Can you change toolbar button images in SQL Server 2012?

In SQL Server 2012 management studio I do not see an option to change the button image of the buttons on the toolbar.
In previous versions of SQL, you could go to Tools --> Customize --> Rearrange Commands, select the toolbar, click on a command and then click "Modify Selection". One of the resulting choices was "Change Button Image". You could
choose a different image for the toolbar button you selected. Another choice was "Edit Button Image" which allowed you to create a completely new image for your toolbar button.
I do not see any way to do this in SQL Server 2012. Has this functionality been removed or am I just not finding it?
Thanks,
Alan

Hi Alan,
Based on your description, I make a test in SQL Server 2012, and I also find that there is no option to change button image or edit button image when customizing toolbar. It seems that the functionality has been changed from SQL Server 2012.
Therefore, If you concern about this feature, I recommend you submit the requirement at
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/ . If the requirement mentioned by customers for many times, the product team may consider to add this feature. Your feedback is valuable for us to improve
our products and increase the level of service provided.
Thanks,

Can you change the default image capture program in RH8?

Can you change the default image capture program in RH8? I have used Snagit for sooo many years and I would like to use it by clicking the Caputre button. I know how to change it to edit pictures with Snagit (Tools > Options > Associations), but not to capture.

Looks like a feature request.

How can you change the banner of the FTP-server on the Linksys WRT610N ?

Dear readers,
My question is this : How can you change the banner of the FTP-server on the Linksys WRT610N ?
At present it says : "Welcome to WRT610 Router's FTP service" which gives away the type of the device.
Which is a clue I would rather hide. Besides that I would like to change it to something more personal.
But how do you do that ?
The UG is silent about this.
Regards
John

Try this to change FTP banner?
* Login as admin
* Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
* Expand FTP sites (from tree view)
* Right-click on the particular FTP site, select Properties
* Click on the Messages tab
* Setup new message

Change Tracking internals behave differently, SQL Server 2012 vs SQL Server 2008

<original post by Glenn Estrada>
Reposting an issue from Stack Overflow that a coworker and I are dealing with.
In trouble shooting an issue with synchronizing disconnected devices with a central database server using Sync Framework 1.0, we are experiencing a problem after upgrading to SQL Server 2012 on the server. It appears that the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION
is returning a value 1 higher than it should (or at least than it did prior to the upgrade.)
I have been working thru Arshad
Ali's great walk thru example of how to set up a simple example.
I have run the scripts from #1 thru #5 to insert, delete, and update a row in the Employee table in both a SQL Server 2008 and a 2012 environment.
In 2008, the following statement returns a 0:
SELECT CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION(OBJECT_ID('Employee'))
In 2012, it returns a 1.
In working thru a few more scripts (6-8) in the tests, I set the retention period to 1 minute to hopefully force a cleanup action. I left for the day and apparently it ran overnight.
In the 2008 instance, the CHANGE_TRACKING_CURRENT_VERSION and the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION are equal (11). In the 2012 instance, the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION is one higher (12) than the CHANGE_TRACKING_CURRENT_VERSION (11). This could have
an impact to the synchronization process when a database is idle for extended periods of time. And we have found that process could get caught in a loop, especially when the following test is performed to determine if a re-initialization, as opposed to synchronization,
is required:
IF CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION(object_id(N'dbo.Employee')) > @sync_last_received_anchor
RAISERROR (N'SQL Server Change Tracking has cleaned up tracking information for table ''%s''...
Has anyone else experienced this change in behavior? Does anyone have an explanation?

Can you change the background image in IP Communicator

Can you load an image file from you local workstation as the background in IP communicator?

The first image worked great, but...
I made and applied all the correct directories, images, and files needed for the custom background.
I tested it on IP communicator and it worked great, with the image showing up as selection 2.
Then I added another image selection; meaning I added the formatted image files and edited .xml file.
Restarted IP Communicator and it still only shows the 1st custom image I created.
I have checked and rechecked the .xml file along with the formatting of the images and still only 1 custom image is there.
Ideas -
Maybe there is a ?reload? command that I need to use on the phone itself?
Is there any difference if the image is loaded on a Subscriber or Publisher
- Currently I have it loaded on a subscrber that I also have confirmed that is set as the TFTP server for the IP Communicator.
Thanks for any help you can provide on this issue.

Can you run Orchestrator on the same SQL server as SCCM?

500+ systems, and our SCCM data base is sizable. We're running SQL on a virtual server within our SAN. I can tell you just poking around on the server, I do feel its kinda slow and everything feels to kinda chug.... Might be better to just see if I can get approval on the spend for another license... I do know deep down thats the correct way to go.
Unless Orch is so light and hardly uses any resources that it can piggyback SCCM? The hard part is going to be to convince them to use something I am still learning to use. Ha! But I do have a book for it, so thats a step in the right direction.

So our current solution is MDT for deployments, and SCCM for software and updates deployment as well as software center self service.
I'm wanting to bring in Orchestrator to start using playbooks to automate everything. I see that all of Software Center's add-on parts don't cost anything, but all require SQL Server. Well I already have that running for SCCM. So can I share between the two? SCCM is already kind of a big hog, but I have zero to little knowledge of Orchestrator... Would that be just a little more stress on the server or a lot more? Does Orchestrator really need its own server?

Can you change the button color on a custom theme?

I recently installed a nice theme called Fractal-01 Song of a morning breeze. I had to installan add-on to change the menus that were white and thus invisible, but I have not figured out how to get the grey buttons for like Home and Back and Reload black, and they are very hard to see with this theme.
I tried changing them in Custom Theme Restorer, but nothing seems to change them to black. I can't imagine that the person who designed this theme would have made these washed out colors that blend into the theme the default, but maybe he or she did. It is a shame to give up on such a nice theme if I don't have to, but it helps if you can see your buttons.

Hi sherylz,
It is also possible to edit the theme, but it may be wise to make a copy of it:

SQL Server Compact 3.5 Merge Replication With SQL Server 2012 - Causing IIS App Pool to Crash

Hi, I may be the only person in the world doing this but I wanted to give this information to anyone else who may follow this path in the future, and hopefully avoid a headache, or at least a paid support call to Microsoft.
My original scenario was we had a SQL Server 2008 Server using Merge Replication through and IIS (web server) to several Windows Mobile 6 devices. This has worked fairly well for a few years.
Recently we upgraded our SQL server to version 2012 SP 1. After moving the database over to the new server, and re-setting the merge replication stuff, we couldn't get merge replication to work on the Windows Mobile 6 handheld devices. The replication
would appear to start, and then we would get a message saying that the device could not get to the web site. The message on the handheld device was this:
"The IIS service is not available."
After doing some more research, we found that the start of the replication process was causing the Thread Pool that was running the SQLCESA35.dll to crash.
The SQLCESALOG.txt file had this information:
Date Time == SQLCESA Version ==> 3.5.8088.0
Date Time Hr=80004005 ERR:Couldn't find existing RSCB 1
After 2 days of trying to figure out the issue on our own, we gave in and called for paid Microsoft support. They eventually found a known issue where a cumulative update was able to fix the problem.
We installed the update on the IIS server and everything ran smoothly again.
FIX: Merge replication fails when you use SQL Server Compact to perform a merge replication that synchronizes changes with a publisher in SQL Server 2012

SQL Server 2012 with SP1 on Windows 8.1 Pro

Can I install "out-of-the-box" SQL Server 2012 with Service Pack 1 Enterprise Edition or SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition on my Windows 8.1 VM?
Thanks.

Hello,
SQL Server 2012 SP1 is fully supported by Windows 8.1, and there is no need to install any SQL update for the installation.
Enterprise Edition is not supported on client operating systems like Windows 8.1 but setup won’t prevent you from installing.
Developer Edition is fully supported on client operating systems.
Hope this helps.

EHP2 - EHP7 Upgrade Path using SQL Server 2012/Win Server 2012 R2

Hi Guys.
I have question regarging Upgrade Roadmap for a ERP 6 EHP2 system based on NW 7.01 which I would like to Upgrade to ERP6 EHP7 SP7
Source System is
Windows 2012
SQL Server 2008 R2
EHP2 for ERP 6.0 SPS Level 14
Target System
Windows 2012
SQL Server 2012
EHP7 for ERP 6.0 SP 7 based on NW 7.4 SP 9
During Upgrade checks it says I must Upgrade Database first before continue since DB Release is too low for NW 7.4 SP9 as stated in Note
1951491 - Minimal DB system platform requirements for SAP NetWeaver 7.4 SP08
So, at this point I agree i have to update SQL Server to 2012 before next step
Now, my concern is that my Source System does not have the minimum NW SP level (14) to run under SQL Server 2012 which is 26.
Im currently running SAP Kernel 721 EXT Level 401 which is above mininum
According to Note 1651862 - Release planning for Microsoft SQL Server 2012 that would not be possible
Existing systems of SAP products that are out of SAP maintenance can be upgraded to SQL Server 2012 in order to prepare a SAP upgrade, if they match the SAP NetWeaver Support Package requirements defined below.
SAP products prior to SAP NetWeaver 7.0 are not supported at all on SQL Server 2012.
Required minimum SAP Netweaver Support Package Stacks (SPSs) for SQL Server 2012 (SAP ABAP, SAP ABAP+JAVA stacks)
SAP NETWEAVER 7.0 - SPS 26 (SAP BASIS 26, SAP BW 28)
SAP EHP1 FOR SAP NETWEAVER 7.0 - SPS 11 (SAP BASIS 11, SAP BW 11)
SAP EHP2 FOR SAP NETWEAVER 7.0 - SPS 11 (SAP BASIS 11, SAP BW 11)
SAP EHP3 FOR SAP NETWEAVER 7.0 - SPS 03 (SAP BASIS 03, SAP BW 03)
SAP NETWEAVER 7.1 - SPS 14 (SAP BASIS SP14)
SAP EHP1 FOR SAP NETWEAVER 7.1 EhP1 - SPS 10(SAP BASIS SP10, SAP BW SP10)
SAP NetWeaver 7.2 - no restriction
SAP NETWEAVER 7.3 - SPS 07 (SAP BASIS 07, SAP BW 07)
SAP EHP1 FOR SAP NETWEAVER 7.3 - SPS 03 (SAP BASIS 03, SAP BW 03)
If your system is running on a SPS lower than the one required above, you have to apply the minimum required SPS before upgrading/migrating to SQL Server 2012.
If you install a NetWeaver product on SQL Server 2012, the required SPS for your product must be applied immediately after the installation - see SAP note 1676665, section I for more information.
But performing the Upgrade would be technically possible? I mean not for productive use but technicaly during that time the Database is Upgrade and during SUM Execution.
According to the note it states if you install a Netweaver Product in SQL Server 2012, SPS must be applied immediately, so is kinda ambigous what SAP is saying.

Hi Martin,
For a test scenario, there's no harm in trying it (other than spending a lot of time on it, but hopefully that will prove not to be a waste). Generally, I expect you'll be fine upgrading your DBMS even though you aren't on the required minimum SP yet. The main thing you'll be missing out on is the updates to DBACOCKPIT, but once you do your EhP upgrade (with sps update included), you'll be putting that in place.
So, you could try this on your sandbox system and see if there are any problems. I assume the intent is to start the EhP upgrade as soon as the DBMS upgrade is done, right? In other words, you won't be actually using the system without the required SP except to run the EhP upgrade?
Alternatively, you could do a minimal support pack update, perhaps just a Basis SP only, to the minimum SP needed for your current release, then do the DBMS upgrade, then proceed with the EhP upgrade. This would be the safest procedure, but, as I said, I expect you can probably get away without going to this level without much problem. Again, the idea would be minimizing the time between the start and end of the total project on each system (DEV, QAS, PRD, etc).

Matt

SQL Server 2012 Management Studio - Stop, Start, Restart options all Greyed Out

I am a sa and local admin on various SQL Servers. I can see the stop/start/restart etc. options when using lower version tools and also when directly logged onto the servers. However with SQL2012 SP2 MS remotely these options are all greyed out for
all servers. I can confirm that I have effective 'view server state' perms, and also that domain admins can see the options. Why can't I see these options through SQL2012 SP2 MS? Any help appreciated.

What rights do you have on windows machine where SQL server 2012 resides, the one who you want to start stop remotely. Are you connecting SQL server 2012 with SSMS 2012 or some lower version SSMS ?

SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition Installation Problem

Hi,
I have just been given a new PC by my IT department so am trying to get all the software I need onto the PC. Since I am now running windows 7 I wanted to try SQL Server 2012, however whenever I go to install it, one of the checks always fails as follows:-
SetupCompatibilityCheck
Checks whether the current version of SQL Server is compatible with a later installed version.
This version is not compatible with a later installed version. For more information, see the compatibility information at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=160850.
All other checks are successful but no matter whether I use the MSDN disc the software is on or the downloaded copy, the software doesn't seem to like my PC. I don't understand how the software can believe there is something
newer than SQL Server 2012 on the system. When I run the discovery tool elsewhere in the installer it reports that nothing is installed.
Is anyone able to give me some information on what might be triggering this? I did install Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2010 on the system prior to this, as well as SQL Server 2008 R2, but I have since removed all of these products again in order
to try and identify the cause of this problem. Now with nothing left on the system again, it still reports this same error. Could it be something is left over from those installations that is causing this problem?
Any help would be much appreciated
Regards
Paul

Hi Paul,
Any progress?
This issue you met may be due to there are still registry keys left related to the SQL Server, even though we have uninstalled the SQL Server.
To fix the issue, we can remove the left keys manually:
1. Click 'Start' > 'Run' > type 'regedit' > press Enter key.
2. Backup this registry keys that related to SQL Server under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
3. Delete keys that relate to SQL Server under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall.
4. Restart the setup installation.
If you have any problem, please feel free to let me know.
Thanks,
Maggie

What is the difference between SQL Server 2012 R2 & SQL Server 2014

Hi all,
I am using SQL Server from last 3 years. I started SQL Server 2008 R2. Now I am using SQL Server 2012. I want to change my development environment to SQL Server 2012 R2. But suddenly I saw that SQL Server 2014 is released. I want to know what are the
differences between SQL Server 2012 R2 & SQL Server 2014. Are both those are the same or different products?
I searched through the Internet but I didn't find any article regarding that. So could someone help me to solve this matter?
Thanks,
Regards,
Chiranthaka

differences between SQL Server 2012 R2 & SQL Server 2014.
We don't have a Version "SQL Server 2012 R2", only 2005, 2008, 2008R2, 2012 and 2014.

How can you change data on a SQL 2012 application database that uses availability groups from BizTalk server?

If you use the WCF-SQL adapter it is recommend that you set UseAmbientTransaction to true if you are changing data. I think this requires MSDTC to be enabled on the SQL server that you are changing the data on. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd787981.aspx)
I think that Availability groups does not support MSDTC. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms366279.aspx).
