Hello!
Question of such plan, to documentation to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition it is written, that the given product supports only PUSH replication, however in his{its} structure there is an agent replmerg.exe which description says:
replication merge. Synchronization means, that the agent of merge transfers changes from the subscriber to the publisher, and then transfers changes from the publisher on the subscriber €¦
And so the question if this agent is present at this edition, whether that is possible to adjust manually his{its} call, or through Windows the agent, for realization PULL replication or it is impossible and for what reasons?
Thanks.
I'm currently working with a 10 million plus row database with the dataresiding on a Unix box with Cache 5.0. The problems is that it can take fivedays to pull one table from Cache to SQL 2000 using the ODBC connectionprovided by Cache in a SQL 2000 DTS package. I think the real problem isconverting the data from the post relational format (Cache) to a relationalformat (SQL 2000)???Does anyone have any ideas / suggestions on how to speed this transfer ofdata? I'm very new to Cache and any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,-p

I have following problem:
I'm developing a Windows Mobile application, which is using RDA Pull for retrieving data from SQL Server 2005 database to PDA. Please, see the example:
Code Snippet
using (SqlCeEngine engine = new SqlCeEngine(connStr))
{
engine.CreateDatabase();
}
serverConnStr="Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=.;User ID=sa;Initial Catalog=Demo;Password=xxx";
using (SqlCeRemoteDataAccess rda = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess(
Configuration.Default.SyncServerAddress, "", "", connStr))
{
rda.Pull("MyTable", "SELECT * FROM mytable", serverConnStr, RdaTrackOption.TrackingOffWithIndexes, "ErrorTable");
}
Everythink works fine, when I use 'sa' user account in serverConnStr.
But, when I change conn string to:
"Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=.;User ID=test;Initial Catalog=Demo;Password=test"
the sqlcesa30.dll cannot connect to SQL Server database.
In the sqlcesa30.log then I found following line:
Code Snippet
2007/04/17 10:43:31 Thread=1EE30 RSCB=16 Command=PULL Hr=80040E4D Login failed for user 'test'. 18456
The user 'test' is member of db_owner, db_datareader and public roles for the Demo database and in SQL Server Management Studio I'm able to login to the Demo database with using the 'test' users credentials and I'm able to run the select command on 'mytable'.
So, what's wrong? Why the sqlcesa30.dll process cannot login to the Demo database, and from another application with using the SAME connection string it works?
Please help.
Thank you.

I've successfully carried out pull subscription using Wizard in SQL server 2000.
But NOW its the time to deploy the project & I've to do it programatically........
i tried to use the default stored procedures like "sp_addmergepullsubscription ", "sp_addmergepullsubscription_agent ", "sp_reinitmergepullsubscription ", with respective parameters.
Then using replmerge.exe i tried to execute the batch file But could not succeed......
Can anyone guide me from the Basics ??? (i knw the Replication Architecture its heirarchy....but have NO idea of performing it Programatically......!!!!!!!!)
by BASICS, i mean......how should i execute the resp. stored procedures with what parametes & the order i should follow in order to successfully pull a merge subscription in SQL server 2000.
if a Sample code is mentioned as example, would be better for me to understand....
Thanking all of you in anticipation...........

I lost my datafile , that's corrupted and I don't have database backup. Any idea ?:(
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf a database consists of more than one datafile, how does SQL Server use the space in these datafiles ?, does it fill up the first one then move to the next and so forth, or does it use up pages across all the files evenly ?.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi need to something like this:
"alter database modify file (name=<name>, ONLINE)",
but it isn't possible.
Here what I did:
alter database bdj add file (name ='bdjfg1', filename='d:db
djfg1.ndf' )
to filegroup bdjfg;
alter database bdj modify file (name='bdjfg1', OFFLINE);
alter database bdj modify file (name ='bdjfg1', filename='d:db

--Msg 5056, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
--Cannot add, remove, or modify a file in filegroup 'bdjfg' because
the filegroup is offline.
Yes, yes and should have read the cautions section saying:
"Use this option only when the file is corrupted and can be restored. A file set to OFFLINE can only
be set online by restoring the file from backup. For more information about restoring a single file,
see RESTORE (Transact-SQL)."
But I have not an backup of the datafile, but I have the datafile itself!
What can I do to get it online again, the old location could be fine, but it would be better on an new location (thats is the reason for all the trouble, the original drive has not much space left, so I wanted to move the datafile)
What can I do, HELP

Hi,
In SQL Server 2000 how to move a secondary data file to different filegroup without removing and re-creating the secondary data file.
Thanks in advance.
-S
I obviously did not search the archives on the right terms so what isthe easiest and fastest way to move a 3G database from a nearly full Cdrive to the nearly empty D drive that should have been used.I could back it up, drop it, recreate it using the D drive, and restoreit but it seems like there should be a way to just move the datafileand use if from the new location.I am thinking that detatch/attach is the best method, but I would likeconfirmation or suggestions on how to proceed or things to be aware ofwhen using this method.-- Mark D Powell --
View 8 Replies View RelatedHi,
I want to insert the contents of a data file into a SQL Server table with XML datatype column using SSIS. I am fairly new to SSIS and script tasks.
Example:
Salary Data file:
EmpID, Name, Salary
100, John, 100000
200, Scott, 200000
Database Table:
create table xmlTable (id int identity(1,1), xmlColumn XML)
The contents of the file needs to be written to xmlTable. For each row in the Salary Data file there will be a corresponding row in the xmlTable.
xmlTable (Result):
1, <EmpID 100...>
2,<EmpID 200...>
Any help with details is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi there,
I have written a program that loads a package (SomePackage.dtsx) from the physical drive and executes that. The package does nothing but imports data from a csv file to the Sql server 2005. But I can see that the package is failing continuously. I meant the package.Execute() method is returning a DTSExecResult.Failure. I investigated the Package.Errors property that contains the error collection and found that there are two DTSError objects into the collection.
The first one€™s description says that
Cannot open the datafile "D:SOME.csv".
And the later one€™s is
component "SOURCE FLAT FILE COMPONENT" (1) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC020200E.
But the most interesting thing is if I execute the package through the Execute package Utility (double clicking onto the SomePackage.dtsx file) ships with Sql server 2005 then it executes fine and works as expected. I have checked the permission of the csv file and it has everyone€™s full access.
Can anyone help me on this?
I will appreciate all kind of suggestions.
Thanks

Is it possible to convert a SQL2K datafile to SQL2K5? I have a 2K database that I need to easily convert to 2K5, I apprecaite any insight on this issue.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn order to perform an automatic way
to link a software using .txt database
to our SQL Database, I need some tips.....
I think about the following solution
- maybe using a "data-base extractor" (Access)
and convert the result into a .txt file,
Which can be automaticly refresh using a
.bat file which will open the .txt file created
3 times a day to refesh the data.
If you have some solution less complicated,

Is there any limit to the maximum size of a datafile or transaction log you can have with SQL Server 2000 on Windows 2000. Also is there a maximum size that should be adhered to for performance and admin reasons ?.

The key information i think would be these few lines:

I don't think its SQL Agent as its scheduling is running other jobs fine(backup)
The DTS package runs fine manually.
Such i suspect dtsrun.exe itself. But where do i go from here?

Hi all
I've found this problem working with a VLDB, six month ago when I install the DBMS (Win2k3 x64+sp2, SQL 2k5 x64 +sp2, 4 dual core processor and 12 GbRAM) I've got 10 disk (actually ten LUN from a Storage Area Network), each 50Gb.
I've put TempDB and Transaction Log on two separate 50 Gb disk and put the database on 8 different data file on the 8 disk; I've created each datafile with a size of 50 Gb (autogrowth disable), so my DB has 400Gb space in it's datafile.
After a while the datafile began to fill and we decide to add a couple more 50Gb disk where I decide to put to new datafile; now my db is around 430 Gb and I've got this strange situation:
The first 8 datafile now are almost full of data, and obviously they can't growth since they already occupy the whole disk.
The two additional datafile are relatively empty (about 15 Gb each).
As far as I understand now each time that SQL should write to the databse it writes only on the 2 new datafile, and I fear that this can affect performance.
I'd like to reorganize the space in order to have 10 datafile, each with 43Gb of data, but I didn't find any instruction/tool able to move data between datafile.
Anyone has any hint ?
Thank you in advance for any suggestion

I need to move a datafile on my secondary database which is in standby mode. I have attempted to use the Restore command with the move and standby parameters
use master

Hi All,
I am on sql server 2005. I have a production database that i log ship to another server and keep a standby copy of that database. Transaction logs are backed up every 15 minutes on the production database then copied to the standby server and then applied in order to the read-only standby database.
Every month we add a new partition and datafile to the production database. This causes the log shipping process to break because the read-only standby database doesn't have the new datafile present. I had hoped that the alter database command to create the datafile would be logshipped. It forces me to do a full db restore every month which is a major pain.
Has anyone encountered a similiar scenario? How can I 'log ship' the addition of a datafile every month and avoid doing a full restore of my standby db?
I should add that this is a home grown log ship process, we aren't using the sql server built-in log shipping. Here is a typical backup transaction log script that i'm using:
-- using sql litespeed
exec master..xp_backup_log @database='dbname,
@filename='d:dbbackupsdbname_txlog_<uniqueidentifier>.bak', @init=1
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm aware of the issues with sizing your logfile growth size too low (causing too many VLFs, etc). But I haven't seen much about the datafile side of it.
Are there any benchmarks specifically on setting datafile growth so low (on databases 1-100Gb in size)? Are there circumstances in well utilized servers where that might be warranted?
