SQL 2000 - Changing Maint Plans; Any Gotchas?
Oct 16, 2007Hi fellow techs! I am getting to know SQL 2000 intimately and it's been a fun ride with the top down!
My question is, are there any gotchas that I should be aware of in SQL 2000 if I want to change 3 of my databases running on one 2000 SQL server from simple to full recovery model? I want to begin backing up the log file for point in time purposes, but don't want anything to break by disregarding the gotchas, if there are any.
Thanks!
Upgarding
Jul 6, 2000Hi,
I have upgraded my server from 6.5 to 7.0.The application is running
on PowerBuilder 6.5.After upgrade the performence of application is
down by 200 % .The application basically validates claims.All the code
is written in front end except for one trigger.When i ran a trace on 7.0
i found s system stored procedure SP_cursoropen which is taking more time.
I found from 6.5 trace for same data the same procedure is taking very less
time.I came to know from BOL that this procedure is used internally by
SQL server to deal with server side cursors written from front end
application.Is there any way to tune the server to improve performence.
I found a configuration option Cursor_Threshold .Can any one suggest me
about this configuration option?
Thanks in Advance

Log Viewing On SQL7/2000
Oct 25, 2001It was possible to read the transaction log on SQL 6.5 with DBCC LOG and find out what was going on. Is there any way to do this in SQL 7.0/2000 or do you now have to rely on SQL Profiler? I have noticed that SQLProbe has a log viewer in it and would like to know how they did it.
View 1 Replies View Related64-bit SQL 2005 - Any Gotchas?
Feb 13, 2008Hi there
Our developers want to implement a new system but rather than buy new db servers for the purpose, they'd like to use existing kit - as consolidation seems to be the direction our company is going in. We are in the process of purchasing new servers which host 64-bit windows 2003 and 64-bit sql 2005.
The developers don't really have a requirement as to whether the db servers are 32-bit or 64-bit, but as they want to make use of our kit, their new system will potentially be hosted on 64-bit os/sql 2005. As they haven't done the reseacrh into potential issues, we'll have to do that for them - is there anything we need to worry about? I know there are some issues with SSIS, such as no 64 bit support for Jet Engine data sources, etc. Is there anything else we need to be aware of?
Any tips would be appreciated!
Thanks,

X64 Gotchas List?
Jan 6, 2006Hi,
Does Microsoft have (for those MS folks who monitor this forum) or has anyone compiled a list of gotchas on running SSIS for x64. I know of two right now from this forum (and there are undoubtedly more):
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=167907&SiteID=1
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=179483&SiteID=1
I was thinking of deploying an SSIS infrastructure on Windows Server 2003 x64, but if there are too many problems or complicated workarounds, it might not be worth it.
Thanks,

Uninstalling V6.5 After 7.0 Install - Any Gotchas?
May 7, 1999I'm about to unistall V6.5 from my 7.0 server. Has anyone done this yet?
Does it require a machine reboot? Have you had any problems after the uninstall? Is it really as simple as the BOL leads me to believe?

Extended Memory For SQL7 On Advanced Server 2000
Jan 24, 2002Could anyone inform me how much the conventional memory SQL7 Enterprise on Advanced Server 2000 can have?
The SQL is on an active/active cluster. Currently each runs at 2GB of memory, with available memory for failover. I am planning to add another 2GB to each SQL node. Is this possible? Are there any configurations I need to do? Do I need to set AWE enabled? and How much?
Your help is greatly appreciate.

How Do I Identify Object Modification Date Under Sql7 And 2000
May 23, 2001I used to rely heavily on the sysobjects.crdate under mssql 6.5 to identify the last time an object was updated (primarily sprocs, but also tables and views). With the Sql7 Alter command, there doesn't seem to be any easy way to tell the last time an object was changed. Is this data stored out on any of the system tables/information views?

It is repliacted on 5 further w2K machines.

Dec 5, 1998How can I copy a SQL 7 database from one server to another? Please tell me all the ways because I've tried the obvious and it doesn't work. (backup and restore - won't go from one server to another, DTS transfer object Wizard - does a whole pile of errors and doesn't do stored proceedures and trigures). Thanks for help in advance. Also, what is the email address to post to the listserv and where is the FAQ for SQL7? Most of my listserv's tell you where to post right at the bottom of the digest I get - any chance you guys would do that with this list? Thanks again.

SQL7.0 Installation On NT4.0
Feb 11, 2002I am going to install SQL7.0 on the current NT4.0 with SQL6.5 on it by uninstalling SQL6.5 first and then installing (not upgrading through Wizard) SQL7.0.
Here are the questions I need help with:
1. Should I convert the database after the installation of SQL7.0 or directly restore the SQL6.5 databases backup?
2. If I need to convert the databases, How and in what way?
3. Which way is better upgrade or installation?
Thank you ahead of time

View 3 Replies View RelatedSQL7 SP MDAC
Sep 17, 2000Hi folks. Got a real doozy going. One of the network techs reinstalled NT4 SP5 on a server. This reverted the SQL driver back to 2.something. Now sqlserveragent jobs will not run.
I have tried to instal MDAC 2.5, but it doesn't change the driver up to the new 3.xxx driver. I searched around on here and folks said that you have to move the MDAC executable to a new directory. for the new MDAC I don't see MDAC.EXE. I did find MDAC.COM and renamed that. Tried to rerun MDAC 2.5 but still got the old SQLSRV32.Dll.
Uninstalled SQLServer and reinstalled. still got the old SQLSRV32.Dll.
Tried to apply SQLServer SP1. It died.
Found that I am to shutdown some services. Did that. SP1 still dies.
Tried to apply SQLSERVER SP2. It tries to pick up where it died and it dies again.
SO, I'm currently uninstalling SQLServer, reboot, installing SQLServer, reboot, Trying SP2 again.
Didn't think that it was brain surgery just to install a new flippin version of the ODBC driver.. SHEEZ!!!!

I need to know can I use Japanese characters in SJIS format with American SQL 7 on Win2K. I must be able to integrate a Japanese language database and an English language database on one platform.

Can you helP?

Filegroups In SQL7.0
Jan 23, 2001Is there any way in which I can move an objects/ data to another
filegroup using transact sql?
I have created a table such that the data is on a secondary filegroup.
But the table has image and text data and this data is going to
the PRIMARY filegroup.
I tried chnging the filegroup for the text data but this property but does not change(I did it through EM).
As a result, the disk which contains the primary filegroup is getting filled up.
I have configured my database such that the primary file group is on one disk and the secondary on another and the log on the same disk as the primary filegroup.
I have given lesser space to the primary file group and more space to the secondary filegroup.
help on this is greatly appreciated because my system is rapidly growing with respect to data.
thanks and best regards

Mmc Crashing With SQL7.0
Dec 2, 1999Has anybody had any problems with mmc crashing when running Enterprise Manager on SQL Server 7.0/SP1? This occurs on a fairly regular basis on several of our development NT client machines (NT SP4 and SP5). We are running Version 1.1 of mmc. Is there a later version (or service pack) we need to be using?
Any comments on this would be appreciated.
