I have two databases db_A_primary and db_B_primary, both databases are on one Primary server.
db_B_primary has a View into db_A_primary.
Scenario: db_A_primary goes down and failsover to db_A_mirror on the Mirror server.
In this scenario when the View in db_B_primary is accessed will it automatically be redirected to look at the db_A_mirror database on the Mirror server?

Is there a utility that will allow me to see what users on my network areconnected/active on SQL server?Ryan

I have a raid 5 NT server 4.0 with SQL 6.5 running.
I perform backups on tranlogs every hour and db`s every night.
I also have another 16G Nt server not raid 5.
Can someone tell me if it is possible to mirror a device or a database
into the regular 16G NT server from raid 5 server?
HOW???
HOw about database mirroring??
And also whats the best solution when it comes to mirrorring in NT server?
I need to start mirroring the databases without witness server.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been looking into mirroring a large amount of small databases approx 150 databases.
As I understand this won't be feasible because of the way mirroring threading works, http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=441900&SiteID=1
As I understand it for every database being mirrored sql will ping the mirror second, causing a network bottleneck?.
Also that the amount of threads generated for each mirrored database will cause also cause a bottleneck?
At the moment our database servers are under very little pressure and as an estimate use about 10% of the resources allocated to them such as CPU utilization, memory, disk IO and network. Our server hardware is Dual Quad core Xeons with 4 - 8 gig of memory and variety of 10k SCSCI raid configurations from raid 5 or 1,0 and sql 2005 32bit.
Ive done some calculations on the log file generation rate compared to network bandwidth there is more than enough network bandwidth.
Has anybody had any luck in mirroring many small databases?
My concerns is how much traffic is caused by the pinging of the mirror for each database?,
How many threads will the mirroring cause and what is the max amount of threads sql can handle?
How much memory will be consumed by each one of these mirroring threads?
Can someone explain what does this mean? This is from http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2005/dbmirror.mspx
<quote>However, all these techniques for coordinating client redirection with a database mirroring have an important limitation. Database mirroring occurs only at the database level, not the server level. Be careful if your application relies on querying several databases on a server, or uses multi-part object names to query across several databases. When several databases reside on one server, and they are mirrored to a standby server, it is possible that one of several databases might fail over to the standby but the others remain on the original server. In that case, you might need one connection per database that you are querying, so that you do not attempt cross-database queries on a standby server where only one database is a principal and the remaining are mirrors.</quote>
Also I read somewhere that if one mirrored DB fails, all other mirrored DB should also be transferred to the mirror.
For example: Let's say Srv1 (principle) and Srv2 (mirror) and Srv3(witness) are SQL servers with only default instances. The SQL instance has 4 DBs (DB1, DB2, DB3, DB4) and all of them are mirrored to Srv2.
An ASP.NET application has four seperate connection strings like:
objConn1 --> Data Source=Srv1;Failover Partner=Srv2;Initial Catalog=DB1;Integrated Security=True;
objConn1.connect();
objConn2 --> Data Source=Srv1;Failover Partner=Srv2;Initial Catalog=DB2;Integrated Security=True;
objConn2.connect();
objConn3 --> Data Source=Srv1;Failover Partner=Srv2;Initial Catalog=DB3;Integrated Security=True;
objConn3.connect();
objConn4 --> Data Source=Srv1;Failover Partner=Srv2;Initial Catalog=DB4;Integrated Security=True;
objConn4.connect();
If DB2 failsover to Srv2 (mirror), why should all other DBs be failedover?
Thanks
I have to mirror 3 DBs on my sql server instance . I have restored there full backups and log backups on mirror.I have also created endpoints on principal and mirror using default ports 5022 and 5023.
know if i can use the same endpoint for the databases on principal instance ?
With the Synonym, I was encouraged to separate my db to several smaller dbs, like base,dynamic,static and security. Now I am trying to use mirroring, I see it may cause problem, I think I need mirror all them to another server. My question is when the server is down, will all db switch to mirror server in the same time? And one can manually set which db is the principal db, but in my case, it will not work if principal server of all four dbs are not the same.
Any thought?
thanks
I am trying to enable database mirroring for 100 database.
It goes error free till 59 databases (some times 60 databases) with the
status (principal, synchronized) on principal. on the 60th or 61st database
it gave the status (principal, disconnected). Also mirror starts acting
abnormal. connection to mirror starts to give connection timeout and it is
not enabling database mirroring on any more databases. I have SQL SERVER
2005 Enterprise with SP1 on the servers. witness is not included yet.
this are my test servers... i have more than 500 databases on my production
servers.
principal and mirror both are using port 5022 for ENDPOINT communication.

All of the databases are critical and all must be included in the Database Mirroring.
so, after that I tried to implement database mirroring again......
System has 3 GB of RAM, SQL SERVER (Mirror) using 85 MB of RAM but still
giving this error while trying to enable database mirroring for 37th

"There is insufficient system Memory to run this query"
WHY?
I have a 2 node cluster having 4 cores each wherein having 3 instances of SQL 2008 R2 enterprise comprising of 60 databases, 20 on each instance. I need to setup mirroring for each of the databases to a secondary server having 4 cores and 3 instances.
What i understand is that in this case the mirror server will be providing max of 512 worker threads and the 60 mirror databases would consume 240 threads.
What all needs to be checked for looking into the feasibility of going ahead with a async mirror setup as mentioned above.

View 0 Replies View RelatedHello,
How can I write a view that gets data from different databases in the same Database server?
How can I include tables and views from database A when building a view in database B, if possible?
Same for stored procedures.
We have created a view that selects from tables in two databases. it looks like something like this:
CREATE VIEW myview AS
SELECT col FROM db1.mytab
UNION SELECT col FROM db2.mytab;
Both tables have col as primary key.
When we executes SELECT col FROM myview WHERE col='SOMEVALUE' we receives the correct result but SQL server does not use any indexes. It performs a index scan on both tables. Wh and what can we do about it? The tables contains millions of rows so the performance is terrible.
The following works fine:
SELECT col FROM db1.mytab WHERE col ='SOMEVALUE'
UNION SELECT col FROM db2.mytab WHERE col ='SOMEVALUE';
Qe are running SQL Server 2000 and TRANSACT SQL

I have database with a large table (30 Billion rows) because it is so big I separated the data in quarterly tables and created a partitioned view (with hints for the date column) about 1 billions a quarter. (all in separated filegroups). The tables themselfes are partitioned by date again, so you slice out one day
However the full-backup of grows and grows and the mainpart of it is "old" but needed data.
So I was thinking to put the older data in a separate database (with separated backup) and then point to the table in my view.
While this is technical possible (leaving out the WITH SCHEMABINDING) I wonder what negative consequences it will have.
I already had to lose "with schemabing".
I have to use separate partioning functions - for each database its own - (partition schemas where already separated due to separated filegroups)
What about query optimization, does the optimizer care that there are two databases?
I attempted to create a view in SQL Server 2000 that Unions twoqueries. The first part of the query gets data from the local server,the second part gets info from a linked server. (The query works finein Query Analyzer.)I received this error when I tried to save the query:ODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] The operation couldnot be performed because the OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' was unable tobegin a distributed transaction.[Microsft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server][OLE/DB providerreturned message: New transaction cannot enlist in the specifiedtransaction coordinator.]After a little reading I discovered the "Database limitation":"A view can be created on a table only in the database the viewcreator is accessing".That's my problem... is there a simple solution or alternative tocreating a view?Thanks,Matt
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem with permissions using Windows groups. I have a database (database1) that has permissions granted via Windows groups. Two groups (group1 and group2) are members of the db_datareader role in database1, and this work fine. Do to the number of tables that get created during our work, using db_datareader is the easiest way to keep up with permissions without creating a maintenance problem. Now I have a table that I want to add to this database, but I only want group2 to have select permission on this one table which is a problem because group1 has the db_datareader role. So I thought I could create a view in this database to the restricted table that I put in database2. Then in database2 I only added group2 as a user with the permission to select from this table. Unfortunately the group membership does not seem to get interpretted correctly in database2 and no one can successfult select from the view in database1.
In other words, user1 who belongs to group1 connects to database1 and cannot select from the restricted view -- this is what I would expect. However, when user2 who belongs to group2 connects to database1 they also cannot select from the restricted view -- not the behvior I would expect. Now, if I make user2 a user in database2 with select on the restricted table then user2 can connect to database1 and successfuly get data from the restricted view. So it looks like the fact that user2 belongs to group2 is never passed to database2 via the select from the view on database1. Is this indeed the way that Windows group security is working or is meant to work in SQL Server?
I realize I could solve this simplified version of the problem by creating my own role in database1 for group1 etc., but I am trying to solve a bigger problem in our environment that has hundreds of databases across numerous servers.
Thanks

I have several distributed databases with identical schemas that I have added to my SQL server as a set of linked servers. For the sake of simplicity consider a schema with single table with one column called Info. I would like to present a view with columns DatabaseName and Info, that presents all the rows from all the databases in a single view.
How can this be achieved this using a SQL Server View?
If not is not possible using Views, what approach you recommend?
We have two databases with same schema and tables (same table names, basically main DB and a copy of the main DB). following is example of table names from 2 DBs.
CREATE TABLE #SourceDatabase (SourceColumn1 VARCHAR(50))
INSERT INTO #SourceDatabase VALUES('TABLE1') , ('TABLE2'),('TABLE3') , ('TABLE4'),('TABLE5') , ('TABLE6')
SELECT * FROM #SourceDatabase
DROP TABLE #SourceDatabase
CREATE TABLE #ArchiveDatabase (SourceColumn2 VARCHAR(50))
INSERT INTO #ArchiveDatabase VALUES('TABLE1') , ('TABLE2'),('TABLE3') , ('TABLE4'),('TABLE5') , ('TABLE6')
SELECT * FROM #ArchiveDatabase
DROP TABLE #ArchiveDatabase
We need a T_SQL statement that can create one view for each table from both the databases(assuming both databases have same number of tables and same table names). so that we can run the T_SQL on a thrid database and the third DB has all the views (one view for each table from the 2 DBs). and the name of the view should be same as the tables name. and all 3 DBs are on the same server.
the 2 temp tables are just examples, DBs have around 1700 tables each. so we ned something like following for each table.
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE1 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE1] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE1]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE2 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE2] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE2]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE3 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE3] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE3]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE4 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE4] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE4]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE5 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE5] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE5]
CREATE VIEW DBO.TABLE6 AS SELECT * FROM [SourceDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE6] UNION ALL SELECT * FROM [ArchiveDatabase].[dbo].[TABLE6]
HiI have two databases: Customers and Operations. In Customers database I havemade a view based on a few tables from both Customers and Operations (leftjoin - customers without any operations). In the same database (Customers) Ihave created a stored procedure based on the view. Finally I'd like to giveto some users permission only to exec the stored procedure.Have I to add the users to Customers? If yes, please describe me how tolimit the users privileges only to execution the stored procedure (no rightsto open tables or view from Customers).Regards,GrzegorzPs.

Server A = primary SQL DBs (mirroring origination)
Server B = failover SQL DBs (mirroring destination)
For database mirroring a witness is required.
Can the witness live in another instance of SQL on server B?
Using SQL Server 2008, we would like propose mirroring between two servers of a critical database. Since we initiate, may require to clarify on its purpose and also required changes from application end.Any changes required from OS Level? (I believe both servers IP or Host name should be added in host entries. Mirroring ports should be allowed/open including Principal and mirror server IP Addresses): Windows Team.Any changes required from Application? (Instance name, authentication: user name and its password should be added in web config files): Application Team.Any changes required from Network Team?Also for mirroring both the principal and mirror servers should be with same version, does it only mean SQL Server 2008 versions are enough or does it also mean to say build numbers 10.00.4000 should also be same.URL....

We are running mixed security. Most of the connections are through ODBC. We have applied SP5a to SQL.

When I try to connect to my SQL server I get the following error.

If you ran space in syslogs dump the transaction log. Otherwise use ALTER DATABASE or sp_extendsegment to increase the size of the segment.
Ok, I am not up on SQL so I'm not sure how to dump my tempdb database. I have a coworker that has only done this sort of thing in the Enterprise Manager and we can't get there. So how do I do this and make sure that I don't blow away any data? Also if I do dump my tempdb will this cure my problems and how do I avoid having this happen again?

I spent the whole week trying to find a solution with a problem of authorization/access on a new website (aspnet2 + slqserver 2005)
The site was running well in the test environnement but once deployed the production site behavior was quite erractic. some clients run ok, others not and that changes for the same client with each session.
it appeared that the problem came from the access to stored procedures. sometime, theirs accesses were authorized sometime denied.
finally, tests showed that the client's userid was either aspnet or iusr_
by putting the same permissions on these 2 accounts, the problem is solved and all the clients are running fine.
now the question : for which reason the client connect randomly to one or the other of these 2 id ? is this normal ?
