Where can i find more information on the table definitions? I am trying to understand the definition of User.AuthType & User.UserType. There should be some sort of documentation somewhere.
When I add a user to a report or folder it will assign it to UserType = 1, AuthType = 3. I have no idea what that means.
Any ideas?
I was wondering if there is an easy way to get a database schema out of a MS SQL 7 database indicating specs on each field (datatype,length,table it resides in, whether it allows nulls, default values, primary keys, foreign keys, etc.)

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am currently investigating the best way to handle partition swapping where the partition scheme is built on several file groups. In order to swap partitions, both partitions need to be on the same file group. In addition, the file groups and partitions are automatically updated once a month meaning that there is a scheduled job that adds a new file group, file group files, and updates the related partition objects.If I am forced to create a new non-partition table on the same file group as the partition of the target table, what would be the best way to create the target table without hard coding the full table definition and clustered index?

Hi,
Is there a way of uploading column definitions from the Flat File Connection Manager into a SQL Server table definition. Since I have over a dozen data sources to process each with around 200 columns and of course like many BI techies I have little immediate influence over the structure of these flat files. I just know that these data sources are business critical.
Judging by looking at similar threads I can't be the only one who would greatly benefit from being able to upload column definitions from the Flat File Connection Manager into a SQL Server table definition as opposed to doing this manually.
Thanks in advance,
Kieran.

Any help would be appreciated:
System 2003 Server IIS6 and Sql2005 enterprise all housed on Virtual Server. all housed locally.
Hello!
Is it possible to make reporting services use several IIS instances which share one common ReportServer database?
Thanks.
I'm working on an application for a client. The application is distributed to 100 mobile (SQLExpress SP2 w/ Advanced Services) users via the web, and uses merge replication to sync data back to corporate with Web Synchronization.
All of this works great. No problems at all.
The client now wishes to use the Reporting Services component of SQL to deploy reports, rather than building them into the application with Crystal Reports. The rationale is it will require less work (probably true to some degree) and it will make updates easier since each time they add a report, it will not require regenerating an entire binary image of the application for users to download.
Naturally, the client asks me if there is a way to use the same replication technology to simply build the reports in-house against an internal ReportServer database, and then replicate the contents of that database down to those 100 clients with the same merge replication -- except, making it a "one way" subscription, with no updates sent back to the server.
I'm wondering if anyone has attempted to do something along these lines.. Is it possible to use SQL Server replication technology to replicate the Reporting Services database down to mobile clients?
Or... is there some other mechanism I should be investigating that will allow me to deploy and update roughly 200 reports to 100 mobile clients on a regular basis?
Thoughts from other users would be appreciated.
I've tried using replication for the past few days, but have had no success. I have created a publication and subscription, have managed to pull the data down and build the local database, but when I do so, Reporting Services immediately breaks. I've even attempted to limit the data I pull down to simply the Catalog, Datasource, and Chunk tables (eliminating what appears to be the other tables that contain site-specific configuration data), with no success.
If anyone has tried something similar, or has managed a similar application, feedback would be appreciated.

In my shop we hired a contractor who build our SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services reports on his laptop. After a tiff between him and our manager, he left with the laptop and we no longer have the source code for these reports. We have backups, but not the latest.
These reports ARE deployed to our production server, but I need to know if it's possible to reconstruct the RDL for the reports from the database contents. I understand that the report contents are encrypted and I'm guessing the RDL is in the Catalog.Content column.
Is there a way to recover the RDL for deployed reports or do we have to resort to the legal system?
Hi,
I have a report deployed and working. Now I need to change it but I lost the source (RDL).
Can I get the RDL back from the reportServer database? How?
Help is really appreciated

Hi everybody,
Our SRS reporting security model had to be designed so that the access is by individual report basis and by user. I cannot give access to individual reports based on windows AD group. Because everybody in that group does not need to have access to a particular report. Two people from one AD group needs access to say Report1. Only one person need to have access to Report2 etc.... Creating lot of AD groups for the security is also not advisable.
Right now I can tell right away users having access to a particular report as the number of reports and the users is small. But I want to design a report that can give me a list of users who have access to a specific report.
How do I query the reportserver database to get this information. I mean is this information saved in any of the tables?
Can you please give any info that you know of such information?
Thank you in advance for all your help,
Is it possible to copy a reportserver database from one sql server to another without problems?
Has anyone done this?
BACKGROUND:
When SQL Server 2005 w/ SSRS2005 was installed, a database named "ReportServer" was created by the system. I use the tables in this database to generate audit/statistical reports primarily hitting the dbo.ExecutionLog & dbo.Subscriptions tables for analyzing server activity.
QUESTION:
Can I modify the tables in the system built "ReportServer" database? Or, will RS stop working? Also, if i modify the tables will it prevent an update?
DETAILS:
As for the Subscriptions table, I want to add the Field "LastRunTime" as a PK so all the history will be storeded. Curently, this table only stores the last subscription that was sent and gets over written when a that subscription is sent out again. Or, is there another way to store all history?
As for the ExecutionLog table, it only stores data for 60 days. I want to store all history. Is this possible?
All comments & suggestions are welcome & I look forward to all your respoonces!

Hi!
I am in the process of installing and configuring Reporting Services and have run across a problem... I created a domain user to run the service, configured the virtual directories and created the database using this domain user. However when I browse to http://localhost/Reports I get the following error:
The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) Get Online Help
Cannot open database "ReportingServices" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'DOMAINuser'.
This is totally weird, since I've given the user every possible right in SQL Management Studio... I even tried giving it Administrator rights, to no effect. I can do a remote dekstop connection to the machine with this user and connect to the SQL server using the Management Studio and windows authentication just fine... Something I've missed?
When I try the open the report file, I got the following error message. Database 'ReportServer$SQLExpressTempDB' cannot be opened due to inaccessible files or insufficient memory or disk space. See the SQL Server errorlog for details. Anyony have ideas to fix this error?

After installing SP2 for SQL2005, My boss has found new reports when looking for database information. Specifically, the new Reports option when right clicking on a database.

Can anyone help us understand the time length for the numbers shown under #User Seeks, #User Scans, #User Updates, Last User Seek Time, Last User Scan Time, etc..?
We are unsure if these are daily, or from the last backup, or for uptime since last restart, or collected from the inception of the database.

Other than the error log is there an easy way to find the sort order and

is there a good reference to tell you what these numbers mean.

Hi All,
In SQL Server 7, we had the option of opening a previously saved trace template and running it inorder to run a previously saved trace defintion repeatedly.
File > Open > Trace Definition
and choosing the Trace Name. Clicking OK would run the trace.
How do we do the same in SQL Server 2000?
File > Open > Trace Template
opens a Trace template but has only a 'Save' button and I'm therefore unable to run it.
How is it possible to run a previously defined trace repeatedly in SQL server 2000?
Thanks in advance,

HiThis is a question of "what does it cost me".Lets say I have an integer value which would fit into a smallint fieldbut the field is actually defined as int or even larger as bigint.What would that "cost" me ? How would definitions larger than I need forthe values in the field affect me ?Its obvious that the volume of the database would grow but with the sizeof resources etc that we have nowadays disc space isn't a problem likeit used to be and i/o is much faster and many people would tell me "whocares" , or IS it a problem ?How does it affect performance of data retrieves ? Searches ? Updatesand inserts ? How would it affect all db access if tables are pointingat each other with foreign keys ?Thanks !David Greenberg
View 3 Replies View RelatedLet me explain in simplified terms. We have an ETL process:
1) download data from the iSeries table Cust into SQL table Cust.
2) Tran_Cust is a view created FROM Cust
3) Copy from view Tran_Cust to table ods_Cust
4) v_ods_Cust is a view created from ods_Cust
I want to look for inconsistencies in the column definitions as a column moves from iSeries Cust, SQL Cust, view Tran_Cust, ods_Cust, view v_ods_Cust. The columns generally keep the same names except for v_ods_cust. Here a column like CustName will be created with a more meaningful column name - "CustName as 'Customer Name'.
We have hundreds of tables and we have column definition inconsistences where the host changed their column defintion and we made no changes on the SQL side. Or someone made a SQL column change in one table, but not both tables and the views were not dropped and recreated.
I have the list of tables. Think that I can put together some tsql to loop through the list of tables and create a new table based on the iSeries definition, then compare columns defintion across all the tables and views - except for the v_ods. THis is where columns are given new names - such as "CustName as 'Customer Name'". Need the actual view definition to find that CustName is 'Customer Name' and then compare the definition of ods_Cust.CustName to v_ods_Cust.[Customer Name]
How can I find the view definiton of say v_ods_Cust, seperate out the source column names (CustName) and destination column names (Customer Name) so that I can compare the source column names to another table and fine the differences?
My problem is this: How do I dynamically generate a Report Model Definition with c#?
Is there some sort of method I could call from the ReportingService2005 web service? Or some sort of APIs I could use?
If I didn't have a dynamic database structure, I would just create a Report Model Definition with BIS and then deploy the same model to each customer. However, our product creates additional tables in the database, depending on what data users wish to collect.
There are currently 2 solutions for this problem. First, I can manually create a Report Model Definition through the Buisness Intelligence Studio (BIS). However, I wish to be able to dynamically generate the report model without having to go through BIS. Second, I could use C# and manually write the XML of the SMDL. However this seems problematic.
I'm really hoping for some MS API that I'm missing out on here. Thanks for the help.
