I am supporting 2 node cluster sql 2005 servers (Windows 2003 computers). Active and passive cluster.
Right now sql services are running under local system account , as per standard should be run on sql service account.
So please let me know how to change, with out impacting the application
Can i directly change sql services to service account on passive node ?
Please help me anyone on this task.
I have been reading through many postings here, through the MS SQL Server Unleashed book by SAMS, the MS SQL Tech article "Failover clustering for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services" for installing a brand new SQL 2005 2 node cluster.
So far I have not found the definitive answer that I am looking for and that is, what rights does the SQL service account need to work properly? One article states that it needs both Domain Admin permissions and local admin permissions (and this is a domain account by the way) and then another article states that it only needs domain users group permissions and the least amount of privledges possible.
Can anyone please tell me what is correct for installation and running the server? The more I read about this the more confused I get.
Please be patient as I am brand new to SQL.
Thank you very much!
Hello,
I wanted to instal sql server 2005 on our sql 2000 failover cluster.
The first thing i did was deinstal sql 2000.
The installation hangs on the dialog screen configuring components and does not present een error.
If i install the cluster with one node there's no problem.
But if i want to add the second node the installion hangs.
When i go to the second node and stop the scheduled task the installations stops.
Do you have any suggestion
Hello Everyone,
Does SQL Server 2005 has a counterpart to Oracle 10G's Real Application Clusters (RAC)?

after install how can i find which is active node?
how can i findout the virtual name/IP ?

Is anyone running SQL Server 2000 clusters on an IBM SAN (FAStT or ESS800)? Could you shed some light and provide links if any to IBM and/or Microsoft sites on this issues

As I understand it, if I have a 4 CPU box and I buy 4 processor licenses for SQL Server 2005 Standard, I can run 16 instances of SQL Server on that box.
Now given a cluster set up for active/passive I understand that if I license the same way I can have 16 instances on one of the nodes of the cluster. In the event of a failure, the instances can fail over to the "passive" node and the licenses move with them.
So heres the question. Given my two node cluster, each node has 4 CPUs, if I have some of the resources on node 1, and others on node 2, so instances are running on node 1 and node 2, am I on the hook for 8 processor licenses?
Hi,
For our trainign data clustering models show the maximum accuracy.
We want to preset the results to our client. In order to do that we want to present what are the properties of each cluster.
For example for my predictable attribute if Cluster 9 is showing maximum population then I want to show what conditions of attributes make cluster 9 .
What is the way of doing this ?
Thanks,
Vkas
Does anyone know of any issues with using Active/Passive or Active/Active clusters and log shipping. Will log shipping still work if a failover occurs?
Thanks
Hi,
I have a MS Clustering model based on knowledge-area and I want to rename each cluster to the name of the knowledge area. What would be the DMX to rename the cluster?
I have been trying to do something like -
UPDATE [Knowledge Base].Content
SET Node_Caption = [Knowledge Base].[Field]
(Field is the column in the mining structure [Knowledge Base] with the values to be assigned to the Node_Caption)
But this does not work. The DMX query editor on parsing the query says that it reached the end of input.
Can someone help me out?

I am about to move 8 SQL 2000 clusters instances residing on 2 seperate MCS clusters (4 instances each with 2 nodes each active/passive) to one single MCS cluster (2 nodes active/passive). The SQL Cluster VMs will have the same DNS names and IPs, however the MCS VM and nodes will have different names.
The planned method for moving the DBs is just to stop all SQL services copy the system and user MDF and LDF files and then restart SQL. From everything I have read this should be fine. However here are my concerns on a cluster platform:
Will the change in node names on the target cluster be a problem when moving the master DBs over from source SQL VMs? Are the cluster nodes listed somewhere in the Master DB?
A couple of the SQL instance VMs are invovled in transactional replication. If all of the SQL files are copied over and the target VM has the same DNS and IP name, will there be a problem with the transactional replication when SQL is restarted?
Thanks,
Chris
Hi.
I am working on a project and we are starting to spec out our back end database systems. I wish to have multiple SQL Servers in a cluster PLUS failover running fiber against SANS storage arrays to partition the databases.
Has anyone seen any articles on this or know of any sources for support etc. ?

Howdy,
We're interested in putting a SQL 2000 cluster together and want to hear from people who have run SQL Server clusters :
(1) Just how reliable are they in the real world?
(2) Which bits break ( i.e. hardware or OS or SQL Server )
(3) What configuration would you suggest and why?
Any help much appreciated

We are looking to setup an AlwaysOn A/G between two SQL instances across two SQL clusters - one cluster has two nodes the other has three nodes.
Is this possible using WSFC? Does the A/G wizard just handle this?
To all the SQL H/A experts, we were wondering if we could have 3 physical nodes and 2 active/passive clusters architecture setup on a SAN as seen in the image below? http://www.geocities.com/juanlieu/CP_Arch.JPGIn case you cannot see the diagram, it would looks something like this:
active/passive Cluster A ---> physical server A (Win2003/SQL2005) ---> HP EVA SAN ---> physical server B (Win2003/SQL2005) ---> HP EVA SANactive/passive Cluster B ---> physical server B (Win2003/SQL2005) ---> HP EVA SAN ---> physical server C (Win2003/SQL2005) ---> HP EVA SAN
In this setup, I understand that Server B cannot be called upon as the active server at the SAME time by both clusters. question: what would happens if it does, would Server B reject the last cluster that calls it?Appreciated in advance.
Hello all and a happy new year!
I used Microsoft clustering for grouping my data. Even though i already cleaned the data and have no null values i get one cluster with missing values in every attribute. (i set CLUSTER_COUNT=3 and i'm using Scalable k-means algorithm)
Does "missing" mean that the algorithm cannot group that particular tuple in another group so it consider it as missing?
Thank you in advance.
In a response posted Nov 21 (Clustering Dimension), Jamie wrote...
"The only option of using a table-based model as a dimension is to write out the cluster labels and simply make the cluster label as a dimension attribute. You could even append the cluster label to the source data (e.g. the customer table) and not have a seperate dimension, simply a browseable attribute on the dimension of interest"
Jamie, can you provide more information on how to do this? We'd like to have a series of clusters in an existing household dimension. That is, we need multiple occurences of cluster model results over time browsable in the source cube. I've looked at the data source, dimension, and cube created by the data mining model, but I don't see where the case ID (Household Key) and the cluster name could be extracted to update the existing dimension. We're using the cube for the data mining source.
This would also help to fix a recurring problem we have with keeping the linked cube and the source cube metadata in sync. If I make a change to the source cube, say by adding a new measure, the metadata for the linked cube gets out of sync. I've been deleting the data mining dimension, cube, and dsv and them adding them back in using the data mining menu in the model.
We have 2 SQL 2012 servers. Our application has 2 databases. We are creating an AlwaysOn cluster. Is it good to create 2 AlwaysOn clusters to have 1 database primary on one of the servers and the other database primary on the other server?
I have been asked if it is possible to have one database running on one server and the other database on the other server. Is this possible without creating 2 separate AlwaysOn clusters?
Hello.
What kind of criterion is used by MS clustering algorithm to determine the number of clusters when 0 is specified in the algorithm parameters?
The problem is that I find automatically defined cluster number somehow strange, especially when expactation maximization algorithm is used. I tried to "manually" calculate optimal cluster numbers in my models using bayesian information criterion and the one by Akaike and received more understandable results.
Thank you very much in advance.
I have an active passive cluster on my primary Data center in NY and have a DR Active / passive SQL Cluster in TX. These are two separate clusters in the same domain using the same SQL server credentials.Both clusters host an active / passive SQL instance. Lets call it SQLNY(Primary) and SQLTX (DR). I want to enable always On Availability group within the two SQL Instances SQLNY and SQLTX. The listener will be SQLAG which will be used by the Application to connect to the SQL instance. Is there a practical way to implement this? This will not only give me instant fail over within the NY (Primary) but also give me the flexibility to fail over to TX. I am using SQL 2014 Enterprise Edition on both clusters.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to import Access reports using Visual Studio 2005 and Access 2007. SQL Server 2005 with Reporting Services is also installed.

We have a large number of clients attempting to replicate two publications on 2005 Express databases (2 publications subscribed to the one subscriber database) with our 2005 Server (9.00.3042.00 SP2 Standard Edition) and experiencing two significant problems:
1) Users experience the following message:
The Merge Agent failed after detecting that retention-based metadata cleanup has deleted metadata at the Subscriber for changes not yet sent to the Publisher. You must reinitialize the subscription (without upload).
This problem should not apparently occur with SQL Server 2005 (or 2005 Express) instances with SP2 applied. All clients experiencing this problem have SP2 installed as does our Server and the retention period is 30 days. The subscribers have been replicating well under that.
2) Replications never succeed after appearing to replicate/loop around for hours
This issue is the most critical as we have clients who have been installed and re-installed with new instances of SQL Server 2005 Express, new empty databases (on subscriber before snapshot extraction), and using fresh snapshots (less than an few hours old) which cannot successfully replicate.
Interestingly there is at least 1 instance where several computers are subscribed and successfully replicating the same database as another where replication refuses to succeed.
To test we have taken a republished database from another 2005 Server which is working fine and restored it to the same server as the one holding the database with which we are experiencing problems and subscribed to it. This test worked fine and replication of both publications went through fast and repeatedly without showing any signs of problem.
This indicates that the problem is perhaps data related as it appears localised to that database.
Below are two screenshots which may assist.
Screenshot 1 Shows that on the server side the replication attempts look like they are succeeding despite the fact that the subscriber end does not indicate success. Also the history indicates the the subscription has spent all it's time initialising and not merging any changes.
Screenshot 2 Shows a rogue process which has appears on many of the problem child subscribers. It shows a process running with no end time even though the job indicates failure in the message and even though other replication attempts appear to have succeeded after it. This process stays in the history showing that it is running even when I can find no corresponding process for it.
Can anyone suggest a further course of action/further testing/further information required which may assist?
This is extremely urgent and any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Is there any way to measure bandwith usage during merge replication between sql server 2005 and sql server mobile 2005 running on a cradled wm5 mobile device.
Attaching the windows performance monitor to the network connection established over usb would work although I was wondering if there was something specific for this case integrated into Sql server 2005 / sql server mobile 2005 / Sql server management studio / third party tools that i could use ?
thnx,
pdns.

Hello everybody!
I hope that someone could help me.
I have a problem when i start sincronyzing with the emulator of MSVS2005 to SQL2005 in Windows Vista. I have the same program in the emulator, but sincronyzing with windows XP Pro and no problem...
I configure the connection to use the IUSR.
The source code that i use:
repl.InternetUrl = @"http://laptop/SQLMobileIIS/sqlcesa30.dll";
repl.Publisher = @"laptop";
repl.PublisherDatabase = @"database";
repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.NTAuthentication;
repl.Publication = @"Pubdatabase";
repl.Subscriber = @"SQLMobile";
repl.SubscriberConnectionString = @"Data Source='" + nomeFicheiroBD + "';Password='3409'";
The error that returns is:
"Failure to connect to SQLServer with provided connection information. SQL Server does not exist, access is denied because the IIS user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect"
Does anybody knows what i can do?

I am update/inserting records threw a web form in vb.net. I need to insert 'NULL' into my microsoft sql server database. I am not talking about the below line of code where website is the name of my paramater. If i do that it will just place a blank into that field in the database. If i dont enter anything into that textbox I want it to to say NULL in that field. So if I go into the actual table in the SQL Server Management Studio and look at the website field of the recored I just added or updated and did not type anything into the web site textbox it needs to say NULL. I also tried the second line of code but that places a single quote in front and behind NULL. So the field will have the value 'NULL'.
website.value = txtwebsite.text.tostirng
if txtwebsite.text ="" then
website.value ="NULL"
end if
The reason why I need the NULL there is because I bind the website filed to a hyperlink template in a gridview. The actual text of the hyperlink is bound to PAYER which is a name of a insurance payer but the navigateto is bound to the website field. If i do not enter any data into the website field and it stays as NULL, then when my gridview is loaded, payers that dont have a website will not be underlined and user wont have the option to click on them since there is no value for the navigateto. But if i use my form to update/add a payer and leave the website textbox blank in puts a blank into that field in my database and when it loads that new row into the gridview the PAYER is underlined and u can click on it but it will just take u to the web site is unavailable page. So is there anyway to actaull have NULL placed into a filed and not just blank space
I am out of brain cells. I can not figure out how to upgrade instances of sql express to sql 2005 or even add an instance of sql 2005. I have installed/upgraded everything else (SSMS, etc.) to SQL 2005.
I am dazed and confused. I don't even know where to start in explaining what I have tried and done. I have 303 log files going back to 3/27/2007 from various attempts.
Where do I start in figuring this debacle out???
