i am migrating one database from SQL Server 2008 where I have around 20 databases to SQLServer 2012. To migrate the login I was thinking about to use SP_Help <g class="gr_ gr_114 gr-alert gr_spell ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace" data-gr-id="114" id="114">revlogin</g> store procedure but now what I believe is this SP scripts out whole server level login and I don't need all the logins in the server except related to the database that I am migrating to.
I need to move several databases to a new server while retaining the same logins/permissions. Books Online indicates that DTS can move the SQL Server logins, but it sets the passwords to NULL in the process. Is there any way to move the logins and keep all passwords/permissions intact?
Hi, This thread is a reformulation of a prior thread. I created a login 'Network service' at server level in Management Studio express.I use windows authentification.Then i defined an user for my database which is associated to login 'Network service', because the application asp.net uses that account (IIS 6.0). This user received db_read and db_write roles.This works.Now i experimented a little bit and i removed from the logins at server level the login 'Network service'.Result: the application still works..Then i removed the Builtinusers login from the login list at server level.Result: i get the error: "login failed for Network service".I recreated then the login 'Network Service' at server level but not the Builtinusers login.Result: it works again.My conclusion is: one of the two logins must be in the list: Network Service or BuiltinusersIs this right?Why do i get that error when both logins are removed and not only when Network Service is removed?Thanks
We currently have two virtual machines running on Windows Server 2003 together with SQL 2005. These servers are in a cluster and are using multiple physcial RAW disk mappings from shared storage (SAN) for their shared disks within a VMware ESXi 5.1 cluster.I need migrate these SQL servers over to new infrastructure, in a new physical location. I tried using VMware converter to import the active member server in the SQL cluster, but I am receiving VSS errors when running the conversion. I can see that shadow copy is disabled on all the disks on the server.
In one of my environments, I need to grant the ability to view all the logins and agent jobs to an account, but I don't want to give him "sysadmin" or "securityadmin".
When using the script to transfer logins and passwords from one server to another. After doing so... Does the logins and passwords still appear on the server transfering from??? I am doing a parallel install and need to keep the production database logins and passwords still intact. Thanks...
I did a detach on each database/logs. Moved to the exact location on the new server.
HiI need to move a couple of SQL logins to a new machine to support a3rd party application. Problem is the password is embedded in theapplication and we can't see how to change it. Does anyone have amechanism for moving a login to a new machine *without* knowing orchanging the password?TIAChloe
We have a need for getting data from sqlserver DB on premise to the cloud. DB is not encrypted currently, other applications are accessing it but those applications are on premise. Following link talks about encrypted connection, but is it possible to encrypt only one of the port connection. we can add a custom port.URL...
I have a developer who created a DTS package using an NT authenticated ID. Now that we've migrated the SQL Server to another Domain in Active Directory, I am showing the following error for his jobs:
"The job failed. Unable to determine if the owner (DomainUSer) of job EmployeeDump has server access (reason: Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'DomainUSer'. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 8198)).
When I went to check and see what the permissions problem might be, I noticed that all of my NT Authenticated ID are broken after migration - in other words, I can add the Active Directory NT ID's to the SQL Server instance, but I cannot give these ID's permissions to databases because it says they already exist??? I know if I have a sql login that is 'orphaned', I can use "sp_change_users_login" to fix it, but I think I read that this won't work for NT authenticated IDs.
IS there a way to fix this short of dropping ALL of my NT authenticated logins and recreating them????????
Hey. I've a script which gets the SQL usernames with the information I need. Is it possible to migrate the passwords also with this information?
Also, regarding Windows Logins, do i have to worry about their SIDS when migrating to SQL 2005. I'm going to attach SQL 2000 db's onto a 2005SQL instance and these db's alreayd have the usernames assigned in them. Please let me know if there is a way out for the above two questions. thank you.
SELECT 'Create LOGIN [' + loginname + '] with password = ''hello'', sid = ',sid, ', default_database = ' + dbname + ', default_language = ' + language + ',check_expiration=off,check_policy=off' FROM master..syslogins WHERE name NOT IN ('sa') AND isntname = 0
Is it possible to force row level locking in Sql server 2015 before inserting the data and release the same afterwords..find the code for which we would like to impliment the same
The application is running ADO (MDAC) version 2.81.1117.0.
The application gets an recordset created by SQLServer by an select statement. In this case the recordset is empty.
The application adds a record to the recordset by AddNew(). Works fine. But when assigning the first field (smalldatetime in database) I get ADO error -2147217887.
I have inspected the recordset and I found a difference between the working one from SQLServer2000 and the new one from SQLServer2005: The Attributes item for the fields in the recordset has the flag adFldUnknownUpdatable set in the working SQL2000 version but is not set from SQL2005.
The database on SQL2005 is copied from the SQL2000 system and attatched to the SQL2005 system. I Have checket that the compability flag for the database on the SQL2005 system is set to SQL2000 compability.
I have a source sql 2005 with the database collation SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and destination with sql 2012 with the same collation.
But the SQL server llvel collation is different, sql 2005 uses Latin1_General_CI_AI and sql 2012 uses "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS"
Now when i load the data from 2005 for one table to sql 2012 i could see special characters in one column. And i dont see that in the source database. Is there a way to avoid that or is it something we need to manually fix.
SQL2008R2...Have a SPID that started yesterday and contained a command to drop a server audit. This did not finish (after 3hrs) so I killed the SPID. Problem is it's still there (sp_who2) and I think it's now blocking access to viewing editing logins within SSMS as I'm getting "Lock request time out period exceeded. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 1222)" when double clicking a login.Do I need to restart the instance as killing the "alter server" transaction (SPID=62) is not working? Code to show blocking transactions returns this.
I am migrating MS SQL Server 6.5 databases to a new server and wanted to create the data & log devices differently than they are on the old box. My dbcc checks are giving me 2558 errors because my devices weren't built the same size in the same order. I thought if I didn't copy the master, I didn't have to rebuild the database exactly the same. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to rebuild different device sizes and do a successful restore ? Thanks in advance !
I need to move all existing dbs to a new server. One of the database is over 90GB in size. If I plan to use to restore database option, should I restore all user database first, then the system databases(master, msdb) or should I restore the system database first and the user databases second?? Thanks.

i am migrating data and schema from oracle server to sql server., when i try to do the dts it gives me an error saying could not resolve tnsnames.ora. iam not sure what is the problem.
My oracle server host is dbserver.hari.com.edu and its name is Prod (name of the machine)
i tried both it still gives me the same error., but when i install an oracle client on the machine and configure the same it is working great.
My question is, is it necessary to install oracle client to migrate database from oracle to sql server. If not how do i do the same...what is the process to do it. since this is a prodction machine we don't want more of applications running on the same machine.
I want to perform column level and database level encryption/decryption.... Does any body have that code written in C# or VB.NET for AES-128, AES-192, AES-256 algorithms... I have got code for single string... but i want to encrypt/decrypt columns and sometimes the whole database... Can anybody help me out... If you have Store procedure in SQL for the same then also it ll do... Thanks in advance
I just wanted to know what the easiest way would be to migrate a SQL Server 2012 database to Oracle?
Apart from the tables and views, the database also uses a number of stored procedures and functions which will also need to be migrated over onto Oracle.
I guess the problem with generating scripts for the database (right clicking database > tasks > generate scripts) is that the TSQL scripts will not run in Oracle which uses PSQL? Is this correct?
I have also considered using the import/export wizard. Do I need to install a feature to use this to export to Oracle?
Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the right place to seek help. I'm trying to migrate a small sql 7 database to a new server runing sql 2005 server express. is that possible? if anyone has any instructions or point me to the information that i need to get this done. i'm not a dba so any details instructions would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem;
Performing operation...
- Add log for package (Success) - Add task for transferring database objects (Success) - Create package (Success) - Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success) - Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error) Messages * The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard)
When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed;
InnerException-->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 already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ).
Hi I took a Full Backup on Production Server and Restored the Same Database on Testing Server, i am able to see all the Tables Stored Procedure and View except Logins, i am not able to see any logins, there are total 650 Logins under the Database how can i see the logins and how to restore the logins, while i am trying to create any logins it is saying Error Occured login is already existing in the Database..
In using SSIS to migrate data from mainframe to SQL 2005, I had a situation where only group level data was exposed through the ODBC to SSIS, so I pulled this information as varchar on the SQL destination side. Now I would like to break that group into the individual numeric columns I need on SQL Server. However, the positive and negative sign did not convert because it came of character. I can write something to convert the positive signs to positive numbers; however I cannot do the negative because I would need get rid of the leading zeros in order to place the negative sign before the number. Is there anything I could have done to get SSIS to do the conversion like it did for every one-to-one mapping?
I would move a Database to another server. I try to use DTS but I have problems with this process because DB have big tables, I think. I try to use DETACH and ATTACH procedures but logins doesn't export. And more, in new server there are already logins from another DBs.
What's the best way to solve this problem? Please, help Thanks
I am a systems analyst and work with an app that runs against 2 SQL Server DBs. Though I have some familiarity with SQL Server and SQL, I am not a DBA.
The app executable is tied to a Windows service. When we install the app, we run a process that builds 2 dbs to include: Tables, indexes, stored procedures, views and user accounts. SQL Server is set up for mixed mode authentication.
Normally, the dbs run off the local db user accounts which are tied to local logins with the same names. We have a client that wants to remove our standard logins so that they can run on only a Windows login. I know I should be able to tie the db users to a Windows login. And I can do the same for the service.
But I am at a loss as to how to get this done. How do you associate db users with a Windows login? When I have tried sp_change_users_login I get an error that the Windows login does not exist. (Though I have added the Windows account to the DB.)
