Create MS SQL Server 2014 instance for TSQL2012 sample database Training kit (70-461)

Hi,
I just bought the Training kit (70-461) Querying Microsoft SQL server 2012. I downloaded Microsoft SQL Server 2014. I have also downloaded the script for the sample database -
TSQL2012.sql.
Basically I want to set up the sample database and practice my SQL queries. How do I log into
Microsoft SQL Server 2014? Basically I am doing this on my home computer. It is asking me for Server type, Server name, and Authentication. Do I have to set up a server instance to run and create the sample database? How?
Thanks.
Peter

Do you see anything in the Server Name at all?
So, in the first drop down you need to select Database Engine.
In the second (for Server Name) if you see anything, then try selecting it.
If there is nothing, try methods described in this article
http://sqlserver-help.com/2011/06/19/help-whats-my-sql-server-name/
to find the actual name.
Then, try choosing Windows Authentication and try connecting. If this would not work, then you do need to try using sa and sa's password. If there is no way to find that sa password, then perhaps it's better to clearly uninstall and re-install. If you want,
I'll move your thread into either 'Getting Started' or Data Access forum as it doesn't seem to be related with Transact SQL.

Can SQL server 2014 instance be introduced into SQL server 2012 clustering

Hello, everyone,
We have SQL server clustering set up in place (it is actually windows clustering), I am wondering if it is possible to introduce SQL server 2014 instance
into this clustering. Please share us your thoughts and experiences.
Thanks

if you are talking about SQL clustering -(FAILOVER CLUSTERED INSTANCES) , yes, you can do that.
you have windows cluster with nodea,nodeb....and you can install two different instances of failover clustered sql - sql 2012 and sql 2014.
Hope it Helps!!

How do you allow SQL Server 2014 Express for remote connection and in firewall?

I'm sorry if this was answered here before.
I installed SQL Server 2014 Express and it is working perfectly. I want my server to be accessed through LAN. It is a named instance.
I searched the internet and here's what i did:
1. Through the SQL Configuration manager, I enabled all the Protocols of my Instance (TCP/IP, Named Pipes and Shared Memory). I changed in the IP Addresses the "IP ALL" TCP Dynamic Ports to 1434.
2. In the Firewall I made an Inbound Rule to allow the Program (%ProgramFiles% (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.MyInstance\MSSQL\Binn\sqlservr.exe)
3. I also made 2 Inbound Rules to allow (TCP/IP Port 1433) and (UDP Port 1434).
4. Restarted my instance. SQL Server Browser and SQL Server Reporting Services are also running.
5. No Luck I cant still access the server using a different computer in the network.
Please help.

Hello,
In Express Edition by default remote connections are disabled, you have to enable it first:
Configure the remote access Server Configuration Option
It's always a two way communication, so you have to create also outbound rules, not only inbound, and this on server as well as on client side; see
Configure a Windows Firewall for Database Engine Access

SQL Server 2014 supported for scheduled refresh?

The following link, which lists the supported data sources for scheduled refresh in Power BI, lists all versions of SQL Server from 2005 to 2012:
https://support.office.com/en-gb/article/Supported-Data-Sources-and-Data-Types-cb69a30a-2225-451f-a9d0-59d24419782e?ui=en-US&rs=en-GB&ad=GB
However 2014 is not listed. Is this an oversight or is SQL Server 2014 really not supported?
Thanks,
Chris

SQL Server 2014 support for Workflow Manager?

Is this configuration supported?
The prerequisite requirements for Workflow Manager are out of date and do not even list SQL 2012 R2 as a supported DB server.

Hi JB
We installed Workflow Manager 1.0 on a Dev SharePoint 2013 SP1 + April 2014 CU Farm running Against SQLServer 2014 which I suspect in not much different under the hood to your SQL2012R2.

SQL Server 2014 Express LocalDB automatic instance is not created

I have just installed SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition and noticed that there is no v12.0 automatic instance. Instead, there is MSSQLLocalDB automatic instance. Is this a bug?

Hi Alex,
According to your description, we need to verify if you install SQL Server 2014 Developer edition and SQL Server 2014 express edition. LocalDB is only just a lightweight version of Express version that has all its programmability features. If you install
SQL Server 2014 express LocalDB, please ensure you install automatic instances of LocalDB and not named instance of LocalDB. Usually,
when the target machine has the specified version of LocalDB installed, the automatic instance of
LocalDB for that version is available on the target machine as well. The name for the automatic instance is a single v character followed by the
LocalDB release version number in the format
xx.x. For example, v12.0 represents SQL Server 2014. For more information, see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh510202(v=sql.120).aspx
If the issue still exists after checking the above suggestions, you can submit a feedback to Microsoft such issues, I would recommend to submit it to the Microsoft Connect at this link
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/Feedback. This connect site will serve as a connecting point between you and Microsoft, and ultimately the large community for you and Microsoft to
interact with. Your feedback enables Microsoft to offer the best software and deliver superior services, meanwhile you can learn more about and contribute to the exciting projects on Microsoft Connect.

How to restore a database backup taken from a SQL Server 2012 instance to SQL Server 2014

I am trying to restore a database backup taken from a SQL Server 2012 instance to my new SQL Server 2014 instance. When I add the .bak through the Mgmt studio UI, it does not seem to find a backup set in the file so I cannot proceed (does not give
me any errors though either. I tried restoring through TSQL command but only got a database restore terminating abnormally error with no other details. How can I restore this database to SQL 2014?

Hello,
Please examine SQL Server Error Log and share with us any error you can find. The following article may locate the log:

How to install a Business Contact Manager 2013 database on SQL Server 2014

When I use the BCM Database Tool 2013 to create a database on a server, it doesn't pick up on any of my SQL Server 2014 instances. So far I can only get it to pick up SQL Server 2008 R2 instances in order to install the BCM database.
Someone mentioned that it works with SQL Server 2012, so is there any way to get it work on the 2014 version? I don't want to have to install 2008 or 2012 just for the sake of BCM.

event if 3355 means 3 things:
The SQL Server might be offline.
The SharePoint Foundation database access account might not have the necessary permissions to communicate with the SQL Server.
A firewall that runs on either the local server or on SQL Server might be blocking network communications.
Big question, how you trying to connect SQL windows or sql authentication? is it throwing error on Config wizard or somewhere else?
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog

Installing Sql Server 2014 Management studio problem

Hi,
I installed a full SQL 2014 evaluation ISO on a 64 bit Windows server 2008 R2 machine:
(file name - SQLServer2014SP1-FullSlipstream-x64-ENU.ISO)
On this machine I already have a instance of SQL Server 2008 Express running (with Management Studio).
I try to download on the Management studio either from:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42299
or
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver2014express.aspx
and the download just won't start. Am I missing anything ?
Is the management studio already on the ISO I installed?
Thanks,
Assaf

SQL Server 2014: Resource pool 'Pool_AdventureWorks2012'

Message after installing SQL Server 2014 in-memory OLTP sample:
A binding has been created. Take database 'AdventureWorks2012' offline and then bring it back online to begin using resource pool 'Pool_AdventureWorks2012'.
This is the definition:

Hi Kalman Toth,
According to your description, after you binding the database to the resource pool for binding to take effect via the system function
sp_xtp_bind_db_resource_pool, You must take the database offline and back online. If your database was bound to an a different pool earlier, this removes the allocated memory from the previous resource pool and memory allocations for your memory-optimized
table and indexes will now come from the resource pool newly bound with the database. Please refer to the following Transact-SQL statement.
USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE <your database name> SET OFFLINE
GO
ALTER DATABASE <your database name> SET ONLINE
GO
USE <database name>
GO
There are detail about binding a database with Memory-Optimized tables to a resource pool, you can review the following article.

Difference between SQL SERVER 2008 & SQL SERVER 2012 & SQL SERVER 2014

Difference between SQL SERVER 2008 & SQL SERVER 2012 & SQL SERVER 2014 ?

What sort of databases do you have OLTP? Data warehouse? What requirements do you have for High Availability?
The main features for SQL 2012/2014, as I see it:
o Support for window functions, which makes it possible to write fast queries for running totals, sliding windows etc.
o Columnstore indexes, which can speed up your data warehouse enormously. But of no interest for OLTP. Only writable in SQL 2014.
o AlwaysOn and Availability Groups, a vastly improve story for high availability and disaster recovery.
o try_convert/try_cast, you can now easily filter out values from a column which does not convert to a number. A small but essential feature.
o In memory-OLTP, a new in-memory engine in SQL 2014. This far with very limited feature set, and quite specialised.
Of the points above, the second and third require Enterprise Edition, the first and fourth are in all editions. For the last, I don't think Microsoft has announced anything yet.
There are also new stuff in the BI area, but that's out of my league.
And, oh, there is a new licensing model - which I think is holding more than one customer back.

SQL Server 2014 reseting isolation level

Hi,
Working with C# application accessing SQL Server 2012 and 2014 using ADO.NET.
There seem to be a change regarding isolation level reset when returning connection to pool.
Previous versions of SQL Server does not reset the isolation level on the connection (unfortunately) as claimed here (http://support.microsoft.com/?id=972915).
However it seems this has changed with SQL Server 2014.
If running the attached code it shows that the isolation level in fact is reset when running against a SQL Server 2014 instance but not 2012.
Can anyone on the SQL Server team confirm that this is an intended change that is here to stay? I have not seen any documentation on this so far in the behavior changes documented here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143359.aspx
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
TestIsolationLevelReset();
Console.ReadLine();
public static void TestIsolationLevelReset()
var connectionString = @"Data Source=(local); Integrated Security=true; Initial Catalog=master;";
var commandText = @"select cast (transaction_isolation_level as nvarchar) + ' - ' + CAST(@@spid as nvarchar) from sys.dm_exec_sessions where (session_id = @@SPID)";
using (var conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
conn.Open();
var cmd = new SqlCommand(commandText, conn);
Console.WriteLine(cmd.ExecuteScalar());
using (var tran = new TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.Required, new TransactionOptions() { IsolationLevel = IsolationLevel.Serializable }))
using (var conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
conn.Open();
var cmd = new SqlCommand(commandText, conn);
Console.WriteLine(cmd.ExecuteScalar());
tran.Complete();
using (var conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
conn.Open();
var cmd = new SqlCommand(commandText, conn);
Console.WriteLine(cmd.ExecuteScalar());

Is that possible to know, or must I always ask SQL Server what has been negotiated?
The negotiated version is the highest version supported by both client and server. According to
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd304523.aspx, the Server versions are:
SQL Server 7.0 7.0
SQL Server 2000 7.1
SQL Server 2000 SP1 7.1 Revision 1
SQL Server 2005 7.2
SQL Server 2008 7.3.A
SQL Server 2008 R2 7.3.B
SQL Server 2012 7.4
SQL Server 2014 7.4
I can't speak to the exact TDS versions supported by SqlClient. On my PC, .NET 4.0 and above against a SQL 2014 box used TDS 7.4 where as 3.5 and earlier used TDS 7.3.
Based on this, I wouldn't expect the isolation level behavior change if SQL Server 2012 and 2014 is the only difference. What version of .NET are you using?

How to run SQL SERVER 2014 EXPRESS ON WINDOWS 8?
