SQL 2012 :: AlwaysOn AG Replicating Much Slower Than Mirroring

Sep 30, 2014

I'm setting up AG replication over our WAN (1GB MPLS). Using sql stress, AG replication quickly falls behind. Network throughput plateaus at ~14Mbs.

The problem ISN'T NETWORK

using conventional mirroring, the same workload never falls behind, throughput plateaus at ~26Mbs.

it's almost like log stream compression isn't happening for AG...

both mirroring and AG are using async.

I have a SP that runs on the primary in 18 min and 45 min on the secondary( poorly written cursor,trying to fix it).Both machines are Exactly the same.I ran them in the middle of the night when no one was on the Sec. Node as we use it for reporting.

PLE: 7,000+
AVG Disk sec/write below .01
AVG Disk sec/read below .01

SQL 2012 :: Server Monitoring AlwaysOn / Mirroring Via Zabbix

Feb 4, 2015

We currently use Zabbix to monitor our SQL Servers, generally we use Perf_Counters to gather performance information (CPU Usage, Memory, Blocked process etc.), Zabbix also lets us monitor services as to whether they are up or down. I have searched google looking for any information regarding the monitoring of AlwaysOn/Mirroring within Zabbix and to date ave found nothing. What I am looking to alert on is an indication that Mirroring has stopped/ been interrupted with say something like "Not Synchronized"... Zabbix and monitoring SQL Server 2012 and specifically monitoring AlwaysOn...

Recovery :: Failover Cluster With Mirroring With AlwaysOn?

Jun 30, 2015

we have to build high availability SQL 2012 cluster for VDI and we have two options. One option is to build a server cluster with combination of failover and mirroring and other option is to build failover cluster with AlwaysOn.We are not sure which option to chose. We have contacted Microsoft support to provide us some documents and instructions for failovermirroring combination but they have send us instructions for AlwaysOn option.

What would be best way to build high availability cluster for VDI? Also, since first option is very complicated.

Help Cursor Based Stored Procedure Is Getting Slower And Slower!

Jul 20, 2005

I am begginner at best so I hope someone that is better can help.I have a stored procedure that updates a view that I wrote using 2cursors.(Kind of a Inner Loop) I wrote it this way Because I couldn'tdo it using reqular transact SQL.The problem is that this procedure is taking longer and longer to run.Up to 5 hours now! It is anaylizing about 30,000 records. I thinkpartly because we add new records every month.The procedure works like this.The first Cursor stores a unique account and duedate combination fromthe view.It then finds all the accts in the view that have that account duedatecombo and loads them into Cursor 2 this groups them together for datamanipulation. The accounts have to be grouped this way because aaccount can have different due dates and multiple records within eachaccount due date combo and they need to be looked at this way aslittle singular groups.Here is my procedure I hope someone can shead some light on this.

SQL 2012 :: Merge Replication Not Replicating All Changes?

Oct 7, 2015

We have a publisher sending data to two remote subscribers. Each of these sites is updating a different field in a particular table with its site name and the current date stamp. This data should then sync to each database to show how up to date the last data change was. This lets us keep an eye on whether sync is good or not.

The problem I've got is one subscriber isn't copying its row to the other servers anymore. It gets the row updates from the other sites in the same table but its own updates to this field aren't getting sent across. Nothing shows up in conflict manager for it and nor should it as no other subscriber should be updating this field. If I validate the subscription the field when then get synced but again no updates after the validation will transfer. The other problem which may be related or indicating another issue is the data transfer rate shown in replication monitor is less than 0.1 rows/sec. Reinitializing isn't an option.

Recovery :: 2012 R2 High Availability Database Not Replicating?

May 19, 2015

Discovered that a geo-spatial AlwaysOn HA database (1 of 4) was not synchronizing as at a point in time earlier in the day.  Suspend Data Movement appears to be working perpetually without finishing.  The SQL Server services is in a Pending Changes state after an attempt to restart it from SQL Configuration Manager.  The Cluster Dashboard says it is in a Not Synchronizing state, with only the one database in question having a yellow triangle, all 3 others show green.  

The warning for the cluster is:At least one availability database on this availability replica has an unhealthy data synchronization state. If this is an asynchronous-commit availability replica, all availability databases should be in the SYNCHRONIZING state. If this is a synchronous-commit availability replica, all availability databases should be in the SYNCHRONIZED state.  There is no abnormal data movement from the primary to the seconday.The warnings for the unhealthy database are:

The data synchronization state of this availability database is unhealthy. On an asynchronous-commit availability replica, every availability database should be in the SYNCHRONIZING state. On a synchronous-commit replica, every availability database should be in the SYNCHRONIZED state.Either a database administrator or the system has suspended data synchronization on this availability database.So how to get this database back to synchronizing state?

Why SSIS Package Slower And Slower

Mar 1, 2008

hi, friends, please look at this:

I have a SSIS package, and inside it I do something like below:

1. I have a SQL component, to give back a object to store the records.
2. I have a VB script component, I direct the object I got in 1 step into the script as a dataset.


My problem is:
I run the package in the SQL SERVER 2005 Store Procedue like this:

do
dtexec.exe package.dtsx
loop untill i>t

I control the it runs 30 times. But I found that the speed is slower and slower.
the first time, it takes about 600 s, but the last time, it takes the 1800 s.

Why?
The package don't drop the object it create during the loop in the Store Procedue ?
Thanks!

SQL 2012 :: Backup Setup With AlwaysOn?

May 13, 2013

I'm setting up my first pair of Sql 2012 servers using AlwaysOn. I set up backups to run on the primary and I understand that you can set up backups to run on both the primary and secondary servers but the secondary will fail. Is there a way I can stop the secondary server from sending out error messages about failed backups? Is it possible to script it so that the server looks at whether it's primary or secondary and turns on or off alerts based on that?

SQL 2012 :: AlwaysOn With Clustered Disks

Mar 13, 2014

I am trying to build the 2 node 2 clusters with the AlwaysOn.

Here isthe landscape.

2 nodes PROD failover cluster (running once instance)
2 nodes DR failover cluster (running 2 instances - DR and PRE-PROD)

Both clusters are in different geographies.

PRE-PROD can be editable. So out of scope of Always On.

One instance on PROD -> DR of the other box. [Want to achive thru AlwaysON]

Now my Question:

1) Do i need to have all the 4 nodes in same failover cluster group? If yes, then this would become MultiSubnet cluster Or Is there any way those 2 diffrerent failover clusters (one DR and one PROD) can be part of AlwaysOn.

2) Can i use the clustered disks as in the above landscape for always on?

SQL 2012 :: Maximum Cluster Nodes In AlwaysOn

Mar 17, 2014

How many nodes can you have in a cluster with SQL 2012 alwaysOn.

I understand that availability groups are limited to 5 nodes but if you had a 10 node cluster and decided to create multiple availability groups using various nodes within the 10 nodes but never exceeding 5, is that possible?

Or is there a counter or some validation from SQL AlwaysOn that actually hard limits to a grand total of 5 nodes in a cluster?

SQL 2012 :: AlwaysOn Read Only On 2nd Instance Server

Considering trying to move 2008 acitve/passive cluster with log ship to day old read only 2008 server to 2012 active/passive to 2012 AG Read only server. Only problem is that read only instance may have to be a 2nd instance on a server. The new box is a beast 64 core 256 gig of RAM hp so this is no dog. So I have these choices

migrate 2008 active/passive cluster to 2012 active passive (this will be it's own ordeal)take new monster box and build two instances, one that will run the AG read only database, the other will house reporitng services and analysis services and a few dw databases. We are not heavy into deep dive analysis services yet kind of in it's infancy. Not sure if this other instance will be sql 2008R2 , may be able to do 2012. MY also have a few small sharepoint databases but they barely use it.

SQL 2012 :: AlwaysOn Failover Due To Missed Heartbeats

Dec 10, 2014

I have setup SQL AlwaysOn between primary and DR data centers. Here is the setup:

Primary data center: Server1 (Primary), Server2 (Sync Commit Secondary), Server3 (ASync Commit Secondary)

DR data center: Server4 (ASync Commit Secondary)

Data synchronization and manual failover works fine. But, sometimes, the AlwaysOn cluster automatically fails over to Sync Commit Secondary on Primary data center. Here is the error message from Failover Cluster Manager->Cluster Events:

"Cluster has missed two consecutive heartbeats for the local endpoint xx.xx.xx.yy:~3343~ connected to remote endpoint xx.xx.xx.zz:~3343~"

"Cluster has lost the UDP connection from local endpoint xx.xx.xx.yy:~3343~ connected to remote endpoint xx.xx.xx.zz:~3343~"

I had our network engineer check all connections multiple times and he confirmed everything is fine. But he was also able to confirm (using monitoring tools) that right at the time of a failover, there is almost 2GB worth of traffic going from Primary Server to DR server. That happens every time. I had checked the times of all failovers and there is no job or process occuring that will produce 2GB worth of data. Also, this happens regardless of which server is primary.

Even though the failover works fine, this unexpected automatic failover due to missed heartbeats are occurring often (2-3 times a month).

Here is the list of errors from the Cluster Validation Report:

Under Network Section, I see the following error messages in Red:

Validate Network Communication

Network interfaces Server4 (DR) - SAN_Team and Server1 (Primary) - SAN_Team - VLAN 20 are on the same cluster network, yet address xx.xx.xx.pp is not reachable from xx.xx.xx.yy using UDP on port 3343.

Network interfaces Server4 (DR) - SAN_Team and Server2 (Secondary) - SAN_Team - VLAN 20 are on the same cluster network, yet address xx.xx.xx.qq is not reachable from xx.xx.xx.yy using UDP on port 3343.

Update L2.DB.Owner.Table
set flag = 1
Whare a = 0

On S1 I have a linkedServer with connection to L2.

If I have a failover I cannot have L2 on S2 as they are essentially the same server.

SQL 2012 :: Setup AlwaysOn On Existing Cluster?

May 19, 2015

We have an existing SQL Server 2012 Enterprise cluster with 2 nodes (active-active) and uses Windows 2008 R2 OS. We are looking for a way to increase HA as well as offload backups to secondary server and it was suggested that AlwayOn could be an option.

The questions I have are:

1) Is it possible to turn on AalwaysOn feature on an existing cluster?

2) If yes to above, does the secondary replica need to exist as a node on the same cluster or can it be on a completely different cluster?

3) If the secondary replica is on the same cluster (i.e. we add a 3rd node to existing 2 node cluster), can that node be provisioned with storage from a completely different SAN? (i.e. Node 1 and Node 2 accesses LUNs on SAN1 and Node 3 accesses LUNs on SAN2).
