Mirroring Dedicated Traffic
Oct 27, 2006
We are using the following configuration:
2 stand alone Windows 2003 servers 64 bit.
Each have two Gig Network cards configured with different IP addresses.
Each running multiple instances of SQL Server 64.
I am trying to set up a mirror where mirroring traffic between servers will be dedicated to a secondary IP address on the second NIC.
I am also trying to avoid Windows authentication.
Interesting enough: Security Configuration screen suggesting you to use fully qualified TCP addresses and, at the same time, does not give you such an option...
Would someone please point me in the right direction?
Thank you.

Would anyone have a suggestion on how to setup a partner to partner NIC configuration for heartbeats/mirroring traffic? I've been told this is the recommended setup but have not found much on how to do it. We currently have a teamed NIC config for redundancy, but would like to have a separate set of NICs on each partner so that mirroring traffic is not interrupted by any regular network traffic.
We also have a witness running in full safety mode. Does this mean partnerA and partner B both need NICs with a crossover cable between them AND is it recommended for the witness to also have extra NICs to both partnerA and partnerB (w/ crossover cables)?
Any suggestions/help/links on properly configuring this would be appreciated.

We have a database in SQL Server 2008 R2 with mirroring and want that replication is done by dedicated network.We stop the endpoint and when we try to run the following command, syntax error occurred:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '192.168.1.14'.
What is the correct syntax of the command line below?
ALTER ENDPOINT Endpoint_Mirroring AS TCP (LISTENER_IP = '192.168.1.14')

I have a server that i would like to use as a dedicated DB Server. It is running Win Server 2k3 and SQL Server 2005. The typical upstream bandwidth is anywhere from 384Kb/s to 700Kb/s. Is this enough to host multiple SQL Server 2005 DB's?
The DB's will be used for database driven websites.
Please let me know what your thoughts are.
Thanks,

Can anyone point me to MS Best Practices that advise you against installing non-SQL-related applications on a SQL DB server? I feel it to be common sense but I have been asked to justify this with a direct statement from Microsoft. Help?

For single instance installations I try to follow a standard configuration where our log files go to E, data files to F, tempdb to H and backups to G. With a new project we have decided to combine our Test and Dev environments on one server with Test being a default instance of SQL Server and Dev being a named instance. My plan was to stick with the above convention, but I was asked if it would be better for each instance to have dedicated data, log and tempdb drives. The problem is we would not have a dedicated controller for each drive. We would have one controller for the default and named instance data drives, one for the log drives and one for tempdb. The other issue is having to modify some of my admin scripts/procedures to work with different drive letters. That's now a real big deal, but does add more work to my plate.
Do you think it's worth having separate drives for a Test/QA server or is it typically sufficeint to use shared?
Thanks, Dave

Hi all:
Give me some feedback.
In my company, we have 10+ sql servers and many sql jobs running on every SQl server.
What about the idea that running all jobs on a dedicated sql servers?
at least 2 advantages
1.easy to managment
2.if agent server down, we restart the server not to impact the downtime of the production server.
any suggestion is welcome.

Hi! need your help.
I have 2 dedicated sql servers xx.xx.x.155 and xx.xx.x.165 (Hosted Environment)
Both SQL Server 2005.
I need to replicate (snapshot daily) data from 155 (Apollo1) to 165 (Apollo2).
and I have many questions as this is the 1st time that I work on this environment.
I created 3 windows accounts and was able to create the publications (Apollo1).
Apollo1ReplSnapAgent
Apollo1ReplDistAgent
Apollo1PublisherUser
However (the distributor) is not visible to Apollo2 so I am unable to subscribe.
Do you have any idea what I need to do to make it visible?
I setup an ftp site to drop the publication (as I was unable to create an UNC Share) and I was hoping to be able to subscribe to it.
Probably it is a matter of permissions...maybe a firewall? should I ask my provider to open a port? do I need to create the same 3 accounts in the Subscriber?
something like Apollo2SubscriberUser?
Please help!
I am lost!

Hello all
I got a Problem when I try to store Data from a Flatfile to a DB.
The following Error appears in the Progress Control:
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_Products_1'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.Products'.".
I have a Flat File Source, and would like to store the needed records in a DB.
In Column 0 in the Flatfile I have multiple Entries with equal Values.
In the DB this Column is set as Primary Key and can only have one Record with the same Value in this Column.
How can I read out (or store) only one Record with the same Value from the Flatfile to store it in the DB?
How can I check if there is a Record from the Flatfile in the DB with the same value in the Primary Key?
How can I change any of the remaining Columns with different Values in the DB to match with the Flatfile?
Thanks in advance for any answer

What sort of traffic would be going on between the machine I am on Enterprise Manager and have a server registered (my local machine) to the actual SQL server? I haven't logged onto the actual SQL machine I only have it listed as a registered server and it's sitting there in the list with it's little green "started" icon.
I'm asking because i'm getting accused for a server going down. I opened my EM around the same time as this SQL server went down and some network people see my machine talking to the SQL server at the same time.
Any ideas? Thanks...

Hi,The application setup is: Access frontend + ODBC (TCP/IP) + MSSQL7Few days ago i was informed that the app generates high networktraffic. Thusi started to look for some savings.I found out (sniffer) that even if the client is idle every 30sek. aTCP packet comes from client to server, then answer goes back. Thepacket seems to be empty (TCP data is 1 byte: 0x00), the answer isempty as well. Seems like kind of watchdog. And it does not seem to berelated to ODBC refresh and any other option possible for setup inAccess client (I set those settings to different that 30sek. values,and 30 sek. traffic still exists).Does anybody know what those packets are for, what module isresponsible for them and how to change interval?My best regards for anybody reading this post,Mirek

All,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me why I could not connect to my server with the DAC when the server CPU utilization for all CPU's was greater than 90%.
BACKGROUND: I have successfully established DAC connections to this server in other periods when the CPU utilization was not pinned so high. I have done so by RDP'ing into the server, opening SSMS and cancelling the request to connect Object Explorer. Finally, I start a new query adding the "Admin" prefix to my server.
As I mentioned, when the server has CPU resource available, this works fine. This indicates that all the groundwork to setting up and using the DAC is laid correctly (i.e. DAC is enabled, I am connected locally, I am logged in with a user role with proper permissions, etc.).
This leads to my question. Why can I not connect to SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition using the DAC when all the (8-way) CPU utilization is at 90% or higher?
I need to make this connection to analyze why the server is so busy.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Tom

I'm planning an SQL 2005 deployment and would like to know if an SQL server should be kept as dedicated as possible. Should apps that access SQL be kept on other servers? What are the do's and don't's along these lines? The plan here is to install everything that accesses SQL on the same server with the database, but this seems like a bad move to me. Am I right?
Thanks!

I am having a problem and this may be more of a network issue bandwidth issue: When I ping from one of my dataservers to another dataserver it takes 10ms. However, if I ping from a fileserver to a dataserver it takes 1ms. Also, if I ping from a Citrix server to another Citrix server or one of the data servers, it also takes 10ms. What are my options?

Can anyone HELP!!
I have a system set up with 2 servers, the master server replicating the data to the backup server. Each server has two network cards, 1 which links directly to the other server.
The problem is the replication is being routed round the network making the direct link useless.
How can this be ammended!!
They are both logging into the same primary controler.
I am open to sugestions

OK, I'm troubleshooting a performance issue on one of our production servers, but I really can't t-shoot and tweak in real-time, so I took a snapshot of "a day in the life of" my production server using the profiler.
I want to run the sql commands I collected on another server I set up identical to production, and play around there.
Does anyone know of a good tool to "replay" those captured commands onot another server?

I have a database of details of users that visit my site. Among other things, it saves the ipaddress and the date/time of the visit. I would like to be able to determine the unique visitors (by ipaddress) that i have on any given day. The problem though is that the data is saved as a date and a time, thus when I try and determine the unique visitors, since they are all a different time, MSSQL thinks they are all unique visitors. Any ideas how I can get around this without acctually modifying the data in the underlying table?

Hello, we are trying to find a way to send all SQL traffic from multiple machines in a DMZ trough only one point. This way the firewall doesn't need to be opened to each and every machine.
This may be a simple question but I have never done it before. Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

Hello all,
I hope someone can help with my current issue as i have now spent the last 8
hours trying to solve it! Here goes...
I am currently moving all my websites from our in house set up to a FASTHOSTS
dedicated server. Our in house set up consists of separate server for web
and data and works well even with my recent foray into .Net sites.
I have just moved the most recent of my .Net sites
(http://www.alfadealerads.co.uk/home.aspx) to the FASTHOSTS server and cannot
get the site to connect to the database (this has also been installed on the
FASTHOSTS server). One of the pages that connects to the DB is
http://www.alfadealerads.co.uk/links.aspx, where i am getting the error..
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot open database requested in login
'MasseratiChauffeurDrive'. Login fails.
Login failed for user 'lateral'.
This DB has been restored from back up from the original DB. I have
recreated the user name on the new SQL server and added it to the new DB
also. I am using a webconfig to connect to the DB, the exact same one
that works on my current live server
(http://www.maseratichauffeurdrive.com/home.aspx) only with the obvious change
to the SQL server name.
The only difference i can see in the 2 setups is that the new one has both the
webserver and the SQL server on the one machine and that machine uses domains.
My current in house setup does not use domains and as mentioned before web and
date are 2 separate servers.
Can anyone help? Or even understand what the hell i have written? lol
Thanks in advance

I looking for a way of measuring how many MB of outbound SQL data is being transferred during the course of a day from an OLTP instance. Data is pulled from this server by a DW in the same domain and adhoc via a linked server. I'm looking at perfmon but nit sure if this is the correct tool and if so which counters to use. I'm looking for the total MB/GB over the period not the MB per sec.

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?

Ive read a few docs and i have some doubts about the implementation i ll make.
I will setup a FCI between ServerA and ServerB. So my databases will be running on server A or on ServerB. they will be replicated using AllwaysON to ServerC.
Because ill use a diferent vlan for AllwaysON replication iam having some doubts on how can i set the endpoints...
For example.
I ll have the following ips configured for AllwaysON replication on Server A, Server B and Server C 10.10.240.1/10.10.240.2/10.10.240.3
Database teste will be running on serverA. the endpoint configured will be 10.10.240.1 but when database fails over to Server B (using FCI) the ip configured there will be 10.10.240.2... so AO replication will stop working.
I tough on associating a virtual ip to the AllwaysON cluster resource but Microsoft doesn't recommend to alter AllwaysON cluster resource.
How can i implement this configuration?

I have been told that I need to setup a crossover cable between a Server that has an application to have a dedicated NIC (using a crossover cable) to a server that has SQL 2005 Sp2 for fast access. How is htis done as far as SQL Properties, and NIC Settings, How do I make sure SQL will transmit using that 2nd NIC?
Thanks,

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....

I need to set up asyncronous data replication across two clustered instances of SQL 2012 across 2 Datacenters. Both the datacenters have a common domain however the vlans are different. There are only 3 small databases on the primary instance.
any issue in setting up mirroring in this case as vlans are different.

We have a Customized share point application with Very minimal data usage and we have used only 5 to 6 lists and libraries only in the share point.
Configuration is
Clients -- fire wall --- Load Balancer ---- WF1 and WF2 --- SQL DB
ROUTING IS VIA FIRE WALL.
SUDDENLY THE SITE GOT DEAD SLOW AND UNABLE TO TRACE THE PROBLEM AS EVERY THING LOOKS FINE.
Checked with the firewall Team and they stated its fine from their end & even we have verified the counters, CPU, Memory & Page life expectancy, buffer counters all looks good and even we do not have huge data in the database. We have only 50 concurrent users are working...

Hi All
By mirroring I mean device mirror, since I do not think that there is a database mirror
We only have disk mirror. I also know that SQLServer 7.0 does not provide Mirror, unmirror or remirror. and for this we have to refer to Windows NT disk mirroring.
I need mirroring in both versions SQL Server 6.5 and 7.0
I want to have mirror on another server. I need this for tonight.
Sincerely.

I hereby let u know the steps that i undertook for performing mirroring
1. Created a database in Principal server named Mirror1 and one table named tblMirror1.( no values inside the table)
2. Repeated the same in Mirror in Witness
3. Selected the Principal server's database -->right click-->tasks-->mirror
4. from the left hand panel selected Options -->recovery model-->full
5. selected Mirroring from left hand panel-->configure secuirty-->entered mirror and witness name--Success
6. When I click on start mirroring I have an error stating
" Alter failed for database mirror1"
"Database mirroring cannot be enabled because Mirror1 database may have bulk logged changes that have not been backed up etc...."
7. followed this one
BACKUP database mirror1 TO DISK='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackupmirror1_FULL.BAK'
got the answer as
Processed 160 pages for database 'mirror1', file 'Mirror1' on file 2.
Processed 1 pages for database 'mirror1', file 'Mirror1_log' on file 2.
BACKUP DATABASE successfully processed 161 pages in 0.318 seconds (4.147 MB/sec).
According to sources
Run a restore of this backup on your mirror.
This can be done through the GUI or using a T-SQL command.
The database restore must use the NO RECOVERY option, so the database stays in a loading state.
Also the database name on the mirror must be the exact same name as the principal
RESTORE TestMirror FROM DISK='C:Backup TestMirror_FULL.BAK' WITH NORECOVERY
Hence did the below
RESTORE database mirror1 FROM DISK='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackupmirror1_FULL.BAK' WITH NORECOVERY
ERROR
Msg 3201, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot open backup device 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackupmirror1_FULL.BAK'. Operating system error 2(The system cannot find the file specified.).
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
HENCE MODIFIED AS
use master
go
RESTORE database mirror1 FROM DISK='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackupmirror1_FULL.BAK' WITH NORECOVERY
Msg 3201, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot open backup device 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackupmirror1_FULL.BAK'. Operating system error 2(The system cannot find the file specified.).

Kindly let me know please where am i going wrong
