I and my backup admin have full server, database, and SRS admin rights. We both have several subscription reports active. I need to temporarily disable all subscriptions for today. Of course, I can see my subscriptions, get into them, and stop them. However, from SQL Server Management Studio / Reporting Services, I can see her subscriptions but can not find a way to disable them.
Any ideas?
Is there a way to temporarily disable replication? My problem is that I have pull subscribers that I do not want accessing the database at certain times, so that data updates and backups can occur. Is there a way to make that happen?

I'm trying to create a subscription to automatically generate a report daily and put a resulting pdf into a folder on the drive. Users will then receive an email notification with a link to the report so they can just click on it and see the report.
When creating the subscription, I am prompted for a set of "credentials used to access the file share" (user name and password). But I don't want my users to have to supply any credentials, I just want them to click on the link and get the report. Is there a way to disable the requirement for the credentials?
Thank you.
Greetings,
We periodically get the following message in our three server peer-to-peer transactional replication environment:
"One or more subscriptions have been marked inactive. Drop and re-create all subscriptions for this node that are failing with this error."
What causes a subscription to be marked inactive? What properties or settings can be adjusted to minimize or eliminate this occurrence?
Everthing seems to be running OK and then we get the message. It afflicts the higest change volume publication on our slowest overseas server.
Thanks,

I doubt this is possible, but can someone think of a way to change the email address used for sending report subscriptions based on the report or subscription?
It's a need that I've heard from a number of different clients. Scenario: a company has one reporting services server with reports running from numerous departments. Report subscriptions are sent to internal and external email addresses and there's a business need to use different "from" addresses based on the report (or audience).
Assuming that I have created relationships (PKs and FKs) on my tables already, does the following statement permanently remove a Foreign Key constraint, or does it mearly disable it?ALTER TABLE myTable NOCHECK CONSTRAINT FK_myForeignKeyGO Also, I can't seem to find out how to temporarily remove the Identity qualifier of a field, and then reset it back as Identity later. Any help?Finally, will a failure of ALTER TABLE affect the @@ERROR variable? Can I check @@ERROR after each ALTER TABLE table statement to see if @@ERROR <> 0?The reason for both of these issues is that I am redesigning an unnormalized database, and I need to write a large script to drop all constraints on all tables, transform the data as normalized into the new table structure, and then re-enable constraints, Identity fields, etc. Thanks.

Is there a way to temporarily disable logging into the transaction log.
In our system, we perform purging of our database every night, where the purging consists of 2 steps:
1. For each table, insert the data, to be deleted, into a corresponding "purged" table, to remain there for one day only.
2. For each table, delete the unnecessary data (i.e. same data stored in purged tables in step 1)
During these 2 steps, the transaction log grows, and since we perform the transactional log back up, the back up at that time is huge. We are running a bit low on the hard disk space and I'd like to disable logging into the transaction log when these operations are performed.
I really don't care about being able to recover this data.
I thought that one option is to set the database to simple recovery, then perform the purging of the database, and then change back to full.
However, I think that trans log can grow even if recovery model is simple [although you won't be able to retrieve any changes].
So, is there a way to delete a portion of a table [or insert into it] so that no data is written to a transaction log (I know that we can use TRUNCATE if we need to remove whole table without logging)?
Thanks a lot
I am looking for "substitution variables to temporarily store value" with sqlcmd in sql server . I know the query in oracle, but looking for equivalent query in sql server?
In oracle query is like this:
select *
from tablename
where deptnumber = &department_number;
Enter Value for department_number
I am looking this query in sql serevr2008.
I have synchronous mirroring. Some times I loose connection to witness and mirror servers. These times primary server is down. Is there any way I can change mirroring to asynchronous when primary server is down due to communication break down between witness and mirrored servers? I can break mirroring but to re-establish mirroring, I have to backup and restore on the other side. So if I can change mirroring to asynchronous when primary server is down due to connection breakdown between witness and mirrored server, then when witness and mirror servers come back, I don't need to restore the entire database. Ofcourse I could use asynchronous always but that does not failover automatically. I am thankful to all answers and suggestions. Thanks.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am doing a data conversion in which I drop constraints before inserting data and then reapply at the end. I would like to also drop the not null constraints for certain columns, transfer the nulls and then fill them in later before reapplying the constraints. Is there a relatively simple way to drop and reapply the not null constraints?

Poor Performance Temporarily Cured by Re-booting SQL Server
Please can you help?
SQL Server 2000.
Accessed by VB.Net 2003.
Server set up by SQL consultant (who is no longer available).
We have a regular problem, which is most noticeable when analysing data (rather than data inserts/deletions) for producing xml or csv files or reports, even though the amount of data is relatively small. However structure of database means that there are still quite a lot of records and a lot of links between tables (database is currently being redesigned but in the mean time the problem still exists).
The problem is that access slows down dramatically and in some cases all but stops (one example is a csv file being produced where only a few lines have been output in 30 minutes). In every case the symptoms can be solved by re-booting the SQL server, after which the entire csv file is output in 10 minutes. Obviously though we wish to solve the problem and not just the symptom.
Additional information:
Transaction logs are backed up at 13:00 and in the evening (both periods of very low usage).Full backup is run in the evening and at 13:00 (both periods of very low usage), with integrity check performed prior to full backup. Database is optimized after the full backup including shrinking the database leaving 15% of the data space free.
I am testing Insert, Update etc. and messing up my database with "dirty" data. Is there a way to temporarily drop FOREIGN KEY constraints to truncate a table after testing without dropping the whole table and rebuilding it?

I need to run a script in production that adds primary key to a table. Because table is large, I can't run it in one shot, the log file is not so large to accommodate it. Instead, I created a new table with same structure plus new surrogate primary key, and I populate it in a cursor loop.
I already ran it many times in test server, and no problems with that. But the problem will be in production when applications will be accessing this table and try to insert/update it while I am running my loop.
So I am looking for a solution how to block users to access this table, it's OK if they receive an error. Setting database to single user mode will not work because I don't want to block them from all the rest tables in this database.
I have transactional replication configured where the publisher and subscriber are on two different servers. Yesterday a database upgrade was carried out, and the DBA dropped replication by issuing sp_removedbreplication on the published database. The subscription is still set up.
I have two questions:
1 - What is the safest way to temporarily switch off replication without losing the publication or subscription? As far as I was aware (my replication knowledge isn't great), simply disabling the relevant agents would do the job.
2 - I now have the task of creating the publication again (fortunately we have a saved script). If I recreate this publication, will I be able to point the existing subscription at it?
How I can measure the volume of data created temporarily to replace usage of physical tables in an SQL query.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are running Reporting Services on an Application server, side by side with a web application. The server exists outside our corporate domain due to the fact that our external vendors need access to the application (not the reports). Our web app uses a third party mail system to funnel the application email thru our corporate exchange server. Since Reporting Services is not connected to our domain, it can not authenticate to send reports via e-mail subscriptions. I am looking for alternatives to make this work from outside the domain.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I have created data drvien subscriptions in Report Manager (rs 2005). When the reports are run in Report Manager they give a status ie 5 processed of 5 Total-2 errors. Is it possible to find out what these errors are as no indication is given?
Thanks in advance
We've got a lot of user subscriptions that need to be re-run (data was bad on the initial run). Is there anyway to do this programatically or behind the scenes? We're looking for a way to avoid going into each subscrption and re-running.
Thanks.
I am getting continuous errors in publisher/distributor server
Background: Transactional replication (Push) with one publication (above 30 articles (tables)) and 1 subscriber. Publisher/Distributor is 2008r2 SP2 & Subscriber is 2008r2 sp1
Current Problem:
Repl-Distribution
Message
Replication-Replication Distribution Subsystem: agent PubServername-Production-ProductionReplication-Subscriberservername scheduled for retry (One of the replication job). Query timeout expired.
When I open the replication monitor..In the first tab it is showing performance excellent but when I double click on the publiscation, it is showing errors under distributor to subscriber tab and there are some undistributed commands 5873507, estimated time to apply these commands, based on last performance is 1:06:05:05
Question 1: Do I need to reinitialize the subscriptions? How to find out the problem what went wrong with replication
Question 2: If I want to do any schema changes @publisher do I need to stop the log reader agent and start after the deployment? In my case both publisher/distributor are on the same server (Transactional Replication)

Hi,
I have generated a report and uploaded that report to reporting services. It works fine. I have created a subscription for the same report and scheduled the job to run the report. The report is not running.
I have tried the same report in different server and it works there.
I have sql server 2000 and sql server 2005 installed in the same server. I am using sql server 2000 reporting services but 2005 database. Will that creates a problem?
Can anyone please help me in this.

Per BOL, I can assign the following task to a role, and if I give role to SSRS user, they can see ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS. If so, WHERE do they see the ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS? Will they show when selecting MY SUBSCRIPTIONS, or some other way?
{{Manage all subscriptions: View, modify, and delete any subscription regardless of who owns the subscription. }}
I am full rights admin on the box, and yet to find way to see ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS as well.
Hi,
I have a problem on Report Manager none of my subscriptions are triggered. They were working fine until Friday but none of them are fired today. I tested
writing to file share also but the subscription I created to write to file share was not fired. I checked with log files but could not find any errors regarding the subscriptions. Can you please help me on this?
Thanks in Advance.
At the moment, the only way (that I know of) to test a subscription seems to be to schedule it a few minutes ahead in time and wait for it to happen. Dies nayone know if there are plans for and "Execute" or "tTst" button? It would be nice to have one.

Help! After searching through the forums and the web in general, I cannot find a reference to this problem. On a new SBS 2003 R2 server, with a clean install of SQL Server and reporting services, I have reporting working fine except that the reports have no Subscriptions tab visible. Also when I go to "Site Settings" and "Manage Shared Schedules", I get an error:
"The feature: "Scheduled report execution" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services. (rsOperationNotSupported)
Interrogating the SQL Server, I find that the edition is reporting as Workgroup, which should have scheduled report execution.
Please help as this is a big problem for this server deployment.
Thanks

I am calling the CreateReportHistorySnapshot command to create my snapshot report of a linked report.

Hi There
I need to get rid of all subscriptions (including cleaning up all associated sql jobs) for RS 2000 and 2005.
We have hundreds of reports , going through them 1 by 1 is not an option.
When i look at the system tables, i join Subscription to Catalog, but i find reports with subscriptions in the system tables but when i go to Report Manger there is no subscription for the report.
In a nutshell , how can i see all valid subscription for all reports in RS, how can i delete all of them and make sur eall sql jobs associated etc are deleted.???
Thanx
Where in the backend database can I find who a subscription was sent to? I know in the report server database the subscripitons table has a description and last status field, but these fields are cutting names off when the list is large. Is there any other place where this information is stored?
