How do I set up Azure Sql Server to have multiple instances?

Hi all;
We are setting up a new SAAS application on Azure and while we have used Azure before, not at this level of multiple apps, etc.
We plan to have both a web app and a cloud app in both a US and EU data center. They need to hit a common database because requests will go to the closest data center via traffic manager and a lot of the data works off of the customer table. And a customer
(company) can have users in both the U.S. and E.U.
Is there a way to set up Azure Sql Server so it has instances in both data centers, and Azure keeps them synchronized? If I understand sharding right, that is not what we need as someone hitting either data center could be requesting any of the data in the
DB.
thanks - dave

Made the world's coolest reporting & docgen system even more amazing

Hi,
As far as I am aware, when you set the webapp/cloudapp to connect to a database you will have to specify the connection string in the app. The app will hit the database which is mentioned in the connection string you have specified. So it is not automatic
or Traffic manager. You have full control over it as you can tell your app to connect whichever database you want.The database could be located in any region, however the you have to keep latency in mind as the app in US Datacenter could be calling the Database
in EU, if that is they way it is setup.
You can have separate databases in each region and use Azure Data Sync
to have the database synchronized, however please keep in mind that Azure Data Sync is in Preview.

Mekh.

SQL Server Always On Multiple Instances

I have 2 instances on 2 server for each I have the default set up and then an instance called Test.
i.e. Server1, Server2 and Server1/Test, Server2/Test
I have set up "Always on", on the default instances, and have a database called Test on both so I know that is working correctly.
As soon as the Server1/Test and Server2/Test instances are set up it automatically picks up the Always On Group and Test database.
Is it possible to stop this as I would like to use the separate instance for different databases?
Thanks
Chris

UPDATE
Chris opened support case with Microsoft and fortunately it came to my notice. Based on our troubleshooting we found that it was connection to wrong instance via management studio "registered server"
After giving proper port, the issue was resolved.
Nice talking to you Chris. Thanks!

How to install and configure the SQL Server

Hi All,
We have to install SQL server in the new server because the old server is crash and need to upgrade. Please advice How to install and configure the SQL Server to run SAP Business One 8.8 successfully and what part we do have to give attention.
Kind Rgds,
Steve

Hi,
Try this solution:
The step-by-step installation guide can be found in the documentation included in the installation media. (\Documentation\SystemSetup\AdministratorGuide_SQL.pdf).
Below are some important parts that you should pay attention to during the Installation process.
Resolution
Collation setting: It must be set as SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS,even the company DB is non-english location. The company DB will be created as corresponding collation settings automatically.
Instance and TCP Port : It is recommended to run SBO on default instance and TCP port 1433. Otherwise,some optional components such as B1i may not work properly.
Native Client: SQL Server Native Client should be installed on every client machine to enable the ODBC connection to DB server.
Rgds,

How to create CATALOG with MS SQL Server?

Connection class has getCatalog(strCatalog) method. In order to use it, we must create CATALOG in Database?
How to create CATALOG with MS SQL Server?
Help me, please!!!

You do not create these for any database, this is part of the Connection metadata.
The Catalog is the third level of table-like database object qualification as in "Catalog.Schema.Table". For SQLServer the qualification scheme is "Database.Owner.Table" and I would be surprised if they reported anything for the current connections getCatalog() method call.
What many people do is avoid table qualification altogether by setting the connection's context in a database proprietary manner and then keeping the SQL as clean as possible. For many ODBC and JDBC drivers this can be set in the configuration. For MS SQLServer you can also execute a "USE dbname" statement on the connection to avoid table qualification.

Setting up Microsoft SQL Server datasource in Websphere 4.0

Does anyone know how to setup an SQL Server jdbc driver in Websphere 4.0? I am using jdbc driver from jTurbo. But I am having trouble specifying the proper URL and other datasource settings in Websphere 4.0 (or WTE) server configuration.

Hi,
Please find the extract from jTurbo site (http://www.newatlanta.com/support/jturbo/third-party.jsp#WebSphere)
which will explain the steps to follow for setting up Microsoft SQL Server datasource
in Websphere 4.0 using jTurbo jdbc driver.
1.Always make sure the JTurbo.jar is set in your classpath.
2.Started "WebSphere Admin Server"
3.Open "WebSphere Administrative Console"
4.Install the JTurbo Driver into WAS by modifying the following field of "Admin DB Driver"
Name: JTurbo
Class Name: com.ashna.jturbo.driver.Driver
URL prefix: jdbc:JTurbo://localhost/pubs
JTA Enabled: false
(apply changes which resulted in the installation of JTurbo Driver)
5.Selected "Create Data Source" in Console "Wizards" drop down
6.Selected "Use an already installed JDBC Driver" JDBC Option
7.Specified "my ds name" as the "Data Source Name"
Specified "pubs" as the "Database Name" pull down is showing "JTurbo"
This should sucessfully create a new data source by the name of "my ds name".
Also there is an excellent document on "Configuring the Merant ConnectJDBC data source for MS SQL Server for the WebSphere Application Server Advanced Single Server Edition" at http://www-4.ibm.com/software/webservers/appserv/doc/v40/ae/infocenter/was/was402/rn112253.4.html .
Hope this helps. Good luck.

How to change Rendering Extension in sql server Reporting Services based on User Permissions

Hi,
I want to provide SQL server reporting services rendering extension based on user Access.
For Example
User1 can have options of Rendering to EXCEL and PDF
User2 can have a option of CSV
i read one article which is useful for report basis rendering extension changes. but i want to give user basis rendering options.
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/3569/how-to-change-rendering-extensions-in-sql-server-reporting-services/?utm_source=dailynewsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=headline&utm_campaign=20150406
Thanks in advance.
GVRSPK VENI

You can use a data driven subscription for that
Maintain a table with rendering extension information for various users ie their AD user login. Then setup a data driven subscription based on table values
You will be creating a dataset with query for retrieving userid as well as rendering extensions and then just set the value as Get value from database for render Format and To properties
For more details refer

How to enable remote connections in SQL Server 2008

I'm trying to enable remote connections in SQL Server 2008 R2 as described in the following article. I see the error message at the top of the article.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/walzenbach/archive/2010/04/14/how-to-enable-remote-connections-in-sql-server-2008.aspx
One step in the article describes how to enable TCP/IP in Configuration Manager.  Specifically it says that
'SQL Server NETWORK Configuration' should have TCP/IP enabled.
The issue I've encountered is that my Configuration Manager
is different than what appears in the article. My Configuration Manager shows the following:
SQL Server 2005 Services
SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration (32 bit)
      - Protocols for SQLExpress
SQL Native Client Configuration (32 bit)
       - Client protocols
       - Aliases
Note that I see 'SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration'
rather than that for 2008. When 'Protocols for SQLExpress'
is expanded, there is a TCP/IP setting, but it's disabled and I see an
Access Denied message if I try to enable this.
I also see a TCP/IP setting under Client protocols and successfully enabled this. This uses port 1433 and I configured my firewall to accomodate this port as suggested in the article.
I also followed the other steps in the article, but still don't have remote access to SQL Server 2008 R2. (I can access it from the office.) I'm wondering if this remote access issue is because SQL Server
2008 Network Configuration does not appear in Configuration Manager
and if so, I'm interested in how this might be resolved. (I'm running Windows 7 - 64 bit.)
I'd appreciate any ideas on this. Thanks.

Failed to set security on SQL Server registry key. Error: 2

Hi,
I have a Primary site (mixed mode) running SCCM 2007 SP1 for many months now with no issues.
This site is made up of two Win 2008 sp2 servers sharing the SCCM roles:-
SCCM01 - Site server, DP, RP, PXE and SQL2005 hosting the SCCM database
SCCM02 – SUP, MP, FSP, SLP
The SQL2005 on SCCM01 is running under a domain service account called
domain\service_sccm which is also a sysadmin in SQL as is the SCCM02 server.
In an effort to resolve the isse I have made this account a Domain Admin.
I have also used this account to log onto SEC01 to run the Secondary Site installation and to be the SQL Service account.
I'm now trying to add a Secondary Site on a Domain Controller called SEC01 (also Win2008 sp2) and on the same LAN as the SCCM01/02.
This is where I get problems.
I run the installation locally on the Sec Site server (DC) as a Domain Admin and the installation completes OK (all green ticks),
the ComponentSetup.log and Pre-Reqs are all good as well however when I check the ConfigMgrSetup.log I see the below -
Failed to set security on SQL Server registry key. Error: 2.
<11-09-2010 22:46:59> SMS Setup full version is 4.00.6221.1000

<11-09-2010 22:47:01> SMS Site Component Manager installation completed.
<11-09-2010 22:47:01> Done with service installation
Adding the PMP role to SEC01 also fails to install and no MPSetup or MPControl logs are created.
WebDav and win2008 roles, features all added and server fully patched.
Despooler.log on SCCM01 seems good and passing keys.
Tried installing to default path and to shortened path such as C:\SCCM
The new secondary site is listed in the console and an address can be added for the Secondary Site
BITS Server Extensions and Remote Differential Compression Features are enabled.
The Group memberships all appear ok:-
SCCM01
Local Admins
contains the sec site server SEC01, SCCM01, installation accounts
SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_001
SEC01 (the sec site server)
SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_001
SCCM02
SEC01
No Local Admins as a DC
SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_002
SCCM01
SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_002
empty
SQL 2005
This has the account logged in during installation as a sysadmin
SCCM02 is also sysadmin
The fundamental issue appears to be that the SEC01$ server account is not being added to SQL Logins (and therefore SCCM database Roles)
therefore the installation cannot complete.
I have tried to manually add the SEC01 account to SQL Logins before installation of Sec Site but this did not work.
Not sure if the fact that SEC01 is a DC may be a factor.
Appreciate any help if anyone has seen this before or can suggest a resolution.
Thanks

After a lot of digging around and head scratching I eventually found the resolution.
The original thread title Error turned out to be a bit of a red herring in that my failure to deploy Sec Sites came down to two separate issues seemingly unrelated to the error message of the thread title.
The first part of the resolution was to manually create the SQL Server accounts for the Sec Site Servers and assign them to the smsdbrole_MP DB role to
let the SQL side of the SCCM install complete a s these were not being created automatically.
This then left the fact that that the installation of the Sec Site completed successfully according to the install logs in C:\ however the DP and MP would
never install.
The big clue was eventually contained in the mpfdm.log errors relating to
**ERROR: Cannot find path for destination inbox SMS_AMT_PROXY_COMPONENT on server REGISTRY SMS_MP_FILE_DISPATCH_MANAGER
and
**ERROR: Cannot find path for destination inbox Asset Intelligence KB Manager on server REGISTRY SMS_MP_FILE_DISPATCH_MANAGER
Thankfully the errors led me to these two blogs:
http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/scassells/archive/2009/07/20/error-cannot-find-path-for-destination-inbox-sms-amt-proxy-component-on-server-registry.aspx
and
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrsetup/thread/5fcc53d4-8629-4b34-9eaa-6cb020eedc13/
As it turned out the SCCM installation registry and folder creation does not complete and I had to manually enter the reg settings as detailed in the
links above to complete the installation. Once I did as described everything worked a treat – all my MPs and DPs are 100% now.
Solutions
Add the following reg keys to each of your effected secondary sites.
Inbox Fix
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\MPFDM\Inboxes]
"Asset Intelligence KB Manager"="E:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Configuration Manager\\inboxes\\AIKbMgr.box"
"SMS_AMT_PROXY_COMPONENT"="E:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Configuration Manager\\inboxes\\amtproxy.box"
Asset Intelligence fix:
Note: you will need to identify the next largest key value.
In my example it was key 49
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Inbox Source\Inbox Definitions\49]
"Inbox Name"="Asset Intelligence KB Manager"
"Relative Path"="inboxes\\AIKbMgr.box"
"NAL Path"=""
"User Rights"=dword:00000000
"Service Rights"=dword:00000004
"Monitoring Enabled"=dword:00000001
"Location Type"=dword:00000001
"Guest Rights"=dword:00000001
AMT registry Fix.
  Note: you will need to identify the next largest key value.
In my example it was key 50
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Inbox Source\Inbox Definitions\50]
"Inbox Name"="SMS_AMT_PROXY_COMPONENT"
"Relative Path"="inboxes\\amtproxy.box"
"NAL Path"=""
"User Rights"=dword:00000000

How to replicate data from MS SQL Server to Oracle

Hi,
Can someone please help me on how to replicate data from MS SQL Server to Oracle 8i database.

Dear,
I'm a student.
I do simple replication on Oracle 8.0.5 successfully. (one master site and one snapshot site). I only use the SQL*Plus and Schema Manager to do.
But when I do advance replication (multimaster replication) I meet many problem. So I don't get the result.
Do you show me the technology to do that ?
Thanks !

How to study for the MCSA: SQL Server Exams?

Hi guys,
Forgive me if this question has already been answered but I'm simply trying to find out the best way to tackle the three exams required for the MCSA in SQL Server. I read a blog post on the Pluralsight website which, in discussing the MCSA in Windows
Server, it was advised that the best approach is to study for all three exams rather than one at a time as there's a certain amount of overlap.
My question is does this apply to SQL Server 2012 too? Or would it be bets to study for, and take, the three exams separately and one at a time? I'm just completing the Trainsignal (now Pluralsight) SQL Server 2012 Administration Essentials 28-video course
and was just about to begin going through the equivalent book when I read the blog post.
My background is mainly in desktop/server support (10years following an IT degree) and before now, have had no real exposure to SQL Server. I was asked about a year ago by my current manager to "keep an eye" on the SQL instances we have and began
by replicating the our fail-over cluster in a virtual environment for testing purposes and to gain an understanding of the set-up. I've since developed a keen interest in SQL Server and plan to get certified...
Many thanks in advance.
Marcus.

My humble recommendation is to study for each exam one at a time. I found 70-461 most difficult exam of SQL Server I have
