SQL 2012 :: Lockdown All Databases Except One
Sep 14, 2015
Our sql server 2012 contains 10+ databases. I need to let a developer work only with one specific and tempdb databases, and nothing else. I don't want them to see any of the other databases. When they login, they should only see tempdb and their assigned database. If I were to login with sa, then all databases should be available.
I created a "Test" user the developer will use for their work. I tried several settings, but could not get the desires results. I was able to get the "Test" user to login and ALL databases were hidden, including the one that the user has perms to.

whenever we are moving system databases from one drive to another, do we need to move the path physically? or it automatically moves.I want to try the rebuild the sql server. So I want to corrupt the master database so, I deleted the master mdf file and restore it back but instead of database corruption it is giving the following error message. How can I corrupt the master database and can practice the rebuild the server.
And one more thing when I try to use the repair option I couldn't able to get all the things back to normal. The database engine service, replication is not working but SSAS, SSRS things are showing successfully repaired.

A customer has messed up while moving their databases. After working for a week they found that data is missing in the database.I have two backups, one from the old server and one from the new server today, they have been working in the new one for a week.
I need to compare these two databases and then update the new database with all data that is in the old one but not in the new database. Join the data in the two databases so to say. Both databases are from the same application so they use the same users, schema and so on.

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?

Scenario: a stored procedure is executed in database ABC. The procedure includes a MERGE statement with objects in the ABC and DEF databases. A Windows login is executing the procedure. Contained users is not enabled anywhere on the instance. And the user is not orphaned in either database, i.e. the login is associated to the user correctly by-sid in each one.
Of course, the Windows login must be authenticated to access database ABC, and authorized to execute the procedure. That is happening. Most of the time, so is the MERGE statement. But every once in a while we're seeing an odd "Network error code 0x2746 occurred while establishing a connection" message. The procedure has a TRY/CATCH retry loop around the MERGE statement, so it enters that loop. Re-read: the procedure is still running, the network error wasn't about the client connection executing the procedure. So what was it about?
Does that MERGE statement, accessing database DEF, require SQL to authenticate the Windows login again, because it's a different database (even though it's on the same instance, and was already authenticated for ABC)? There shouldn't be any other network activity involved in that phase of the execution. Plus, when the process had been using a SQL Server-authenticated login, this never happened.
But before I go blaming our DCs or network... I need to know, are they in fact involved here, or not? I believe they are, but... never had to care enough before to really know. I'm trying to stave off the "let's switch it back to a SQL login" demand that's sure to come soon, if I can't find an appropriate resolution to this.

I have a SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition install that I am needing to do the following:
- Provide db_owner access to a single user. Have the db_owner privilege apply for the user in all Schemas of the database (this is a generic AD account that is being used for an application).
They are wanting me to do this because they do not want to get so granular as to tell me all of the objects that the user will need specific access to in any of the given Schemas of the database(s).I have 8 databases, and each one has additional Schemas. These are all contained in a Default instance.I am finding that without explicitly applying permissions to the various objects in the Schemas that are not the default Schema for this user, I am a bit stuck.Is there any way to have the db_owner permission apply to the single user for all the Schemas in a given database (without making them a Sysadmin)?

We are currently running sharepoint with SQL 2012 database. The consultant who configured Sharepoint for us is advising/insisting that we setup a daily maintenance job to shrink the data and log files. He is insisting that the lack of maintenance job to shrink the files daily is the reason we are running out of disk space.

I am trying to reconcile two different databases. Each database holds customer information and some of this information is represented as drop down tables. Here is how it is linked
Structure
Tables Fields
Attribute names Name, AttID, AttValue
Attribute Values AttID, AttValue, CustID, CustCode
Customer DBID, DBCode,CustID, CustCode, FName, LName
Database 1 Sample
Attribute name Attribute Values Customer
Color 8, 0 8, 1, 1234, 6 892, 14, 1234, 6, John, Doe
red 8, 1 8, 2, 1234, 6
blue 8,2
Database 2 Sample
Attribute name Attribute Values Customer
Color 5, 0 5, 3, 1234, 6 892, 14, 7434, 5, John, Doe
red 5, 3 5, 4, 1234, 6
blue 5,4
Within a database, the ATTID and Attcode link the attribute and attribute value tables and they link to the Customer table with CustID and Cust Code. One Customer may have multiple entries within the Attribute value table
The Customer tables in each database are linked by the DBID and DBCode values. The other ID's are not necessarily the same across databases.
The object is to compile a list of Customers where these attribute values vary between databases. There are approximately 56,000 Customers in the customer table and 710,000 entries in the attribute values table.
My attempts to do this have produced cross joins with millions of values returned

Every night all our DBCC CHECKDB runs on all our databases. The trouble is one of them is very large and the database is inaccessible whilst this runs. DBCC CHECKDB (dbname) WITH physical_only executed by user found 0 errors and repaired 0 errors. Elapsed time: 0 hours 24 minutes 46 seconds
This normally happens fairly shortly after the backup, and normally (but not always) after a series of these entries in the log.SQL Server has encountered 7976 occurrence(s) of I/O requests taking longer than 15 seconds to complete on file [D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL11. MSSQLSERVERMSSQ LDATA empdb.mdf] in database [tempdb] (2).Would this cause SQL to automatically run a CheckDB.

I would like to setup replica for one of the databases for reporting. The current environment is a 2 node cluster(active/passive). I would like to add a 3rd node that can server as a secondary replica. The secondary replica will be on asynchronous commit mode.
The database that needs to have alwayson setup has column level encryption enabled.
* Do I need to backup and restore the service master key on secondary server in order to have the column level encryption to work on secondary server?
* What would be preferred Quorum settings?
* What is the setting for 'readable secondary' for primary and replica db?
* What should be the setting for 'Connections in Primary Role' for primary and replica db?
* We are trying to setup without a Listner. Do I need to setup AG Listner? Can the application exclusively use the [secondary instance name].[replica DB name] without a listner?

Would this go a long way towards securing the data?
Database.Store(this)
Database.Delete(this)
Database.Load(this)
Where "this" is a single object mapped to a single stored procedure.
Two parameters are recommended: one to identify user, and one to specify an "action" or different SP.

just i see a database and a table 'tbl_OutBox_MT' where there is now primary key and have index (non unique, non cluster). and it store almost 3000000 data per everyday. and wipe out data from their and archive all data to other location and broadcast this table 'tbl_OutBox_MT' by mobile operator everyday from morning to evening. but when it perform broadcast it to mobile operator it takes huge time. because this table gather data from different sources (tables) by using complex query and INSER INTO statement and insert into this table.
I need to perform first, my observation is there is no primary key. when i run any complex query into this table it takes huge time and sometimes shows transaction deadlock error.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tbl_OutBox_MT](
[TRAN_ID] [varchar](36) NOT NULL,
[OUT_MSG_ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[OUT_MSG_ID_TELCO] AS (CONVERT([bigint],((((CONVERT([varchar](4),datepart(year,[PROCESS_TIME]),(0))+case len(CONVERT([varchar](2),datepart(month,[PROCESS_TIME]),(0))) when (1) then '0' else '' end)

Why are the user databases that were created in the MSSQLSERVER default instance showing up in the newly created ALPHAONE instance? I'm successfully logging into the alphaone database as it shows as "DASAlphaOne,1xxxPport) at the top of the treeview in ssms. I'm logging in as sa and can edit anything.
The issue here is that all the user databases are shown and can even be edited. I created this instance in an effort to hide databases from whoever is not supposed to see.I was expecting a clean instance with only the system databases..Is there something that can be set to keep each instance's databases private into itself?

automatically replicates new databases to Availability Group partners - if you do a little prep work on your environment first.To make it work:
1) Create linked servers on all group members pointing to all other servers in the group, with names matching the hostnames they represent.
2) Ensure suitable credentials (or 'current context' impersonation) for linked servers. Also: Enable RPC and RPC OUT
3) Run the DDL code below.
4) Schedule hadr_replicate_queue on [master] to run as often as you want initial syncs to occur. Every 5-10 minutes is plenty for most purposes.
5) Connect to an availability group listener and call CREATE DATABASE :)
I use a slightly more extended version of this code at home to do things like permissions synchronization across replicas - I essentially allow applications to install direct to an availability group replica and then have all the relevant objects replicate to other nodes. I don't really like going through manually and doing things, even though there's an AddIn from SQLSkills for management studio - it still requires manual intervention.
The main use I have for this at home is that I'm using the Azure pack, and want to automatically ensure that my newly created 'SQL Server Cloud' databases are highly available, plus it means when I install a non-alwayson aware product it doesn't require any extra work afterwards to allow failover to another machine.

I came across an issue while migrating from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012 and using AlwaysOn Group. For some strange reason, when ever i connect to the Listener name for each AlwaysOn group, it list all the databases which is on the SQL instance, so i would be able to see databases that is not part of that Availability Group. I am not using default port, so have to put the port after the Name to connect and both Instance and Listener are using different port.
Testing the fail over works fine too, when i perform a manual failover, i can connect to any of the databases in the group from my application with no problem.
Considering that the Listener Port is different to the port which the instance is using?

As the title says I re-indexed all of my databases using the wrong fill factor. Instead of using 90% as the fill factor I misunderstood and set this at 10%. So I believe my databases are now packed with a ton of unused space. The DB sizes should be about 5-6 GB but have since grown to 20-40GB. I am very new to SQL administration and don't know of a safe way to remove this unused space so that my databases return to their normal sizes. The databases do not grow very much at all so the free space is not really that necessary.

Based on the description below on average how many hours a month would it take to monitor and maintain the MSSQL Server databases?
Description of IT infrastructure.All Windows Servers and MSSQL Servers are up to date on patches and best practices.
Corporate site with 3 remote sites.
All remote sites have one DC and one MSSQL Server.
The corporate site has one MSSQL Server.
Replication is performed between the remote MSSQL databases and the corporate office MSSQL database.
There is no in-house DBA. All DBA services will have to be outsourced. I am trying to determine what is reasonable in budgeting for time involved for this service.
There is one project written in MS Access using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) with the backend residing on these database.
The question is on average approximately how many hours a month would it take to monitor and maintain the health of the MSSQL Servers database by a MSSQL DBA. The DBA will not have to create any user reporting, queries, etc. Just maintain the existing MSSQL Servers database.

I am setting up Availability Groups and I want to use the secondary replica to perform the full copy_only backups to reduce the load on the primary replica.But what is the best way to check for successful full backups on Availability Group databases?
Previously I could check the system table msdb.dbo.backupset but this is not available for copy_only backups.So I wonder how people are monitoring that their full backups have been successful?
Do you just check that the SQL Agent job that runs the backup was successful?
Or do you search the SQL Server Error Log for entries like "Database backed up. Database: xxx" where database xxx is in an Availability Group?
Or is there a better method?

Can we backup our cluster databases directly to tape using native backups (without using any third party tool) ? It's SQL Server 2012 two node Active/Passive cluster. One of the DB will be huge in size, hence checking if we can directly backup from the cluster instance to a tape.

Do we have a query which can also add the database name to above query output? The output must have columns with data against Name,Enabled,Database name

I designed the AlwaysOn wrong, but every time we fail over from primary server to another server, my applications cannot connect because the sql logins cannot connect to their default databases. Once I run the command to link the login with the user in the default database then the users are able to connect. Did I do something wrong when designing AlwaysOn?
