Easy Questions Related With A-P Cluster
Jan 10, 2007
Hi everyone,
I'm just a newbie with clustering.
We've got a 64-bit A-P cluster running with Sql25k 64-bit too.
Each node own two local network adapters. One of them (the one currently is Active) own three IP and the another one only one.
Why? From CLUADMIN I see as one of these three is set as Cluster IP Address in Active Resources. So I see the following configuration for the Active node:
Adapter 1: IP public for Active Directory
Adapter2: IP1 (reserved or ???????)
IP2 (used as SQL IP Address 1 in Active Resources)
IP3 (used as Cluster IP Address in Active Resources)
Passive node:
Adapter 1: IP public for Active Directory
Adapter2: IP (only have one ???)
Is this correct/necessary? Does anyone have similar configuration?
Thanks for your time,

Hi, I don't use SQL much but I need to know how to form the following query against a SQL table. I have a single table with two columns - CurrentPage and LastPage.
I need to write SQL to perform a number of iterations of a particular insert into another table, depending upon the count from CurrentPage to LastPage i've put the following Pseudocode together, but need help implementing this.
Declare counter
Set counter = currentpage
If counter > lastpage
Goto task exit loop
Else perform task - (insert string into table)
Increment counter and loop
I've been playing / reading up, but i'm getting nowhere fast -
DECLARE @Count int
DECLARE @Current string
DECLARE @Last string
SET @Current= dbSL.tblPaging_colCurrentPage
SET @Count= dbSL.tblPaging._colPagingCount
SET @Last= dbSL.tblPaging._colLastPage
WHILE @Count <= dbSL.tblPaging._colLastPage
BEGIN
PRINT 'Hello World'
SET @Count = @Count +1
END
Any help much appreciatted.
Thanks

I have a couple questions about replication (for both 2000 and 2005 servers):
1. which system tables/dmvs/system sprocs can I look at to determine which columns of a table are being replicated?
2. which system tables/dmvs/sprocs can I call to get metadata about publishers and subscribers?
Thanks!

0) We are migrating data from SQL Server 2000 OLTP design to SQL Server 2005 OLAP design.
1) We have an data flow task SSIS package.
2) We managed to send a mail with various variables & their values in subject or body of mail.
3) How do we send mail with details of Error/Warning using OnError/OnWarning events?
4) Can we have bad tables i.e where records which failed to migrate get inserted into. If yes, what are the steps to implement this.
5) Can we have a mix of in-built & custom logging. Is logging provider necessary to do logging. What logging provider to use?
6) Where are the errors that come during build, deploy, install and execute stored? Is there a log file(s) & what it their location?
7) Please post links if that is better.

Hello
I have a windows application that connects to a SQLExpress database hosted on a shared server. The client machines will run an interface software and interact with the info within SQL The SQL database isn't huge (50 megs) and all of the info is text. The interface application isn't too complex either, it was designed using VB.net05. I have a few setup questions:
1 - Is it best to use Windows or SQL authentiaction? Currently I am using Windows authentication and I have a user group setup on the DNS that is setup as a user for the SQL database. That has worked so far, but I've only had a few users logged in at one time so far. My plan was to add all DNS accounts that will use the software to the DNS user group, thus giving them access to the SQL database.
2 - I know this gets asked a TON, but I am interested in knowing how many users I should be able to support using the current setup. I have the one user acount setup for the DNS user group. The SQL table is not huge and it is all reading and writing text. The server is running Windows Server 03 and is a couple years old (not sure of exact specs).
Thanks for any help, I am still learning my way around SQL and it's great to have such a vast amount of support for the product.
Happy New Year!

We are trying to setup a Windows Server 2003 Cluster with 2 systems and a DAV. We intend to install SQL 2005 on this Cluster. We purchased a DAV with 3 physical disk arrays as follows.
73GB RAID 1 (our plan is to use this to store sql transaction logs)
146GB RAID 1 (sql backups, temp database & other temp files)
420GB RAID 10 (sql databases)
Now as we are setting all this up we find out we need a shared physical drive on the DAV to store the Quorom. It is my understanding we cannot partition the physical drives and use one of the partitions to store the Quorum because when you create the resource for the Quorum the resource is the phsyical disk not the partition.
So my question is, is it in our best interest to buy a seperate physical disk for the Quorom?
My next question is, with regards to the MSDTC, is it in our best interest to buy a seperate physical disk for the MSDTC or can we store it on the 146GB RAID 1 and still use the drive for its original purpose?
Any guidance is much appreciated.

I am in the process of moving databases from a SQL 2005 Standard version to a 2-node 2014 cluster.All of my 2005 databases back up successfully.They all restore without issue except for one database that has a full text catalog. I get this message
Msg 7610, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Access is denied to "fileStoragedataMSSQLSERVERFullTextCatalog", or the path is invalid.
Msg 3156, Level 16, State 50, Line 2
File 'sysft_FTCatalog' cannot be restored to 'fileStoragedataMSSQLSERVERFullTextCatalog'. Use WITH MOVE to identify a valid location for the file.
Msg 3119, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Problems were identified while planning for the RESTORE statement. Previous messages provide details.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
[code]....
I went as far as giving the folder full access to everyone temporarily and received the same error.

I have following script which i am planning to run to drop all non-clustered primary keys on a database and then created as clustered. I am using someone else's script so don't know how to modify this. Some of primary key columns are used in references in other tables.
is there anyway i can drop the existing primary keys and using their original script then create again as clustered including restoring all foreign and reference keys and unique or no unique.
DECLARE @table NVARCHAR(512), @tablename NVARCHAR(512),
@sql NVARCHAR(MAX), @sql2 NVARCHAR(MAX), @sql3 NVARCHAR(MAX),
@column NVARCHAR(MAX);

Hi thanks for looking at my question
Using sqlServer management studio 2005
My Tables are something like this:
--Table 1 "Employee"
CREATE TABLE [MyCompany].[Employee](
[EmployeeGID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[BranchFID] [int] NOT NULL,
[FirstName] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[MiddleName] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[LastName] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Employee] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[EmployeeGID]
)
GO
ALTER TABLE [MyCompany].[Employee]
WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Employee_BranchFID]
FOREIGN KEY([BranchFID])
REFERENCES [myCompany].[Branch] ([BranchGID])
GO
ALTER TABLE [MyCompany].[Employee] CHECK CONSTRAINT [FK_Employee_BranchFID]
-- Table 2 "Branch"
CREATE TABLE [Mycompany].[Branch](
[BranchGID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[BranchName] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[City] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[ManagerFID] [int] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Branch] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[BranchGID]
)
GO
ALTER TABLE [MyCompany].[Branch]
WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Branch_ManagerFID]
FOREIGN KEY([ManagerFID])
REFERENCES [MyCompany].[Employee] ([EmployeeGID])
GO
ALTER TABLE [MyCompany].[Branch]
CHECK CONSTRAINT [FK_Branch_ManagerFID]
--Foreign IDs = FID
--generated IDs = GID
Then I try a simple single row DELETE
DELETE FROM MyCompany.Employee
WHERE EmployeeGID= 39
Well this might look like a very basic error:
I get this Error after trying to delete something from Table €œEmployee€?
The DELETE statement conflicted with the
REFERENCE constraint "FK_Branch_ManagerFID".
The conflict occurred in database "MyDatabase",
table "myCompany.Branch", column 'ManagerFID'.
Yes what I€™ve been doing is to deactivate the foreign key constraint, in both tables when performing these kinds of operations, same thing if I try to delete a €œBranch€? entry, basically each entry in €œbranch€? and €œEmployee€? is child of each other which makes things more complicated.
My question is, is there a simple way to overcome this obstacle without having to deactivate the foreign key constraints every time or a good way to prevent this from happening in the first place? Is this when I have to use €œON DELETE CASCADE€? or something?
Thanks

Hi
We are planning to upgrade the SQL Server in our production environment from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. This is a 4 Node cluster environment with 3 Databases on 3 Virtual instances. The main requirement is to achieve this with no/minimal downtime.
Could you please suggest or direct me to any documentation for the best practices used to upgrade such an environment?

We have (had) an active/active cluster. 2 physical machines,
each running their own instance, clustered together. Node1/Ins1 and Node2/Ins2.
Node2 failed and Ins2 failed over to Node1 as it should. Node2 required that we
rebuild the server (rebuild = reinstall O/S). Now we need to get Node2 back
into the cluster and get Ins2 failed back over to Node2.
Does anyone know, for certain, the correct steps to accomplish this? Obviously,
we could backup everything and completely destroy Ins2 and recreate it on Node2
then rejoin the cluster. But I'm looking for something less destructive.
Is it possible to reinstall SQL, then rejoin the cluster, and then fail Node2
over? Or will there be registry conflictions?
Any help would be appreciated. Also, if you have any links to some official
documentation, that would be great too.
Thanks

We're upgrading a SQL Server 2000 cluster (Active/Passive) running on Windows 2000 Server to a SQL Server 2005 Cluster running on Windows Server 2003. We can't purchase new hardware and we have no spare hardware. We also need to move from Windows 2000 Server to Windows 2003 Server at the same time. We want to keep downtime to a bare minimum.
What we were thinking was the following steps... Anyone try this?
1. Break the link between the servers.
2. Install a fresh copy of windows 2003 server on one side along with SQL Server 2005. While this step is running, the active node would still be live on Windows 2000 Server and SQL Server 2000 serving our customers.
3. Restore a copy of a backup from the active production side to the node we're upgrading and at that point we would bring the active node down, switching the active node to be the newly upgraded server.
4. As a final step, the old active node would now have the link to it broken, we would install a fresh copy of windows 2003 server on it and sql server 2005. At this point we would bring it back into the cluster and the cluster would be complete again.
Thoughts?

Can the SQL Cluster Virtual IP be the same as the cluster IP?
Can I set up the cluster like:
Node 1:10.0.0.1
Node 2:10.0.0.2
MSCS Shared:10.0.0.3
SQL Virtual:10.0.0.3
or do they need to be unique?

I'm banging my head against the wall. It's probably pretty simple so here goes...
I have a form that supposed to add records to a table on the database. I'm pretty sure I have the dataAdapter and Dataset set right but when I add a record, it complains that the primary key can’t be null. I’ve tried different things, including removing those fields and variables from the stored Proc, changing the Identity Properties of the Table, changing the AutoIncrement settings on the Dataset for that field, but all give me different errors. Nothing actually makes it work. This database has many records in it and the Primary key is a decimal field that starts at 5, then next was 10, then 28, then it started getting consecutive after 110. (111, 112, 113, etc.) (I'm porting over an old database to a new web site, so I'm somewhat contrained by the database.)
I guess my question is for adding records in to a database that has a primary unique key constraint. Certainly this is a pretty common thing. Obviously I do not want users to enter that in themselves, I thought it should simply autocreate/autonumber. So what is the best procedure and gotcha’s I need to watch out for?

//Open up the connection
conn.Open();
//Setup the Transaction
trans = conn.BeginTransaction();
//First query in transaction
pre_query = "Delete from Menu where spec_name="

//Second query in transaction
query = "INSERT into Menu VALUES ('"
+ Calendar1.SelectedDate

+ spec_name_array[i].Text.ToString()
+"','"
+ spec_desc_array[i].Text.ToString()
+"','"

+"',1)";
SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(pre_query,conn);
//Setup the command to handle transaction
comm.Transaction = trans;
//Execute first query
comm.ExecuteNonQuery();
//Add in second query
comm.CommandText = query;
//Execute second query
comm.ExecuteNonQuery();
trans.Commit();
}
catch(SqlException ex)
{
com_label.Text = "Submission Not complete, did you forget the date or something else?";
//Undo all queries
trans.Rollback();
}
finally

This may not be the right place for this post...but my head is hurting and I can't think right now.
I have a SQL table of users. Each record has a required 'Birthdate' field. I'd like to order this by the days left till the give birthday, keeping in mind that the year may be 1980 or their birthday might have been 2 weeks ago.
Can someone cure my headache?

I have written 2 custom connection mgr€™s.
One connects the data from an oracle source
One connects so I can put the data on a sql server.
These both work well and it makes it a lot easier across development, test, production.
But now I would like a good way to do this
I have 10 tables to copy from oracle. The only difference is just the name of the table.
static string[] g_tables =
{
"table_name_1",
"table_name_2",
"table_name_3",
€¦
};
foreach (string str_table in g_tables)
{
Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleCommand OracleCommand = new Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleCommand
(
"select * from " + str_table,
OracleConnection
);
Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleDataReader OracleDataReader =
OracleCommand.ExecuteReader();
// dump out to raw file destination
}
I understand there are some pieces left out but that is the basic idea. It seems like I€™m going to have write custom pieces for each step.
It does not seem like there is any advantage to using SSIS. Should I give up now and stick to writing windows services for stuff like this?
I could just write a specific piece for each table but the only difference is the table name.
