SSIS Server Architecture/Setup Question
Feb 12, 2008
Hi, I am planning on having an SSIS dedicated server in a new install of SQL 2005. We will be using MSDB to store the packages. But I have a question.
Since we will be using MSDB to store the packages, how should the setup be? Should SQL also be installed on the SSIS server? Or can we use the SQL server (seperated dedicated server) to store the files?
Since SQL Agent is installed with SQL Server, can we use our SQL Server to schedule the packages? Or if using the SQL Server to schedule the packages make the packages run on that server (instead of the SSIS server)?
Basically I am confused on what needs to be installed on the SSIS server (since we will be using MSDB storage) and where the packages should be scheduled (if scheduled on SQL but SSIS is installed on a different server, where will it process??).
Thanks.

I work in my organization's warehouse team and we are rearchitecting our hardware. One of the ideas on the table is to devote a server to running ETL. There would be several beefy database servers, and a separate server that would run the ETL (SSIS). I'm wondering if that actually hinders the process.
The DB servers will still do all of the query processing, so that isn't off loaded to the ETL server. Then the recordsets I think would need to go over the network to the ETL server for the SSIS packages to work on. And then another trip over the network back to their destination. Would it be better to place the ETL process on either the source or destination DB server? What could be gained by using hardware in this way as described here?
Thanks.

Hi,
My name is Vinh, I am a new bee in SQL Server 2005. I am using template script (see below) from SQL Server to create account but when I am right click in database mail for testing email and I got the message, could not connect to mail server.
Below I am trying to use smtp to connect but I know in my company we are using Exchange Mail Server. will that make a lot different?
Please help me,

I would like to know best practices for setting up my environment. To date, I've had everything running on a single server. That would include the database engine, SSIS, SSAS and SSRS. The box configuration is dual hyperthreaded 3.6GHz Xenon with 4GB of RAM on Windows Server 2003. I just received a much larger server and want to configure it to maximize our environment. The new box contains four 2.6GHz Quad Core processors with 16GB of RAM. I would like to know if I should split the ETL and database engine from SSAS and SSRS, or should this box have enough horse power to house it all and use my other box as a dev environment. Also, we are planning to purchase Performance Point 2007 primarily for PAS and Scorecard Manager so please take that into consideration as well. Any comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I am replacing the corporate SQL Server at work. The new server will have 6 striped disks of 160G with about 4G of RAM. The current SQL Server currently has two instances which run web applications and a small database warehouse about 6G. Analysis Services is also installed.
Due to a couple of new apps being added to the server and the SQL Server 2000 enterprise license we acquired, i was thinking of adding 2 more instances so that the applications can be independently managed in terms of restarting the SQL Server. I also would like to permanently fix the memory settings on each instance to give more resources to more important applications. The log and data files would also be spilt onto 2 separate hard disks. i understand there are implications on performance such as CPU etc. Is it normally advisable to have more than 1 or 2 instances ? Most of the applications are not very CPU intensive. What other implications or performance issues would l have ?

We are designing a SQL Server architecture that will need to handle a lot of inserts and many users.
We are not sure what approach to take if we should build a distributed server architecture with a Single Master SQL and many Slave SQL Servers.
Or if we should get a really powerful machine with many processers to handle all the connections.
We project we will have about 5,000 Inserts per sec coming from 500,000 users.
What do you think or what has your previous experience been with handling many inserts and few reads for many users?
Thank you

Thank you in advance for any advice that is provided from by the Dev Shed Users.
I'm on a development team that has been having an ongoing discussion/argument about the best way to handle our users needs while in Europe.
We are developing a Purchase Order application in VB.net using MSSQL Server 2000. We have about 5 out of 10 users that take a six-week trip to Europe. While in Europe the users will need to use the application. However, there are some cities they visit where the network connection will be slim to none.
The ongoing argument is as follows:
-Should we create a server running SQL Server 2000 for them to take Europe and sync up the two databases when they return?
-Should we create a version of the application running MS Access?
-Should we create a version of the application running MySQL?
-Should we do something completely different that we haven't thought of?
-Also, I'm not sure if the following is a possible architecture, from what I've found online I haven't seen an architecture that runs both SQL Server and Access (hope this makes sense):
Build the VB.net application running a shell of the database in Access (locally) that temporarily houses the data and tracks the database transactions made while using the system. Then upon closing the application a ?module? would execute that would perform the transactions made by the user on SQL Server. Then we could dump the SQL Server Database to an Access database before they go to Europe, and run their changes on the SQL Server Database when they return. Users at home will not be making changes to the same data as those in Europe.
Again any help would be greatly appreciated.

HiI joined a project where 100,000 rows were added everyday. Now due toadditional customers the expectation is 2 million reocrds/day ie 10 GB worthof textfiles. We have to estimate the hard disk, memory, # of CPUs etc.Wewill have one yearworth of data in the db. Rest will be in tapes etc.We will be using WIN2000, SQL Server2000.- Any comparable server sizing willbe appreciated.1. Tohandle every day load, I thought that we will have a table for each day(pre created in the database )and have a view with union all selectingfromall these 365 tables. (This is the only way to partition in MSSQL Serverright?).2. The requirement is to populate datawarehouse tables with all the data.However there will be only inserts mostly but there can be updates too whichhappenned in the past 12 days.Hence we have to use the data from the last12 days and massage it etc and populate into datawarehouse tables.How can I do this so that I will have the datawarehouse tables with n-12days of data and I will alwys add the last 12 days data to it.Do you have any suggestions?Ragu

I am running a number of SQL instances on my PC. Within the network, I have think server with various System Center components. For compatibility reasons, some features of System Center 2012 R2 had to be delegated to different SQL databases. My question is, because there is now more than one IP address on my system, and each instance of SQL is assigned to its own IP, is there a way to setup DNS and SQL so the namespace points to the desired IP address? For Instance:
MSSQL2008 instance is set to run on = 11.12.13.1
MSSQL2012 is set to run on = 11.12.13.2
IN DNS:
A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.1
A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.2
If I want to use MSSQL2008 by specifying Mike-PC as the DNS name, how would I do that with 100% accuracy? If there is another way to get the job done, I am more than willing to approach this differently.

Is there any use of creating an SSIS Setup project? Since the Package Installation Wizard already does a good job of it?
Which brings up a question - why dont SSIS Packages compile to a dll just like any other .NET project? It seems interpreted from the .dtsx file except for the Script Tasks of Components which are pre-compiled.
Why did MS change the design language all of a sudden?
But please answer - is there any use of creating an SSIS Setup project?

Hi All,
This may be a question for multiple forums but here it goes.
I have a large SSIS package that works great in Visula Studio (BIDS) and in SQL Server under MSDB folder. The properties are all set to save with a sql server authentication package password and that works great too. The problem occurs when I try to use this package in a schedule. I get an error about an OLB DB not working. I've tried many things and figured out that all the OLB DBs do not work in this package but only error as a STEP in a schedule.
They all reference a Client Access ODBC connection - which is a connection to an AS400 IBM machine. The actual error is pasted below, where I guess the root of the problem is a incorrect password. The password is fine and I have proven that by running the package successfully under the MSDB folder of Stored Packages under Integration Service.

I would like to setup SSIS project so that multiple developers can work on same project. I am having issues with protectionlevel properties while another developer opens the package created by other developer.
Can anyone guide me on setting up project so that multiple developers could open the package and run (not simaltaneously though). Also tips on setting up source safe or team foundation will be appreciated!
Thanks

I need to deploy some SSIS packages onto a remote Integration Server machine. Hence
I wrote a VS 2005 Setup with Custom Action (C# Installer class) which uses the
SSIS DTSX Dlls to deploy the Packages onto an Integration Server. I am shipping
all the necessary DLLs in the MSI itself, so that the MSI can run on any client
machine having just .NET 2.0 Framework installed.
When I run the Setup on a Machine having Integration Server, the Setup works
fine and the Packages are deployed.
However, if I try to run the MSI on a machine which just has the .NET 2.0
Framework installed, I get the following error.
SqlServer.DTS.Runtime.Application could not be created. Retrieving the COM
class factory for component with CLSID
{E44847F1-FD8C-4251-B5DA-B04BB22E236E} failed due to the following error.
80040154
I am not sure whether any of the DLLS are COM components. I believe all are
Managed DLLs.I believe SSIS 2005 looks like a pre-requisite but I don't need that.
Please help. I am posting this query here, as I believe ppl writing SSIS Packages may have faced this issue.

We will be creating a moderately high-volume OLTP database application that needs 24/7 availability. We are planning to offload OLAP processing to a second copy of the system. We will be using SQL Server 2005.
I originally planned to set the second server up with SQL Server 2005 mirroring to cover the 24/7 availability requirement, with the idea that we could also do OLAP reporting off of the mirrored copy of the database. But I've gotten some indications that a mirror database is offline and not available for querying. So I figured I would use transactional replication to keep the OLAP database current. Now I am wondering if I need to use mirroring at all, or if I should just use transactional replication on the entire database and swap to the replicated database if the production server crashes.
What is everyone's opinion?
Replication only, for both OLAP reporting and failover?
Mirroring to one database for failover, with replication to a another database for OLAP reporting?

Hi there,
My question is more "architectural" than technical.
One of our standard is to systematically enclose the code of our stored proc within a TRY/CATCH block.
What is your point of view?
Should a TRY/CATCH be included even for simple operations?
Are there any drawbacks?
Thanks!
EDIT: Thanks for your input.

I've implemented a solution with application, database and report server on seperate machines. The application is a web app and is Internet facing. What is the best method for executing reports on the RS server that are initiated from the web server? Using URL access requires a login or anonymous access neither of which are desired. Web services works but I loose access to the toolbar. Is there some other way to pull this off where I can let the public access reports and give them access to the toolbar?
Thanks.

In a situation where one may have a single master SQL Server that ultimately needs to communicate information back down to 1000's of downstream servers, what is the recommended architectural approach?
It doesn't feel right to have to add 1K-5K routes to the master SQL Server. Is there a way to have the dowstream servers "broadcast" their existence to the master, so that new servers can be added and updates can happen seamlessly? Does this fall into a pub-sub scenario or is there a better way? And, if so, how to ensure an open conversation (so that one server doesn't miss information that all the other servers received)? Should the master dynamically create routes or better to rely on an open conversation initiated by the downstream server?

I have XP Pro SP2 with MDAC 2.8.1022. It had a problem so I tried to reinstall MDAC and got a Fatal Setup Error. This setup does not support installing on this operating system. I downloaded MDAC 2.8 1177 and get the same error.
I thought of uninstalling/reinstalling SP2, but this is a 2 month old Dell Latitude 610 with factory installed XP. There is no Windows Service Pack 2 option listed in the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
There's some other strange things, so I wonder if they are related.
1) I have Paul set up as an administrator account. Some folders like MSSQL show that account with no permissions. I grant all the permissions to Paul for that folder. I come back later and the permissions are gone.
2) I deleted 20 files in Explorer, but 7 of them did not go away. I deleted those 7 again and they instatnly reappeared. I deleted those 7 again and then they finally went away.
3) I get a slow reaction time for things like Windows Explorer and opening and closing programs. This is suprising since it has 2 gig of RAM and 2.3 Gig processor. Could it be a memory handling problem that's causing OS problems. Probably, the memory didn't handle the OS installation well and the whole system is compromised now.

We're doing upgrades from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014. This is blocked due to RS is installed but not configured. Our desired action is to uninstall RS and proceed with the upgrade. But when setuparp.exe is raised, it does not list all the features on the 'Select Features' page. In fact, it only lists the last 2 shared features (SQ Client Connectivity SDK and Microsoft Sync Framework). However, all items appear to be listed on the 'Select Instance' page including RS. I've seen this issue on 2 of our SQL 2008 R2 Servers already.
