i need to run query that will run on two servers.
one is local (Server1), and one on 192.144.22.22 (Server2)
i try this:
  SELECT  *
  FROM   [Db1].[dbo].table1 A
  INNER JOIN [Server2].[Db1].[dbo].table2 BÂ
  ON A.Id = B.Id
but this work fine because the two database is on the local machine.
how to do it ?
I am trying to create a query that will get data from two diffrent SQL servers. I am trying to link the two servers by using the sp_addlinkedserver. This is the code I use:
USE master;
GO
EXEC sp_addlinkedserverÂ
  N'SC00SRVERP501R1',
  N'SQL Server';
GO
and it executes successfully. But when I try to run my query I get the error message "Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON'."As far as I understand I need to provide some credentials to the linked server, but how do I do that ?
I have a backup checking script on my server. I want to change the script to run on multiple servers, and below are my requirements,
1. I have an input file with my sql script which i want to run in command prompt and i have a list of servers in an another input file.
2. I need a script to take the input from the input file , process my sql script and produce an output for each servers.
3. Or can we use SSMS or some sql agent script to make it possible ?
I need to compare columns in tables on 1 database on one server versus the same on a 2nd server.
I'm looking for added columns in dbase 1.
Is there a system T-SQL script that can be used for this?
I am doing some administrative tasks and need to collect some principals information from multiple instances and user databases.
I have table "dbo.instances" with list of instances.Â
I have databases from "sys.databases".Â
How can I execute the query to get principals information from "sys.database_principals" on each remote instance and database. I know that can use cursor, but not sure how to do this with multiple servers and databases.
Is there a way to fetch database usage details for multiple SQL servers (report) usirng powershell script.
Details: servername, databasename, datafile usage, logfile usage, free % age...etc.
I'm new to SQL and I'm trying to write a stored procdeure in my current database that queries a different database on a different server. What is the best way to do this?
Thanks and sorry if it's too remedial a question.
Hi,
I am a newbie to SQL and learning as I go.
I am currently trying to write a SELECT that returns the difference between 2 identical tables in 2 different SQL databases on 2 different SQL servers.
I believe I have setup the linked servers properly.
Here is the select I wrote;
select *
from [dbnameA].dbo.Item
where not exists
(select * from [dbnameB].dbo.ItemSD
Where [dbnameA].dbo.Item.IMA_ItemID = [dbnameB].dbo.ItemSD.IMA_ItemID)
The error I receive is;
Server: Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid object name 'dbnameB.dbo.ItemSD'.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Michiel
i have two servers where i have logged in, hr and transport
i want to write a query in query analyser of the hr server to retrieve information in the transport server. how will i do it
i tried with
select * from servername.databasename.permission.tablename
i get a message
Server: Msg 7202, Level 11, State 2, Line 1
Could not find server 'transport' in sysservers. Execute sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sysservers.
For example I have 15 records in which accountID is a PK. AccountID 1,2,3,4,5 is linked on server1. I want to find out records that are not linked. So its record 6 - 15. Can someone show the stored procs for this scenario? Or the query statement to do this... Im new to linked servers. Thanks alot.

Hi, all -
I know you can execute stored procedures on remote servers in SQL Server 6.5, but can you run regular queries as well using the 4 part name qualification?
Example: select * from server1.database1.dbo.table1
If not, is there another way I can manipulate data on remoter servers?
Hi,
Please could I have some advice I am running a query on the live node of a cluster it takes well over an hour to run even at a quite ish time when CPU is bellow 50% memory disk queues all normal. But when I run it the other node it take less than a minute.
I know it would probably take longer on the live due to having users on but not that much longer, there is no blocking why is there such a huge differences.
Many thanks
Hello,
We have adedicated MS-SQL Server for our CRM database and we have another MS-SQL database server for in house applications, written in c#.Net 2.0. To avoid duplicating information already in our CRM database, it would be nice if we could build a query that combined columns from both data sources.Example
Code Snippet
CRM database on Server1
Table Accounts
Columns
AccountID UniqueIdentifier Primary Key
Name NvarChar(50)
Application Database on Server2
Table Transaction
Columns
TransactionID UniqueIdentifier Primary Key
AccountID UniqueIdentifier
Amount Money
Would it be possible to create a T-SQL statement that will select
Code Snippet
Select
Server1.CRM.Accounts.Name,
Server2.Application.Transaction.TransactionID,
Server2.Application.Transaction.AccountID,
Server2.Application.Transaction.Amount
From Server1.CRM.Accounts INNER JOIN Server2.Application.Transaction
ON (Server1.CRM.Accounts.AccountID = Server2.CRM.Transaction.AccountID)
I appreciate there will need to be 2 connections and therefore some credential information would need to be passed too.
Is anything like this possible? I do not wish to copy the Name field from Server1.CRM.Accounts to Server2..Application.Transaction as this is duplication and any change to the value of Server1.CRM.Accounts.Name would not be reflected in the results.
Many thanks for any information provided.
I have successfully connected to a sybase 11 database and have successfully run a couple of open query statements against this database, I have now placed this open query in a stored procedure and it works well, but when I want to pass parameter variables has part of my open query it does not like it. It asks me to declare the variable which is a parameter of the stored procedure. Is there any way I can pass in a variable value has part of my query

also tried EXEC sp_tables_ex 'dccs_danville'
tblload is able to be queried.
anyone know what is wrong?

Hi,
Im trying to access data from a database on another server in a SQL 2005 query.
use Bury2k29.ServiceDeskForms
select .......
but I get the message
could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'Burky2k29'. No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly.
Bury2k29 is the name of the server, and ServiceDeskForms is the database I want to access.
When I open a blank query and enter only the code to access that database it runs fine.
Any ideas?
For each customer, I want to add all of their telephone numbers to a different column. That is, multiple columns (depending on the number of telephone numbers) for each customer/row. How can I achieve that?
I want my output to be
CUSTOMER ID, FIRST NAME, LAST NAME, TEL1, TEL2, TEL3, ... etc
Each 'Tel' will relate to a one or more records in the PHONES table that is linked back to the customer.
I want to do it using SELECT. Is it possible?

I have a query that performs a comparison between 2 different databases and returns the results of the comparison. It returns 2 columns. The 1st column is the value of the object being compared, and the 2nd column is a number representing any discrepancies.What I would like to do is use the results from this 1st query in the where clause of another separate query so that this 2nd query will only run for any primary values from the 1st query where a secondary value in the 1st query is not equal to zero.I was thinking of using an "IN" function in the 2nd query to pull data from the 1st column in the 1st query where the 2nd column in the 1st query != 0, but I'm having trouble ironing out the correct syntax, and conceptualizing this optimally.
While I would prefer to only return values from the 1st query where the comparison value != 0 in order to have a concise list to work with, I am having difficulty in that the comparison value is a mathematical calculation of 2 different tables in 2 different databases, and so far I've been forced to include it in the select criteria because the where clause does not accept it.Also, I am not a DBA by trade. I am a system administrator writing SQL code for reporting data from an application I support.
I have a column colC in a table myTable that has a value (e.g. '0X'). The position of a non-zero character in column colC refers to the ordinal position of another column in the table myTable (in the aforementioned example, colB).
To get a column name (i.e., colA or colB) from table myTable, I can join ("ON cte.pos = cn.ORDINAL_POSITION") to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS for that table catalog, schema and name. But I want to show the value of what is in that column (e.g., 'ABC'), not just the name. Hoping for:
COLUMN_NAME Value
----------- -----
colB Â Â Â Â 123
colA Â Â Â Â XYZ
I've tried dynamic SQL to no success, probably not executing the concept correctly...
Below is what I have:
CREATE TABLE myTable (colA VARCHAR(3), colB VARCHAR(3), colC VARCHAR(3))
INSERT INTO myTable (colA, colB, colC) VALUES ('ABC', '123', '0X')
INSERT INTO myTable (colA, colB, colC) VALUES ('XYZ', '789', 'X0')
;WITH cte AS
(
SELECT CAST(PATINDEX('%[^0]%', colC) AS SMALLINT) pos, STUFF(colC, 1, PATINDEX('%[^0]%', colC), '') colC
[Code] ....
I am trying to optimize a stored procedure in SQL 2008. Â When I look at an actual execution plan generated from when I run it in SSMS it shows a table being used in the plan that has no relation to what is actually in the query script and this is where the biggest performance hit occurs.
I've never seen a table show up before that wasn't part of the query. why this might occur and how to correct it? Â I can't just change the query script because the table in question isn't there.
I can easily query multiple servers using the multi-server query function in Central Management Server and write some of the results to logging tables. I would like to be able to do this via a scheduled job. So far I am finding that even setting up Master/Target Servers this may not work and the only workaround is either using SSIS, SQLCMD (by basically hard coding the servername) and possibly Powershell.
tell me if they have been successful just using standard jobs and querying against multiple servers?
If I can't save the results to a 'central' database/table (I can do this when in SSMS), but can still query against multiple servers I was thinking I could write the results to a CSV file that a SSIS job picks up.
I have attempted using SSIS to iterate through servers and have been plagued with intermittent connection issues when using a For...Loop container.
Greetings,I have 3 servers all running SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.818. Lets callthem parent, child1, and child 2.On parent, I create a view called item as follows:CREATE view Item asselect * from child1.dbchild1.dbo.Item union allselect * from child2.DBChild2.dbo.ItemOn child1 and child2, I have a table "item" with a column named "id"datatype uniqueidentifier (and many other columns). There is anon-clustered index created over column "id".When I connect to the parent server and select from the viewSelect id, col1, col2, …. From item where id =‘280A33E0-5B61-4194-B242-0E184C46BB59'The query is distributed to the children "correctly" (meaning itexecutes entirely (including the where clause) on the children serverand one row is returned to the parent).However, when I select based on a list of idsSelect id, col1, col2, …. From item where id in(‘280A33E0-5B61-4194-B242-0E184C46BB59',‘376FA839-B48A-4599-BC67-25C6820FE105')the plan shows that the entire contents of both children item tables(millions of rows each) are pulled from the children to the parent,and THEN the where criteria is applied.Oddly enough, if I put the list of id's I want into a temp tableselect * from #bv1id------------------------------------280A33E0-5B61-4194-B242-0E184C46BB59376FA839-B48A-4599-BC67-25C6820FE105and thenSelect id, col1, col2, …. From item where id in (select * from #bv1)the query executes with the where criteria applied on the childrendatabases saving millions of rows being copied back to the parentserver.So, I have a hack that works (using the temp table) for this case, butI really don't understand the root cause. After reading online books,in a way I am confused why ANY of the processing is done on thechildren servers. I quote:================================================Remote Query ExecutionSQL Server attempts to delegate as much of the evaluation of adistributed query to the SQL Command Provider as possible. An SQLquery that accesses only the remote tables stored in the provider'sdata source is extracted from the original distributed query andexecuted against the provider. This reduces the number of rowsreturned from the provider and allows the provider to use its indexesin evaluating the query.Considerations that affect how much of the original distributed querygets delegated to the SQL Command Provider include:•The dialect level supported by the SQL Command ProviderSQL Server delegates operations only if they are supported by thespecific dialect level. The dialect levels from highest to lowest are:SQL Server, SQL-92 Entry level, ODBC core, and Jet. The higher thedialect level, the more operations SQL Server can delegate to theprovider.Note The SQL Server dialect level is used when the providercorresponds to a SQL Server linked server.Each dialect level is a superset of the lower levels. Therefore, if anoperation is delegated to a particular level, then Queries involvingthe following are never delegated to a provider and are always it isalso delegated to all higher levels.evaluated locally:•bit•uniqueidentifier================================================This suggests to me that any query having where criteria applied to adatatype uniqueidentifier will have the where criteria applied AFTERdata is returned from the linked server.Any ideas on the root problem, and a better solution to get the queryand all the where criteria applied on the remoted linked server?Thanks,Bernie

Is that ONLY for transactions? What if I just wanted to read the data and nothing else?
