Cloning A PC With SQL Server 2005

Apr 14, 2008

Guys!!

How are you all? Im new to this forum as you can probably tell. I have joined up because i need advice in a matter and this seems like the best pace on the net for SQL Server help. Let me outline first what im trying to do;

Im part of a large company of roughly 5000 or so desktops and 3000 or so laptops. We currently have a project under way where we inted to build 50 or so identical laptops that will be used for testing mechanical equipment. Now the team involved have designed there own program that will connect to a main server in Head Office and transfer over the updated SQL server databases on the latop. every couple of days after doing tests, this tests - stored in a SQL DB - will be synced with the server to prevent loss of data.

Now my queston, is it possible to Clone an operating system with the following apps already installed;
SQL Server 2005
SQL Server Nature Client
SQL Server Setup Files
SQL Server Vss Writer

I made an inital clone, but when i went into the user groups, i found SQL server users with a PC name of the inital 'base build' PC. It seems these accounts cannot be copied from one machine to another.

Will the SQL database still run fine, or will there be big problems when copnnecting the the Server in Head Office?

Would it be better to just install the SQL Server components after a new latop has been created?

Anyway any help at all would be great on this matter, cheers!!

SQL 6.5 And Disk Cloning

Mar 23, 1999

We need a drive cloning app, like Ghost, that will allow us to transfer a production image off of a HDD to other PCs. The problem with this is that
our production needs SQL in order to run and transferring the initial image to uniquely named workstations causes DB registration problems. Is there
an app that will allow us to configure this transferred image so that SQL will refer to the "new" drive instead in of the "old"?

CLONING SQL DATABASE

Tengo una aplicacion desarrollada en POWERBUILDER y accede a una base de Datos SQL, deseo utilizar la misma aplicacion para acceder a otra base de Datos SQL en el mismo servidor. La segunda Base de Datos tiene que ser inicialmente un clon del original para hacer pruebas con los mismos usuarios. A nivel de la aplicacion puedo solucionar cambiando los parametros de nombre de base de datos, pero como puedo hacer a nivel del servidor?.

Database Cloning

Nov 23, 2006

Using SQL Server 2005 Express.I need to periodically duplicate an entire database and rename it. Mosttables are empty but some are to be prepopulated. I was thinking of havinga "template" database called perhaps "EmptyDatabase", and then copy thatinto a freshly created database with a new name.Has anyone coded anything like this?Thanks.GS

CLONING PACKAGES

Apr 9, 2007

I loved the DTS feature that allowed saving DTS package as a VB model. With a bit of coding you could generate a number of packages from one template.

Are there any analogous solutions for SSIS? I cannot find anything.

My goal is simple. I have an ETL step that transfers data from staging dimension table to the corresponding star schema table in the subject matter database. I have two types of packages for SCD type 1 and type 2. Do you have any suggestions on how I can clone packages so that I don€™t have to go manually through each of them to replace certain items such as stored procedure names, etc.


Thank you!

Migrating (cloning?) DTS Mapping

Apr 17, 2007

I have a DTS package on SQL Server 2000 that loads a table from a text file daily. The text file has 148 distinct fields that are mapped to a corresponding 148 columns on the table. I need to recreate the package to SQL Server 2005. Is there any shortcut to replicating the mapping from DTS to SSIS or do I need to redo from the beginning?

Memory Configurations For SQL Server 2005 EE X64 With SQL Server 2000 EE X32 On Windows Server EE X64 Server

Apr 20, 2007

My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.

I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?

problems when running both 2000 and 2005 SQL Server at the same database server?
3. What is the best configuration for running SQL Server 2005 when we have old 2000 databases? Upgade or not upgrade?

TIA,

Can't Connect .Net Application From Windows Server 2003 To Database Server (SQL Server 2000)

Apr 3, 2008

Hi,
I am having a problem connecting my .net applications from the application server to the database server. When I run the application from my windows xp (sp2) box it works fine. When I try to connect via SQL Management Studio to the database server from the application server I get the same error.
Here is the error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.  When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
 Here is the Environment:
App Server:
Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
Inside Company's Firewall/ Network
Database Server:
Windows Server 2000 Advanced Edition
SQL Server 2000 SP4
Remote Connections to the Server is checked
Enable Protocols: Named Pipes & TCP/IP
TCP/IP Port: 1402 (I don't know why it isn't the default of 1433)
The db server is sitting out side the Company's firewall (don't ask me why). I can access it fine from inside the firewall on my XP box but not from windows server 2003. There is a web server outside the our network that also connects to the db server with no problem and that is running Windows Server 2003 Web Edition.
I can ping the db server from the app server using the IP address.
I tried using the IP address and the port 1402 in my connection string but that didn't work from any machine (XP and Server).
I imagine the issue is somehow related to the company's firewall but why would it only block Windows Server 2003 and not XP?
What do I tell the network admin to change?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Oran

SQL Server 2008 :: Restoring A Database / Server Using A Remote Server As The Service Call?

Jan 4, 2013

if you can restore a database to Server B using Server A as the service. Meaning we would issue the command on Server A but somehow point to Server B as where we want the restore to happen.

The backup file would be in a location independent of both servers.

Help! SQL Server Error - [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] Invalid Object Name ...

Jul 23, 2005

Dear all,On Win2000 server with SP3, I am trying to access a SQL Server 7.0database, "TestDB", from VB6 via a SQL Server ODBC system DSN using ADO2.7. In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, there is a login named "Tester".In its property window, NO "Server Roles" was assigned but its"Database Access" was set to "TestDB". This login was also made as theuser of "TestDB" with "public", "db_datareader" and "db_datawriter"selected as its "Database role membership". All the tables I am tryingto access in "TestDB" were created under "Tester".My code is like:Set conn = New ADODB.Connectionconn.Open "DSN=TestDSN;UID=Tester;PWD=test"Set cmd = New ADODB.Commandcmd.ActiveConnection = conncmd.CommandText = SQLset rs = cmd.Execute()If I set the SQL to something like "SELECT * FROM tbl_test", I alwaysget an error of "-2147217865" saying "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL ServerDriver][SQL Server] Invalid object name tbl_test". If I set the SQL to"SELECT * FROM Tester.tbl_test", everything runs properly. Could anyoneplease kindly advise why the first SQL is not working? Or in otherwords, why must I prefix the table name with its owner while the DBconnection is already made under that owner name? Thanks in advance.Tracy

Problem Occurs When Migrating A SQL Server 2000 Database To A SQL Server 2005 Server

Sep 20, 2006

When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem;

Performing operation...

- Add log for package (Success)
- Add task for transferring database objects (Success)
- Create package (Success)
- Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success)
- Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error)
Messages
* The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard)

When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed;

InnerException-->An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.
When connecting to SQL Server 2005,
this failure may be caused by the fact
that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

I already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ).

How do I solve this problem?

An Error Has Occurred While Establishing A Connection To The Server. When Connecting To SQL Server 2005, This Failure May Be Caused By The Fact That Under The Default Settings SQL Server Does Not Allow Remote Connections.

Jan 22, 2008

My site works fine in VWD2008 express, but I get this error when I try to use it on my live website.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. 
According to this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277  I am supposed to:




1.
Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
Ok, there is no such program in this folder.  The only thing in there is "SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting"...
 The other thing I am greatly concerned with is this:  All is want is for my webpages to be able to access my database for user authentication.  I DO NOT want to grant the internet rights to remote connect to my database.

SQL Server 2005 Installation Problems With SQL Server Express && SQL Server 2000

May 31, 2006

Hi Guys,
I have had SQL Server Express and Sql Server Management Studio Express installed on my machine for some time and recently tried to install a trial of SQL Server 2005 as well.  (Yes, I'm migrating from Visual Studio Express to Visual Studio Professional, just as in tended!)
Everything went fine except that nothing seemed to be installed.  I searched in all the obvious places - both on the Start/Programs menu and on the hard-drive: nothing.
A check under Add/Remove Programs showed that Sql Server 2005 Express was installed, but called SQL Server 2005.
So after a number of retries in which the install program kept saying that there was nothing to install, I selected every option under Advanced in the intall process.  This resulted in stuff being installed and I now have SQL Server 2005 running on my machine, but no SQL Server Manager icon.
My questions are:

Where can I find the SQL Server Manager executeable?
Has anyone installed SQL Server Express, SQL Server Mangement Studio Express, SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Management Studio on a single machine successfully?  If so, what order did you install them in?  (I'm planning on uninstalling everything SXQL Server related and starting again.)
Thanks very much for your help.
Regards
Gary

Problem Accessing A SQL Server 2000 Linked Server From SQL Server 2005

May 4, 2007

Hi
I have created a linked server from SQL Server 2005 (SP 1) to SQL Service 2000 (SP 4) with a sql server login that is available on both servers but with different passwords and permissions.



I am getting the following error while accessing the linked server in management studio based on the scenario given below ;



------ Error Message Starts
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "(SQL Server 2000 instance name)" returned message "Communication link failure".
Msg 10054, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 0
Login failed for user 'abc'.
------ Error Message Ends


Consider login name is abc.
Now this login abc has sysadmin rights on sql server 2005.
The same login abc has only db_datareader rights on sql server 2000 on just one database and is not associated with any fixed server role.

I have configured the linked server using the following options;
1. I have tried impersonating login from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 .
2. I have also tried specifying remote login / password option.


Anyone having any idea, would be of great help.
Regards,
Salman Shehbaz.

Server SQL-Server 2005 Crash While Indexing By The Server SharePoint 2007

Feb 7, 2008

Hello,


I have an intranet environment consists of two servers:

- An application server windows 2003 server with 64-bit server Sharepoint 2007 SP1 (Standard version for search)
- A database server windows 2003 server with 64-bit SQL Server 2005 SP2 64-bit (Standard - 9.0.3054)


It happens regularly that the database server crash (frozen black screen) while the application server indexes (crawl) the content of the intranet site based on sharepoint. There is no alert / error in the observer of events, nor in the sql logs.


The crash is uncertain: dice once all goes well, soon after that crash. When i set the parameter search service (service management research), I can define a regulatory impact of the robot to change the number of documents at the same time : "Request 2 documents at the same time, the crash is more rare, "ask 64 documents at a time, the crash is more common.


My Intranet under sharepoint is composed of a collection site with a dozen sub-sites. There are 3 large library of PDF document. All done in the 4 go in terms of volume.


My problem for about 3-4 months. (Maybe more. Before, indexing was not yet in place).

Someone could help me? Thank you

Instructions For Setting Up A Sybase ASE Server As A SQL Server 2005 Linked Server?

Dec 28, 2005

I have a Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise server which I need to set up as a linked server in SQL Server 2005.  The Sybase server is version 12.5.2, and the Sybase ODBC driver version is 4.20.00.67.  I have already installed the Sybase client software on the server.


I also created a SystemDSN on the SQL Server to connect to the Sybase server.  I tested the connection and it was able to connect.

I ran the following code to create the linked server:

<code>

EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N'LinkedServerName', @srvproduct=N'Sybase', @provider=N'MSDASQL', @datasrc=N'Sybase System DSN', @provstr=N'"Provider=Sybase.ASEOLEDBProvider;Server Name=servername,5000;Initial Catalog=databasename;User Id=username;Password=password"'

</code>

I then ran sp_tables_ex to make sure I could view the tables in the Sybase database.  Here is the error message I get:

<code>

OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "LinkedServerName" returned message "[DataDirect][ODBC Sybase Wire Protocol driver]Error parsing connect string at offset 13. ".

Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_tables_ex, Line 41

Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "LinkedServerName".

</code>

Any ideas what is happening here?
