2005 X64 Cluster - Memory Settings

Apr 17, 2008

So I'm in the middle of building SQL Server 2005 on my new cluster hardware. I've got all the goodies this time around -

4x PowerEdge 6800
4x dual core x64 procs in each box
32GB ram in each box
Windows Server 2k3 R2 Enterprise x64 SP2
SQL 2005 Enterprise x64 SP2
Active Active Active Passive cluster (4 boxes, 3 instances)
dedicated data, log, and tempDB 4Gb 15k fiber channel SAN Volumes for each instance


Now, this is the first x64 box I've configured, so I'm looking for some optimization tips for a couple things.

First one's memory. On our 32bit systems, I always added the /PAE switch to the boot.ini file and enable AWE in SQL Server. From what I'm reading, that's no longer needed with the enhanced memory addressing. Is that the case? Is there an MS best practices KB doc in regards to configuration? I can't find one.

Also, should I set anything special pagefile-wise? I know the old mantra is 1.5x system memory, but that would create a 48GB page file. Our current cluster has 6GB of ram dedicated to each instance (2k) and Perfmon tells me it's barely touching the pagefile. I'm thinking of just leaving it default, but I want to know if there is a best practice that I'm missing. Again, I can't find an MS doc that addresses this particular scenario.

SQL 2000 Cluster Memory Settings

Jan 31, 2008

I have an Active/Active/Passive cluster with 64GB RAM on each node running SQL 2000 EE, AWE is enabled as well as the PAE switch, all is dandy with that.

Question:
Should I configure each SQL Instance to have only a max mem usage of 32GB in the event both failover to the same node ? or will the memory allocation be handled without any issue if each node is configured to use 64GB ?

Thanks.

DB Engine :: Defining MAX And MIN Server Memory Settings On 2 Node Cluster

Sep 29, 2015

On first Node A: The server has 16 GB of physical RAM. 
On second Node B: The server has 10 GB of physical RAM.

Now, this being Active Active, Node A can be clustered on failure onto Node B..Now reporting server is configured under these two nodes, with defined MAX and MIN server memory of 12 as MAX and 0 is min IN GB.Now with this setting on SQL whenever the cluster moves, such config make OS goes low on node for 10 GB.I am only left with option of switching this MAX and MIN to a default setting or is there any other alternative such as script which can change this setting accordingly when cluster moves to respective server.

Memory Settings In SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition

Nov 9, 2007

Hi,

I'm having trouble finding the optimum memory settings for SQL Server 2005. I have 4 instances running on a macine with 8 dual-core processors and 18GB of RAM. I have tried the following memory settings so far:

No maximum - one instance used about 12GB of RAM so then the others struggled
Maximum of 4GB each (2GB left for Windows) - meant that 3 instances could be using 1GB each and then another at 4GB and needing more whilst 9GB sat unused.
Minimum of 2GB each - one instance would use up 10GB and then never give any back to the other instances.

I also find that setting a maximum then just causes a high amount of paging. What I would like to do is have each instance use a minimum amount, say 1GB, and then have each instance use a maximum of 13GB (3GB for other 3 instances running at a minimum level and 2GB for Windows). This 13GB should then be released and allocated to another instance when necessary, assuming it is no longer all being used. I do not want paging to occur if an instance reaches 13GB.

How do I go about configuring SQL Server to behave like this? Is it possible?

Thanks.

AWE/Lock Page In Memory Drawbacks? Min/Max Settings, Memory Issues

Oct 11, 2007

I've been researching AWE to determine if we should enable this for our environment.

Currently we have a quad core box with 4 gb of RAM (VMware). OS: Windows 2003 std, SQL Server 2005 std. 3GB is not set but will be as soon as we can perform maintenance on the server.

I have read mixed feedback on AWE, either it works great or grinds you to a hault. I would assume that the grinding to a hault is due to not setting the min/max values correctly or not enabling the lock page in memory setting.

We only have one instance of SQL on the server and this box won't be used for anything else aside from hosting SQL services. We do plan on running SSRS off of this server as well.

1. Will running SSRS and enabling AWE cause me problems? Will I have to reduce the max setting by the SSRS memory usage or will it share and play nice?

2. How do I go about setting the Max value? Should it be less than the physical RAM in the box? Right now its set to the default of 214748364, even if I don't enable AWE should this default value be changed?

3. It seems that even at idle the SQL server holds a lot of memory and the page file grows. If I restart the process in the morning, memory usage in taskmon is at 600mb or so. By the end of the day, its up around 2gb. How can I track down whats causing this, should this even concern me?

4. The lock Page in memory setting worries me. Everything I've read on this seems to give a warning about serious OS and other program support degradation. In some cases to the point where they have to restore the settings on the server before they can bring it back up. What are your thoughts on this.

SQL 2005 (32-bit) Cluster Memory Usage

Mar 6, 2008

We recently did an in-place upgrade of our cluster from SQL 2000 Enterprise to 2005 Enterprise. We are seeing memory utilization on the server that is not expected and wanted to get an idea from others if this is normal. Here is our setup:

32-bit Windows Server 2003 SP1
SQL 2005 SP2, 2-node cluster
16 GB memory on each node
/3GB /PAE switches in the boot.ini file
AWE Enabled, min memory=0, max memory=14000

The strange bit is that in the Task Manager the SQL service is showing as only using 205 MB of memory and the pagefile usage is at 13 GB. This is troublesome since it looks like SQL is using virtual memory instead of physical memory. We recently upgraded the memory from 4 GB to 16 GB, the sql cluster service account was added to the Lock Pages in Memory policy, the boot.ini switches were set and the AWE enabled/max_server_memory script was run before upgrading to 2005. Can anyone confirm either 1) this is normal or 2) how to correct the memory usage?

I have also questioned using the /3GB switch; would it be better to remove that and set the max memory for SQL to 12000?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. If I left off any information that would be helpful, please let me know.

Upgrading Memory In A SQL 2005 2 Node Active/passive Cluster

Sep 14, 2007

Could someone give me an ideal of what it takes to upgrade the memory in my cluster. Is it as easy has upgrading the passive node, switching the nodes, then upgrading the other server. And do I need to re-configure the windows cluster. And will both server need to be down at the same time at any point.

Or is their more to the process? Thanks for any assistance.

btw, I currently have 16mb of RAM in each node.

Memory Settings For 64bit SQL Enterprise

Apr 4, 2008

I have SQL 2005 Enterprise 64bit SP2 on windows 2003 EE 64bit SP2 w/24gig memory. My problem is that it wont use more than 110mb of memory according to task manager processes and performance. I've tried messing with the min and max and rebooting each time I make the change and sill nothing. Currently Ive changed it back to default. The server shows up as 24gig so it is seeing the memory. Any ideas? I thought 64bit was supposed to be better about this kind of thing.

Also, AWE has always been unchecked as this is a 64bit box.

If Max Memory Settings In SQL Including The SSAS

Mar 29, 2008

Hello, I understand that we should use SSMS -> Server Properties -> Memory to put a cap on the SQL server memory usage, therefore it gives some space memory for OS, this is based on the fact if the max memory is not specified, SQL will use whatever available memory and eventually crash the system.

My question is that when a server has SSIS and SSAS services installed along with the SQL service. Would the max memory setting covers the SSIS and SSAS memory usage, or the SSIS and SSAS has to shared the memory with OS?

Thanks,
fshguo.

Dec 25, 2007

Hi all,


We have SQL Server 2005 Entp 32-bit on Windows Server 2003 Entp.Edtion 64-bit. ( Total memory = 16 Gb)


1) So, in this case , do i need to enable AWE Configuration from SQL Server Side ( 32-bit).

And what settings( AWE, /PAE) i should enable on OS (i.e.) on Windows Server 2003 (64-bit) in boot.ini file.
Because right now, i dont see any switches in boot.ini file.

2) And with 16 GB of RAM, what should be the ideal setting for memory ( Min & Max).



Please give some ideas on this.

DB Engine :: MAX And MIN Server Memory Settings For 2012?

Sep 8, 2015

We have a new set up on VM to run an application running 24*7 (migrated from SQL server 2008R2) with below configs:

1. OS- Windows server 2012 Standard 64 bit hosted on Virtual Machine

2. Memory 16 GB and Cores =4 with 2.4GhZ processor

3. SQL server 2012 SP2 , 64 bit Standard edition.

4. Total size of databases as of now 15 GB with biggest being 5 GB.

How should i go around in setting the MAX and MIN server memory settings. I have this set up for many of SQL 2005 and 2008R2 servers, but for 2012 i heard that things has slightly changed. 

How should i start analyzing and setting the right value of this MAX and MIN?

SQL Cluster On IA64 Memory

Aug 15, 2007

I have Two Dell dual Itanium 64 with 16 Gb of Ram each Running a default and a named instance of SQL. The Issue is that I have a bottleneck somewhere and noticed that the memory usage for sqlservr.exe is never over 120000k. I have adjusted till I'm blue in the face to get this memory to expand. My question is does this sound reasonable? Or I should look at other possible bottlenecks?

Dear all,i am planing to implement a Windows 2003 Cluster with MS SQl 2000Enterprise Edition. I have 2 Nodes (4 * XEON MP Processors) with 8 GBRAM per Node.I have the need for 6 SQL instances and would like to implement aactive-active cluster. What do you think it the best way to configurethe memory for the Servers ?I would like to run 3 instanced per Node but can i allocate 7 GB perNode for SQL (and 1 for the Operating System) ?What is happening then i one server fails ?Should i plan to allocate only 3 GB per Server for SQL to make surethat one server can handle the load for all instances if one serverfails ?Should i use the /AWE switch only in the boot.ini to allow more than 4GB Memory ?or should i use the /3 GB switch as well ?Maybe somebody can give me a hint.Best regards,Walter

Recovery :: OS Memory Reservation For Two Node Cluster Having Three Instances

Nov 9, 2015

We are running with a 2 node windows cluster having three SQL instances on it. 

OS: Windows server 2008R2 SP1

Memory Sizing For A SQL 2000 Cluster - Windows 2003 Enterprise SP1

Oct 4, 2007



I am looking for some recommendations for memory sizing and options for a SQL 2000 Cluster. This is a two node cluster built on Windows 2003 ENT SP1 (x86). Both the nodes have the following hardware:

- 4 x Dual Core AMD Processors
- 16 GB Memory
- EMC Shared Disk

We are running six SQL 2000 instances and don't expect each of these instances to use more than 1.7 GB of memory. All these instances are going to support BizTalk 2004 Databases. I already have /PAE enabled on the nodes. I am looking for the following answers:

- Do I need to enable AWE on all the instances even if the instances ? Currently, we don't have that enabled and we have seen some issues regarding excessive paging even when there is physical memory available. The DBAs think that we don't need to enable AWE. I am bit confused on this one.

- We normally run 3 instances on each node and would like size the cluster in such a way that it can take six instances in case of a node failure

Any input will be highly appreciated.

TCP/IP Settings In SQL Server 2005

Mar 17, 2008

I recently installed SQL Server on a machine running Windows Server 2003. Before it was on my desktop. When I checked the TCP/IP settings under configuration manager, I noticed it doesnt have anything for my IP address. I just have a entry for the 127.0.01 loopback address. I know when I had it installed on my desktop there was a entry for my IP address. Is this ok or did something go wrong and it didnt set the IP address? I can still login and access the databases fine from Managament Studio.

Also would it better to have the services run as a network service or a local service?

Optimizing TCP-IP Settings For 2005 Version?

May 12, 2008

I see in several recommendations I found from searching for answers why we were losing the connection to the database. One of these was tweaking the Network Interface Card to ensure it is set to 1024 in the registery. Another was twaeking the TCP-IP setting for windows under

HKey_Local_machineSystemCurrentControlSet02ServicesTCPIPParameters.

Most of these did not mentioned SQL Server 2005. I wondering if someone of more experience with SQL Server 2005 than I can address if this action is required in the newer version.


Thanks for any feedback,

SSRS 2005 VD And IIS Config/settings Problem

Dec 3, 2007

We have SSRS 2005. The install put virtual directories under the website we wanted. We upgraded from Standard to Enterprise, and I put in virtual directories under the default web site so that the upgrade would work just fine. It did.

So, now I have 2 web addresses accessing the same database backend and the same files/folders on the same web server.

Someone added a mapping for .jsx extension and chose select all in the next dialog box and Reporting Services (under that web site) has not worked since. However, the one under the default web site works perfectly well. That leads me to believe that the files are fine, and the connection to the database is fine. I have tried deploying a report and it works.

The error I get from the http://server/reports interface is: Unable to connect to remote server

The error I get from the log files (ReportServerWebApp_) is:
System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

Since it works with the same files and database on the default web site, and not on the website I want it to, I figure its an IIS setting or config problem/issue. I have looked at all the settings in the Properties for both Reports and ReportServer for both websites, but dont see a difference. I have also looked at the settings in the Properties for both web sites and while I know there are a few differences, there should be. (I did try to set them the same just to know, and it still didnt work). I have also deleted and recreated my Virtual Directories under the website I want it to work, with no success.

Anyone have any other suggestions, or links, or anything?

Thanks!

Identity Field Settings Not Copied By Import Wizard (2005)

Feb 26, 2006

It appears that when you use the import/export wizard from within Microsoft SQL Server Managment Studio, the identity attributes of the table being copied are not transferred. For example, say the source table has a column

[ref] [int] IDENTITY ( 1 , 1 ) NOT NULL,

When the import wizard is done the destination table will have a column named ref, but will not be an identity column. The column definition will be

[ref] [int] NOT NULL,

instead. Is there a way to change this behavior somewhere in the gui? When doing the import, the only options seems to be 'Enable Identity Insert', but checking this does not affect the definition of the column.

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Server Min And Max Memory On Cluster

Oct 9, 2015

I have the following SQL FCI configuration:

NODE1 -256GB
INST1 - 64GB min/64GB max
INST2 - 64GB min/64GB max
NODE2 - 256GB
INST3- 64GB min/64GB max
INST4- 64GB min/64GB max

With this configuration and if all instances are running on the same node there will be enough memory for them to run. Knowing that normally i ll have only 2 instances in each node wouldnt it be better the following config?

NODE1 -256GB
INST1 - 64GB min/128GB max
INST2 - 64GB min/128GB max
NODE2 - 256GB
INST3- 64GB min/128GB max
INST4- 64GB min/128GB max

With this configuration and in case all the instances (due to a failure) start running on only 1 node, SQL will adjust all instances to just use Min memory specified?

Upgrading A SQL Server 2000 Cluster To A SQL Server 2005 Cluster

Dec 28, 2007



We're upgrading a SQL Server 2000 cluster (Active/Passive) running on Windows 2000 Server to a SQL Server 2005 Cluster running on Windows Server 2003. We can't purchase new hardware and we have no spare hardware. We also need to move from Windows 2000 Server to Windows 2003 Server at the same time. We want to keep downtime to a bare minimum.

What we were thinking was the following steps... Anyone try this?

1. Break the link between the servers.

2. Install a fresh copy of windows 2003 server on one side along with SQL Server 2005. While this step is running, the active node would still be live on Windows 2000 Server and SQL Server 2000 serving our customers.

3. Restore a copy of a backup from the active production side to the node we're upgrading and at that point we would bring the active node down, switching the active node to be the newly upgraded server.

4. As a final step, the old active node would now have the link to it broken, we would install a fresh copy of windows 2003 server on it and sql server 2005. At this point we would bring it back into the cluster and the cluster would be complete again.

Thoughts?

When Connecting To SQL Server 2005, This Failure May Be Caused By The Fact That Under The Default Settings SQL Server Does Not A

Mar 2, 2008

My environment:

Home PC
Vista Ultimate
SQL Server Developer 2005


I'm about to go absolutely nuts. I've tried so many things including:

1) Of course making sure Remote connections and both TCP/IP and named pipes are enabled for SQL 2005
2) Verified my connection string works. I even tested it in Enterprise Library using the tool and it connects successfully via windows authentication
3) Made sure of course my logged in user is a member of the administrator group and that my user in SQL 2005 logins has db_owner and full rights to the DB I am connecting to. I also made sure the NT AUTHORITY as well as the 3 sql service users have db_owner rights as well as the adminstrator in the SQL Server logins all have db_owner to the DB
4) Started the SQL Server Browser service, SQL Server DB engine, and SQL Server Agent
5) Made sure my site is setup right in IIS 7. I checked the connection string in there as well as it shows up in IIS7 in one of the sections. Using Windows authentication and it is enabled for my site
6) Tried running the .net site using both localhost (IIS) and also tried using the Visual Studio built-in web server. Both give this message still

Server 2003 Running Sql Server 2005. Regional Settings Are Different From All Others We Have; Can We Safely Change It?

Oct 18, 2007

Hi
We have a bunch of servers running server 2000 & 2003 along with many sql server (versions 2000 & 2005) databases in a production environment pulling transactions then doing warehousing & reporting.

An audit has shown up 1 production server using English_US 'mmddyyyy' system date formats, all others being English_Australian 'ddmmyyyy'.

Is it safe to simply change the regional settings on this English_US server to English_Australian or will it mess up the data in our SQL 2005 databases? I've not been able to get a definitive answer from anyone yet!

many thanks in advance; GaryP

When Connecting To SQL Server 2005, This Failure May Be Caused By The Fact That Under The Default Settings SQL Server Does Not Allow Remote Connections

Jan 22, 2008

When my default.aspx page loads I get this error for the connection to my SQL 2005 DB.    An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.
 When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that
under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL
Server) I have already gone to Surface Area Configuration to ensure that Remoting with both Named Pipes or TCP/IP is enabled and it's set to both for remoting.I verified that my local account has access to the DB.Not sure what else to check.

SQL 2005 SP1 On 64-bit Cluster

May 9, 2006

When I run sp1 on the active node of a 64-bit cluster the setup just hangs when it gets to the Database services part. It does not return any errors as mentioned by others in this forum. I also do not have SqlSupport.msi in the add/remove programs (one suggestion on this forum was to uninstall it reinstall). I have let it run for up to 12 hours with no result.

There is no SQL9_Hotfix_KB913090_sqlrun_sql.msp.log file only SQL9_Hotfix_KB913090.log

this is the content

Sql 2005 Cluster

Sep 12, 2006

we want to have an activepassive and active passive cluster.

node a install sql instance 1 failover over to node b

node b install sql instance 2 failover to node a

do I have to setup 2 cluster ? ie. quorum, msdtc etc..

or just one cluster(quorum, ip and name), one msdtc group( as per MS msdtc doc) and 2 san disks (one for node a and one for node b.



is this correct? I have looked and looked for a step by step on setting this up, no where can I find what i need. I downloaded the failover cluster doc from microsoft, book online etc..



thanks
