Master Server MSX/TSX Setup...
Oct 31, 2005
So, I'm looking into using an MSX/TSX setup to help manage and monitor jobs, etc.
I took two test boxes and set one up as a Master and one as a Target and got it working...was able to push a job out and it ran and reported back, etc.
So, that's all great, but this was one small limited test. I'm curious to know if there are any gotchas that some of you have experienced that you would be willing to share with me to help prevent me from experiencing the same issues, etc.
I have about 40 instances that I'm considering using this MSX/TSX setup with, the remaining 15 instances would be monitored by something like Quest. Can a single MSX handle jobs on 40 instances? I already have maintenance plans and jobs set up on all the remote servers. Is there a way to transfer their ownership up to the MSX so they can be monitored from there? So far I haven't seen a way to do that.
*ponders*
Actually, one thing I just realized is that I could set up a job that looked for failed jobs. If I pushed that job out to all the TSX servers that could be used to alert me that something failed on a TSX box. That would actually be a great way to do it the more I think about it...Can anyone think of a reason why that is a bad idea?
Thanks!

I downloaded the AdventureWorks2012 OLTP script. When I ran it it gave me some errors. I also noticed that it tried to install into the bult-in master database, it created a lot of tables and objects. Some questions :
1) How can I remove everything that the script installed into master database?
2) Do I need to create 1st an empty database and then run the script there?
3) I am running the script from a custom path (C:DownloadsMicrosoft SQL Server 2012AdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script.zipAdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script) not sure if this is causing some of the errors as the script, in the beggining has a path to other folders :
:setvar SqlSamplesDatabasePath "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL11.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLDATA"
-- NOTE: Change this path if you copied the script source to another path
:setvar SqlSamplesSourceDataPath "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL11.MSSQLSERVERToolsSamplesAdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script"
4) Final question, I also downloaded the AdventureWorks 2012 simple database (AdventureWorks2012_Data.mdf). Is this file the same database as the one created by the OLTP script?

I am running a number of SQL instances on my PC. Within the network, I have think server with various System Center components. For compatibility reasons, some features of System Center 2012 R2 had to be delegated to different SQL databases. My question is, because there is now more than one IP address on my system, and each instance of SQL is assigned to its own IP, is there a way to setup DNS and SQL so the namespace points to the desired IP address? For Instance:
MSSQL2008 instance is set to run on = 11.12.13.1
MSSQL2012 is set to run on = 11.12.13.2
IN DNS:
A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.1
A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.2
If I want to use MSSQL2008 by specifying Mike-PC as the DNS name, how would I do that with 100% accuracy? If there is another way to get the job done, I am more than willing to approach this differently.

I have XP Pro SP2 with MDAC 2.8.1022. It had a problem so I tried to reinstall MDAC and got a Fatal Setup Error. This setup does not support installing on this operating system. I downloaded MDAC 2.8 1177 and get the same error.
I thought of uninstalling/reinstalling SP2, but this is a 2 month old Dell Latitude 610 with factory installed XP. There is no Windows Service Pack 2 option listed in the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
There's some other strange things, so I wonder if they are related.
1) I have Paul set up as an administrator account. Some folders like MSSQL show that account with no permissions. I grant all the permissions to Paul for that folder. I come back later and the permissions are gone.
2) I deleted 20 files in Explorer, but 7 of them did not go away. I deleted those 7 again and they instatnly reappeared. I deleted those 7 again and then they finally went away.
3) I get a slow reaction time for things like Windows Explorer and opening and closing programs. This is suprising since it has 2 gig of RAM and 2.3 Gig processor. Could it be a memory handling problem that's causing OS problems. Probably, the memory didn't handle the OS installation well and the whole system is compromised now.

We're doing upgrades from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014. This is blocked due to RS is installed but not configured. Our desired action is to uninstall RS and proceed with the upgrade. But when setuparp.exe is raised, it does not list all the features on the 'Select Features' page. In fact, it only lists the last 2 shared features (SQ Client Connectivity SDK and Microsoft Sync Framework). However, all items appear to be listed on the 'Select Instance' page including RS. I've seen this issue on 2 of our SQL 2008 R2 Servers already.

I got a File with sales orders and their details.
Step 1. First I am filtering the Sales Order information and inserting it in my Sales Orders table.
Step 2.Then I am filtering the details from the sales Order and inserting them in the respective table.
My Problem is that the Sales Order File does not contain the Sales Order key (ID), this is generated by the SQL Server. How can get it in order to use it in the second step? I need it because it is a foreign key in the details table.
Any Idea?

I'm trying to install SQL Server Management studio 2012 on my Windows 7 (x64) standalone laptop. When I click "New SQL stand-alone installation..." it runs a Setup Support Rules check and always fails "Setup Account Privileges". I've looked into the error and I keep getting that I need to change security rules but I don't have that option in window 7. How do I get around this without having to resort to a computer running Windows Server?
I have Visual Studio 2013 premium installed along with Localdb v11. I just want to connect and manage my database engine through SSMS when developing any application.

I'm looking for a way to list the target servers associated with a master server. The reason is that we're moving to another master server, and I'd prefer not to move the targets manually.
I've got most of the T-SQL already (sp_msx_enlist, sp_add_jobserver), but I'd like a scripted solution instead of a wizard.

I need to investigate about what happened to our production server at the last weekend.i restored it to another server which is development. I restored it under a name "old_master_2015_07_10".
But if I run a query
SELECT *
FROM [old_master_2015_07_10].[sys].[servers]
it actually selects from master.sys.servers, not from my old_master... In order to prove it, I created a linked server in this, development server, and if I run SELECT * FROM [old_master_2015_07_10].[sys].[servers], it selects it. And in database selection drop-down box I also selected old_ master_ 2015_07_10. What I think it apparently recognizes familiar names like sys.servers and redirects the query to the master.
What I can do to select really from old_master_2015_07_10 database? I already thought about renaming sys.servers to something different, but did not do it not to break something in master in case if SQL Server will run it in master as well.

I have never done this in a DR scenario before. What I used to do in SQL Server 2000 was apply the logins to a new installation of SQL 2000 then recover the application databases. I'm using 2005 now and I'm in a different mode where I would like to be able to recover the system (master, model, msdb) to a different server with the same SQL Server 2005 build ---- 9.0.3054. I'm following the procedures from Microsoft where they state to place the instance in single user mode first then invoke SQLCMD then perform the restore. Sounds simple enough.
C:> SQLCMD
> RESTORE DATABASE MASTER from DISK = 'Z:MINIDRmaster_backup_200804200315.bak'
The console is coming back with a message that the backup set holds a backup other than the existing master database. So I suppose that this cannot be done and is only intended for recovery on the same instance.
Any input/experience is appreciated.
Thanks.

Silly question, but why can you not setup a multi-server job and have that same server as a target? What's the rational behind this?

Has anyone seen this issue before?
Msg 22026, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
The enlist operation failed (reason: SQLServerAgent Error: The target server cannot establish an encrypted connection to the master server 'MSXSERVERINSTANCE'. Make sure that the MsxEncryptChannelOptions registry subkey is set correctly on the target server.)
I did check the registry key (on all servers) and all of them have MsxEncryptChannelOptions set to the default of 2 (used this link as a guide - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365379.aspx).
I have setup the server MYMSXSERVERINSTANCE as the master and currently have 5 targets. This error occurs when I attempt to enlist the 6th server as a target.
Server information:
MSXSERVERINSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Developer Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER1INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Developer Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER2INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Developer Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER3INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Developer Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER4INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Enterprise Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER5INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Enterprise Edition; Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVER6INSTANCE - Product Version=9.00.3042.00; Product Level=SP2; Edition=Enterprise Edition (64-bit); Engine Edition=3
TSXSERVERS1-3 are 'nonproduction' level machines used for development and testing of our software. TSXSERVER4-5 are production servers (TSXSERVER5 is actually on an active/passive cluster and is the virtual name). TSXSERVER6 is a server that houses a day old copy of our production data for reporting purposes.
Now, TSXSERVER6 is the odd one here. It's a new server where we are pushing replicated data to for reporting purposes. Aside from the version of SQL Server being for 32-bit and 64-bit the only other difference is the OS:
MSXSERVER - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003, Enterprise Edition
TSXSERVER1-3 - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003, Standard Edition
TSXSERVER4-5 - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003, Enterprise Edition
TSXSERVER6 - Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition
Has anyone ran into a situation like this? The obvious thing that comes to mind is that I might not be able to have a 64-bit version of SQL Server be a target to a 32-bit version of SQL Server. But I have been unable to locate any documentation stating this either way. Any suggestions on what to look at next... or better yet if you know the answer already let me know! :)

I have a full backup from ServerA. I then put ServerB in single user mode and try to restore the backup from ServerA. (both are identical servers but have different names)
[*- From command prompt using sqlcmd -*]
USE master
GO
RESTORE DATABASE master
FROM DISK = 'D:BACKUPSserverA.bak'
GO
Msg 3154, Level 16, State 4, Server MSSQL1, Line 1
The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'master' database.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Server MSSQL1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
Any ideas on forcing the restore through T-SQL? The restore works fine from a master backup from itself (ServerB).

I've installed SQL Server 2000 and applied SP3a. I see SP4 is available and fixes a lot of things. The only bit I am unsure about is section '5.3.2 Changes to Master/Target Server Configurations'
http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/b/d/1bdf5b78-584e-4de0-b36f-c44e06b0d2a3/ReadmeSql2k32sp4.htm#_5464_sql_server_agent_enhancements_705
"Before you apply SP4, you must complete several steps to upgrade your SQL Server 2000 master/target server configuration. The changes that are introduced with SP4 are not compatible with SQL Server 7.0 target servers, or with any servers not running SP3 or later. This is a change from the original SQL Server 2000 functionality. "
As I'm just starting out I don't even know what 'Master/Target Server' is. I'm only installing to my PC which is XP Pro SP2. Can I ignore this step and apply the patch or do I need to do as it states?
Thanks

Hi All,
Here's my situation: I need to move several application db's to a new server. The current server is SQL 7.0 SP2, the new server will be SQL 7.0 SP3.
In order to avoid having the problems of mismatched logins and db user definitions, I'd like to restore the current master over the master that's created at install on the new server.
I was doing some testing of this by trying to restore the 7.0 SP2 master onto a SQL 7.0 DE edition and had some problems. (Obviously, this is not the exact scenario that I need to take place -- I want to restore standard edition to standard edition.)
Is restoring the master db from different service packs under 7.0 going to pose a problem? Is restoring the master db the best way to get around the logins issue when moving db's?
Thanks in advance for all replies.

I have a server attached to a SAN, all user db's are on the SAN, master, tempdb, and msdb are on the local machine. We will be replacing the machine (not the SAN) to a newer sql server. Our plan was to create the new server with same name, deattach current user db's,backup master and msdb, then connect new server with same name an IP to SAN. I then wanted to restore the master and msdb db's to the new machine, and attach the user db's. We are running log shipping to a stand-by server in this configuration. I was thinking I could let last tran log backup and copy occur, and then let the last restore happen on the standby. I would then shut down the agent. Should I not be able to restore the MSDB and master to the new server (as long as all file folder locations are the same) and be ready to go? Or are there issues when restoring the Master and MSDB to a new server from a different server.

What considerations do I need to take into account if trying to enlist a server into a master server when (a) both instances are on different physical servers and the SQL Server and SQL Server Agent services run under different domain accounts?
The reason I ask is when attempting to create a master server through the SSMS wizard, I receive these errors:

Now, the first two errors are what are puzzling me. I'm certain I can address the third and last error by making the accounts the SQL Server Agent services run as the necessary SQL permissions on each instance.
I've tried making NT AuthoritySYSTEM accounts on both servers, no luck. Any suggestions?

Hello,
I'm new to SQL and need help with a query. Not sure if this is the right place.
I have 2 tables, one MASTER and one DETAIL.
The MASTER table has a masterID, name and the DETAIL table has a detailID, masterID, and value columns.
I want to return a populated MASTER table with entries based on the DETAIL.value.
SELECT MASTER.*
FROM MASTER
WHERE DETAIL.value > 3
This is a simplified version of my problem. I can't figure out how to set the relationship between MASTER.masterID and DETAIL.masterID. If I do an INNER JOIN, the number of results are based on the number of DETAIL entries. I only want one entry per MASTER entry.
Hope this makes sense.
How can I do this?

As part of a project, I'm not allowed to use foreign keys, well can't. But I have a problem with this master detail relationship (and a very simple one too).
Tables to begin with:
Invoice:
invoiceid : bigint indentity autoincrement primarykey
Detail:
invoiceid: bigint - detailnumber:bigint - desc : char20
Okay - I want to set these two tables up such than when I create a new invoice, and subsequently get the new invoiceid, and I start to add detail records to the detail table, I want the detailnumber to autoincrement when I do an SQL Insert. Right now I have detailnumber as the primary key, so when you view the detail records, it looks like:
(invoiceid, detailnumber, desc) 1,1,text - 1,2,text - 1,3,text - 2,4, text on another invoice - 3,5, text
I want it to work like:
(invoiceid, detailnumber, desc) 1,1,text - 1,2,text - 1,3,text - 2,1, text on another invoice - 3,1, text
where the invoiceid and the detail number make up the primary key.
I seem to recall you could do this is PHP before it had foreign keys & such, and I'm completely drawing a blank on this. BTW - I'm using enterprise manager to set this up, but I can use QA with a sample script to acheive the same.
I realize this may be (and probably is) off-topic here, but I can't figure out where to ask.
Thanks in advance.

Wierd issue of a missing master database - wierd because I would have thought this was a newbie topic but I've found nothing for it. I googled and had a 'decent' look through this forum and only found a bunch of topics on 'how to restore master database'.
I wouldn't have thought I need to restore the master database because my SSMS works fine and I can query the master database. I can also see it in the drop down list of available databases in the Query Designer toolbar. The problem is just that I can't see it in the list of databases. I can see all the other databases I've created, and I can see the master database in the DATA folder. But not in the SSMS.
