We are running SQL Server 2000 on a w2k server. I want to set up alerts to notify me through SQL Server Agent. The doc states to open the Mail icon in Control Panel but on this server there is no Mail icon. I thought that if Outlook Express was installed on the server the mail icon would be there. We have OE installed but there is no Mail icon.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi,
I've set the Query time-out parameter for my default MSDE instance to 1 sec (through the Enterprise Manager) and since the restart of the server I can't connect it through any client tool.
Does anybody know how to return the default value of Query time-out (600s) without using enterprise manager?
thanx a lot
We have occasional problems with transactional replication between 2 databases, and the problem is we dont notice right away. Usually the customer notices a few days after replication has stopped, and thats no good. We want to be notified as soon as there is any problem related to replication so we can go in and figure it out.
Ive been playing with the alerts, and it LOOKS like I should be able to do what I want, but after several hours I still cannot make any of the alerts work.
In my test environment, I'm forcing the following error, in order to try and test an alert: error 20598 "The row was not found at the Subscriber when applying the replicated command."
This seems to be one of our more common errors, and also its really easy to produce, so it seemed like a good candidate for testing the alert.
First off, I noticed that the agent profile was set to "Continue on data consistancy errors", which ignores error 20598. So I changed the profile to "Default", which doesnt skip any errors.
Next I set up a simple Job that simply writes a string to a file. I tested the job by calling it manually and it works. Once i can prove that this job is actually being called, I will change it to email me and the team.
Then I created a new alert in the publisher database which watches for error code 20598. Its response is to call the job I mentioned above. So when the error occurs, a string should be written to that file.
Then I forced the 20598 error to occur. I deleted a row in the subscriber DB, and then changed the corresponding row in the publisher. This causes the error to occur. In my replication monitor, I see new entries saying "Skipped 1 error(s) when applying transactions at the Subscriber." I'm not sure why it says skipped, but I know that these entries are the 20598 error that I'm trying to produce.
Now, there was nothing written to my text file, and I can see from the job history that my job was never called. If I look at the history of my test alert, it says "never occured".
I forced the 20598 error to occur, and I have an alert that is watching for the 20598 error, but it never fires.
I also created an alert in the subscriber database, watching for the same error. This alert was not called either.
Hello Guys,
I have a Question. I want to set up a sql alert that will monitor a particular counter(Eg. Memory:pages/sec) and send me an email when it reaches a particular threshold.
My question is if i set up this, Will sql will start running a perfmon on the background and degrade server's performance
OR
Will it just read it from some system file or something to to get the values.
I dont know if the perfmon counter values are stored in any system files or not.
Please advise..
thank you in advance.
Hi all,
I have configured some Mirroring alerts based on Micosoft's documents. Mirroring.
If you can help me in setting some of the "Thresholds" for the Mirroiring alerts. That will be helpful, because i didnt see anywhere about the actual threshold limits setting for alerts ( In Production). Any approx. also OK.
At Principal:
(a) Unsent Log = ------ KB
(b) Oldest Unsent Transaction = ---- Minutes
At Mirror:
(c) Unrestored Log = ---- KB.
(d) Mirror Commit Overhead = --- MilliSeconds
Thanks again.
On one of our machines, all of the SQL Server 2000components except for the main Server component (SQL Servercore) itself were installed (Management tools, etc) a while agoand everything was running fine. Now I go and add/install theServer component and then Service Pack 3a.It seems that Service Manager won't start up (I get an hourglass cursor)and now I find that Enterprise Manager won't run as well. No errormessages appeared and I don't think I saw anything unusual inthe log file.However, I can use Enterprise Manager on a differentmachine and connect to the database (so the databaseitself seems to be running).Any suggestions as to what the problem might be and how tofix it? I like to see if I can repair this without havingto do a reinstall.Thanks.PF
View 2 Replies View RelatedIF someone can assist me. Everytime I load up enterprise manager the service manager turns off. And the enterprise manager can't connect to the local database. But everytime i turn it back on and try to connect again it shuts it off and around and around we go. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I installed SQL Server MSDE 2000 but I can't find how to start it. Does this package include an Enterprise Manager or not? I thought that maybe it was a standard XP Pro feature. I had no problem finding it in W2000 Pro.

We can no longer open tables in EM. The error message is;

The tables are fine - can access them other ways.It looks as if the fault is in the script used by EM. Anyway to clear this ??

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am considering upsizing my Access 2000 DB to a SQL 7 server. I was told that having SQL 7 Enterprise Manager is highly prefferd but not essential as I can maintain the upsized DB with Access 2000. The only way that I have been able to find JUST enterprise manager seems to be with purchasing the whole SQL 7 program for $1300! Microsoft cannot be that cruel, that you have to buy the whole program just for Enterprise Manager!
My questions are:
Can I download just MS SQL 7 Enterprise Manager anywhere for a reasonable fee or free?
and
if not, can I continue to use Access 2000 to maintain the SQL 7 upsized DB?
I have access to a SQL 7 server via my ISP Hosting account. I know Enterprise manager comes with the server software, but how can I get a copy of JUST Enterprise Manager?

Is it possible to administer both 6.5 and 7.0 databases from the same SQL Enterprise Manager? I have read that you cannot do this because the 7.0 "plug-in" to the MMC wont work with 6.5 databases.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I would like to know if we can present users to access details database information about the databases on a server through Enterprise Manager.
If you create a SQL login and do NOT give it access to any database, if someone logons on your server with enterprise manager, even though he does not have access to any database, he will still see the list of all database on your servers plus tons of sensitive information like database owner.
Is is possible to limit enterprise manager to only view information about database that the user has access to?
Thanks

How can I force users of Ent Manager 6.5 to enter a name/password when connecting to a server that has been registered? I dont want to use the sa name and password so that anyone could use my workstation to access our servers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know how to turn off or disable the auto discovery for Enterprise Manager. Apparently our Network group is complaining that Enterprise Manager is generating noise on the network, it is not signifcant in volume but they complain it impacts there ability to detect hacking attempts on our network because it causes some false positives. I generally keep Enterprise Manager running because I will always have some manual job running from it and we have so many servers it takes awhile for them to all load when I first fire it up.

Hi,
I have SQL server 2000 client machine on my XP desktop which worked fine
until yesterday.
Yesterday, I tried to set up client access (a tool from IBM to access AS400) unsuccesfully. Since ever, Each time I try to open a table in enterprise manager, I get the following error message
"The query cannot be executed because some files are either missing or not
registered. Run setup again to make sure the required files are registered".
While when I issue a query in analyzer it works fine.
I did that several times without success. Even, I removed the whole SQL 2000
setup, rebooted my machine, ran set up again for client tools which gave the
same result. Also, I re-setup MDAC2.6 SP2 but no way.
Which files are corrupted ?and I don't understand after doing all that,
setup goes smoothly without indicating any errors, but still when you open a
table in enterprise manager, it gives the same error.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
Using MS SQL Server 7. When I go into a table in design view and order by date created, it only orders on the day and not the date (Enterprise Manager) e.g.

should be
11/12/2004
31/12/2003
29/08/1981
but it's this instead
31/12/2003
29/08/1981

MMC cannot open the file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80ToolsBINNSQL Server Enterprise Manager.MSC
This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC Console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have sufficient rights to the file
Note: I had admini rights on PC, and Network, I am able to run Query Analyzer....
I can remote into other boxes and run Ent. Manager also.
