SQL Standard and Express on same host - limits?

$
0
0

We have a customer with a new SQL host box running a fully licensed copy of SQL Standard 2017.

One of the SQL enabled apps the customer uses requires SQL Express, so we also installed an instance of that for that application.

The question is - do the throttling limits for Express still apply to the databases in the Express instance in this case?

Asking because when I use management studio to look at the properties for the express instance, it shows the full amount of RAM and processor cores as assigned to the Standard instance (32 GB and 12 cores) :

Appreciate any clarification on this!!


Move reports from SSRS 2012 server to SSRS 2017 server

Our company is moving to SQL Server 2017, so SSRS is also getting upgraded to SSRS 2017. I would like to know how can I move my reports in SSRS 2012 server to SSRS 2012 report server.

From what I read about it there is no direct method.  So do I have download every SSRS report and upload it back onto SSRS 2017 server?

Some of these reports are being used by SharePoint 2013 for giving access to users.

Thanks

Hi everyone,

Wondering if anyone has come across deploying a new SQL 2016 Enterprise server running on Windows Server 2016 Standard, however the domain functional level is still set on 2003.  SQL is not deployed on domain controller but it own server.

Any issues encountered?

Implementing Always Encrypted - SQL Server 2017 Standard

$
0
0

We have installed and configured SQL Server 2017 to support our cost accounting reporting using Logi Studio reports.

SQL Server 2017 is running on a W2K16 virtual machine. Logi Studio (the application server) is running on a separate W2K16 virtual machine. We have gone live in production without turning on Always Encrypted.

Our next and final phase is to implement Always Encryption. While implementing Always Encrypted looks relatively straight forward on the SQL Server, I am having a bit of difficulty understanding what I will need to install so that the Logi reports can query Always Encrypted columns and return plain text.

Can anybody with experience with Always Encrypted offer how they designed their system? Will I have to update each query, view, function, stored procedure that uses Always Encryption? Will I have to install an encryption key or some other software on the reports server?

Any help you can offer, I would very much appreciate.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Guys,

I am trying in-place upgrade of SQL server 2012 to SQL server 2016 in one of my environments. I faced a blocker and summary file showed me the error that i need to fix

Its default backup directory set in the instance properties which is no longer available. I fixed it and i attempted upgrade again. when I reach the instance features selection, i have selected the features but clicking next throwing me error like 

I fee this could be a bug like one below

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/955399/how-to-troubleshoot-a-failed-upgrade-to-sql-server-2008


This time in the summary log there is only user canceled exit message.How should i progress further with the SQL server 2016 upgrade now.

Exit message:                  User has canceled.

Hi Experts,

I need a help in MS SQL 2014. I am having issue while starting SQL service (Not clustered) in server .

Error Code is 17114.

Checking in event log giving this error:

SQL server 2016 in a 2 node failover cluster. We have some business critical DB's and i am trying to find the best strategy to back the DB's up so we can recover quickly from a failure. Do you recommend a once a week full back with incremental backups everyday, or full backups everyday? I have heard and read that transaction log backups are the best. I would appreciate your help

SQL Server 2008 upgrade

$

Hello,

I am currently running SQL Server 2008 in a VM with Windows Server 2012 Standard. Lately, i decided to migrate to the latest version (2017) but as i can see my current sql server must be patched with SP4 before doing so.

The question is, how safe it is to install SP4 on my current version ? Is it possible/easy to rollback if anything goes wrong ? Are there any remarkable changes in terms of security / perfomance between vanilla and SP4 ?

Thank you in advance

Unable to connect to SQL Server Instance from remote

$
0
0

I have a Server with 10 SQL Server named instances. 

On 3 of them (the last 3 I've installed) I am unable to connect remotely using ServerName\InstanceName.

However, I am able to access remotely to these 3 Instances with:

  • CName that points to the Instance IP Address
  • ServerName, InstancePort

Locally, on the Server where my Instances are installed I am able to connect with ServerName\InstanceName.

All other instances work fine, i.e. I am able to connect remotely with ServerName\InstanceName.

My SQL Server Browser Service is running and I have a firewall rule to allow connections to UDP 1434 (otherwise the other 7 Instances would not work either). The Ports from all the Instances are also open on my Firewall (otherwise I would not be able to connect to using the CName (IP Address of the Instance).

I am running the latest build, SQL Server 2016 SP2 CU3 (13.0.5216.0).

I have nothing on my SQL Server Log, Server Log and Firewall Log.

Has anyone experience something similar or can give me a hint on what I should be looking at?

In place upgrade from SQL Server 2014 to SQL Server 2017

Hi,

   When I upgrade from SQL Server 2014 to SQL Server 2017 with only the database engine and SSIS installed.  I am able to uninstall SQL Server 2014 SSIS, and SSMS using unattended  configuration file.  But When I have all the services installed (SSRS, SSIS, SSAS)  somehow the installation process leaves a lot of SQL Server 2014 menu items behind, and SSIS 12 in the configuration manager behind.  But I can't clean it up. I see some suggestions to go to the program features and uninstall, but I am try to execute this in an unattended way.

First of all is this to be expected.  shouldn't it get rid of SQL Server 2014 items from the menu?  Thanks.

I am trying to obtain a 64-bit  "Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)" driver  so that I can access csv files. Does one exist?

I am using sqlserver 2005 x64 and have installed the 64-bit version  MSDASQL
 
My goal is use openrowset as follows

select
*
fromOpenRowset('MSDASQL','Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)}; 
                      DefaultDir=\\myserver\share\testdata;Extensions=CSV;'
,
                        
'select * from testdata.csv')


But get the following error

OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)".

This work fine on a 32 bit server


Thanks

SQL 2012 Setup - Unable to connect on secondary NIC

$

SQL Newbie here -

I installed SQL 2012 on a server and want to isolate traffic to a specific nic.  I've gone into configuration manager where Named Pipes is disabled, Shared Mem is enabled and TCP/IP is enabled. I've modified the TCP/IP protocol by changing the Listen All to NO, changed the IPALL: TCP Dynamic ports to have no value and modified one of the IPn enabled values to yes and manually changed that IP from a 169 address to the IP of the nic I want SQL to send traffic through: 192.168.0.1. I've also changed all the other IPn enable values to No, including the 127.0.0.1. 

I've gone to the command line and ran netstat -ano and confirmed sql is listening via the IP and port I've specified and only on that IP. 

192.168.0.1:1433 

My mysqlserver instance is running, as I can run sc query mysqlserver and the command line and see state 4 running.

However, the app, I'm trying to connect to sql fails, despite using a windows account that pretty much has god access. 

So. how can I confirm that the client server can connect to mysql server independent of the app?

sql server installation problem

I have tried uninstalling SQL Server 2012 from my system but to no avail. I have used the uninstallation tool under Apps and Features settings of my computer and the reoccurring message is that the server can't be found even though it is in the programme lists. I don't know what to do so that I can install SQL Server 2017 (Developer Edition).

hi

getting space constraint   on C: ,  can we remove this file from this location?


C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\130\Setup Bootstrap\Update Cache   -- contains KBarticles

recently applied patches on 5/13/2018  

or else  except recent KB.   we can remove all thing?

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\130\Setup Bootstrap\Log

once we remove this files,

 we cannot revert backup the patches/ uninstall patches.

 while install new patches it will not show existing version list.

so can we remove all files except recent files.?
