We have 2 env. : Testing and Production, both are running Windows 2003 Enterprise Server with SQL Server 2005. The difference is Testing is NOT running Windows cluster but Production do so, what is the best way to transfer a database from testing to production?
We have another systems that both testing and production are running on NON-cluster and we use backup/restore to transfer the database, can it apply in this case.
And I found that there are a tools called DTC, which can transfer all DB objects from one DB to another, is it a best way to transfer between non-cluster and cluster env.?

hi, I have settup up sql mail and did the following:
1. created an E-mail account and configured Out look by creating a pop3 mail profile. tested it by sending and receiving mail, that is ook
2. I Created one domain account for MSsqlserver and Sql Agent service. both services use same account and start automatically in the control panel-services
3. I used the profile that I created in outlook to test the sql mail but got an error:
Error 22030 : A MAPI error ( error number:273) occurred: MapiLogon Ex Failed due to MAPI
Error 273: MAPI Logon Failed
I really do not know what went wrong. I followed the steps from bol and still having a problem. Am I missing something.
I do have a valid email account
I do have a valid domain account
I tested outlook using the email account and it worked. so why sql server does not recognise MAPI.
My next question, How to configure MAPI in Sql server if what I did was wrong.

Hello,
I am facing a huge problem in my sql server database using access as a front end.The main problem is trying to execute queries "views" ,since they reside on sql server now,and using variables or parameters in reports and forms to filter on this query.
Ex.
how can the following be implemented using the same query but in sql server?
Access
------
SELECT MAT_Charts.YYYYMM
FROM MAT_Charts
WHERE ((([Area_Code] & "-" & [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key]))
GROUP BY MAT_Charts.YYYYMM;
It is specifically this statement in which I am interested:
[GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key]))
Thank you very much for your concern.

We are in the process of consolidating all our SQL6.5 and SQL7 databases to a single SQL 7 server - once completed we want to setup a 2 node SQL7/2000 cluster on either NT4 Enterprise or W2k Advanced Server. I would therefore appreciate any advice in choosing between the two platforms based on cost, ease of setup & configuration and ongoing reliabilty & uptime etc - we currently have no NT4 Enterprise Servers so would have to purchase these licenses anyway. Correct me if I am wrong but I also understand that setting up a cluster on NT4 Enterprise is considerabely more complicated and time consuming than on W2K Advanced Server? Any advice would be greatly appreciated..
regards

Can I implement failover clustering between SQL Server 2000 & SQL Server 7.0? Or do they both need to be the same version of SQL Server.

I have a question relating more to documentation and support. I'm trying to find documentation on clustering.
I remember quite some time ago I found a white paper that literally walked you through every step involved in setting up a SQL Server failover cluster. I had also found a white paper that walked you through setting up an Active/Active cluster.
I've been going through Microsoft's site, but all I've found are little bits and pieces.
If anyone can point me in the right direction, or even provide a link, etc. as to where to find some good solid documentation, that would be awesome.
Thanks!!

If i have an activepassive cluster for SQL Server, under what circumstances would it prompt to automatic changeover to the passive cluster ? Failure of the SQL Server, or let's say 1 user database out of 25 becomes suspect?

Is this possible with Express Edition.
We have two servers both running SQL 2005 express. Is there anyway that any changes on one could be replicated on the other?
Thanks

We currently have a cluster configuration that is running as failover with one shared SAN storage solution. Two servers running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise and SQL 2005 Enterprise. We have two nodes right now running in failover and we will be purchasing a third.
Everything is working now, but we would like to move to an N+1 configuration with two active nodes hosting a separate SQL instance each with one failover node. I've seen N+1 mentioned on about a dozen Microsoft websites, but I cant find any documentation on how to setup or configure this clustering method. Has anyone ever set up a configuration like this or seen any documentation on how to do it? Is it possible to run failover with three nodes, two of them being active?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
Is anyone can tell me the difference between log shipping and clustering? I look at it and I think that this is the same thing as they use two different servers.
TIA

Does anyone know the answers to either of these, given that we are talking about an active/passive cluster using MSCS, and we use Groupwise for mail (don't ask!)?
1) How do I configure Agent Mail on the cluster under this setup?
2) How do I set up linked servers from this setup to other (non-clustered) SQL servers - I can set up the cluster virtual server as a linked server from the others OK, but the other way around doesn't work - perhaps not surprisingly, but is there a way around it?
Thanks
Martin

I need some documentation on how to trouble shoot clustering SQL7EE. I have setup the cluster and looks like it is working but I missed somthing. When I test a failover by pulling the Network cable to the main network not the heartbeat network both boxes lock up. I can failover by powering down one box and using the MSCluster Admin. I am using NT40 6a on Dell PowerEdge 2400 and PowerValut 211s

Those of you who are using MS Clustering, what are some advantages vs. a third party product such as "Double-Take" ? If you have used "Doube-Take" I would be extremely interested in your thought of the product.
Is it relatively easy to setup and configure with and environment
that's using all the standard products of BACKOFFICE (SQL Server 7.0 Standard Edition, NT 4.0 Standard Edition etc...)
Any hints, tips, etc... would be also GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I have a question about database clustering. I am loking for the solution for the databse scalability, performance and zero downtime especially for MS SQL Server. As my understanding (correct if I am wrong), only Oracle provides 2 DB Servers (parallel server) or NT clustering for two sql servers. The drawback for these solution is only one server is working and another one is standing by. It is not efficent (which only 50%). Is any way that I could built the DB server farm which every DB server is working, if one failed, throw it away, rest of them still working; if I need more power, just add another db server box.How to solve the data sync problem ? Replication is not good for more than 4 or 5 db servers in the farm. Disk mirror is not good since if the server is down, there is no way to access the disks. DO you have any good idea ?

2 Clustering Questions for you.
1. If I cluster 2 SQL servers in an active/active configuration and want to have a seperate disk array to house the data, do I need to have 2 disk arrays, one per server, or can I have one disk array?
2. When installing an application's database on the first(primary) sql server in an active/active configuration, do I need to install it on the second(secondary) server also? The second server will pick up the processes if the first fails.

For SQL 2000, what are the licensing requirements for a clustered environment? I thought you needed datacenter for the OS, is there a clustered version of sql server, or do you need 2 copies of enterprise edition. Also, if you cluster can you license sql cals for clients, or do you have to do by processor?

We are going to implement a SQL 2000 cluster in an active/passive setup. We are going to use multiple instances. What I am confused about is the naming of the virtual server and instances. In the microsoft documentation it states that all instance/virtual names must be unique across all nodes in the cluster. But the client always specifies the same virtual server name when connecting so how can the names be unique across all nodes??
I would have thought that if there was an instance created called inst1 on node A then during the installation that instance name would be replicated to the failover node B. When installing another instance on Node A do you have to specify a different virtual server and instance name on the failover node B??
Please help!!!!!!!

Should SQL Server 2000 (Enterprise edition) running on a Win2K Advanced Server (Active / Passive) cluster fail-over seamlessly?
We have been assured by our suppliers that current client connections (ODBC using TCP/IP) cannot be maintained during a fail-over. The result is that during a fail-over the client applications crash and users have to restart.
Do we have to modify the client application so that during a fail-over it will attempt to re-establish a connection?
Pointers to any resources for SQL 2000 clustering would be gratefully received (especially any which support the view that fail-over should be seamless).
Many Thanks
Mark

Howdy,
I have had questions from management about whether SQL 2000 clustering on windows 2000 is any good.
We are looking at spending *quite* a bit of money to implement it, but I want a "from the trenches" opinion of what its like , from the people that actually use it & look after it.
e.g.
DOES IT WORK LIKE IT SHOULD????????
Is it reliable?
Is it resource hungry?
Can I trust it to do what its supposed to do?
All repsonses very welcome. No response too small.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
SG.
