Linked Server From Cluster
May 6, 2008
We currently run a mixture of SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 systems, all of which run under the same domain user account. We are trying to reconfigure these systems so that each server has a dedicated service account in the domain.
I'm trying to get my clustered SQL 2005 server to talk to a SQL 2000 server using a Linked Server connection. This works fine for all of our existing systems (shared account). The service account used by all the sql servers has an SPN setup for each linked server. It is not working when I try to connect to my new server that uses a different service account. Here are some details:
SQL Cluster: Windows name PRDJOB01 (nodes named JOB01A and JOB01B). The SQL name is SQLJOB01 - WIndows 2003/SQL 2005 latest service packs for both
Linked server: DEV04INSTANCE1 - Windows 2003/SQL 2000, latest service packs for both.
SQLJOB01 runs under the account SQLService. It has an SPN for MSSQLSvc/DEV04.MYDOMAIN.COM:1234 where 1234 is the TCP port for the instance INSTANCE1.
DEV04 runs under the domain account SQLDEV04
I have tried configuring both DEV04 and SQLDEV04 to be allowed to delegate any service
Every time I try to connect to my linked server it fails with a "login failed for user '(null)'". If I create a linked server on a SQL 2000 system (also running under the SQLService account) to DEV04INSTANCE1, it works fine.
Do I need to setup an SPN for each node of the cluster to register the SQL instance name (SQLJOB01)? The Technet document that discusses setting up a virtual server (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/319723) has not been helpful for a cluster, despite being referenced in the BOL article on setting up linked servers for clusters.
Thanks

We are currently having the following problem. When trying to connect using "Be made using the login's current security context" I am getting the following error message "Login Failed for NTAuthorityAnonLogin". Yesterday this worked. The setup is as follows
SQL2008R2, nine instances on a cluster. The instance can use "current security context" when both instances are on the same node ie instance 1 node a to instance 2 node a , but when one is on node a and the other is on node b, i.e., instance 1 node 1 to instance 2 node b, we get the error above.

Need to set up a linked server in two node SQL Cluster pointing to a standalone SQL thru security setting "be made using current login's security context". It's double hop Kerberos setup. Cluster uses a domain account, so we manually set SPNs for that account with both instance name and protocol as well (set up these SPNs with SQL virtual name only).
Also, constrained delegation has been  set to that stand alone SQL services (MSSQLSvc).
Both SQL cluster and standalone servers are in same domain, cluster service account is domain account and standalone SQL uses default SQL local service account.
Coming to SQL, when I create linked server, sometimes it lets me create without issues and sometime it throws this below warning and even if I create it won't work.
 Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY/ANANOMOUS LOGIN'.Â

Hi
We are planning to upgrade the SQL Server in our production environment from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. This is a 4 Node cluster environment with 3 Databases on 3 Virtual instances. The main requirement is to achieve this with no/minimal downtime.
Could you please suggest or direct me to any documentation for the best practices used to upgrade such an environment?
Thanks
Priyanka

I´ve been reading that SQL Server 2012 Always On is dependent on having a Windows Failover Cluster setup. Is that correct ?

We're upgrading a SQL Server 2000 cluster (Active/Passive) running on Windows 2000 Server to a SQL Server 2005 Cluster running on Windows Server 2003. We can't purchase new hardware and we have no spare hardware. We also need to move from Windows 2000 Server to Windows 2003 Server at the same time. We want to keep downtime to a bare minimum.
What we were thinking was the following steps... Anyone try this?
1. Break the link between the servers.
2. Install a fresh copy of windows 2003 server on one side along with SQL Server 2005. While this step is running, the active node would still be live on Windows 2000 Server and SQL Server 2000 serving our customers.
3. Restore a copy of a backup from the active production side to the node we're upgrading and at that point we would bring the active node down, switching the active node to be the newly upgraded server.
4. As a final step, the old active node would now have the link to it broken, we would install a fresh copy of windows 2003 server on it and sql server 2005. At this point we would bring it back into the cluster and the cluster would be complete again.
Thoughts?

I am using Linked Server in SQL Server 2008R2 connecting to a couple of Linked Servers.
I was able to connect Linked Servers, but I cannot point to a specific database in a Linked Server, also, I cannot rename Linked Server's name.
How to point the linked server to a specific database? How to rename the Linked Server?
The following is the code that I am using right now:
USE [master]
GO
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver
   @server = N'Machine123Instance456',
   @srvproduct=N'SQL Server' ;
GO
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'Machine123Instance456', 'false', NULL, 'username', 'password'Â Â

Is there a way to bypass the syntax checking when adding a stored procedure via a script?
I have a script that has a LINKed server reference (see below) .
INSERT
INTO ACTDMSLINKED.ACTDMS.DBO.COILS ..etc.
ACTDMSLINKED does not exist at the time I need to add the stored procedure that references it.
PLEASE to not tell me to add the LINK and then run the script. This is not an option in this scenerio.
Thanks,
Terry

During the installation of Adding node to a SQL Server failover cluster(On passive node) getting error like.. The MOF compiler could not connect with the WMI server. This is either because of a semantic error such as an incompatibility with the existing WMI repository or an actual error such as the failure of the WMI server to start.We  run the below commands but didn’t get any resolution & got the same above error .
Â
1<sup>st</sup> Method…
1. Open console command (Run->CMD with administrator privileges).Â
2. net stop winmgmtÂ
3. Rename folder %windir%System32WbemRepository to other one, for backup purposes (for example _Repository).Â
4. net start winmgmt
2<sup>nd</sup>Â Method..
1. Disable and stop the WMI service.
a) Command : - sc config winmgmt start= disabled
b. Command : - Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â net stop winmgmt

I am in the process of moving databases from a SQL 2005 Standard version to a 2-node 2014 cluster.All of my 2005 databases back up successfully.They all restore without issue except for one database that has a full text catalog. I get this message
Msg 7610, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Access is denied to "fileStoragedataMSSQLSERVERFullTextCatalog", or the path is invalid.
Msg 3156, Level 16, State 50, Line 2
File 'sysft_FTCatalog' cannot be restored to 'fileStoragedataMSSQLSERVERFullTextCatalog'. Use WITH MOVE to identify a valid location for the file.
Msg 3119, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Problems were identified while planning for the RESTORE statement. Previous messages provide details.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 2

I went as far as giving the folder full access to everyone temporarily and received the same error.

I ran the Advanced cluster preparation for a new sql instance on an existing cluster.
Slq Server 2012.
After is completed, it was successful, I realized I specified the wrong Instance Root directory.
Is it possible to remove what the preparation installed? Or is it possible to change the root directory?

Can I build a cluster by adding the cluster service, then the SQL instances, then add the other nodes and their passive SQL instances?I would lean to building the cluster first, the add the SQL instances.

I have following script which i am planning to run to drop all non-clustered primary keys on a database and then created as clustered. I am using someone else's script so don't know how to modify this. Some of primary key columns are used in references in other tables.
is there anyway i can drop the existing primary keys and using their original script then create again as clustered including restoring all foreign and reference keys and unique or no unique.
DECLARE @table NVARCHAR(512), @tablename NVARCHAR(512),
@sql NVARCHAR(MAX), @sql2 NVARCHAR(MAX), @sql3 NVARCHAR(MAX),
@column NVARCHAR(MAX);
DECLARE @indexname NVARCHAR(512);
SELECT name As 'Table'

I am setting up SQL 2014 always on. I was able to set up the replicas between 2 servers in the same subnet.Their IP addresses are say like this:
100.20.200.200
100.20.200.201
When I am trying to introduce another node into the cluster which has IP address like 100.10.101.102, I am getting an error that the server isn't reachable.

Hi.
I have installed an SQL 2005 Failover Cluster on a Two Node Active Passive Windows 2003 Cluster.If i am trying to failover from the Active node to the passive Node,The Sql Server,Sql Server Agent and SQL Analysis resources fail,However if i reset the passowrd in the services tab of the above three services on the pasive node,the resources come online.
Below is the brief of my setup
1.I have two Active directory domain controllers running Windows 2003 R2 Standard edition with SP2.
2.i have installed a Windows 2003 Two Node Active Passive Cluster as NODE1 and NODE2.
3.The Domain account used to install WIndows 2003 A/P Cluster is Clusteradmin.This account is the member of Administartors on the Domain as well as the Local Admin on NODE1 and NODE2.
4.SQL 2005 with SP2 is installed on both the Nodes as SQL 2005 Failover Cluster.The account used to install SQL 2005 is sqadmin.This account is the member of Administartors on the domain and the member of Local Admins on NODE1 and NODE2.
5.SLQ 2005 has four domain groups for 4 SQL Services.The Services are SQL Server,SQL Server Agent,SLQ Anaylisis Server and Full text Search.
6.Each of these servcie has a seperate service account created for them.All these service accounts areb the members of domain admin and the member of Local Admin on NODE1 and NODE2.
7.Each of these servcies is running under these servcie accounts in the Servcies tab in NODE1 and NODE2.
8.If i fail the resources from NODE1 to NODE2 ,The SQL Server,SQL Server Agent and SQL Anaylisis resources are failing.on going to the service tab of NODE 2 I reset the password for these services,the services come online.
10.The Cluster resources and MSDTC Resources are Failing over successfully.They are coming online successfully.
11,I have a problem with the SQL Server Resources,even if i failback to NODE1 from NODE2,the same resources are failing again.
Plz Advice.
Regards
Khalid

Hi all:-
I am trying to set up a new database on the active passive cluster server. I want to have the data file (.mdf) on D: and the transaction log (.ldf) on T: but when I try to craete the database it tells me that the transaction log cannot be created on T: but if I try to craete the ldf and mdf on D: it works okay. Does anyone have an idea why this would be happening? The D and T drives are shared on the cluster.

Does anybody have any ideas?
Hope someone can help me on this one. We are up against the wall with no solution insight. Here’s the chronological flow.
Built up two Compaq Proliant 3000’s with Fiber Channel Array F100 (yes it is on the HCL for Clusters)Both 3000's are dual PII 450's with 512 MB RAM
Installed NT Server 4.0 EE
Installed SP3
Installed IE 4.01 SP1
Installed MSCS
Installed SQL 6.5 EE (after using bug fix).
Every thing works just fine at this point. Nothing else is installed and NO Compaq ‘junk’ or utilities installed. Just used the Smart Start CD as directed by Compaq
Go to install SQL Cluster using the SQL Cluster wizard and it fails every time while the dialog box says it is attempting to get SQL Services going. It does this whether we do it before or after installing SQL SP5A
Microsoft has escalated it internally because I am convinced they do not have a clue as to what is going on. We have sent them screen captures and the log of what is going on. Looks like it is failing trying to connect to or start the SQL Service at about the time it should be going over to the other node to update/copy files to the registry. The other node only has the client utilities on it for SQL as we are using the Active/Passive model.
So here I sit with $14,000 (internal cost) of hardware and it is not working. Needless to say it is very embarrassing and gives me a dirty name. I and the Cluster Support Team have been over this hardware and software several times and we can find nothing that is not installed as directed or misconfigured.
Any help, ideas, suggestions, etc are greatly appreciated.
As a side note the same install went just fine on an Alpha box. Here I have no choice but to use the Compaq/Intel chips

I have the following SQL FCI configuration:
NODE1 -256GB
INST1 - 64GB min/64GB max
INST2 - 64GB min/64GB max
NODE2 - 256GB
INST3- 64GB min/64GB max
INST4- 64GB min/64GB max
With this configuration and if all instances are running on the same node there will be enough memory for them to run. Knowing that normally i ll have only 2 instances in each node wouldnt it be better the following config?
NODE1 -256GB
INST1 - 64GB min/128GB max
INST2 - 64GB min/128GB max
NODE2 - 256GB
INST3- 64GB min/128GB max
INST4- 64GB min/128GB max
With this configuration and in case all the instances (due to a failure) start running on only 1 node, SQL will adjust all instances to just use Min memory specified?
