Change Management Tools
Hi
I'm looking into various technologies that can make our lives easier. I have a number of processes to define, including:
Auto rollback scripting
Deployment to different environments (dev, test, production)Generation of deployment scripts from source control
Tracking deployments (generation of reports detailing exactly what occurred in a deployment)
Rather than try to custom the processes, I've decided to use a technology that already does the above and more.
Can anyone recommend any tools?
I've looked briefly at SQL Farm Combine which looks good. Anyone using this?

SQL Server Management Express Studio Management Tools
I have recently installed the SQL Server Management Studio Express but I do not find Management Tools in order to create scheduled backups and shrinking of the databases. I was under the impression that this should be included in the Management Studio. I use the SQL 2005 Express for smaller customers who run the SQL on a desktop unit. I need a way to backup the data to a server machine for backup purposes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail.

Best MSSQL Management Tools
Hi everyone. I manage 100+ databases spread across the country. When it comes to perform an update or offsite backup, it is a nightmare. I have to repeat the same code and the same process for 100+ times. Is there any tools other than MS Enterprise manager we can use to perform this type of maintenance works in a batch manner? For example, we place a update sql file within the program, and the program does the rest (of course, we predefine the login credential for each databases) Cheers~ gmefmax:angel:

SQL 2005 Management Tools
Hi, I installed sql 2005 dev for testing sharepoint, and the management studio was not installed. Now, i am afraid to try to install it because i am thinking it may uninstall or re-install all sql components (and probably erase existing instances and sharepoint data may be lost. I have installed on an other pc the client tools, but i cannot connect to that instance, and i cannot attach the user databases (i get the 5123 error) Can anyone help me how i can install management services without messing up the sharepoint instance?

SQL Server Management Tools Not Installed
>> I was able to solve this. Read the bottom of the post. I just installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and none of the management tools seem to be there. At least they do not show up in Start>>All Programs>>Microsoft SQL Server 2005. All that shows up is the Configuration Tools menu item. I have been searching through the forum and I have found dozens of other threads about this, but none that seem to actually answer the question or give a solution. Some say to delete everything and start over, others say to review Visual Studio 2005 (which takes something like 4 hours to install, and then you still have to install all of the 3rd party tools, so I don't want to do that unless I just have to), and a few others say to uninstall SQL Server Express and then reinstall SQL Server. However, I believe that I selected to install them both at the same time. Anyway, I just looking for some ideas here to get all of this installed. There seems to be some problem here that a lot of people are having to deal with. Are the Managment Tools disabled by default? It seems that in 2005 a lot of the services are turned off by default so I'm wondering if I have to do something to turn on the Management Tools. Best regards, Greg Rothlander I just uninstalled and reinstalled per some threads on the forum and it all showed up. Apperently if anyone runs into this, just uninstall everything that has to do with Microsoft SQL Server and reinstall.

Installing SQL Server Management Tools
I have been trying for 2 days now to get the SQL Server management tools installed on client machines. I'm starting to think it is not possible to do that the way we used to be able to with previous versions of SQL Server. I have installed 3rd party open source software on my own machine so that I can query the database without logging onto the server directly and would like for my co-workers to be able to do the same. As I mentioned we tried the SQL Server Management studio and all we get is a message saying to uninstall all the beta and Visual Studio *** on our machines. We stripped one machine all the way down to the OS and still kept getting that message so I'm guessing it is some new Windows Vista issue that makes SQL Server 2005 client tools completely incompatible with XP. However, we are not going to bow to Microsoft's evil ways and upgrade to their new OS just to use the SQL Server Studio. If need be I will write my own software to workaround this problem. In the meantime, can anyone recommend some good 3rd party tools that will allow us to query the SQL Server 2005 database on a server and preferably one that does not require all other software be removed first?

Install Of 2005 Management Tools Fails
I have VS2008 installed. Now, I need to install the SQL server Management Tools, because of tasks I have on SQL server instances which are installed on other servers. I guess a lot of developers are in such a situation. You develop on your own machine, but deploy the final database on a production machine.And you happen to be the manager of those databases too (well, I am) Now, it seems impossible to install the neccesary tools as I get messages; The following components that you chose to install are already installed on the machine. To view a report of available options and alternatives click on details (Workstation components, Books Online and development tools 9.2.3042.00) Then on the Details, it says the following, Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Tools Express Edition Reason: Your upgrade is blocked. For more information about upgrade support, see the "Version and Edition Upgrades" and "Hardware and Software Requirements" topics in SQL Server 2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005 Books Online. Build version check: Your upgrade is blocked because the existing component is a later version than the version you are trying to upgrade to. To modify an existing SQL Server component, go to Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel, select the component you would like to modify, and then click Change/Remove. Now, I have no clue of what can be safely removed to allow the installation of the Management Tools. I am afraid that I will end up with a non-working SQL server Express installation which is required for VS2008 What should I do to get these Managment Tools installed on my develop machine?

Installing SQL Server 2005 Management Tools - Setup Crashing Repeatedly
I'm having many many issues installing sql server management tools. i had visual studio 2005 installed first, but uninstalled and sql related things before trying to install sql server management tools again - i also deleted the program files/microsoft sql server/ folder so there are no references. Firstly the system configuration check gives me a warning that the system doesn't meet the recommended hardware requirements - this is wrong... i've got 2.33Ghz dual core + 1gb of ram... I select just management tools + client connectivity to install and click next -> the setup support files/native client/owc11 etc all install fine but workstation components etc fail and the setup log appears to either be empty and not available and MSXML6 fails... after clicking finish the installer appears to crash - : "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup has encountered a problem and needs to close.

SQL Server Express 2008 - Missing Client Tools / Management Studio / Profiler
I downloaded and performed a full install of SQL Server Express 2008 Nov CTP. It was installed on a fresh installation of Windows Vista Enterprise x64. During setup, I checked the 'Client Tools' box which has the description: "Includes management and development tools: SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Profiler, and Database Engine Tuning Advisor" The installation ran fine with no errors. After install I looked for the Management Studio but couldnt find it anywhere. No SQL Server Profiler or Database Tuning Advisor either. The only tool that appears to have installed is the SQL Server Configuration Manager.

Deployed Database Change Management
Our company is moving to SQL 2005 and we need to define how we are going to get updates to our clients. We currently use wise installers and I understand that we would be able to shell into sqlcmd in order to run the update scripts. 1. How does sqlcmd handle errors? If a script fails and is rolled back (we are gonna have transactions) how can we notify the installer?2. What is the best practice for scripting changes to a database for deploying on a customers site? Is each change to the schema or objects scripted and if so how is this managed? How does the installer then use these scripts in transactions? Is it possible to have a script call a separate script and if so how can they be aware of failure for rollback?3. Are there any tools that automates the process and makes it easy for management? Thanks B

Using SQL Server Management Studio Tools To Manage Dbs On SQL Server Express Edition
Hopefully a simple question: Is it possible to use Maintenance Plans created on SQL Server Management Studio (installed as part of an instance of SQL Server 2005 Standard Ed.) to back up databases running on an instance of SQL Server Express Edition with Advanced Services? I don't need directions, just whether or not it is permitted. I've been able to create the plans including establishing connections to from SSMS to the the SQL Express instance, but they keep erroring out. I just need to know if this is actually permitted since Maintenance Plans are not available on Management Studio Express Edition. Thank you in advance for your help.

&&"The Feature(s) Specified Are Not Valid For This Edition Of SQL Server&&" Error When Installing Management Tools On Win 2003 X64
I've successfully installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on an Enterprise edition of Windows Server 2003 x64. I'm now (and also tried & failed during the install of the database engine) attempting to install the "Management Tools" component on the same server. However, in all my attempts to do so, I receive the following error: --- The feature(s) specified are not valid for this edition of SQL Server --- The message box does not list the features that are not valid but since the only item I've selected to install is the "Management Tools" option under "Client Components" it obviously points to something with that. Am I missing something or are the Management Tools not supported in my config - most notably SQL Server 2005 Standard edition running on Windows Server 2003 x64?

SQL Server 8 And SQL Server 2005 Management Tools In Consistencies
I have been investigating this issue and here is what I have found, when using SQL Server 8 Query Analyzer the results show that for example xp_regread has Execute permissions granted to €˜public€™ role. When checking the Same using the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio the results show that there are no Execute permissions granted to €˜Public€™ Role. So the following Query doesn't return any results on Management Studio SQL Server 2005: SELECT sysusers.name , Status = CASE protecttype WHEN 204 THEN 'GRANT_W_GRANT' WHEN 205 THEN 'GRANT' WHEN 206 THEN 'REVOKE' ELSE 'Unknown' END , Permission = CASE action WHEN 193 THEN 'SELECT' WHEN 195 THEN 'INSERT' WHEN 196 THEN 'DELETE' WHEN 197 THEN 'UPDATE' WHEN 26 THEN 'REFERENCE' WHEN 224 THEN 'EXECUTE' ELSE 'Unknown' END , sysobjects.name FROM sysprotects, sysobjects, sysusers WHERE sysobjects.id = sysprotects.id AND sysprotects.action IN (193, 195, 196, 197, 224, 26) AND sysprotects.uid = sysusers.uid AND sysusers.name = 'public' AND (sysobjects.name like '%xp_%' OR sysobjects.name like '%sp_OA%') Where as running the Same Query in SQL Server 8.0 Query Analyzer will return results, saying there are a few extended procs available to Public for Execute. Do you know whats going on here? Thanks!

Backup Strategy - SQL2005 Tools Versus 3rd Party Tools
I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise under Windows 2003 x64 Enterprise. My current backup strategy uses T-SQL jobs run by SQL Agent (writes out *.bak files) and then I have an Integration Services job that copies the *.bak files to our NAS device. I have performed a restore without issue. The jobs are all automated every four hours via SQL Agent. Is this a sound strategy or are there additional benefits to using 3rd party tools? If so, what are the advantages and which tool provides them?

Design Tools / Sql Server Mgt Tools Cause Login Fail
Login failed for user 'TOSHIBA-USERASPNET' I know that the file persmission for the web application have to include aspnet, so i keep resetting the folder permission for aspnet in file manager, but the login failed keeps coming back every day or two problem is after working with VS05 Pro, SQL Server Management Studio CTP, somehow the aspnet persmission get changed, use alot of sqldatasource wizards and often there is a conflict/hang between the datasource wizard and the need to have the mdf in a dettached state within VS server explorer, not sure but the procedure to fix this seems to be to reboot, detach and re-attach the mdf in the Sql server Studio tool, re-apply the aspnet file permission on the web app folders (wonder should i be doing this in IIS instead), make sure the mdf within server explorer is detached, the it works anyway, getting real tired of the resulting delays and design time derailment, clues greatly appreciated, thanks sometimes i can use View in Browser when in VS05 form view and i wont get the aspnet folder permission error and other times i do. last thing, is it a bad idea to give aspnet full permission for the entire web applicaiton??

Comparing Log Tools
I've only ever used built in SQL Server tools but have been looking atlog tools. I looked at Log Explorer 4.02 from lumigent.com and was veryimpressed with what I saw. The prices tag per instance was a bit heftyI felt though. I've been over to LogPI.com and am reading some of the"features" I've yet to d/l the evaluation demo. The price is over halfthat of Log Explorer (I'm converting to local currency on the flyhere).Questions.... logPI any good? Log Explorer worth the extra $?Anyone using either and have any opinions to share?Are 3rd party tools worthwhile?Unrelated but for my info.... does/will Yukon come with a similar builtin tool? I haven't had a chance to look at Yukon yet.CheersJay
