Compatibility_level on SQL Server 2012 in-place upgrade

Hi all,
Based on BOL, master and user databases' compatibility_level will not be changed to 110 on SQL Server 2012 in-place upgrade.
Database Compatibility Level After Upgrade
The compatibility levels of the tempdb,
model, msdb and
Resource databases are set to 110 after upgrade. The
master system database retains the compatibility level it had before upgrade.
If the compatibility level of a user database was 90 or 100 before the upgrade, it remains the same after upgrade. If the compatibility level was 80 or less before upgrade, in the upgraded database, the compatibility level is set to 90, which is the
lowest supported compatibility level in SQL Server 2012.
I get the some result in our environment. So in-place upgrade SQL 2008 instance to SQL 2012 (both standalne and clustered), master/user databases' compatibility_level is 100. I also try to use SQL 2012 new function
OFFSET and FETCH, it works.
My concern is, whether we have to manually update the compatibility_level to 110? As SQL 2012 new features seem work even with compatibility_level <110, is there any problem if we leave it?
(I didn't find any document about this, and related change metioned as a step for SQL 2012 in-place upgrade.)
Any thoughts?
MCSE:Data Platform

So the idea is that if you have applications that are dependent on behaviour that changes, you can stay with the old compat level. I believe that there is some upgrade assistant to investigate whether this applies to you.
On the top of my head, I don't recall any differences between compat levels 100 and 110, but there surely are some. But there are no new reserved keywords as I recall. And some things break even with the old compat level. (COMPUTE BY and the old RAISERROR
syntax for instance.) So I don't think it is particularly brave to change the compatibility level. Change it back if something really breaks.
The risk if you don't change it now, is that you have code developed on a dev server with compat level 110, which breaks when you deploy in production. And this happens one year from now, and no one recalls that this server has compat level 100, so it
causes a lot of confusion and waste of time.

    Is Microsoft going to support in-place upgrades from 2012 to 2012 R2?

    Hi,
    Currently, we have no official news regarding if it supports upgrade from Windows Server 2012 to 2012 R2. But according to the previous OS upgrade path, I think it should support.

  • Package Failing after update to SQL Server 2012 SP2

    I have a package that was running fine with SQL Server 2012 until an upgrade to SP2 the package now fails in a derived column step where a bunch of type casts are done
    (DT_NTEXT)"\" " + (DT_NTEXT)@[User::phantomScriptLoc] + (DT_NTEXT)"getautomatedtable.js " + (DT_NTEXT)"--ignore-ssl-errors=yes -user \"" + (DT_NTEXT)Username + (DT_NTEXT)"\" -pass \"" + (DT_NTEXT)Password + (DT_NTEXT)"\" -url \"" + (DT_NTEXT)@[User::gatewayWebLoc] + (DT_NTEXT)"\" -module \"/" + (DT_NTEXT)module_name + (DT_NTEXT)"/index.cfm\" -reportpage \"" + (DT_NTEXT)report_name + (DT_NTEXT)"\" -deptid \"" + (DT_NTEXT)cast_deptid + (DT_NTEXT)"\" -reportname \"" + (DT_NTEXT)report_title + (DT_NTEXT)"\" -outfile \"" + (DT_NTEXT)@[User::storeReportsLoc] + (DT_NTEXT)filename + (DT_NTEXT)"\" -format \"" + (DT_NTEXT)RTRIM(AutoRpt_FileFmt_Txt) + (DT_NTEXT)"\" -querystring \"" + (DT_NTEXT)queryString + (DT_NTEXT)"&debugMode=1\"\""
    The package does not return an error but instaed call SQLDUMPER and creates a dump file.
    Any one else had an issue since an SP2 upgrade?

    Hi tbrown10a,
    I am able to reproduce the issue after installing SP2 for SQL Server 2012. The issue occurs when trying to cast one data type to DT_NTEXT or DT_TEXT data type. As Arthur mentioned, I would suggest you file a connect at
    https://connect.microsoft.com/sql.
    Connect site is a connection point between you and Microsoft, and ultimately the larger community. Your feedback enables Microsoft to make software and services the best that they can be, and you can learn about and contribute to exciting projects.

  • Unable to upgrade SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012 SP1

    I'm encountering error after error, after successfully installing the upgrade advisor (which took some doing) and running it with essentially no warnings/errors (the one warning was on the connection strings, as I recall -- and all of the warnings had a
    "fix after" status.
    First failure involved SSRS and the inability to create the "managed account". Backed out the upgrade using http://sqldbanotes.blogspot.com/2013/10/how-to-fix-failed-in-place.html
    Now the failure involves SSAS and unable to connect to analysis services with name MSSQLServerOLAPService.  That is the logical name for the service, although it shows up as just MSSQLServer when looking at it in the services list.  I tried
    setting the service account to a local account as  well as to Local System -- did not make a difference, the upgrade couldn't apparently find it regardless.
    Has anybody successfully done an in place upgrade from SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012?

    Hi Bob，
    Thanks for your post and I am glad to hear that the issue is resolved. Thanks for you posting a reply to share your solution and I had marked it as answer. That way, other community members could benefit from your sharing.

  • 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.
    Best
    Martin

    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).
    Regards,
    Matt

  • Upgrading from SQL Server 2012 Standard to SQL Server 2014 Standard Failover Cluster

    Goal: To upgrade my default instance from SQL Server 2012 to SQL Server 2014 in a failover cluster.
    Given:
    1) Operating System Windows 2012 R2
    2) 2 Virtual Machines in a cluster with SQL Server as a Guest Cluster resource.  The two VMS are called APPS08 and APPS09.  They are our development environment that is setup similar to our production environment.
    Problem:  When running the SQL Server 2014 upgrade, I started on the VM that was not running the instance.  I then moved onto upgrading on the node that was running the instance.  As soon as the install attempt to failover the running instance
    an install error occurred that it could not failover.  After many install attempts I consistently received the error
    The SQL Server Failover cluster instance name 'Dev01'
    already exists as a cluster resource.  Opening Failover cluster manager there is no record of a DEV01.
    New Strategy:  Create a SQLCluster called DEV07.  At the end of the Install I get 'Resource for instance 'MSSQLSERVER' should not exists.  Neither I nor my Windows 2012 guy understand what Resource the install may be referring to.  
    We do not see anything out of the ordinary.
    Any suggestions as to what Resource may be seeing the default instance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi PSCSQLDBA,
    As your description, you want to upgrade the default instance in SQL Server cluster.
    >> 'SQL Server failover cluster instance name 'Dev01' already exists as cluster resource'
    This error could occur when there is a previously used instance name which may not be removed completely.
    To work around the issue, please use one of the ways below.
    1. At command prompt, type Cluster res. This command will list you all the resources including orphan resources. To delete the orphan resource, type Cluster res <resource name>/delete.
    For more information about the process, please refer to the article:
    http://gemanjyothisqlserver.blogspot.in/2012/12/sql-2008r22012-cluster-installation.html
    2. Delete DNS entries, and force a replication of DNS to the other DNS servers.
    For more information about the process, please refer to the article:
    http://jon.netdork.net/2011/06/07/failed-cluster-install-and-name-already-exists/#solution
    >> 'Resource for instance 'MSSQLSERVER' should not exist'
    This error could occur when you already have MSSQLSERVER as a resource in the cluster, which may not be removed completely. To work around the issue, you could rebuild the SQL Server cluster node.

    Michelle Li

  • Users using Windows Authentication unable to login after upgrade to SQL Server 2012 SP2 CU1

    We upgraded from SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012 SP2 CU1.  Upgrade was successful.  Users that have SQL Server Management Studio 2012 can successfully log in via Windows Authentication, but users with an older version of SQL Server Management
    Studio are unable to log in via Windows Authentication. 
    The error they receive is listed below:
    Connect not connect to XXXXXXX
    Login Failed.  The login is from an untrusted domain and cannot be used with Windows Authentication. 
    (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18452)
    If we switch to Mixed authentication, users can log in via SQL Server Authentication.
    Our security policy prohibits SQL Authentication. 
    Outside of having the staff upgrade to SQL Server 2012 SQL Server Management Studio, is there any setting I can set/unset to allow older version of SQL Server Management studio to connect to SQL Server 2012?
    Thanks.

    Glad to see that you were able to resolve the issue yourself, but for the curious, could you explain what this

  • Help with installing sql server 2012 upgrade advisor

    Hello there,
    I have two questions here:
    1. My sql server 2005 is on Window Server 2003/SP2. Does this mean I cannot install sql server 2012 upgrade advisor on it? This page (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144256.aspx)
    cites that the supported OS are "Windows Vista SP1, or SP2, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2."
    2. I tried to install the upgrade advisor on my local machine (windows 7, 64-bit). Even after I installed "Microsoft SQL Server Transact-SQL ScriptDom ", I still got the error message "Setup is missing prerequisites: - Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Transact-SQL
    ScriptDom, which is not installed by Updgrade Advisor Setup........" Why is that?
    Thank you for your help in advance!

    Hello,
    Have you installed .NET Framework 4.0 also?
    Make sure you installed Transact-SQL ScriptDom from the following link:
    http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=29065&amp;ocid=aff-n-we-loc--ITPRO40886&amp;WT.mc_id=aff-n-we-loc--ITPRO40886

  • Upgrade the Edition for SQL Server 2012

    Hi All,
    After spending 3hrs on the phone to MS in India I'm trying here as a last resort!
    I'm trying to upgarde my SQL server 2012 Developer version from Evaluation to a full copy. I've been told that my Product key (Note I do not have a Product ID) is legit from the front line support.
    However when I run hte SQL Server Installation Center (as an Administrator) I go to the following:
    Maintenance
    Edition upgrade
    Pass first validation
    Then enter in the Product Key and I get the following back in SQL:
    "There are validation errors on this page. Click OK to Close this dialog box. Review Errors at the bottom of the setup page, then provide valid parameters or click help for more information".
    I can only click on OK and then I'm left with either Next (same thing happens) or Cancel (which halts the full installation) finally help (which is useless).
    Any help and ideas greatly appreciated!!!
    Gavin

    Hello,
    Make sure the product language of the SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition is the same of the Evaluation Edition you have
    installed. If they have different product language, you may receive the "There are validation errors on this page" error message. 
    For more information, please read the following resource:
