I'm looing for advice on how to organize my SSIS packages. I'll quickly describe my requiremenst, and then outline how I see the solution.
1. Should work for development in BI Studio. Design time experience should be good, so static schema information should be available in all steps. Packages should run in debug mode inside BI Studio. 2. Should be able to run automated tests (which I gather is difficult. See proposed solution below). Tests should run both on a test machine, in batch mode, and from BI Studio. 3. Should work for deployment.
The packages should be fine-grained. Automated tests will be implemented as SSIS packages that call the packages to be tested via an Execute Package Task. There will be one test package per testcase. A test will look like: [Create Schema] -> [Load test data]->[Execute Package to be tested]->[Verify expected results]->[Teardown].
There will be one master test package that executes all the tests.
For this I need a) some way to vary the connections for the packages depending on whether they are run from a testcase or from the normal control flow. I'm considering making the connection strings configurations based on a parent package variable. Other configuration types strike me as not suitable since developers will want to run packages both as part of normal flow and as testcases on their machines. Is this a viable strategy? Any drawbacks?
b) need to organize testcases some way. I tried putting tests in a subfolder of the project to minimize the clutter, but BI studio shows them at the root node. I tried putting a new project (for containing the tests) in the same folder, and adding the packages (via add existing item), but BI Studio insists of adding copies (!) of the package files, rather than reusing the existing files. Any suggestions?
I welcome any feedback, suggestions of alternate strategies, etc.
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.
I'm trying to install SQL Server Management studio 2012 on my Windows 7 (x64) standalone laptop. When I click "New SQL stand-alone installation..." it runs a Setup Support Rules check and always fails "Setup Account Privileges". I've looked into the error and I keep getting that I need to change security rules but I don't have that option in window 7. How do I get around this without having to resort to a computer running Windows Server?
I have Visual Studio 2013 premium installed along with Localdb v11. I just want to connect and manage my database engine through SSMS when developing any application.
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.
I start upgrade 6.5-7.0 via Named Pipes from one server to another . Overall size of my databases is 20 GB . I restrict Tempdb size on target server 7.0 upto 1GB - data and 1GB - log ( I wonna use that in future )and failed upgrade procedure (after 2 hours ) with errors in SQLlog such as : "1105 - tmpdb syslog full" . Is there any recomendations about Tempdb size in upgrade process !
I am getting the error: "Cannot connect to WMI provider.

Is there way to completely re-install the Configuration Manager? One post suggested the Access denied was Administrator rights but I have full Administrative rights to everything so I don't see that being the problem.
So, I just downloaded and installed Windows 8 and SQL Server 2014 Developer. I used to have Visual Studio, that seems to be gone now. Can't find it. I can't figure out a way to get to SSIS or SSAS.
I noticed accidentally today on my PATH and discovered that I have several variables for different sql versions. I can understand this as I have upgraded from 2008, to 2012 then 2014. Here are the list of variables

I'm trying to do a SQL 2008 cluster installation.I installed one node and now I'm trying to add a failover cluster node.in the "add Node Rules" I get following message:
Rule Check Result...Rule "SQL Server Database Services feature state" failed.The SQL Server Database Services feature failed when it was initially installed. The feature must be removed before the current scenario can proceed.
If I close SSMS, it restarts itself as if it crashed and trying to restore itself. Even if I hit cancel as it's restarting, it will restart itself yet again. This happens twice. what's causing this?
I am getting this error "Index was outside the bounds of the array. (Microsoft.SQLServer.Smo)"..I have downloaded a hotfix, but when I tried running the patch, I was told the expected version is 10.2.4000.0, I am running 10.0.1600.22.I can not locate the correct patch for my version.

I installed a default SQL Server 2012 instance on Windows Server 2012.I enabled the SQL Browser and changed the TCP port of the instance to 1435. I changed port 1433 to 1435 I was able to connect to the instance using SSMS on another server. Now I have to enter Servername,1435 to make a connection.Why does the SQL Browser not resolve the servername to the right IP address and port 1435? Why am I not able to make a connection when I enter the servername or <servername>MSSQLSERVER? Is a SQL Browser only resolving named instances?This works fine for a named instance. Is there something special about default instances or the SQL Browser?
when i open my computer and want to use SQL SERVER and when iam connecting it this error will occur "A network related or instance specific Error in SQL SERVER 2012" Then aim going to Services and Find SQLSERVER and start the services and it will connect..My Question is that why every time iam going to Start the services..I want to connect Automatically when i click on connect button in sql server its very rediculous to go evrytime in Services. i update my window 8.1 to windows 10 before it will connect automatically no need to go in services to start the SQLSERVER.
i setup a 2 node sql cluster but 1433 is not listening. I check sql configuration manager and entered 1433 for all ip addresses restarted services but still not 1433
For some reason i am not able to make remote connections from VS 2013 to my current installation of SQL server 2008 so i thought to uninstall it and install another edition i got from MSDN but i the uninstall process keeps failing saying theres a known compatibility issues with 2008 and 2008 R2. it also gave me the option to seek solution online but when i click on it it is unable to get a solution online and i am never able to uninstall it. i need to get SQL server up and running.
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2008 on a virtual machine with Windows 2008 R2. Setup fails with the error "Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation". Looking at the installation log, I see these details:
I'm trying to upgrade an existing installation of SSE 2005 to SSE 2005 with Advanced Services SP1 so I can take advantage of Reporting Services. I'm installing on a box that has XP Pro SP2 installed. As prompted by the SSE setup, I had to install IIS. After installing IIS, the setup went along okay until it came time to configure the report server. I chose the default (configure with the default configuration) and I get the following error message:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Setup ------------------------------
SQL Server Setup failed to obtain system account information for the ASPNET account. To proceed, reinstall the .NET Framework, and then run SQL Server Setup again.

Anybody know what is causing the error and how to fix it? I tried the above link and it didn't provide any helpful information. Do I really need to reinstall the .Net Framework (I'm hoping not)? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
