  • How could I create a "Linked Server" link from SQL Server 2008R2 64-Bit to Oracle Database 11.2 64-Bit?

    How could I create a "Linked Server" link from SQL Server 2008R2 64-Bit to Oracle Database 11.2 64-Bit?
    Let's say the SQL Server and Oracle Database are in the same Company Internet Network.
    I have the code, but I do not know how to use it. Such as what is System DSN Name? Where could I get it. What does it look like?
    Do I need to install any Oracle Client Software in order to link from SQL Server to Oracle? Or SQL Server has the built-in drivers installed already that I can directly create a Linked Server from SQL Server to Oracle?
    I need to know details. Thanks.
    USE master
    go
    EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
         @server  = '{Linked Server Name}'
        ,@srvproduct = '{System DSN Name}'
        ,@provider  = 'MSDASQL'
        ,@datasrc  = '{System DSN Name}'
    EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
         @rmtsrvname = '{Linked Server Name}'
        ,@useself  = 'False'
        ,@locallogin = NULL
        ,@rmtuser  = '{Oracle User Name}'
        ,@rmtpassword = '{Oracle User Password}'

    You need an OLE DB provider for Oracle. There is one that ships with Windows, but it only supports very old versions of Oracle. Oracle has an OLE DB provider that you can use. I don't know if it's part of Oracle Client or how it is bundled.
    You should not use MSDASQL or any DSN.

  • Will Cumulative Update 12 for SQL Server 2008R2 SP2 fix: Warning: Unable to Verify TimeStamp for Path\ProgramName?

    Hello,
    I had a server crash recently and our outsource hosting tech support suggested applying Cumulative Upade 12 for SQL server 2008R2 SP2 to fix the issue.  The exception from our dump file "Warning: Unable to Verify TimeStamp for Path\ProgramName"
    is not in the list of hotfixes for this CU.  Do you know if this will fix this issue?  The CU warns not to apply the CU if your issue id not addressed by the CU.  Here is a portion of the dump file with the relevant error:
    This dump file has an exception of interest stored in it.
    The stored exception information can be accessed via .ecxr.

    Thank you,
    Steve -

    The error message appears to be related to a debug session and not come from the actual crash.
    So all I know is that you hade a server crash. I don't even know exactly what that means. Did Windows bite the dust? Or was it only SQL Server?
    Assuming the latter, I would expect the SQL Server errorlog to have some information (and that would be ERRORLOG.1 or earlier, since the server have been restarted), but if SQL Server died the output may be incomplete.
    There may be also dump files, but as I rarely look into these, I am not sure how to interpret them. But I am quite confident that "Unable to verify TimeStamp..." is not the reason SQL Server went down.
    I would suggest the following course:
    *  If the server is not critical, do nothing. As long as it has onlyl happened once, it has only happened once.
    *  If the server is critical, open a case with Microsoft if you are not able to figure out the reason yourself. The key here is "Unknown exception - code 000042ac".
    *  If it happens again, you should absolutely open a case. An important thing here is whether the stack dump is identical or something different. If the stack dumps are identical, you may have hit a bug in SQL Server or the OS, and applying CUs or OS
    fixes could help if it is a known issue. If the stack dump is something else, you have ghosts in the machine - that is, bad hardware.

  • SQL Server 2008R2 vs 2012 OLTP performance difference - log flushes size different

    Hi all,
    I'm doing some performance test against 2 identical virtual machine (each VM has the same virtual resources and use the same physical hardware).
    The 1° VM has Windows Server 2008R2 and SQL Server 2008R2 Standard Edition
    the 2° VM has Windows Server 2012R2 and SQL Server 2012 SP2 + CU1 Standard Edition
    I'm using hammerDB (http://hammerora.sourceforge.net/) has benchmark tool to simulate TPC-C test.
    I've noticed a significative performance difference between SQL2008R2 and SQL2012, 2008R2 does perform better. Let's explain what I've found:
    I use a third VM as client where HammerDB software is installed, I run the test against the two SQL Servers (one server at a time), in SQL2008R2 I reach an higher number of transaction per minutes.
    HammerDB creates a database on each database server (so the database are identical except for the compatibility level), and then HammerDB execute a sequence of query (insert-update) simulating the TPC-C standard, the sequence is identical on both servers.
    Using perfmon on the two servers I've found a very interesting thing:
    In the disk used by the hammerDB database's log (I use separate disk for data and log) I've monitored the Avg. Disk Bytes/Write and I've noticed tha the SQL2012 writes to the log with smaller packet (let's say an average of 3k against an average of 5k written
    by the SQL 2008R2).
    I've also checked the value of Log flushes / sec on both servers and noticed that SQL2012 do, on average, more log flushes per second, so more log flushes of less bytes...
    I've searched for any documented difference in the way log buffers are flushed to disk between 2008r2 and 2012 but found no difference.
    Anyone can piont me in the correct direction?

    Andrea,
    1) first of all fn_db_log exposes a lot of fields that do not exist in SQL2008R2
    This is correct, though I can't elaborate as I do not know how/why the changes were made.
    2) for the same DML or DDL the number of log record generated are different
    I thought as much (but didn't know the workload).
    I would like to read and to study what this changes are! Have you some usefu link to interals docs?
    Unfortunately I cannot offer anything as the function used is currently undocumented and there are no published papers or documentation by MS on reading log records/why/how. I would assume this to all be NDA information by Microsoft.
    Sorry I can't be of more help, but you at least know that the different versions do have behavior changes.

  • SQL Server 2008R2 memory issues

    Hi Experts.
    I have SQL Server 2008R2 installation,We allocated 102400MB(100GB) Memory   out of 128GB Installed.
    But Task manager is showing  SQL Servr using 104 GB.Please some body let us know why SQL Server uisng more memory more than we allocated.
    Please advise next step or recommendations if any 
    OS :Windows 2008R2 64bit.
    DB:SQL Server 2008R2 64bit.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,

    But Task manager is showing  SQL Servr using 104 GB.Please some body let us know why SQL Server uisng more memory more than we allocated.
    You should not refer to task manager for SQL server memory consumption. Its windows tool it always wont show you correct value.
    Please use below query to SQL Server memory utilization
    select
    (physical_memory_in_use_kb/1024)Memory_usedby_Sqlserver_MB,
    (locked_page_allocations_kb/1024 )Locked_pages_used_Sqlserver_MB,
    (total_virtual_address_space_kb/1024 )Total_VAS_in_MB
    from sys. dm_os_process_memory
    100 G limit is put on SQL Server buffer pool. SQL Server can still use memory more than 100 G because few memory allocations for objects like, XML,SQLCLR, Linked server, backup , database mail etc are allocated directly by windows and sys.dm_os_process_memory
    does not tracks it. So just relax this is normal
    Task manager only show Working set.

    On the other side MDW reports that the MEMORYCLERK_SQLOPTIMIZER increases since the execution of the query up to the point of OUTOF MEMORY, but the Average value is 54.7 MB during that period as can be seen on attached graph.
    We have encountered this issue already two times (every time the critical query is executed).

    Hi,
    This does seems to me kind of memory Leak and actually it is from SQL Optimizer which leaked memory from buffer pool so much that it did not had any memory to be allocated for new page.

    Can you post complete DBCC MEMORYSTATUS output which was generated in errorlog. Is this the only message in errorlog or there are some more messages before and after it.
    select (SUM(single_pages_kb)*1024)/8192 as total_stolen_pages, type
    from sys.dm_os_memory_clerks
    group by typeorder by total_stolen_pages desc
    and
    select sum(pages_allocated_count * page_size_in_bytes)/1024,type from sys.dm_os_memory_objects
    group by type
    If you can post the output of above two queries with dbcc memorystaus output on some shared drive and share location with us here. I would try to find out what is leaking memory.
    You can very well apply SQL Server 2008 r2 SP3 and see if this issue subsides but I am not sure whether this is fixed or actually it is a bug.

  • Services configuration for sql server 2008r2 in a Windows Cluster

    Hello,
    We have a Windows Server 2008 Cluster with Sql Server 2008r2 installed on node 2; when node 2 fails (we don't still know why, it's a 'bluescreen' long history), the service goes from node2 to node1, but sometimes the services are not automatically activated.
    What is the theoretical startup settings for sql services (for the sql and the agent), manual, disabled, automatic... ?
    Also, sometimes, the service for the sql server in node2 stops, but we don't know why, and we are not able to see any significant information on the event viewer. How can we trace why Sql Server stopped ?
    Thanks !

    >What is the theoretical startup settings for sql services
    Manual.  The cluster will start them.
    >How can we trace why Sql Server stopped ?
    Look in the SQL Server Log.

    Hi Ychinnari,
    Based on your description, you fail to install SQL Server 2008 R2 on Windows 7 SP1.
    According to the screenshot, we need to verify that if SQL Server 2008 R2 setup disappears when installing setup support files. If so, please post the error message from  SQLSetup.log file of the temp folder for analysis. Click on start->run and
    type %temp %  and press enter, you will navigate to the temp folder. For more details, you can review this
    blog.  Also, please help to collect the summary and detail logs, by default, the logs can be found in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
    In addition, there are some proposals for you troubleshooting this issue.
    1. Ensure that your system meets the
    hardware and software requirements for installing SQL Server 2008 R2.
    2. Make sure that you install SQL Server 2008 R2 with a admin account, and please choose “Run as administrator” to  complete installation.
    3. Make sure that previous installations of SQL Server has been uninstalled completely from your computer. For more details, please review the similar blog:
    SQL Server 2008 R2 Setup starts and then disappears.
    4. Stop any Anti-Virus software when installing SQL Server 2008 R2.
    Thanks,

  • Silent install of SQL Server 2008r2 for ALL users?

    We ship an installer that does a silent install of SQL Server 2008r2 with all the 'right' parameters pre-configured. We use this:
    /QS /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER /ACTION=Install /FEATURES=SQL,BC,Conn,ADV_SSMS /SAPWD=MyPasswordGoesHere /SECURITYMODE=SQL /TCPENABLED=1 /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN /SQLSVCSTARTUPTYPE=Automatic /SQLSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /AGTSVCACCOUNT="NT
    AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS
    However, the problem is that if a tech installs it for another user, that user does not have access, since ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN flag only adds the user who installed it -- rather than adding ALL users on the computer. (Or at least all admins.)
    I tried replacing ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN with this:
    /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\ADMINISTRATORS"
    but that also failed to work. How can we install for all users, or at least all administrators?
    NOTE: we do NOT know the name of the computer or the users. The installer has to work for any computer setup.
    Similar question has already been asked, but wasn't helpful:
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/8354675f-be9b-4909-b776-942f03954807/how-to-do-a-silent-install-of-sql-2010-express-for-all-users-on-a-computer?forum=sqlexpress
    The documentation does not make it clear what you can pass as allowed SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS parameters. I also am not sure if I would need to change the AGTSVCACCOUNT or SQLSVCACCOUNT?

    I tried one more thing:
    /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators"
    which does not halt installation with an error. 
    However, doing:
    osql -E
    create database test
    go
    in a command prompt from a different admin user on the same machine results in a permissions error... but works if done from a command prompt on the user account from which MSSQLServer was installed.
    So for some reason /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators" does not work as expected.
    Anyone have any idea why?
    I checked the output log from the install, and found it had generated and used a configurationFIle to do the install. I looked in that file, and these were the settings, even though I did NOT pass /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN as a command line option:
    ; Windows account(s) to provision as SQL Server system administrators. 
    SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators"
    ; The default is Windows Authentication. Use "SQL" for Mixed Mode Authentication. 
    SECURITYMODE="SQL"
    ; Provision current user as a Database Engine system administrator for SQL Server 2008 R2 Express. 
    ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN="True"
