Hello everybody .
I have 40 GB db running mostly transaction processing.
I set up
1. back full backup 2 times a day (takes 30 -40 min)
2. log backup every 15 min
3. custom log shipping
4. We don't won't use Cluster.
Once in while becouse of nethwork, or other problem log shipping fails,
so I have to restart log shipping all over starting from restore in stand by mode last full back of my db.IT takes 2-3 hrs just to do this restore !!!
1. So I am asking advice is any way I do restore in less time ?
2. Should diffrential backup be taken ?
3. We will not use Custer
I created log shipping btw two servers using maintenance plan.
maintainanace plan taking the log backups and copying those backups in the standby server but unable to restore thos log backups
i am getting the following error ( for the Log Restore job) Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM. sqlmaint.exe failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22029). The step failed.
In the logshipping monitor history i found the follwing error [Microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQLState: 42000)] Error 4305: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The log in this backup set begins at LSN 4830000001442600001, which is too late to apply to the database. An earlier log backup that includes LSN 4828000001884200001 can be restored. [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]RESTORE LOG is terminating abnormally.
Can SQL Server 7.0 be installed on a laptop as a stand-alone run-time application (using a VB front-end application)? Is it necessary to use MS Access as a gateway, or can SQL Server 7.0 really stand on its own?
Here is the scenario: We have an existing production non clustered SQL 2000 server instance that we need to migrate to a new clustered SQL 2000 server instance. We need to accomplish this without affecting the FQDN that applications use to call this server. I found this article on a solution to rename the server after an xcopy of the entire db structure. Here is the link http://vyaskn.tripod.com/moving_sql_server.htm. The other issue that we are trying to resolve is the time it takes for the snapshots of replication to run (in our case almost a full day). That is why this approach looked like it may be a good solution for us.
Here is the question: Is it possible to move our existing database to a new clustered environment without having to change the FQDN that other applications use to access this database and without having to reinitialize replication?
HI!I have a little problem:I have change the administrator password (Windows 2003 Server) which MSSQL 2000 use to login.And now the SQL server can't stand up.What should I do?thx!gicio--Posted via http://dbforums.com
I just start my job as sql server DBA. We have disaster recovery plan. We implement Log shipping . My question after the server failiure, when production server up again ,how to point stand by server to production server?, any help will be appreciated.
i'm going nuts with SQL server notification thing. I have gone throigh this artical which tells how to set user http://www.codeproject.com/KB/database/SqlDependencyPermissions.aspx. This article show how to create new user and setup for sql server notification.But In my case user was alredy existing in database. which is very common senario in most cases. So i did following( check the SQL script below) but then i get this error "A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)" this my sql script use [master]Go -- Ensuring that Service Broker is enabled ALTER DATABASE [DatabaseName] SET ENABLE_BROKERGO -- Switching to our databaseuse [DatabaseName]GO CREATE SCHEMA schemaname AUTHORIZATION usernameGO ALTER USER username WITH DEFAULT_SCHEMA = schemaname GO /* * Creating two new roles.

In Windows Server 2012. How do I do a System Restore to a previous restore point?I need to install the 64 bit and 32 bit Oracle Client Install for connections in SSIS and to create Oracle Linked Servers.
If you make a mistake it is not fun removing it. Sometimes it corrupts the machine and it is difficult to uninstall since there is not an Oracle Universal installer for Oracle 11g.If you install the 32 bit before the 64 you mess up the machine.how to create a restore point.
I need to be able to run a DTS package from a computer that doesn't have any SQL tools on it. What do I need to copy over to that machine to do so? dtsrun.exe, dll's, etc. Thanks
What Does the "SQL" Stand for? I am just starting to teach myself Visual Studio Programing and some other applications. I can build any computer system that is out there and I have; So I think it is now time for me to study modern programing.
I started waching the Visual LESSONS, provided by Microsoft and I must say "Programing has come a long way since Micosoft (BASICA) and (DOS)"..... I am very enthusiastic about the new wave Software laguages....
Computing has been my hobby as well as a outstanding educational tool, I feel that what makes it so great is that you can spend all you life working or playing with them and NEVER reach and end.... So as a retired Machine and ToolMaker I will lean a new field at my own pace.... And Who Knows????????????
Thank you All......... ToolMan59........ Long Life And Good Health to All.......
I was trying to extract data from the source server using OLEDB Source and SQL Server Destination when i encountered this error:
"Transaction (Process ID 135) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.".
What must be done so that even if the table being queried is locked, i wouldn't experience any deadlock?
Hello all, I am running into an interesting scenario on my desktop. I'm running developer edition on Windows XP Professional (9.00.3042.00 SP2 Developer Edition). OS is autopatched via corporate policy and I saw some patches go in last week. This machine is also a hand-me-down so I don't have a clean install of the databases on the machine but I am local admin.
So, starting last week after a forced remote reboot (also a policy) I noticed a few of the databases didn't start back up. I chalked it up to the hard shutdown and went along my merry way. Friday however I know I shut my machine down nicely and this morning when I booted up, I was in the same state I was last Wenesday. 7 of the 18 databases on my machine came up with
FCB:pen: Operating system error 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.) occurred while creating or opening file 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataTest.mdf'. Diagnose and correct the operating system error, and retry the operation. and it also logs FCB:pen failed: Could not open file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataTest.mdf for file number 1. OS error: 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.).
I've caught references to the auto close feature being a possible culprit, no dice as the databases in question are set to False. Recovery mode varies on the databases from Simple to Full. If I cycle the SQL Server service, whatever transient issue it was having with those files is gone. As much as I'd love to disable the virus scanner, network security would not be amused. The data and log files appear to have the same permissions as unaffected database files. Nothing's set to read only or archive as I've caught on other forums as possible gremlins. I have sufficient disk space and the databases are set for unrestricted growth.
Any thoughts on what I could look at? If it was everything coming up in RECOVERY_PENDING it's make more sense to me than a hit or miss type of thing I'm experiencing now.
Dear list Im designing a package that uses Microsofts preplog.exe to prepare web log files to be imported into SQL Server
What Im trying to do is convert this cmd that works into an execute process task D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoad>preplog ex.log > out.log the above dos cmd works 100%
However when I use the Execute Process Task I get this error [Execute Process Task] Error: In Executing "D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoadpreplog.exe" "" at "D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoad", The process exit code was "-1" while the expected was "0".
There are two package varaibles User::gsPreplogInput = ex.log User::gsPreplogOutput = out.log
How do I use the execute process task? I am trying to unzip the file using the freeware PZUnzip.exe and I tried to place the entire command in a batch file and specified the working directory as the location of the batch file, but the task fails with the error:
SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC0029151 at Unzip download file, Execute Process Task: In Executing "C:ETLPOSDataIngramWeeklyUnzip.bat" "" at "C:ETLPOSDataIngramWeekly", The process exit code was "1" while the expected was "0".
Then I tried to specify the exe directly in the Executable property and the agruments as the location of the zip file and the directory to unzip the files in, but this time it fails with the following message:
SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC002F304 at Unzip download file, Execute Process Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "%1 is not a valid Win32 application".
The command in the batch file when run from the command line works perfectly and unzips the file, so there is absolutely no problem with the command, I believe it is just the set up of the variables on the execute process task editor under Process. Any input on resolving this will be much appreciated.
I am designing a utility which will keep two similar databases in sync. In other words, copying the new data from db1 to db2 and updating the old data from db1 to db2.
For this I am making use of the 'Tablediff' utility which when provided with server name, database, table info will generate .sql file which can be used to keep the target table in sync with the source table.
I am using the Execute Process Task and the process parameters I am providing are:
The customer.bat file will have the following code: tablediff -sourceserver "LV-SQL5" -sourcedatabase "TC_CTI" -sourcetable "CUSTOMER_1" -destinationserver "LV-SQL2" -destinationdatabase "TC_CTI" -destinationtable "CUSTOMER" -f "c:SQL_bat_Filessql5TC_CTIsql_filescustomer1"
the .sql file will be generated at: C:SQL_bat_Filessql5TC_CTIsql_filescustomer1.
The Problem: The Execute Process Task is working fine, ie., the tables are being compared correctly and the .SQL file is being generated as desired. But the task as such is reporting faliure with the following error :
[Execute Process Task] Error: In Executing "C:SQL_bat_FilesSQL5TC_CTIpackage_occurrence.bat" "" at "C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90COM", The process exit code was "2" while the expected was "0". ]
Some of you may suggest to just set the ForceExecutionResult = Success (infact this is what I am doing now just to get the program working), but, this is not what I desire.
Does anyone know what aspnet_regsql.exe requires to run stand-alone? I have to apply the .NET 2.0 Management/Role API to a sql2000 database on a machine that does not have the .net 2.0 framework installed.

Can I have warm stand by database on SQL 2000 Server.The source server will be SQL 7.0. In another words can i shipp transaction logs from SQL 7.0 and make Warm stand by on SQL 2000 with SQL 7.0 full and transaction log backups Thanks Mike
I have a sql server db that works fine when I connect via the internet and from the network, but when I try to connect after disconnecting from the network it doesn't find the database (even though the sql server db is on the machine I am using after disconnecting, of course).
Is there something wrong with my connection string? Could it be the Windows/SQL Server/Mixed Authentication mode?
Maybe the best question I could ask is, if I want to run sql server as a web back-end, as a network utility, and as a local db for a windows app, how should I have it set up from a security/authentication standpoint?
My management ask me use logshipping in the part of Disaster Recovery plan,as per i know i have put target database in STAND BY mode in logshipping if ACTIVE MODE fail's how can i bring back the logshipped DB to active
Our production server is currently running SQL 2005 on a stand alone machine. SQL Server is installed as a default instance.
Can we upgrade to a cluster without having to change the instance name i.e currently applications connect to this server with hostname of the server i.e SERVERA, can we install a cluster such that sql server can still be called SERVERA.
I'm currently working on an application that needs to store address information. I figured a database of some sort would be the perfect thing to use.
The thing is: The application will work locally, there will be no server running on a network
There shouldn't be any login and password protection for the db When I later on install the application on a computer, a fresh and clean db should be created within the applications folde
How can I create and access a db like that using c# and MS SQL Server?
Any hints, tips, example code, links...anything?
Many thanks in advance!!!
PS. I've been working some with visual c# express and recently installed SQL Server & Manager. I've previusly made some php web pages using MySQL but I´m a total noob when it comes to working with SQL and c# (= I'm stuck!).
I'm pulling data from Oracle db and load into MS-SQL 2008.For my data type checks during the data load process, what are options to ensure that the data being processed wouldn't fail. such that I can verify first in-hand with the target type of data and then if its valid format load it into destination table else mark it with error flag and push into errors table... All this at the row level.One way I can think of is to load into a staging table then get the source & destination table -column data types, compare them and proceed.
should I just try loading the data directly and if it fails try trouble shooting(which could be a difficult task as I wouldn't know what caused error...)
Does MSDTC auto-install with the plain vanilla version of SQL Enterprise? Or do I have to install it later?Do you know of any links that reference specifically SQL 2012 stand-alone server installs of MSDTC?
Hi,I'm looking for stand alone installation for SQL server Client tools,or the files required for creating such an installation. I would liketo include this installation as part of the setup for my ownSQL-dependant app. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
