Moving A Database From One Machine To Another And The Lack Of Speed
Jul 23, 2005
Dear All,
We have a procedure that takes12 minutes to run on the first server but
that same procedure now takes 3 hours to run on the second server using the
same data. Does anyone have any suggestions why this is happening and how
to make the procedure faster on the second server
I'm a beginner user. I'd like to move the whole database from a work station to a server, how should I do it in a safe way? First of all, I have a very basic question: How could I save a database in SQL Server? Thanks in advance.
A couple of days ago I installed SQL Server 2005 developer. To pave the way for this I removed SQL Server 2000 and 2005 Express. Since then I've been unable to connect from any of my applications or websites in Visual Studio 2005 to either:- my new 2005 Developer database engine- my colleagues 2005 developer database engine. My colleague can connect to my databases from his visual studio on his machine. I am receiving unspecified OleDb errors.Anyone else had this happen? Anyone know where I should start looking? I've uninstalled all .Net frameworks and re-installed 1.1 and 2.0.Many thanks, Sam
hello everyone. i am new to the group so i aplogize if this question hasbeen answered recently...our sql db machine is too old. we bought a new server with which to replaceit. the trick is, we want to keep the name of the machine and db instancethe same.obviously, we don't plan on having two machine with the same name on thenetwork at the same time. how do we handle this?my first thought is to name the new machine with a new name (mach2),transfer over all the db's, take the old one (mach1) off of the network.rename the machine/instance to the old one (mach1).if i do this, can i drop the original instance on the new machine(mach2)-->register the new (mach1)? will my data be there?Thanks so much for any relplies!!!
SQL Server 2005, when moving a machine to a different domain and changing the hostname the logins such as domainSQLServer2005MSSQLUSER$hostname$MSSQLSERVER are still showing the old hostname and domain name. Does anyone know what impact this has on the system and also if there is anyway to update these accounts without reinstalling SQL Server?
Hey, I have copied a C# express edition project from another machine and have opened the project up and changed the connection string but the project is not updating the database when I try to insert values from textboxes in forms. They seem do be getting into the dataset but not the sql datatabase. I am getting alot of messages saying that it could not find the schema information for the dataset. Could these errors have anything to do with the project? What else do I have to change in the project?
I am moving my SQL 2000 Server from a Small Business Server to a full version of Windows 2000 Server and SQL 2000 Server. I have had no experience doing this but have backed up and restored my production databases for practice in case a of disaster situation. Is there anything special I need to do to move everything, including the system databases to a new server and not loose any of the user logons, etc.?
I have a bunch of SSIS packages that were created on a 32-bit machine (OS as well as SQL Server) where they run without error. I have moved them to a machine with a 64-bit OS as well as 64-bit Enterprise SQL Server, SP2. Initially I encountered errors with the packages that contained Script Transformation tasks where I had to set PreCompile=True. This allowed me to execute the packages individually. When I try and execute them as a batch, I encounter errors on various packages. They don't seem to be consistent - sometimes the error occurs on one package, the next time it will be on a different package. Sometimes they occur pre-execute, sometimes post-execute. Here are a couple of example errors:
[OLE DB Command [1007]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Communication link failure". An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. ". [Insert Destination [1177]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Communication link failure". An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. ".
The source database is on a different server, but the destination database is on the same server as the SSIS packages for testing purposes. Any information would be appreciated...
Hi everybody. I have such problem: After I move my integration services packege to another machine it failed. I tried to recreate connection manager, but result is the same. If I create a simple SQL task in that package and try to execute it - it fails with info:
SSIS package "Main_Package.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC00291EC at Execute SQL Task, Execute SQL Task: Failed to acquire connection "SRV-DSA3.TIA_EXTRACTS_OriginalData.sa". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
Books On Line makes breaking out the report server databases on to a separate machine from the report server itself sound very easy. I have tried it and it is but I can't get the report server to connect to the databases once they are on the other machine.
Everything was done by the book(s). We use SSRS only for intranet use so all inside firewall. The SQL Server 2005 services on both machines (including the RS Windows service) all run as the same domain administrator account, this account was used to log in to RS Config Tool and it was told to use this account under Windows Authentication to connect to the database server. The two machines are in the same domain, even on the same switch. The only difference is the one with report server on is Windows 2000 Server SP4 and the one to which the rs databases are moving is Windows Server 2003 SP1. The account mentioned above has sysadmin rights on both SQL Servers, as well as having all the RSExecRole rights as specified in BOL. And it has rights to logon as a service in group policy on both machines. Its password hasn't been changed.
The RS Config Tool completed fine and reported no errors.
But when you try to connect to the report server you get the error:
"The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. The logon failed. (rsReportServerDatabaseLogonFailed)" The log shows that a privilege required by the client is missing but doesn't specify what! I thought this was all taken care of when the RS Config Tool told it which account to connect with.
This is driving me daft. It should be so easy!! Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong? Nothing says I need to do anything with the encryption key when I am keeping the report server itself exactly as it was and just moving the catalog - or have I missed something here?
Hi everybody, I moved my packages to the new machine, and have problem with parent variables. When child package tries to get parent variable value I get an error:
Information: 0x40016042 at LoopPackage: The package is attempting to configure from the parent variable "MAIN_SesId".
Warning: 0x80012028 at LoopPackage: Process configuration failed to set the destination at the package path of "Package.Variables[User::MAIN_SesId].Properties[Value]". This occurs when attempting to set the destination property or variable fails. Check the destination property or variable.
Hi All;We are going to change our application server. We will copy all of ourDatabase from Mic 2000 Server OS to Mic 2003 Server OS. I found anarticle that how to move all the folders from same OS. My question isthat Would the 2003 OS be a problem when we copy all of the MC SQL 2000folders to New OS ? Has anybody done this before? Could you gimme yoursuggestions please?ThanksASA
I have several data bases on a server (SQL Server 2000 only, no web server installed) and lately, as the company keeps gowing, my users complain saying the server gets slow, (this dbs are well designed and recieve optimizations and integrity checks, etc) because of this, Im thinking about getting a new server to repleace my old ProLiant ML 330 which was bought 4 years ago but Im concerned about what server arquitecture or characteristic can help me best to improve response performance, is it HD speed? Processor speed? or more Ram? I want to make a good decision, so I�d really appreciate your help...
Our DBAs want to speed up SQL database backup of a database of 4 GB data size into a network drive on another server. We are using WINNT 4.0 (SP3)& SQL Server 6.5 (SP4). We know that "Backup buffer size" SQL configuration parameter is a way of doing it. Below are results of increasing the value: 1. If the value is more than 10, the runnable value is always 10 even when stopping and starting SQL server services. 2. The SQL backup took much longer time than before when increasing the value from 5 to 10.
How to properly do it ? What could be the problem ? and are there any other considerations to meet ?
Note that total RAM of servers is 512 MB out of which 128 MB is allocated to SQL server.
Anyone's experience and cooperation will be highly appreciated. Regards, Einas (DBA)
Hello, I've been trying for a couple of days now with the following problem in SQL Ive a table called tblRresults that has the following Date - just a regular date OfficeLocation - just a unique id such as a zip code SampleType - contains things like wall, floor, beam SampleResult - "Detected" or "NotDetected" When populated the table can look like 12/12/05 99505 Wall Detected 12/12/05 99505 Wall NotDetected 10/04/05 99211 Beam Detected 10/04/05 99211 Beam Detected 10/04/05 99111 Floor NotDetected 10/04/05 99111 Floor NotDetected What I want is (I guess) a crosstab query that produces the following Date Location SampleType CountDetected CountNotDetected 12/12/05 99505 Wall 1 1 10/04/05 99211 Beam 2 0 (or null would be ok) 10/04/05 99111 Floor 0 2 Any help gratefully accepted, this has been driving me mental! thanks
1) if our .net app (oltp) is changed to ask sql for encryption (rather than thru .net) on server A, can server B where our wh resides, thru a linked server run an sp remotely on A and get A to provide decryption thru the keys defined there? 2)can the encryption keys etc defined on one server be imported to another server and still behave exactly the same way on the 2nd server as they do on the first? ie decrypt data originally encrypted by the first successfully.
i am in the process of creating some new reports on a new Reporting Services site
reports developed in VisualStudio2005 pointing an an AnalysisServices Cube on a (development) SQL2005 database
when i Preview the reports in Visual Studio 2005 on my development box, the reports take about 12-15 seconds to run (about 4-5 seconds before the "Report is being generated" logo appears, then another 8-10 seconds before the report appears (report is a series (1-8) of charts))
when i run the same report (with the same report criteria) via the Report Manager (pointing at the same AnalysisServices Cube), it now takes about 45 seconds to run (about 15 -16 seconds before the "Report is being generated" logo appears, then another 30 seconds before the report appears)
(n.b. this is not due to initial Report Manager start-up delays, the timings are for the second and third run of the report)
can anyone out there point me in the direction of where to look ??
Well good morning/afternoon to everyone. It's been a while sinse I've posted here and it seems that the site is a lot faster now. Good to see. :) Anyways, I'm working a current problem here at work with our database being quite slow. I've done some research already and will continue to do so but i wanted to get some of your opinions. Right now, I've run the 'DBCC SHOWCONTIG' command and it is telling the following in the first 3 system tables: DBCC SHOWCONTIG scanning 'sysobjects' table... Table: 'sysobjects' (1); index ID: 1, database ID: 6 TABLE level scan performed. - Pages Scanned................................: 34 - Extents Scanned..............................: 12 - Extent Switches..............................: 33 - Avg.

Bytes Free per Page.....................: 6712.0 - Avg. Page Density (full).....................: 17.07% According to the DBCC SHOWCONTIG command documentation, there should be no fragmentation at all. Some questions: 1. would system performance be severly negatively reduced with the above fragmentation (logical and extent)? 2. can the 'DBCC INDEXDEFRAG(dbname, tablename, indexname)' command be issued against those system tables without consequences? 3. is there some other command that can defrag the entire database without having to specify which tables? Also, I have also used the index tuning wizard after a profile trace but that failed with some unknown error. Thats it for now, please let me know if you have some info I could use to help speed up my database.
I am asking this question on behalf of a friend. I have little knowledge of SQL 2005 but my friend is quite knowledgeable, although this is the first time he is dealing with large database for a client. So here's the story.
His client has a database containing 1.5 million books. Now he is setting up a website which will enable users to search books. Searching by ISBN is no problem as it only takes 1 seconds. The problem is, searching by Title takes more than 20seconds, which is unacceptable. My friend has only done smaller database and he just recently thought of implementing indexing and now looking for other ideas.
Each row contains book details such as Title, Author1, Author2, Author3, Publisher, Publication Date, ISBN, etc.
Can anyone who are more experienced in doing large database share with me some design ideas? His client is aiming for 8seconds or less.
I want to install only the Reporting Service (and Analyzing Service) on a machine without any database (I will create a dedicated SQL Machine later on). Now, after the installation process I can see a SQL Server in my Installed Programs View. To me this looks like a complete SQL Server installation,but this is not what I wanted (I only checked the two services during the Setup). Or are those just some supoorting components?
I have used backup and restore method to upgrage 2000 databases to 2005 database. What do i need to do in order to for my application or users to use databse in 2005 and remove 2000
Help! I am using Script Transformation to output a new column as image[DT_IMAGE] field to store serialized object. In the VB script, the sample code as
The package always runs fine on my developing machine and will halt on other machine at AddBlobData after certain number row records were processed. I am stuck here. Anyone has any suggestion?
What I need is reading data from mutiple tables in one database and writing into a single table in another datable. In order preserve all the columns data, I use input column fields to construct a new object and then serialize it, and store the serialize data into detination db table. (The object and serialization function is coming from c# dll.)
Dim b As BusinessLicense = New BusinessLicense() b.ApprovalDate = Row.approvaldate b.BusinessId = Row.busid b.BusinessName = Row.busname b.NaicsCode = Row.naicscode b.NaicsDescription = Row.naicsdescr b.OwnerName = Row.ownername b.Phone = Row.phone b.Pkey = Row.pkey b.RenewalDate = Row.renewaldate b.StartDate = Row.startdate b.Suite = Row.suite
Row.serializedobject.AddBlobData(Serializer.Serialize(b)) '''----This is blocking line Row.infoType = BusinessLicense.TYPE

Hi to everyone, I'm facing a problem that drives me crazy. I've a web application that has the following problem. When I test the application on my developement machine all runs fine, but when I put into production server there is a problem in connection pooling. Look at the following image, the blue line is the number of connection in the pool and the violet line is the number of connection reclaimed. From the image it is clear that connection are returned on the pool only in block, maybe when the garbage collection pass and reclaim the object. The strange thing is that on my developement machine all is good, and also I'm using Enterprise Library and the connection are managed internally.- Thanks to everyone for any help.
Hullo all I have two machines, One is a standalone machine and the other is on a domain network.
