Good day,
Currently, i'm using SQL 2000 & having a replication database from district to HQ. Then, I need to remove a reference key from one of replicate table.
So, what I need to do & how to remove reference key? I wish someone here can help me out..
Beside, any impact might happen if remove reference key?
I have a production server log shipping to a secondary server every 30 minutes (both SQL 2000), which the second server is used for both a warm standby server and for reporting from users. Issue: the log shipping locks the DB so reporting can't be done until the load is finished, the load to the second set of databases has taken up to 15 minutes to finish allowing the users only 15 minutes to run reports, this is not acceptable. The server also needs to be used for DR.
I am looking for another solution, I can't use Transactional Log shipping as not all of the tables in the databases have a primary key identified. So, I am looking for a real-time or near real-time reporting server that is more available to running reports and a warm standby server for Disaster recovery. I am trying to figure out what SQL Server 2000 has to provide (or even 2005 or 2008?) or I am also looking at some third party software, but not sure what is the best for a reasonable price.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks....JB
Hi
Can we do two way transactional replication in WAN environment user SQL SERVER 2005 STANDARD EDITION.

Hi There
View 4 Replies View Related1) I have the Active/Passive cluster environment (using Microsoft cluster service).
2) SQL2000 is installed on the cluster (Virtual instance).
3) Virtual instance of SQL Server is used as Publisher in Transactional replication with updatable subscribers.
4) Subscribers are passing updates to subscriber using MSMQ
5) The problem is : after I establish replication , the Queue Agent fails with following error (“Failed to initiate search for MSMQs”)
We are working in a Merge replication environment where we have SQL Server 2005, 11 publications and 2 subscribers.We used to get lot of incidents from the Application owner for blockings, recently we faced a situation where the lead blocker is in sleeping state and the session was used by the merge agent.Checked the query that the session was running, it was sys.sp_MSenumgenerations90;1.

is it ok to run index rebuild script on publisher and after that in subscriber? what are the steps i need to take to do this?
will it affect the replication? please help me here.

Even you learn 1%, Learn it with 100% confidence.
We are running 2 SQL Server and both run in failover clustered Environment.
The Problem is now we need to Replicate a Database from one Virtual SQL Sever to the other.
The Second one (clusterd environment)is stroing their database localy while the First One (clustered environment)is storing database in a shared storage.
Note that Both Server are used for sperate purpose , but we now need to set replication on the Other Clustered Setup for Reporting Purpose.
Will it work if we configure replication from One SQL Server Clustered Setup to the Other Clstered Setup.
If yes, then please let me know how it can be done ?
Thanks
Hi Friends
I have transactional replication,
The publisher DB contains table call Courser with timestamp column, this column values are unique for the publisher DB
The subscriber DB also contains same copy of data in publisher DB Course table, but the timestamp column values are different.
So my problem is how can I keep this two tables (Course) identically, (same timestamp column vales in both table)
NOTE: Publisher and Subscriber DB reside under two different SQL server instance
Thanks and regards

I created transactional replication on a database and setup pull subscriptions on each subscriber to run at a scheduled time once a day. The scheduled start time on each subscriber can differ. The transaction log on the publishing database will eventually consume all possible disk space. Is it possible (and safe) to shrink or truncate the transaction log file for the publishing database before all the subscribers completed running its daily pull subscription? If not, how can I manage disk space for the transaction log on the publishing database and ensure all transaction are replicated to the subscriber?
Thanks in advance.
Setting up Transaction Replication in test environment. I am willing to bet that most of you take a production backup (if so, how, and using what?), restoring the database to your test environment, then running a snapshot to your subscriber and away you go.
But perhaps you take a backup of your publisher and subscriber, if so, how do you know there are no inconsistences because there were transactions sitting on the distributor?
What do you do if you have additional indexes on the subscriber for reporting, that are not on the publisher?
Here at work we are having issues with getting consistent databases set up with T Rep, missing rows, duplicate keys at subscriber etc. How to avoid these issues.
I have a mobile device application using mobile sql 2005 replicating with sql 2000 in a x86 environment. This works fine!
I'm having issues getting this to work under Windows Server 2003 X64.
I've got all the components installed under the X64 environment including CLR 2.0 X64 and the mobile sql tools. the but when I run the Configure Web Synchronization Wizard I get the following error. SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Server Tools were not found on the IIS server. Run the SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Server Tools installer....
My question is: Were do I get the X64 version of these tools?
sqlce30setupen.msi
sql2Ken@P4.msi
The SQL environment is X86 as follows: SQL2000 SP4

Hi, all.
I have two server(Svr01, Svr02) that are replicated each other (Merge replication).
Svr01 must be Publisher distributor.. but, by mistake Svr02 is set to distributor, publisher. (Publisher/distributor are on the same comp..)
I want to fix this..
How?
I think I have to remove replication on both side and Reset from the first.
but, I don't know how to remove replication either..
Please reply with any thougt....
Hi All,
I had a HDD failure that caused the database to become SUSPECT. Thats ok we have backups to fall back on. Restoring the database failed because the database is used for repliacation, the database status was set to LOADING (in middle of restore). Because of this status I am unable to remove the repliaction to allow the database restore.
Whats a way to change the database status from loading? Or is there any way of removing it completely and starting again from a backup? Can I force repliaction to be removed?
Thanks for taking the time to look at my problem, all help and suggestions are much appreciated.
Cheers,
Dan
Hi all,
I try to remove a replication with from my MS SQL 2000
DECLARE @publication AS sysname
DECLARE @publicationDB AS sysname
SET @publication = N'MyDB_merge'
SET @publicationDB = N'MyDB'
-- Remove the merge publication.
USE [MyDB]
EXEC sp_dropmergepublication @publication = @publication;
-- Remove replication objects from the database.
USE master
EXEC sp_replicationdboption
@dbname = @publicationDB,
@optname = N'merge publish',
@value = N'false'
GO
but seems to do nothing, how many time cost this operation?
MSSQL search something ?
There is a solution for remove rapidly a replication from my database.
Thank's a lot bye

Problem: I have a user who wants to remove table, but when she tries to remove it ( drop the table), she gets an error:
===========================================================
MSG 3724, Level 16, State 2, Line 6: Cannot drop the table, 'dbo.<table name>' because it is being used for replication.
MSG 2714, Level 16, State 6, Line 2
There is already an object named '<table name>' in the database.
============================================================
To investigate, I saw the following:
In the SSMS---> Replcation---> Local Publication--> [XYZ].Pub_XYZ
[SERVER Name].[XYZ_Replication]
                                               Â
Local Subscriptions:
[Reference DB].[ServerInstance].[Instance Name]:ABC.ABC_TO_XYZ.Reference DB).
How do I remove that table? Do I need to edit Replication? How? Which one?
I want to remove article from my Transactional replication, can I just simply uncheck it from GUI, or it requires anything else.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi I have a problem. I have a replicated database. Now I have a couple of tables within the database where I delete the content row by row and caluted the new record and insert them. Now when I do this on the development system that is unreplicate it is fine. However on production that is replicated I get this error:
System.Web.HttpUnhandledException: Exception of type System.Web.HttpUnhandledException was thrown. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_VARLISTS_USERVARLISTS'. The conflict occurred in database 'BHP', table 'USERVARLISTS', column 'AutoID'.
INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_VARLISTS_USERVARLISTS'. The conflict occurred in database 'BHP', table 'USERVARLISTS', column 'AutoID'.
INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_VARLISTS_USERVARLISTS'. The conflict occurred in database 'BHP', table 'USERVARLISTS', column 'AutoID'.
Now I persume this is caused by the foreign key being contrained by the replicated database. I had though about unticking the box 'Enforce Relationship for replication' but I am not sure what problems this may cause.
Woudl this fix my problem? If not do you have any idea what would.
Thanks Ed
One of our users tried to set replication solution in a sqlserver (the idea was given up).
SQL Server added in each table a column related to replication.
We want to remove theses columns and I used the following script :
select 'ALTER TABLE dbo.'+object_name(id)+' DROP CONSTRAINT '+object_name(constid)+' GO'
+'ALTER TABLE dbo.'+object_name(id)+' DROP COLUMN '+'msrepl_tran_version GO'
from sysconstraints where object_name(constid) like '%msrep%'
Question:
1. I want to know how to introduce a carraige return in order to have some thing like this :
...
ALTER TABLE dbo.T_CommandCopyFile
DROP CONSTRAINT DF__T_Command__msrep__44AB0736
GO
ALTER TABLE dbo.T_CommandCopyFile
DROP COLUMN msrepl_tran_version
...
2. Is there any other solution to do this more simply ?

After I setup the merge replication in SQL SERVER 7.0, there is a rowguid column (datatype uniqueidentifier) inserted into each table in the both the source and destination database.
I need to get rid of the rowguid column in all tables. I deleted the replication, but the column still existed.
Is there an easy way to get rid of all the rowguid column in the database? Thanks for your reponse in advanced.

Hi all,
I'm a rather newbie, not only to this forum but also to sql server having a question to the following issue:
Is it possible to drop/remove/delete the "orphan" of a merge subscription on one instance of sql server without having the (former) distributor/publisher (on other instance) available?
The background is: I had a small replication infrastructure with two instances (on two machines), one the publisher and distributor, the other the subscriber. Now it happened that the publisher/distributor machine was completely set up new without having the replication dropped in advance, what remained on the subscriber is now a database with all the merge/replication tables and the guid columns in the user tables.
Moreover this, an entry remained in the subscription saying that a subscription with the former publisher exists...
Can I remove these "orphans" without having to setup the instance again?
Thank you,
Andy
We are runnning on SQL Server 2012 SP1 + CU9.
I have found some articles with no publication in our transactional replication.
For example, running this:
select p.publication,
a.publication_id,
a.article
from dbo.MSArticles as a
left outer join dbo.MSpublications as p
on a.publication_id = p.publication_id
shows this:
NULL1org_Community
NULL3org_Community
Purchasing to EDW5org_Community
NULL1org_Division
NULL3org_Division
Purchasing to EDW5org_Division
How can I get rid of the articles that are not part of a publication?
I can't use sp_droparticle because it requires a publication which these articles do not have.
I am using vs 2010 to write my dtsx import scripts.I use a script component as a source to create a flat file destination file.Everything have been working fine,but then my development machine crashed and we have to install everything again.Now when i use the execute package utility to test my scripts i get the following error:
Error system.NullReferenceException: Object refrence not set to an instance reference.
In PreExecute section
TextReader = new system.io.streamreader(" file name")
In the CreateNewOutputRows:
dim nextLine as string
nextLine = textReader.ReadLine
[code]...
is there something which i did not install or what can be the error?

I have uninstalled the CTP version of the SQL Server express so that I can install the released version but CTP version is still listed in the add/remove program list but without the change/remove button. I have been to different sites to find information on cleaning this up and I have ran all the uninstall tool I can find but the problem still prevails. I cannot install the released version without completely getting rid of the CTP version. Please help anyone.
Thanks

There isn't any error message or whatsoever. Actually, when i try to log it in my SQL Management studio, that certain sql instance name is not existing according to the message box. Is there any way to remove the Sql Instance in my system?
I appreciate your help, Thanks

Good morning,
I am a DBA and my boss recently recommended that we change our QA environment so that we don't have any databases on it unless they are actively being tested. This would be to save hardware costs.
The only issue I can think of at this point is that promotion to our QA environment would take up to 2 hours for some of our larger databases if we have to restore production databases to qa for every QA run.
Is this a good idea? How do you run your QA (full or partial copy of prod)? Any input appreciated.
Thank you.
Hi!
I work on a company where we today have one SQL Server Standard Edition and Reporting Services (SSRS) and Analysis Services (SSAS) installed on the same server.
Now we want to install SQL Server Enterprise Edition, but still have the Standard Edition installed.
We are gonna invest in one more server.
I wonder if its possible to install the database engine for both versions on one server and then install instances of SSRS and SSAS on the other server?
Can Standars Edition have SSRS and SSAS on another server than the Database Engine?
And is it different versions of SSRS and SSAS between SQL SE and SQL EE, or does SSRS and SSAS get the SQL EE benefits if the database engine is SQL EE?
Thanks in advance!
I have about 23 SQL servers running 6.5 SP3 or SP5a in a 24 hour environment. Most of the activity takes place between 6am and 11pm, with few transaction after 11pm. What is best to do with the main DB's transaction log, have the truncate at checkpoint option checked OR back up the transaction log a couple times a week? The Database is backed up every 6-8 hours.
Thanks in advance for your opinions/help.
