Access to database objects is based on database roles.
2. Application administrators handle the assignment of users to database roles. Application administrators are first line managers, typically; they are not DBA's and not Help Desk staff.

Question:
What products are available to simplify the management of user access to databases in the aforementioned scenario?

TIA to all respondents.

Moving Some User Databases To New Server

Apr 10, 2008

Hi!

I have a SQL 2000 server with a lot of databases (about 100) and I would like to move a great deal of them (+/- 50) to a new SQL 2005 server. All the databases I would move has the same word in the database name. Let's say the all include "Customer" in the Database name.
It would be a huge job to detach and attach every db manually. Is there a method that can detach db's based on a query againts the master db with a select on the name of the db?

If so, I also need to attach the db's on the new server with a script after moving the files to a new location.

Any good ideas?

How To Find Out Which Databases A User Have Access To?

Apr 3, 2007

Hi, my first question, tried to use search first but couldnät find what I need.

Hopefully someone has asuggestion.



I work for a ISV producing HR applications.

When user starts the applications the program shows all databases that the user have access to. This is done by select all names from master..sysdatabases and then trying to "USE dbname" to see if user have access,. Users doesn't have sa rights.



This procedure takes approximately 90 secs for a server with 500 databases and that has become a problem.



Does anyone know off a faster method, any suggestions?

How Can I See My Databases In Management Studio Express, As A Limited User?

Apr 28, 2008

I installed SQL Server 2005 Express, and Management Studio Express, while logged on as an Administrator of my XP Pro machine. When I switch to my limited user account, Management Studio Express seems not to be aware that SQL Server is even running on the machine (although Configuration Manager can see it and reports that it is running). I'm sure I've missed something simple, but I can't find the answer anywhere... how can I get access to my local SQL Server from my limited user account?

URGENT: Problems With Guest User In SQL 2005 Restoring Databases From Sql 2000

Sep 18, 2006

Hi all.

I don't know if this is the right forum to post this question, but here it goes.

We have restored into sql 2005 the database backups made in sql 2000. We connect with trusted connection and application roles, and when trying to execute a transaction to another database (with the guest user), we get a permission error.

Does anyone know if, apart from restoring the databases, we should do something else to get the guest user working the same way as with sql 2000 in the restored databases?

Thanks in advance for your help.

SQL Security :: Adding A Windows Login Did Not Permit Access To End User Databases

Oct 24, 2015

Deleting a Login from a server instance and adding it back did not show that the login was still mapped to databases. In SQL Server 2008, adding a Windows Login did not permit access to end user databases until the Windows Login was mapped to various databases. In SQL Server 2012, once a Windows Login is added to SQL Server Security, it may access ANY end user databaseWe use the following to circumvent this problem, Windows Login by Windows Login: DENY VIEW ANY DATABASE TO [TESTTest1]

SQL 2012 :: Report GUEST User Access Status In All Databases On Instance Level

Apr 17, 2015

Below query tells us if guest user is enabled or disabled in a particular database

SELECT dp.name, CASE perms.class WHEN 0 THEN 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END AS 'Enabled'
FROM sys.database_principals dp
LEFT JOIN (SELECT grantee_principal_id, class FROM sys.database_permissions
WHERE class = 0 AND type = 'CO' AND state = 'G') AS perms
ON dp.principal_id = perms.grantee_principal_id
WHERE dp.name = 'guest';

Do we have a query which can also add the database name to above query output? The output must have columns with data against Name,Enabled,Database name

How to find last login date/time for user DML acitivity on databases on Instance?

Is there any way we can find our the last login date/time for databases?

Note: 1. We can find if the SQL Trace is running and store.This is not good solution
         2. Audit logins off/on is also not good solution.
         3. Using DMV's also not good option, if reboot sql server instance then historical values can not see.

Rename

Jun 6, 2008

i am trying to set up a way of renaming a table in a sp.

ive been using

exec sp_rename 'old table', 'new table'

however if i try and specify to database and owner i end up with a weired db.owm.db.own.table name in the outcome. ive tried putting using it without specifying a db name in a sp and then sched job to exec the sp but it doesnt rename, probably because it doesn know which db to look for the ld table name in. however the sched job doesnt fail?

any ideas?
