Migrating JObs From One MSX Box To Another MSX
May 24, 2002I have big list of jobs on MSX Box - A. Most of those jobs has multiple target server on it. I have to migrate those jobs to new box (new hardware platform). The goal is to migrate everything over to new and decommision old one. If I generate scripts "with Target Server" option, can I run that script on to the new box while both are on-line with two different server name? In other words, can one slave server be a target to two different MSX machine?
This is very urgent for me to get it done, as our old machine is dying and all the jobs are very business critical. Please respond as soon as you can.
Thanks
DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW - Migrating From Stand Alone To Cluster
Dec 27, 2007I am having the following problems and scenarios.
I am moving all of our SSIS packages from a stand alone server to a clustered environment. The old server ran Enterprise Edition, the new server runs Enterprise Edition 64 bit.
One package on the new server is giving me the error messaage DTS_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW when run from a job. The package is stored in MSDB
I went back to the server and ran the following with the following results.
- Connected to SSIS from Management Studio on my desktop and ran the package and got the same error message.
- Did the same as above but was connected to the server through Remote Desktop and it ran fine
- Ran the job, which just runs the package and it ran fine
On the new server it won't run in any scenario.
Any ideas on what to do?
Thanks
Migrating Cluster Instances To Stand Alone Install
Sep 21, 2007Hello all: looking for some general advice on proper approach. looking to move databases off of a clustered instance to a new (non-clustered) server.
Got several issues i'd like some advice on.
1. This is an OLTP instance that's been around for a while & it's pretty well encrusted with apps & processes that attach to it. Therefore it would be a very good thing if we didn't need to change the connection information in several hundred places after the move.
I've tested one approach to this that seems to work: moved the instance to a server which has the same name as the cluster resource associated with the clustered instance and an instance that has the same name as the clustered instance.
For example: cluster install is aiproddbproduction, moved it to a box called aiproddb with a named instance called "production". There's a bunch of tedious network stuff that has to be done to make this work (binding an IP address to the MAC address of the new box and some murky DHCP reservation fiddling), but after the network crew got done cursing me it did finally work.
Does this seem like a reasonable approach?
2. What's the best way to transfer security info to the new instance? I used the transfer Logins DTS widget but had some problems with it not being able to find some groups in AD.
3. what's the best way to transfer DTS packages?
4. is it necessary for the new instance to be at the same patch level as the old instance? the old clustered instance is still at SP3 and i threw the latest SP4 on the new location. good/bad/indifferent?
5. i was planning on taking a full backup & restoring it to the new machine. Is there a better way? Is the wizard for copying databases a good thing?
Those are these issues i'm aware of and have given some thought to. There are probably things about this i haven't considered and would appreciate some word on.
thanks,
Garth

SQL 2012 :: Server Cluster Without Windows Failover Cluster
Feb 18, 2014I´ve been reading that SQL Server 2012 Always On is dependent on having a Windows Failover Cluster setup. Is that correct ?
View 6 Replies View RelatedUpgrading A SQL Server 2000 Cluster To A SQL Server 2005 Cluster
Dec 28, 2007
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?

Problem Occurs When Migrating A SQL Server 2000 Database To A SQL Server 2005 Server
Sep 20, 2006When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem;
Performing operation...
- Add log for package (Success)
- Add task for transferring database objects (Success)
- Create package (Success)
- Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success)
- Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error)
Messages
* The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard)
When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed;
InnerException-->An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.
When connecting to SQL Server 2005,
this failure may be caused by the fact
that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ).
How do I solve this problem?
Migrating Sql Server
Mar 8, 2008I've developed a website and it's hosted by a hosting company. Lately i've registered a new domain with a new virtual hosting account. I've transfered my web files succesfully. But migrating the sql server failed for a couple of times now. My database containes many tables with many products. My hosting provides doesn't give me the opportuniy to restore my backup which i've backuped from my old server. First I tried to use the import and export tool of sql server 2005. This was very easy and it succeeded. But this tool only migrates the tables and the views. All the common stored procedures of asp.net membership are not exported. So I can't login at the moment. I've tried to generate a sql script with all the stored procedures with sql server management studio. But If i want to run this script on my new db, it fails with various errors. I tried to use the aspnet_regsql tool to create all the membership tables and stored procedures. If this succeeds, I can import and export my old db to the new one. But i'm getting a error while trying to use the aspnet_regsql tool. The error number is 290 and the error is: How can I fix this? Er is een fout opgetreden bij het uitvoeren van het SQL-bestand InstallMembership.sql.

Jun 27, 2001Hello!
We are planning migrating to different server.
I know the answers how to migrate all jobs and DTS packages.
But the only question I have is "How to migrate logins and passwords?"
What is the best way to transfer logins?
Can't you just export syslogins table into text file and then import it into the new server?

Migrating Access To SQL Server
May 4, 2004We use MS Access 2000 as our database, but run into lots of proplems. So we decided to research the migration to SQL Server.
I used Access Upsizing utitlity to migrate tables and their data to SQL server very easily, and all the relationships, indecies and other information are converted correctly.
Next is to migrate the queries. I found that to be a pain. Is there any tool out there that can do it for me? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Once that's done, then it's the application itself, but I am not worrying that for now.
Thanks, guys
Migrating To Different Server Part II
Jun 28, 2001I have another question regarding migration process to diffrent SQL Server.
Last time when I did migration I didn't restore system databases (master in particular).
I only restored user databases and of course I've got login errors such
Microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQLState: 42000) Error 15023: User or role '%s' already exists in the current database.
I just used sp_change_users_login to fix those orphans.
I've read articles in MS knowledge base and not quite sure is this a good idea to restore master database prior to restoring all user databases on the new server in order to keep all logins?
I'll try to use recommended article for transfering logins with password instead of restoring master database from backup
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q246/1/33.ASP
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Migrating 6.5 Database To A New Server
Mar 19, 2002I am migrating MS SQL Server 6.5 databases to a new server and wanted to create the data & log devices differently than they are on the old box. My dbcc checks are giving me 2558 errors because my devices weren't built the same size in the same order. I thought if I didn't copy the master, I didn't have to rebuild the database exactly the same. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to rebuild different device sizes and do a successful restore ?

Migrating From Oracle To SQL Server
Feb 6, 2003I have a program that uses ADO to read/write to/from an Oracle back-end database. I'm hoping that given the underlying schema is the same, I can simply change the database driver I'm using and use a SQL Server database instead. Has anyone migrated an application using ADO from Oracle to SQL ? Are there any issues/problems/tips that I should be aware of ?
Thanks in advance..

Having Some Issues Migrating To A New Server
Mar 3, 2004The Setup: I'm moving a SQL Server 7 Database from a SQL Server sp'd somewhere between 3 and 4 (7.00.1028) to a SQL Server without any service packs. The old machine is a Dell PowerEdge 2400 (about 3 years old) and the new machine is a Dell PowerEdge 2650 with dual gigabit nics (and I have them teamed). Both machines run Windows 2000 Server. Mostly default installation on both the OS and SQL Server.
The Problem: When I restore the database to the new server (and resolve the orphaned login issues, etc.) the server hangs unbelievably. Most of my users can't even connect, much less work in their vb apps. I can ping the machine, but can't run the simplest T-SQL against it.
Any ideas?
Help would be greatly appreaciated.
Migrating Users To New Server
Aug 31, 2007Hope somebody can help a novice, so I can impress my boss.
I've got to move a database to a new server and I'm trying to use Gregory A Larsen's sp_help_revlogin script http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/2228611.
It works perfectly for all users, but I want to limit it to one database by using his suggestion shown on that page:
SELECT sid, name, xstatus, password FROM master..sysxlogins
Your_db..sysusers b on a.sid = b.sid
WHERE srvid IS NULL AND name <> 'sa'
However, when I make the changes, so it looks like this:
SELECT sid, name, xstatus, password FROM master..sysxlogins a join
int_test..sysusers b on a.sid = b.sid
WHERE srvid IS NULL AND name <> 'sa'
I get this error when I try to run it:
Server: Msg 209, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_help_revlogin, Line 12
Ambiguous column name 'sid'.
Server: Msg 209, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_help_revlogin, Line 12
Ambiguous column name 'name'.
Server: Msg 209, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_help_revlogin, Line 12
Ambiguous column name 'password'.
Server: Msg 209, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_help_revlogin, Line 12
Ambiguous column name 'name'.
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong.
The database that I want to limit the script/procedure to is called int_test on the same server, and I've checked that the table sysusers does exist, and that it has a column called name.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
