Hi All,
I am trying to design a package that needs to compare two tables in two diiferent servers. Basically I need to insert records into one server by comparing existing records with second table in other server. Is ther any way I can do it with out using Linked server?. Both tables have same structure.
Hope any one will reply soon.
Thanks,
lmp
Setup:
I need to run an Insert query which pulls data from a table located on server A database AA Table AAA conditional on (or JOINED with) Table BBB in database BB sever B. In SQL 2000 it could be done as:
From Server A:
sp_addlinkedserver B
INSERT dbo.ResultsTable
SELECT SourceTable.* FROM B.BB.dbo.BBB SourceTable
INNER JOIN A.AA.dbo.AAA ConditionTable ON SourceTable.RecID = ConditionTable.RecID
sp_dropserver B
In SSIS one of the possible solutions is to use a package which does the following:
OPEN A + OPEN B-> SORT A + SORT B->MERGE JOIN A and B->OUTPUT RESULT
The problem with this approach is that it's extremely slow for large datafiles (50M records each)
Questions:
1) In the procedure above could the SORT step be avoided?
2) Is there another approach to run cross-servers JOIN in SSIS?
Thank you
Hi all,
I have a query that I need to run where I join two tables that both
reside on different servers. I use an INNER JOIN statement to attempt
to join these tables, but for some reason I am getting the following
error message...
"
Cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation."
The query is as follows...
SELECT TABLE_NAME, LEFT(TABLE_NAME, CHARINDEX('_', TABLE_NAME + '_') - 1) AS Abbreviation
FROM mrcsmis.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
INNER JOIN DEVELCAD1.Portal.dbo.dnl_db_names_log AS imp ON (imp.dnl_table_name = TABLE_NAME)
WHERE (TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE')
Thanks

i wanted to combine the data from two tables. these two tables belong to different servers: table1 is from sql server found in cerebrum station and table2 is from mysql server found in copernicus station. i have this code but the problem is i can only use this code if the two tables belong in the same database server.

I ran the following code on one of our servers and I got some surprising results. Those results included backups for that machine but also showed entries for other servers. I don't understand it! I can understand the results being wrong because I coded something incorrectly, but why would another server be listed in bs.server_Name? It appears that the entries are "correct" in that backups were taken on the other server at the time given, but why is it there??? (I put the code together to list the most recent backup for each database on the instance. I hope it is correct.)
select @@ServerName, bs.server_Name, bs.Database_Name,
bmf.physical_Device_Name,
bs.backup_start_date, bs.backup_finish_date,
Case When bs.backup_start_date < Getdate() - 1 Then 'Stale' Else 'Recent' End as Status,
Case When bs.backup_finish_date is NULL Then 'Failed' Else 'Successful' End as Success
from msdb.dbo.backupset bs
Join msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily bmf on bmf.media_set_id = bs.media_set_id
where type = 'd'
and bs.backup_set_id = (select max (bso.backup_set_id)
from msdb.dbo.backupset bso
where bso.server_name = bs.server_Name
and bso.Database_Name = bs.Database_Name

I have 2 tables with the following structure:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table1] (

[RID] [int] NOT NULL ,
[Status] [bit] NULL ,
[SortOrder] [int] NULL ,
[DateModified] [datetime] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]

I am transfering 2 table between 2 SQL server based on GrpRID from table2.
Since RID is identity in table1 sometimes it is different text for spesific
Rid in second server. Some how I need to get the match the right text from server1
to server2 and if text doesn't exists create a bew entry in table1 with the update to table2
wich should reflect correct RID.
I have two production servers with two different databases and I was thinking about using Linked Servers, but never did this before.Found this stored procedure
sp_addlinkedserver('servername').Would you just execute this and then run your query after the SP?
I have user that we just migrated his Access database to SQLServer. All went well with the migration, but then he came up withanother requirement to be able to replicate the database to a localSQL server living on the hard drive of a laptop. Before the migrationhe just copied the entire Access databse to the lap top.I tried using the Copy SQL Server Objects Task to move thenecessary tables from the production server to the laptop, but noticedit doesn't copy over the table Indexes/keys identiy fields etc. Iended up backing up the production database and restoring it to thelaptop database, but wondered if there is any way to move the tables,with their properties from one server to another? I know I can setup the backup process to run as scheduled, but the problem is the dataneeds to be moved on an irregular time table. I thought about justwriting code on the remaining Access front end to empty the localtables and then query the data from the production side to reloadthem, but I'm sure there's an easier way.Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks,Tom

I have two table with the same name that reside in different databases. The two database have the same name, but reside in two linked servers
TABLE A: [ServerA].[ProdDB].dbo.[Orders]
TABLE B: [ServerB].[ProdDB].dbo.[Orders]
How do i find out if the two tables have the same number of columns or if the a column that exists on TableA does not exist on TableB.
Does any one have a script that could help me with this task. Thanks
I am using SQL Server 2005
Hi people!!!
First I'll introduce my situation.
I have the folowing tables:
1.- Table "Codes", DataBase "COD", server 1001
2.- Table "Codes", DataBase "COD", server 1002
Both servers run SQL Server 2000 Edition.
What i need to perform is a check that compares the data stored in both tables in order to know if there is any difference between them. Of course, the structure of both tables are the same.
I use the SP sp_addlinkedserver to link the servers, but the problem is that EXCEPT and INTERSECT didn't work.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks,
Bob
P.S.: Please!!!!!!!!!
Having a little problem with linking to Access tables. I have an Access database that has in it, some linked tables. After setting up the linked server in SQL server, none of the linked tables in Access show up, only the tables that were created or imported show up.
Is there anything you can do to get the linked tables in Access to show up under the tables list in the SQL linked server?
I've run into the following problem using "select rowguidcol from [LinkedServer].[DBName].dbo.MyTable" (as opposed to using "select <rowguid column name>...".
Against a locally-connected database, the following SQL command works as expected:
SELECT rowguidcol from dbo.MyTable
However, If I run the same query against a linked server (using the 4-part notation), it fails with an 'Invalid column name 'rowguidcol'' error:
SELECT rowguidcol from [LinkedServer].[MyDB].dbo.MyTable
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid column name 'rowguidcol'.
I've searched around but can't seem to find any info that tells me definitively that I can't use rowguidcol against linked tables, so I'm wondering if I'm just doing something wrong?
Any ideas on how to get around this issue would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to use actual column names, as this is for generated scripts.
More Info:
> I can select the data just fine from the linked server if I use the column name - so I don't think it's a configuration or permissions issue.
> The row I'm trying to view is, in fact, a rowguidcol. I used the exact same script to create the table on both the local (where select rowguidcol works) and the linked (where it doesn't) servers.
> Both servers are MS SQL 2005 Standard with SP2

The DTS Task Copy Server Objects is PAINFULLY slow.
The Copy Table Wizard is fast but generates an unmanagable DTS and does not bring over the indexes.
Any tips or tricks to copy tables, data and indexes and a reasonable speed?
Thanks,

I got two tables from 2 different server A and B.
I do a OLEDB source [server A] with "select ID, currencyNo, exchangerate from table A"
I do another OLEDB [ server B] source with "select currencyNo, currencyName from table B"
i want to combine these two OLEDB sources with a resultset
"select ID, currencyNo, currencyName, exchangerate from table A , B
where A.currencyNo = B.CurrencyNo"
how do i do this in SSIS? sorry if i m a noob. I dun want to use linked servers. can someone help?
hi
I've got a job which copy tables between different servers .
I am feeding the tables one by one and the process of copying is in a loop so I have cotrol over the copying process.
it works fine but sometimes randomly I am getting
Execution failed with the following error: "ERROR : errorCode=-1071636471 description=SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.An OLE DB record is available.

and the process fails and this might happen for in any point and on any table and sometimes it runs all the way successfully!!
any idea what the problem might be!

We have been using SQL Server 2005 for our applications for some time now and had a question regarding SSIS.
What is the strategy to adopt if we want to have the SQL Server DB installed on one server and SSIS and Reporting Services running on another machine.
When we tried to actually do it, we ran into this problem. We had a package which was scheduled as a job on one of our database servers, A and loaded data into A from a sybase database. This job was working fine.
When we modified the package to load into another database server B, and scheduled the package as a job again on the SQL Agent on A, the package fails. The SQL Agent logs simply say €˜The package execution failed.€™
On enabling logging for the package, the Event logs on the A say €˜Failed to acquire connection €˜ServerB.sy_nawork.SQLuser1€™. Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.€™ The SQL Server log on B logs a €˜Login failed€™ for user SQLuser1.
Why might this be happening?
I believe details of all connection managers used in a package are stored in the package itself. Is that correct.
For this particular package, we are using a connection manager which connects to the database B using SQL Server authentication - user SQLuser1 and the corresponding password. We are sure that the credentials supplied are correct.
Would appreciate pointers to resolve this issue.
Good Day,
I am in the process of moving my ssis package development to a new machine. I have zipped up all of my development/solution files and put them on the new machine...put them in place...but when I try to test them within Visual Studio I am getting a build error that says
Error 3 Cannot create the output file "C:Documents and SettingsmandolinMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsTransfer and Load Enrollment DataTransfer and Load Enrollment DatainCUP Enrollment Data Pickup.dtsx": The device is not ready. . 0 0
Additionally, but related, I can only open some projects within the solution. I am getting the following error when I try to open "some" of the packages within the solution:
The Device is not ready. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070015)
Can someone offer some advice on just what is happening here? I would really appreciate any thoughts or advice.
Thank you in advance.
Hello All,
Has any1 noticed that when they are transferring SQL tables from one server (or machine) to another that the primary keys drop from the table (or is it just me). If so, has someone figured out why? and how to rectify this (apparent) error.
Many thanks in advance for any and all help,

I have used the following script to add the size of chosen tables in all the databases on a given server. What I need to do is to create a GRAND total. Can someone give me a hint?
exec sp_msforeachdb
@Command1 = "print'?'",
@Command2 = "use ?
SELECT CAST (o.name as char(20)) as 'Table', SUM(c.length) 'Record size',
MAX (i.rows) '#of rows',
CONVERT (decimal (10, 4), SUM (c.length * i.rows)/(1024.00 * 1024.00)) 'Approx. size (MB)'
FROM sysobjects o, syscolumns c, sysindexes i
WHERE o.id = c.id
AND o.id = i.id
AND (i.indid = 1 or i.indid = 0)
AND o.type = 'U'
And o.name in ('Table1','Table2','Table3')
GROUP BY o.name
COMPUTE SUM (CONVERT (decimal (10,4), SUM (c.length * i.rows)/(1024.00 * 1024.00)))"

We are trying to populate a table from tables on 2 different servers. We are using an SQL statement that runs fine on the reports server, i.e.
select a.field1, b.field2
from server1.db1.dbo.table1 a join server2.db1.dbo.table1 b on a.field1 = b.field2
Not sure if the syntax is right, but I have it right and working in a query. Anyway, when I try and run this via a SSIS package, is complains that it cannot make a connection to server2. Do I have to set up 2 data sources, or will SSIS use linked servers?
Hi All,
I need to run an Insert query which pulls data from a table located on server A database AA Table AAA conditional on (or JOINED with) Table BBB in database BB sever B. In SQL 2000 I would simply do the following:
From Server A:
sp_addlinkedserver B
INSERT dbo.ResultsTable
SELECT SourceTable.* FROM B.BB.dbo.BBB SourceTable
INNER JOIN A.AA.dbo.AAA ConditionTable ON SourceTable.RecID = ConditionTable.RecID
sp_dropserver B
What do I need to do to perform the same operation in SSIS world?
Thank you !
Hello all,
I currently started working on SSIS. Here is my first assignment; I am trying to get info from all servers. I was able to do it from one server, how can i extend this package so that my package touchs every server and get info from them.
Thanks
This is a question of whether or not to use SSIS to solve a problem.
I need to copy SQL Server database backup files from a server in the DMZ to a fileserver inside the firewall. The SQL Server is not allowed to write it's backup files directly to the fileserver, so they are written to local disk. A connection can be made from inside the firewall to the SQL Server to copy the files off.
So, I'm considering SSIS for the job. Is it possible to use SSIS to perform the file copies from one remote server to another? If so, is the FTP task required, or can File System tasks be used?
An alternative would be Windows scripting, xcopy, robocopy, etc. but I like the features of SSIS and would like to take advantage of it's flow control, error handling, database scheduling, etc.
Any tips, sample code, etc. would be appreciated.
Thanks,
david
Hi, I am trying to use SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition to copy tables from my local server to my hosts server at brinkster.com. In the old version you could use DTS, but everything seems to have got far more complicated now! Please can anybody guide me in the right direction? Thanks a lot.
Hello
I have a production database that i need to refresh to our test environment daily. The database size is 700 MB.
I do not need to transfer the stored procedures and triggers , users and logins.
Would a DTS package that runs every night be the best and the easiest solution to implement or should i look into log shipping and snapshot replication.
thanks
I have 2 SQL server 2000 machines, I need to take a table from each one and combine them together based on a date time stamp. The first machine has a database that records information based on an event it is given a timestamp the value of variable is stored and a few other fields are stored in Table A. The second machine Table B has test data entered in a lab scenario. This is a manufacturing facility so the Table A data is recorded by means of a third party software. Whenever a sample is taken in the plant the event for Table A is triggered and recorded in the table. The test data may be entered on that sample in Table B several hours later the lab technician records the time that the sample was taken in Table B but it is not exact to match with the timestamp in Table A. I need to combine each of these tables into a new SQL server 2005 database on a new machine. After combining the tables which I am assuming I can based on a query that looks at the timestamp on both Tables A & B and match the rows up based on the closest timestamp. I need to continuously update these tables with the new data as it comes in. I havent worked with SQL for a couple of years and have looked at several ways to complete this task but havent had much luck. I have researched linked servers, SSIS, etc Any help would be greatly appreciated.
