I would like to use powershell commands within my TSQL scripts. how to do that?
The reason is that up until now I have been using SQLCMD and XP_CMDSHELL to rename files before importing them into a database. Powershell is a better tool for this job.
I have a SQL Server 2014 instance running on a SQL Server 2008 R2 server. The server is not clustered, it is just a stand alone SQL Server. The syspolicy_ purge_history job fails every now and then with the error message: "A job step received an error at line 1 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is 'import-module SQLPS -DisableNameChecking'. Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'Access to the path 'PowerShell_CommandAnalysis_Lock' is denied. '. Process Exit Code -1. The step failed."
Google isn't bringing up much besides the whole"If this is a clustered server make sure you have the right server name in the command" answer, which isn't the case here. Some days this job fails and some days it succeeds. I have checked out task scheduler to see if there were any conflicts there, found nothing. Nothing in the event viewer either.
I'm trying to create a restore job for restore job in sql using PowerShell but I get the following error:
The job script encountered the following errors. These errors did not stop the script:
A job step received an error at line 1 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is 'Set-location "filelocation"'.
Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'Cannot find path 'filelocation' because it does not exist.
' A job step received an error at line 3 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is 'get-childitem -Filter '*.trn' | Select FullName, LastWriteTime | sort LastWriteTime -Descending | ft -AutoSize'.
Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'Cannot call method. The provider does not support the use of filters. '. Process Exit Code -1. The step failed.
I am searching for a Powershell script which picks Windows Server names from SQL server table(eg: Instance.DB.tbServerList) & writes last reboot date to SQL server table(can be same or different table).

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to automate the setup of SQL server 2014 Standard edition with SSRS. To avoid SSRS being setup using the default port 80 for the webservice and report manager url's, I've chosen to install SQL server with the setting RSINSTALLMODE="FilesOnlyMode" and then use powershell to do the final setup steps.To setup the ReportServer database, I use the "GenerateDatabaseCreationScript" method available in the "MSReportServer_ Configuration Setting" class.
This succeeds without problems however when I use my browser to connect to the web service or report manager url's, I get a "rsInvalid Report Server Database" and a "rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable " error, respectively.Running the stored procedure named GetDbVersion in the ReportServer database returns "C.0.9.45". If I delete the ReportServer database and then recreate it database manually with the Report Services Configuration manager, the same stored procedure returns "162".
So it seems to me there's a problem with the GenerateDatabaseCreationScript but I can't find any information on this. How can I automate the setup of SSRS and ensure it does not use port 80? There are many manual solutions involving multi-step GUI solutions but the key for me is to automate this with powershell which doesn't appear to be possible.
I'm building a simple webform, except Visual Studio and my service provider have combined to drive me nutty.
First, I MUST use an ODBC connection to my remote SQL Server do to some unknown configuartion problem. I've been playing with Visual Studio for only a month, so normally when something goes wrong I can go look in the mirror and find the culprit. This is different. I've got a totally functional web form with a SQL Connection, but when I try to change it to an ODBC Connection, I get the following error.
An OdbcParameter with ParameterName '@CertHolder' is not contained by this OdbcParameterCollection
My coding is fine because I stole it straight from the walkthrough and it works. But the specifications that Visual Studio provide are quite suspect. Please note the failure to include some key "@" signs.

Hi,
I am trying to get performance data using powershell. When I run the command "get-wmiobject -list" I get classes like
Win32_PerfRawData_MSSQLSQLEXPRESS1_MSSQLSQLEXPRESS1Locks. However when I run the command
get-wmiobject -query "select * from Win32_PerfRawData_MSSQLSQLEXPRESS1_MSSQLSQLEXPRESS1Locks" powershell gives me an error. Why is this happening? any help in this regard is appreciated.

I have a new problem with doing a restore of a number of databases using powershell. The script I'm using is based mainly on this one (Part 2 in particular): [URL] .....
The problem I'm having is around the RedgateGetDatabaseName function. My hunch is that its down to the different version of red gate and how sqlbackup works. Basically when the call is made to the function it is returning both the Database Name and the number of row's that the SQL command in the function has ran. I've tried to include a SET NOCOUNT ON at the start of the SQL command in the function but its still returning the now count.
When I execute the following command, I get the output truncated to 79 characters, including three dots (as an ellipsis, I suppose).
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'powershell.exe "Get-ChildItem D:Databazepaleontologieprilohyverejneg -filter g417*.* -recurse | select Fullname | out-string -width 255"'When I execute the core command directly in Powershell, whether the text or ISE version, it works correctly, with or without the out-string -width command.
Get-ChildItem D:Databazepaleontologieprilohyverejneg -filter g417*.* -recurse | select Fullname | out-string -width 255What does it take to get SSMS to not truncate my output strings?
I am trying to create a job using power-shell script to move the backup files from one folder to another. I am using Ola Hallengren script for backups. Ola hallengren created a common backup folder with sub-folders for databases and even more sub folders for Full and Log backups. My goal is to move full backups, which are older than a month and save them in a different drive along with the same folder structure. I was able to move the first set of backups without any problem, but I can't move anymore files and keep getting this error even when I try to overwrite the previous file with the force statement:
Move-Item : Cannot create a file when that file already exists.
At line:5 char:9
+ Move-Item $i.FullName C:Test -force
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : WriteError: (C:BackupVALIDATIONgcommon:DirectoryInfo) [Move-Item], I
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : MoveDirectoryItemIOError,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.MoveItemCommand
Here's the script that I used to move the first set of files:
foreach ($i in Get-ChildItem C:BackupVALIDATION)
{
if ($i.CreationTime -lt ($(Get-Date).AddMonths(-1)))
{
Move-Item $i.FullName C:Test
}
}
I want to run a powershell script using xp_cmdshell, put the results into a temp table and do some additional stuff.I'm using:

)
INSERT INTO #DrvLetter
EXEC xp_cmdshell 'powershell.exe -noprofile -command "gwmi -Class win32_volume | ft capacity, freespace, caption -a"'
select * from #DrvLetter
SQL server is cutting off the output, what I get is (consider the 3 dots at the end of a line):

I've been asked to create a new SQL server and restore an old server's DBs to the new server.
I'd like to generate a list of the DB names using powershell to distribute to their creators, in case some of these DBs are no longer needed.
SQL Server 2005: Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Edition (64-bit)
Microsoft Windows NT 5.2 (3790)
SQL Version 9.00.3175.00
I have 2 identical servers... one for DEV and one for TEST. On the DEV server, I can use xp_cmsdhell to execute "administrative commands" such as NET SHARE and AT. On the identically configured TEST server, I can not. Those command return the "System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied" error. I CAN run other commands via xp_cmdshell (DIR, NET USE, etc.). This is true regardless of the account I connect as.
The SQL Server service accounts in both instances are domain accounts belonging to the local admin group.
I "know" that I ran across this when setting up the DEV server and am "fairly sure" I found a reference to a known problem with 2005's xp_cmdshell and administrative commands. But for the life of me I can not now find any such reference, nor can I find any differences between the DEV and TEST servers in the area of users, groups, policies, or anything else security-related. (99.9% of the internet searches I do end up being about either enabling xp_cmdshell -- done -- or setting up an xp_cmdshell proxy account -- not needed).
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I saw a presentation last week where the speaker created some sorta sql server "watch window" (in Sql Server Management Studio I think) where he could watch all the commands being executed on his sql server database in real-time. For example he could navigate to web pages (that hit the database) and as he pressed buttons you could see the sql commands execute in this "watch window." If other users hit the database at the same time you could see those sql queries execute as well. I didn't think at the time to ask how he did it - does anyone know how to set this up? I have a problem with my sql server right now and it would be useful to see which sql queries (etc) are being executed when. Thanks in advance,J. Shane Kunklejkunkle@vt.edu

I would like to enable users that do not belong to groups (server roles) such as sysadmin, serveradmin and don't have db permissions such as ddl_admin or db_owner to run some of the system stored procedures (such as sp_addumpdevice sp_configure sp_serveroption ...) and DBCC commands (such as DBCC CHECKFILEGROUP - requires ob_owner or sysadmin permission).

I would get from scripting the replication out from SQL Server itself. However, there are a couple of things that are not showing up in the script,Adding the option to IncludeUninstallDistributor or UninstallDistributor doesn't appear to add any code to actually do that. i.e. the below code is never added.
/****** Uninstalling the server as a Distributor. Script Date: 10/1/2015 4:34:13 PM ******/
use master
exec sp_dropdistributor @no_checks = 1, @ignore_distributor = 1
GO
Also, adding the reverse for the create script generation, IncludeInstallDistributor or InstallDistributor, does not add the below code.
use master
exec sp_adddistributor @distributor = N'xxxxxx', @password = N''
GO
The purpose of the script is simply to script out all drop/create scripts for all publications and subscriptions, run the drop script, restore over the databases using backups of non-replicated databases, run the create replication script, and have it re-sync.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAs a part of DBA, I used to execute various SQL files. Most of the time, it is like a manual effort to execute the files individually.
I am looking to automate the process, like a single click to execute all the .SQL files.
The main hurdle I have is, some files needs to be executed in A1 database, some in B1 database and some other SQL files need to be executed in C1 database. In this scenario, I need to pass the DBName information to the powershell query dynamically.
My design for this requirement is, say each .SQL file need to contain a template like
@DBName = 'your Database name'
@Executeon = 'When to execute'
In this case, the powershell first need to read the SQL file and finds the value for @DBName and replace it in the powershell query and execute the SQL files automatically.
Is it feasible ? Or any other alternate easier way to proceed.
