Unable to edit maintenance plan Sql Server 2008R2
Hi All,
I am unable to edit sql server maintenance plan and it is failing continuously from job as well.When I try to open the same the throws an error:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio is unable to load this document.:
Error loading from XML. No further detailed error information can be supplied for this problem because no Event objects was passed where detailed error information can be stored. It used to work pretty well in the past.Throws same error when I try to connect
remotely.

Rahul
Has the MP been developed in SQL Server 2008r2 as well?

Hello,
I first installed SQL Serrver Express Edition 2008 with Advanced Services (As a part of some client's software)
Now I have isntalled SQL Server Developer Edition 2008, by selecting ALL features and client tools.
Now, with BIDS, I can start SSRS and SSAS Projects, but I can't start SSIS Projects.
I am getting below error message :
To design Integration Services packages in Business Intelligence Development Studio, Integration Services has to be installed by one of these editions of SQL Server 2008: Standard, Enterprise, Developer, or Evaluation. To install Integration
Services, run SQL Server Setup and select Integration Services.
Please let me know how do I resolve this issue "Without un-installing Express Edition installed earlier on my machine"
Please help !
Thanks
DPThis is a common pitfall with the SQL Express editions. It cannot co-exist. You
need to un-install the "Express".
What works is having a VM with Express Tools if I you (strangely) need them.

Problem with full backup with copy only in maintenance plan sql server 2008
Hello
I am starter DBA for sql server in general
I have problem related to backup with maintenance plan in sql server 2008 and 2008 r2
I created maintenance plan to take full back up with copy only option checked, but when I check the back up in backupset table is_copy_only column it shows 0 for databases that I run job for.
I did the same steps on sql server 2012 and I checked backupset table is_copy_only column it shows 1 for databases that I run job for .so it works as it should be
Note: all the servers I mention here are production serversCopy-only Backup by using GUI ( SSMS) in SQL Server 2008 but it was not available in Maintenance Plan "Back
Up Database Task". Now in SQL Server 2012 It is included in "Back Up Database
Task".

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
