I am looking for a table where Maintenance Clean Up Task configuration is stored. For example, Delete file older than the following - which is 2 days. Which table can I retrieve the setting in msdb ?
The error is "The table with Name of 'Table Name' does not exist.An error occurred when loading the Model."
We get this error when we try to check the properties of an analysis server using SQL Server Management studio. We have resolved this issue twice by Stopping the SQL Server analysis service,removing db folders from Analysis Server Data folder and starting the services back on. The db folder that we removed was advised by the BI team.
We have one table where we store all documents in one of the column called "Doc" with varbinary(max) data type.
We want to download those documents from sql table to windows explorer and i wrote BCP in sql 2005. And things were fine.
The format file I used there looks like this,
9.0 1 1 SQLBINARY 0 0 "" 1 Doc ""
Now we are in 2014 and when I try the same code with same format file, it hangs in the middle. So I changed the file to 12.0 instead of 9.0 but still not working.
I have built a SQL 2014 Always on Cluster. I need to create three Availability groups and listeners in the same instance. Do I need 3 separate IP address for each listener or one IP address can be shared for all 3 Listeners ?
we have roughly 22 people connected to one database. But after a while, their applications begin to drag due to in and out communication with the server. When i check the active connections on the sql server, some times i see 157 active connections, please how to i set a timeout or connection interval close, so as reduce the heavy load being put on the server. Or how can i automatically close connections when they get higher than 50 connections.
I want to set up a database role so that users can use sp_readerrorlog through SSMS. It does a check on membership in the securityadmin role.
I have tested it and can see you can grant execute on xp_readerrorlog but the SSMS GUI uses sp_readerrorlog.
I thought I could create a user/certificate and add the signature to sp_readerrorlog but it's not permitted (likely because it's not a normal database object).
So the other solution is to add the users to the securityadmin role but then explicitly deny alter any login (best done with a custom server role in 2012+ but otherwise just manually in 2008). I tested this out and it works, I'm not able to alter any logins or increase my own permissions, I also did a check of what's reported from fn_my_permissions(null, null) and it shows minimal permissions like I'd expect.
I have an IS package that contains some legacy DTS tasks. The package does run successfully on some machines, but others not at all, generating a weird error that says "Error: The task failed to load. The contact information for the task is "Execute DTS 2000 Package Task;Microsoft Corporate...." There's more to the error but searching on it hasn't turned up any results so I'm not posting the entire thing. I can if requested.
On the server where the DTS packages fail, regular IS packages that contain no DTS legacy tasks run successfully, and the only difference between the machines that work and don't work is SQL Server 2000 is not and was never installed, whereas the machines that work are running 2000 and 2005. The servers where the tasks fail version 9.0.3050.
One thing I have noticed is that on the machines where DTS works there is an extra file in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSBinn called Microsoft.SqlServer.Exec80PackageUtil.dll. Copying the file to a non-working server did not solve the issue. I tried installing the backwards compatibility update but it said that a newer version was already installed.
If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it. If you need more information just ask and I would be happy to provide it.
I cannot log in to SQL Server 2005 Dev Edition in my local machine using Windows Authentication. The server returned "Login failed..." when connecting with SQL Server Management Studio.
I have not change anything since installation of this server.
This problem happens in RTM and SP1 versions, both running on Windows Vista RTM.
Anyone having this kind of problem too? Any solution? I'm guessing it's Vista-related.
If I install an instance with Windows Only authentication, and then change it to Mixed Mode, if I enable the sa login, the password has already been set. What is the default? If it's generated, how secure is it? Is the password generated? What algorithm is used for that?
My sql databases in SQL Server 2014 has the status "suspend" as I saw in SQL Management Studio. I can't restore to serviceable condition sql databases through standard procedures. I need to restore .mdf file.
I am using a monitoring system where I can monitor a numeric SQL result assuming the result is one field and one row.I would like to do this to say monitor the free available space or percentage on say the Master database. DBCC SQLPERF gives me a few columns and results for all databases on the server.
In our environment applications are using a DNS name which points to the physical server ip address. Now we are planning to move to 2014. We are planning to have servers in different subnets so we will be having two ip adresses for listener. How we can point the DNS to the listener ips? If failover happens can the DNS point to the exact ip address of the listener where it's primary node?
"Process 0:0:0 (0x1e10) Worker 0x00000006B6D341A0 appears to be non-yielding on Scheduler 13. Thread creation time: 12906028806348. Approx Thread CPU Used: kernel 0 ms, user 0 ms. Process Utilization 13%. System Idle 84%. Interval: 70189 ms."
Is it better to run the profiler or performan counter?
What are the filters we have to select in the profiler to monitor the Sql server
I have a SQL server box running 2014 reporting services. I have another server running IIS v8.
I would like to be able to connect to the IIS site and be given the SSRS report browser.
So externally if I browse to [URL], I am presented with the report server interface, the same as if I browse to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/reports internally.
What is the best approach for a read only copy of a database that is ~ 1TB. The primary database is fed nightly with an ETL process. We are currently trying to duplicate the ETL to read only server but that process is not going well. So we are looking at other options to let SQL make the copy.
The primary database is on a Win12R2 with SQL 12 or 14, a 2 node A/P failover cluster.
The read only copy will be on a Win12R2 with SQL 12 or 14. It is not a requirement to fail over to the read only copy if the primary should go down.
What would best the approach to accomplish the end result?
I have 10 databases which are configured as principal in mirroring I need to failover all the databases as part of failover , instead of writing query each database as parner failover, is an script which will generate the databases as principal to failover ?
After installing SSMS on some computers - the only way we can get SSMS to run correctly is to run it as the administrator. Is there a way where you don't have to do that? These end users are logging as themselves and have accounts in SQL Server all set up - but SSMS will only launch for them if we right click and select "run as administrator".After doing some digging - it seems that this is a common problem out there.
Have a SQL 2014 install and cannot for the life of me get the maintenance plan to remove old backups. I've tried everything. Rights to the folder where the backups are stored are adequate, extension set in the clean up task is as it should be, etc. Log shows the job ran successfully. Running the command manually shows successful completion, but backups are still not removed.
when execute the restore log command, in the messages window it shows how many seconds the restore takes, at the meantime, on the status bar, it also shows the seconds the command takes.
Two values are different and could be very different, please see below examples , restoring takes 1.8 seconds, but in total the command takes 4 seconds to complete, the other one is 8.1 seconds and 12 seconds.
What does SQL Server or Windows do after the restoring?
pic a:
pic b:
I did a xperf, I can see after the restoring is completed, sql server did garbage collect and log write, which just run very quickly, but storage is busy on reading the log file for nearly 2.2 seconds( 4-1.8), and 4 seconds ( 12-8.1) .
pic 1:
pic 2:
see pic 1 above, from 13 to 17, the restore operation is finished, but the storage jump to 100% active to do some reads, only reads no writes. zoom that period shows pic 2, it read 4096 (I don't know the unit size) for about 4 seconds, what does this do?
Data file, log file, backup file are no different drives, but all local drive, the interesting point is the read jumped after restoring, I tested it on different server, same result...
I've got an old version of SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer Edition on an old PC which is failing. I've got a new PC and have put SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition onto it. Now before the old machine completely dies, I've gotten into SSMS on the old machine and did a backup of the databases I want to save. I've moved the .BAK files to where I could get to them from SSMS on the new machine. I've gotten into SSMS and tried to do a restore the database to my new machine. However I'm getting an error that does not make any sense to me.
The database I'm I've backed up is named JobSearch. When I backed it up, that was the only database I had selected. Like I said I copied the .BAK to the new machine. Got into SSMS, told it that I wanted to restore the JobSearch database, telling it where I wanted to put it, and it then immediately fails with a:
"Restore of database 'JobSearch' failed. System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Logical file 'VideoLibrary_Data' is not part of the database 'JobSearch'. Use RESTORE FILEISTONLY to list the logical file names."
Well of course VideoLibrary isn't "the logical file". But neither did I select VideoLibrary (which is a database I also want to move, but I'm doing one at a time). So what in heck is going on here? Why is it complaining about a database I haven't even selected to back up? Why, when I check everything on the old machine, it's backing up JobSearch, but on the new machine it sees VideoLibrary?
