Recovery :: Cannot Create Listener For High Availability Group Of AlwaysOn On Cluster Environment
May 27, 2015
I have getting issues when i am creating listener for always On . Error shown as below
Can not bring the Windows server fail over cluster (WSFC) resources online. (Error Code 5942). The WSFC service may not be running or may not be accessible in its currents states, or the WSFC resources may not be in a state that could accept the request.
For information about this error code see "system error code" in windows development documentation
The attempt to create network name and IP address for the listener is failed. The WSFC service may not be running or may not be accessible in its currents states or the value provide for the network name and IP address may be incorrect. Check the state of the WSFC cluster and validate network name and IP address with network administrator. (Microsoft SQL Server error 41066) ...

We have a requirement to build SQL environment which will give us local high availability and disaster recovery to second site. We have two sites- Site A & Site B. We are planning to have two nodes at Site A and 2 nodes at Site B. All four nodes will be part of same Windows failover cluster. We will build two SQL Cluster, InstanceA will be clustered between the nodes at Site A Server and InstanceB will be clustered between the nodes at Site B, we will enable Always On Between the InstanceA and InstanceB and will be primary owner where data will be written on InstanceA and will be replicated to InstaceB. URL....Now we want we will have instanceC on the Site B and data will be writen from the application available on Site B, will be replicated to the instance on the Site A as replica.

I have MasterDataServices installed on a server and the database is in an AlwaysOn Availability Group.The MDM front end currently is set up incorrectly and is referencing NodeA (primary node) for its database.I want to fix this but im unsure if i should:
-point the MDM front end to the cluster name, so it wont matter what server the databsae is on?
-create an Availability Group Listner, which would also decoupple the database referenced from a particular server.

I am setting up a new pair of SQL 2014 enterprise servers in HA using Availability Groups. One of the servers is located here in our local datacenter (10.0.1.x) and the other SQL server is in our remote datacenter(172.16.1.x). I was able to setup the Windows Failover Custer without much issue. I setup the AG but when I try to setup the listener. I get the following error. I have setup an IP for both networks on the listener. I have confirmed that there is not any DNS records created for AG listener name. But I still get this error.

We are rolling out the use of Availability Group listeners to our SQL Server 2012 Environment which has a 2 node multi-subnet cluster. The Primary is R/W and the Secondary is a non-readable node that would be manually failed over to in a DR scenario
I have set up the AGL and asked the sysadmins to create a DNS record in both subnets with fixed IP's.
The issue I have having is that when I ask the app developers to connect to the databases using the AGL it is totally random whether the AGL resolves to the Primary or DR node - as a result that are having problems getting their apps to connect.
I was thinking of asking the sys admins to remove the DNS record in the DR subnet and then add it back in should we need to fail over - but I was thinking there must be a better way.

I ran into a Kerberos authentication issue because of a missing AOAG SPN. Some of the tickets that granted me access to the nodes of the AOAG cluster were using the encryption type that I would expect. However, the MSSQLSvc SPNs were not using what I would expect!
klist
#XX> Client Somebody@somedomain.com
Server: RPCSS/MySQLServer@somedomain.com
KerbTicket Encryption Type: AES-256-CTS-HMAC-SHA1-96
#XX> Client Somebody@somedomain.com
Server: MSSQLSvc/MySQLServer@somedomain.com
KerbTicket Encryption Type: RSADSI RC4-HMAC(NT)
#XX> Client Somebody@somedomain.com
Server: MSSQLSvc/MyAOAGListener@somedomain.com
KerbTicket Encryption Type: RSADSI RC4-HMAC(NT)
I can't seem to figure out what the next step should be, and the infrastructure admins are stumped as well. How to proceed?

In our(my company) current design we want to switch from failover clustering to Always On as high availibility solution.
I am currently testing the availiblity Group Listener function and have two questions regarding this.
First of all, is it possible to connect to a a listener by just using its "name" instead of "name,port", it is for our users very inconvenient to start using ports. If this is possible, where can I find information on how to configure this?
Second, is it possible to use the Availiblity Group Listener as loadbalancer or in combination with a loadbalancer to split the users over two or more nodes?*note we don't use azure.

I have a two node HA Always on group using a Listener. I would like to force a certain AD group to always be forced to the secondry node as they would only ever need to run select statements. If there an easy way to do this without using logon triggers?

I came across an issue while migrating from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012 and using AlwaysOn Group. For some strange reason, when ever i connect to the Listener name for each AlwaysOn group, it list all the databases which is on the SQL instance, so i would be able to see databases that is not part of that Availability Group. I am not using default port, so have to put the port after the Name to connect and both Instance and Listener are using different port.
Testing the fail over works fine too, when i perform a manual failover, i can connect to any of the databases in the group from my application with no problem.
Considering that the Listener Port is different to the port which the instance is using?

Environment: SQL Server 2014 on Windows Server 2012 R2.
We have our availability group configured and working. However, when we try to connect to the AG listener from a remote server, we have to use the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) to connect. We'd like to be able to connect just using the host name. Interestingly, ping actually resolves the IP correctly for either.

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.

I have a situation where I have two servers in SQL Server 2012 R2 AlwaysOn Availability Group. One is primary and the other one being secondary. I am only running SharePoint Database on it.I have run out of space on the primary server and about to run out of space at the secondary server. I have tried shrinking database transaction log files, but it returns an error that it cannot be shrunk as the database is in the AlwaysOn Availability Group.
Questions:
1. Several forums suggest that databases need to taken out of AlwaysOn Availability Group in order for the shrinking to work properply?
2. Would it have any impact on the database if it is taken out of availability group and then added back?

I'm just starting to work with AlwaysOn Availability and WSFC.
I have in my environment (in Azure) a DC, WSFC and to SQL instances, so I have 3 nodes in my Failover Cluster:
WSFC
SQL1
SQL2
If I simulate failure by shutting down one of the SQL boxes my Availability group seamlessly fails over to the other SQL instance - which is great.
However, I'm starting to look into the workings of the Quorum, my envt has the default settings and when I shutdown both of my SQL servers I expected the Cluster itself to go offline as 2 out of the 3 votes will be negative, but the Cluster is still up - Screenshot below when SQL1 and SQL2 are shutdown:
Going through the Wizard (but not changing anything) it shows following config:

I've been asked to look into the possibility of using SQL Server in a high availability environment. We have a few web based applications that use SQL Server back end DBs. What we are looking into is whether we can use multiple instances (on multiple physical servers) of SQL Server using some type of clustering/load balancing. I haven't worked with SQL Replication before, so I'm not even sure where to start in exploring the possible avenues we can explore.
Can anyone push me in the right direction? Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Bill

We are trying to build HA and DR environment, combining AG and FCI. So we have 3 servers added to a cluster, 2 of them sharing the same storage and working as ACTIVE-PASSIVE cluster instance. The other server has a stand alone instance with its local storage, with the same drivers letters as the cluster instance.
Between the Active FCI and the Stand Alone, we set up an Availability Group. They are running fine, except by the listener. When the stand alone instance owns the Primary Replica, I am able to access the SQL Server instance by the listener, but when the Primary Replica is owned by the FCI, I can't reach the database by the listener (name or IP).
I've opened the same ports in both servers, it hasn't worked though.

I think theres something I'm missing about AG listeners. My test config is 1 SharePoint WFE & 2 SQL servers configured in an AAG.WFE, SQL1 & SQL2 servers are all on the same subnet.On the WFE, I configured an alias called SP15 to be used for the SQL servers. If I failover from SQL1 to SQL2 I just need to change where the alias is pointing on the WFE. So why do I need a listener? This works fine, albeit manually.I have read on some posts that an automatic failover process is possible. How can I add a 2nd IP address to the listener when both SQL servers are on the same subnet? The GUI doesn't seem to allow this.

When I fail an availability group between subnets, I am finding that the DNS entry in DNS is staying. So what happens is the Availablity Group listener has 2 records in DNS, one for each IP. This causes the App to timeout at times, since DNS will return either of the two IP's.

We are looking at going down the High Availability Always On route. However we have some concerns around the lack of support for MSDTC. In short we are concerned that developers may introduce functionality either on purpose or by mistake that uses the or escalates the Query’s to the MSTDTC. As this could result in database splitting.
Understand that this will be a moot point in SQL 2016 but for 20122014 is it possible to disable the MSDTC to protect against this and run High Availability Always On. ? Does it just need to be disabled on the SQL Server or does it need to be done on the application server ?

I have set up a couple of servers in a SQL 2012 AlwaysOn Availability Group (non FCI). I have also configured a Listener which enables SQL clients to connect to the server currently servicing the database, as expected.
I would also like non SQL clients to be able to connect to the server currently hosting the database so that they can run scripts sitting in a share. I don't have a shared disk so just have a directory share on each server with the same scripts in each directory.
I am able to ping and RDP to the listener IP address/name and end up on the correct server but am unable to connect to the share ListenerNameShare. Is that actually supported? If it is, any thoughts on what I need to do to get it going. If it isn't what other options do I have?

We have a SQLServer 2012 Always-On Availability (AAG) Primary and Secondary Node installation/environments. On the Primary node, we have some databases that have the TRUSTWORTHY option enabled (Set to ON). But when the databases are synched/added to the AAG the databases loose the TRUSTWORTHY property and are reset to OFF on the Secondary Node.Because of this,When the instance fails over to the Secondary Node the applications that were working don’t work anymore.

Hello,
Does any one know, any software out there that can provide a solid failover / cluster / high availability solution for SQL Server 2000 Databases.
I have tried Incepto but it requires an extra column in every single table that involves in Replication and its not gonna work
So Please advise.
Thanks,

Discovered that a geo-spatial AlwaysOn HA database (1 of 4) was not synchronizing as at a point in time earlier in the day. Suspend Data Movement appears to be working perpetually without finishing. The SQL Server services is in a Pending Changes state after an attempt to restart it from SQL Configuration Manager. The Cluster Dashboard says it is in a Not Synchronizing state, with only the one database in question having a yellow triangle, all 3 others show green.
The warning for the cluster is:At least one availability database on this availability replica has an unhealthy data synchronization state. If this is an asynchronous-commit availability replica, all availability databases should be in the SYNCHRONIZING state. If this is a synchronous-commit availability replica, all availability databases should be in the SYNCHRONIZED state. There is no abnormal data movement from the primary to the seconday.The warnings for the unhealthy database are:
The data synchronization state of this availability database is unhealthy. On an asynchronous-commit availability replica, every availability database should be in the SYNCHRONIZING state. On a synchronous-commit replica, every availability database should be in the SYNCHRONIZED state.Either a database administrator or the system has suspended data synchronization on this availability database.So how to get this database back to synchronizing state?

I setup an availability Group. (Only 2 servers - Primary And secondary) -- 21 , 22
I also define an listener . IP .. 23
1- In First step I connected To Listener (23) And in a while I inserted A record to a table .
While 1=1
insert into Tbl_T1(f1,f2) Values (1,2)
2- in second, I Stop the primary .
- I expected this while whitout disconnect, continue.
3- The while code stopped whit this message :
Msg 64, Level 20, State 0, Line 0 A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - The specified network name is no longer available.)
4- I execute again the script, And it worked in new primary.
My questions :
1- is the listener disconnected between switched primary and secondary ? OR have we data loss between switching?
2- I did some huge update on Primary that fill the Log fiel space. And in last Update I got this error :
Msg 9002, Level 17, State 2, Line 27
The transaction log for database 'Your_DB' is full due to 'LOG_BACKUP'.
Is this (Fill All space) a reason to switch primary? Or not ?
