Is it correct to say
in any case exept when data or log file not available pricipal db will be availabe
and manual failover could be done only from from principal?
I know what single user mode does but my doubt is at what situations we will go for this? What operations to perform ? we will keep the database in single user mode.

I am trying to grant various users permissions and am using the following sql command
GRANT Delete ON Resident TO hector AS barbara
barbara is a member of the fixed server role sysadmin and has Delete permission on the Resident table.
I log in to the server as barbara and try and execute this command and get:
Msg 15151, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot find the object 'Resident', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.
If I just run
GRANT Delete ON Resident TO hector
then everything works fine but the grantor is then dbo. I want to be able to have it recorded that barbara was the one that actually gave hector permissino to delete on the Resident table. Is there a way to do this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have database in the database there are a few users that no one is used. When I try to drop thpse users I got next error message:
"The database principal is set as the execution context of one or more procedures, functions, or event notifications and cannot be dropped." (Msg 15136)
Indeed, I think that those users have execute rights on store procedures.
How do I find for wich procedures or other database objects those users have grants?
How do I delete them from database (and maybe from logins of the server)?
How can I see what grants a user has?
How can I see what grants does STP has?
Hi Guys,
I was wondering if there is a system procedure / T-SQL code to programmatically Failover a Database from Principal to mirror mode?
also,
We noticed that at times few of all the databases that were kept on 'Principal' mode get randomly 'Failover'. Does anyone have any idea?
If so, pls respond.
Thank you.
We have mirroring setup for 5 dbs, 4 of which are synchronized and 1 which is in "synchronizing" state on the principal and "restoring" state on the mirror. Mirroring for all dbs has been working fine for the past several months and we have a witness that has allowed automatic failover in the past without problems.
This database has several bulk inserts performed throughout the day and am sure there is some latency due to the size of these transactions.
Not sure as to why this is happening all of a sudden, but the db in question has been in this state for the past 12 hrs. I checked the mirroring status on the principal and it states that it is "synchronizing: data is being transferred from principal to mirror", but the mirror server states that db is in "restoring" state. Can anyone suggest as to how I can get the database on the mirroring server to get back to "mirror, synchronizing/restoring..." state? Or suggest on how I can troubleshoot this?
Thanks in advance.
I have checked my Production databases, both are went to Disconnected state, both are unable to connect to the application, i checked all the services and its working fine. and restarted the end points on Principal and Mirror, still issue not solved, after restart the witness server End point both the databases are working fine.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSQL2005 on winserver 2003. I have a view in Xdb that accesses tables in 2 different databases (Xdb and Ydb) on the same server. I have mixed mode security. I have a SQL user (XYuser) that has read access to all tables and views on both databases, yet when I try to access the view using a C# windows application I get the following error:
The server principal "XYuser" is not able to access the database "Ydb" under the current security context
This same scenario works under SQL 2000. I looked through the postings and tried to set TRUSTWORTHY ON on both databases but that didn't help. I can access any other views or tables on the SQL 2005 server, just not the one that joins the tables cross databases. Any help is much appreciated... john
Hi guys. I created a database "MyDatabase" using an AD Account "user01" which is a member of a domain group "GroupA". I have created a login in my SQL Server 2005 for this AD group. I have also added the said login as a user of my database. I created other AD users and put them in the same group. When I try to access the database using the other users, I get this message
The server principal "MyDomainuser02" is not able to access the database "MyDatabase" under the current security context.
This KB tells me that my situation is triggered by the first case in which the owner of the database is windows authenticated. I have already set the database to be TRUSTWORTHY. I haven't tried CERTIFICATES though. I believe I haven't done anything complex to warrant this solution.
I'm really lost with the myriads of principals and securables that SQL2005 has. All I want is just to execute a certain set of stored procedures. I can't do this because I can't even execute "USE MyDatabase". What are the permissions I need to give to "GroupA" ?
Hi All, I am trying to find records when searchProductCount = 2 AND when searchProductCount < 2 BUT productID not in (select pid from TableB) ... I have the query below ... but is there any other better way to do this?
TableB has IDs: 100, 700 ...etc
eg: searchProduct ID is 50,100
-- means returns everything when we found ALL productID (50,100) from TableA, count =2
Select productName, productID from TableA where searchProductCount = 2 AND productID IN (50,100)
union all
-- when not all productID found in TableA, we only return productsID from TableA which ID found in TableB, count < 2
Select productName, productID from TableA where searchProductCount < 2 and productID IN (select pid from TableB) -- in this case, pid found in TableB from searchProductID will be 100
------------------------------------------------------------------
it comes out there are duplicates results (when first query is valid, we union all second query, so we have duplicates records). How can we eliminate the duplicates? Or is there better way to acheive this without using union all?
Hi friends,

Hi All,
I am using OLEDB Command transformation in a data flow to update the table. Find the columns for the table EMP as follows.
EmpID - int
EmpName - varchar(40)
EmpSal - float
Status - varchar(20)
I am using the following command to update the table.
Update EMP set status = 'Disabled' where EmpID = ? and EmpSal = ?
when I use the above condition the type of the second parameter is taking as "double precision float" as the incoming input column type is "double - precision float". This is fine.
But when I use the following condition the type of the param is taking as different one.
Update EMP set status = 'Disabled' where EmpID = ? and ( EmpSal + ? ) = 0
It is taking as "four byte signed integer" even though the incoming input column type is "double precision float" thus I am loosing the precision and getting error when the limit exeeds. If I use 0.0 then it is taking as "Numeric" type.
If I use convert function like (EmpSal + ? ) = Convert(float, 0) then it is taking as "double precision float".
Update EMP set status = 'Disabled' where EmpID = ? and ( EmpSal + ? ) = Convert(float, 0)
My question is how it behaves in the above situation. Can any body clarify please?

New to Database Mirroring and I have a question about the Principal database server. I have a Database Mirroring setup configured for High-safety with automatic fail over mode using a witness.
When a fail over occurs because of a lost of communication between the principal and mirror, the mirror server takes on the roll of Principal. When communication is returned to the Principal server, at some point does the database that was the previous Principal database automatically go back to being the Principal server?

I am selectively insert data from serverA databaseX to serverB databaseX.
(serverA is linked server on B.)
I could insert parent and child tables. But get error when insert to grand-child tables:
Server: Msg 8501, Level 16, State 3, Line1
MSDTC on server B is unavailable.
Don't think I need to turn on MSDTC on B. But I could copy and paste from source A server to target B server. Confusing on some table could insert while others with error....
thanks

What happend?
Thanks!!
Having to do contigency planning for a log shipping environment. Have the scenario covered for mdf's not being available (on a separate array), or complete server death. But what if the array the log files are on dies? Has anyone had to deal with this? I was wondering if you could just do a full backup of the current DB's and copy them over (I have my log files coming oer about evey 5 minutes) so I am not sure even if I can if I will gain much. Or if you lose your trans logs are you pretty much SOL.
Thanks
I work on a SQL 2000 Standard server that is part of our SBS package. Two days ago we ran a set of MS updates on the server and the residual symptom is that DTS packages, the Import or Export wizard all will not run. The Sql Server Agent service runs under the local system account, however that was true prior to the updates.
The error when attempting to run an import is that the OLEDB connection object is not available. The error occurs when trying to use the Access driver or a DSN. Further investigation indicates that msdb could not be contacted.
Does anyone have an idea as to what might cause this and a workaround?
Thanks,

View 1 Replies View RelatedI can successfully execute my package via Business Studio but when I schedule it in SQL Agent I get the error message, 'could not get proxy data for proxy id = 2.' I am trying to execute the scheduled job with that proxy (call it abcd_proxy) because I have a logon id (call it abcd) with access to a specific network drive folder, which holds a required source flat file. The abcd logon is defined as a sysadmin account. I am unable to see that the abcd logon id is an added principal within the abcd_proxy, which I think is because the abcd logon principal has a sysadmin role. My proxy id = 2 definition looks to be defined the same way that my first proxy id was.
Does anyone have an idea about what the message means and how I can fix it?
I am using asynchronous mirroring. When I try to failover on the mirror server using €œalter database xxx set partner force_service_allow_data_loss€? (having disconnected the primary server from the network) it sometimes fails to failover (it reports that the database is not in the correct state to failover). I can re-connect the primary server, get them sync€™d again, then unplug the primary and it will failover ok.
Any ideas... or is this just an issue that will be fixed in the next SP?
I have a Server Agent Job that does a full backup of my principal database. I then have a separate job which does an incremental backup of the log files every 20 mins throughout the working day - the incremental backup sends me an email if it fails.
If I establish a failover to the mirror server, the backups continually try to run, sending me an email every 20 mins telling me that it can't back up the database as it's a Mirror.
Is there any way to script a method in the job that checks to see if the DB is a principal or mirror. if it's a principal I want the backup to happen, if it's a mirror I want it to skip the job.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help

Hi.
I'm installing SQL Server 2005 on Vista Home Premium machines (I tried 2 machines and same problem).
It keeps giving the warning IIS not available / installed.
On both mahcines I've installed all IIS components via Control Panel > Programs & Features > Turn Windows Features On / Off. That includes the v 6.0 compatibility services
I can't find anything on MS besides "How to install IIS..." which provides no answer. I have installed Vista SP1 and all updates are installed. No other messages are given in the SQL installation.
Thanks,
