Does MSDTC auto-install with the plain vanilla version of SQL Enterprise? Or do I have to install it later?Do you know of any links that reference specifically SQL 2012 stand-alone server installs of MSDTC?
View 0 Replieshow I can set up HADR between two stand alone servers? Is it even possible to set up WSFC between these two servers?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have setup a trigger to update records on a linked server, the link works fine and I can query tables on the remote server. However when my trigger activates I get the following error
The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider SQLNCLI for linked server "NHS" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
OLE DB provider SQLNCLI for linked server "NHS" returned message
"No transaction is active"
I've followed a microsoft KB article and installed MSDTC on both servers, what else do I need to do?
Thanks
Is there any way to set up name resolution for DTC when there are two servers with the same name? I have three servers - two production systems named "SQL" and an archive system "DMART". I want to run DTC procedures to archive data from both SQL's to the DMART. Is there any way to set up the DMART so it can properly resolve the names from each of the SQL's? They are on separate networks, but unfortunately have the same NetBIOS name.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe are going to install a SQL Server 2012 Ent. Edition two node (Active/Passive) cluster. Only one instance. Issue is, a separate shared storage is not provision for MSDTC.
1. Is it mandatory to configure MSDTC for a single SQL 2012 instance ?
2. Can we use one of the shared drives (Data/log/bkp/temp) for configuring MSDTC ?
More often than not, I typically don't touch DTC on clusters anymore; however on a project where the vendor states that it's required. So a couple things here.
1) Do you really need DTC per instance or one for all?
2) Should DTC be in its own resource group or within the instance's group?
2a) If in it's own resource group, how do you tie an instance to an outside resource group? tmMappingSet right?
I have 2 server PROD n DR server all the PROD server DB is synched to DR server through log shipping. Now to chk whether the DR server is working or not in case of any disaster we shut down the PROD server now all the app request is handled by DR server,it is working fine. For 1 week we work in DR server now its time to move back to PROD server so that all the 1 week data in DR server should be replicate back to PROD server. Log shipping is deleted once the DR Server is up. What r the options other than Backup? It is SQL 2012

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed SQL Server on Server A. I have installed Integration Services on Server B.I found that you need to addto the integrations services MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml file the server for the database if you want to use MSDB package store. The issue I have now is how do I execute the jobs on the Integration Server. I dont want them to execute on the SQL Server. Is there a way to configure the SQL Server Agent jobs to execute the package on the other server? Do you have to setup windows scheduled tasks or some other tool to execute command line packages on the IS server?
I'm looking for any info on segregating these roles but still using the MSDB store for pacakages. I don't want SQL server installed on the IS server or IS on the SQL Server. I want the Integration Services server to do all processing... not database level obviously but flat file reads, web service calls, data manipulaiton, custom code, etc and just pass the input/output of data to the SQL server for storage or retrieval to offload the workload and segregreate responsibilities.
Scenerio : To keep a very large system running optimally in a VM cluster, Take PR01 and make PR02, PR03, PR04. Distribute the 45 databases and 9T+ of disk across multiple VM guest.
Each PR## is a SQL Server 2012 Enterprise guest on a VM 5.1 cluster.
So instead of PR01 needed 16 core and 128g of memory, each one will have 4 core and 32g of memory. Making VM HA more manageable. (yes, DRS rules will apply). Also provides more HBA paths and distributes i/o over more physical disk on the SAN.
Instead of a connection string having to know PR01.dbo.UserDB01, PR02.dbo.UserDB03, ect the connection would be PRDB.dbo.UserDB01. That way if needed 1) UserDB can be moved to any of the PR## 2) new PR05, PR06 can be added as needed. The end user and processes are not allowed to touch system databases, no PR## will have a user DB called the same name.
There are seperate VM guests on other VM clusters and Citrix servers that need access to PRDB. As things expand and move around, none of the connection strings need to be changed.
I am looking into RadWare and modifing level 7 information, but that is iffy and $$$$$$.
I've just restored a DB from one server to another. Part of the DB is an assembly used in a Function that unencrypts some data held in a Varbinary(Max) column.
When I execute it on the original server it works fine across all rows of the table, when I execute it against the new server it fails because it's seeing dates in MM/DD/YYYY format, it works if the day of the month is less than 13, but obviously the date would be wrong!
Setting the DATEFORMAT to MDY prior to executing the function has no effect either.
It's the same DLL in the same location, the SQL Server settings as returned by DBCC USEROPTIONS() are identical.
The SQL Server editions and Window OS are the same

I created a maintenance plan with full user database backups, backup files cleanup, and database shrink.
I did it in SSMS and it also created "Reporting Task for subplan-{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}".
It works fine in the development server where I created the plan. I imported the same into other environments test, stage, and prod. I did use BIDS to change the connection string manual "Local server connection". The job runs fine in other environments but it fails at the end where the "Reporting Task for subplan" is executed. I looked at the dtsx file codes and I could not find anything wrong.
It seems to be a bug at the Microsoft side.
So I have 2 servers S1 & S2.
Database Group 1 = L1 with Primary S1 and Secondary S2
Database Group 2 = L2 with Primary S2 and Secondary S1
For 99% of the time the 2 groups of databases are not related. For the 1 procedure that does move data from L1 to L2 something like
Update L2.DB.Owner.Table
set flag = 1
Whare a = 0
On S1 I have a linkedServer with connection to L2.
If I have a failover I cannot have L2 on S2 as they are essentially the same server.
How to I use the 2 groups hand in hand.
Is it possible to use registered servers feature in clustered environment and with different versions of Sql server like 2012 & 2014.

Right now i have separate servers for OLTP, SSAS, and SSIS, and for OTP have Development, Test, and production environments. Im considering combining the SSIS and SSAS services into additional instances on each environment servers.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat happens when an automatic failover occurs, in a two server AlwaysOn Availability Group configuration, where the secondary replica is configured as read-only?
Will it only allow read-only connections, or will it become read-write and can accept INSERT, UPDATES and DELETES when assigned the new role as Primary?
Is it correct that adding a third server/node, that just acts as passive and should be used for automatic failover, to support true HADR, would NOT need another license .. and that licenses would only be required for the previous Primary and Secondary (Read-Only) replicas?
I have a HA Listener which is visible and can be connected to, it has a read only secondary on a different subnet so when connecting to it we use the applicationintent = readonly and multisubnetfailover = true.
Trying to connect it as a linked server is giving me problems. I tried putting the extra info into the provider string but keep getting the failure to initialise error. I am trying to link SQL2012 to a 2012 HA group but will also need to connect from a sql2008 server as well
I know now that AlwaysOn feature HAS to be installed/configured on a Windows Clustering environment, BUT the secondary replicas, like the Disaster recovery replica residing in a different Data Center HAS to be also in a Windows Clustering environment or can it reside on a SINGLE SQL Server INSTANCE?.

In the following, can anyone tell me what RTM Stands for?
Thanks

""Transfer Manager is not available in B3 but will be for RTM.""
When I check my product level of the SQL server 2005, it says it is "RTM."
What does RTM stand for?
Is this the first release before SP1 and SP2?
What Does the "SQL" Stand for? I am just starting to teach myself Visual Studio Programing and some other applications. I can build any computer system that is out there and I have; So I think it is now time for me to study modern programing.
I started waching the Visual LESSONS, provided by Microsoft and I must say "Programing has come a long way since Micosoft (BASICA) and (DOS)"..... I am very enthusiastic about the new wave Software laguages....
Computing has been my hobby as well as a outstanding educational tool, I feel that what makes it so great is that you can spend all you life working or playing with them and NEVER reach and end.... So as a retired Machine and ToolMaker I will lean a new field at my own pace.... And Who Knows????????????

Does anyone know what aspnet_regsql.exe requires to run stand-alone? I have to apply the .NET 2.0 Management/Role API to a sql2000 database on a machine that does not have the .net 2.0 framework installed.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHere is the scenario:
We have an existing production non clustered SQL 2000 server instance that we need to migrate to a new clustered SQL 2000 server instance. We need to accomplish this without affecting the FQDN that applications use to call this server. I found this article on a solution to rename the server after an xcopy of the entire db structure. Here is the link http://vyaskn.tripod.com/moving_sql_server.htm. The other issue that we are trying to resolve is the time it takes for the snapshots of replication to run (in our case almost a full day). That is why this approach looked like it may be a good solution for us.
Here is the question:
Is it possible to move our existing database to a new clustered environment without having to change the FQDN that other applications use to access this database and without having to reinitialize replication?
Can I have warm stand by database on SQL 2000 Server.The source server will be SQL 7.0.
In another words can i shipp transaction logs from SQL 7.0 and make Warm stand by on SQL 2000 with SQL 7.0 full and transaction log backups
Thanks
