MS SQL Server Database software license details
Hi,
I have three queries regarding buying license from sap for MS SQL server software which will be used for SAP Businees suite application.
If we buy database license directly from Microsoft,
1. Will there be any issue in getting support from sap for database related issues during installation and post go live ?
2. Do we have access to download the database software CD provided by SAP or do we have to get it from Microsoft ?
3. Is there any difference in the database software provided by Microsoft and by SAP?
Please update me as soon as possible.
Regards,
Nalla

No.

If you license from Microsoft you will need to get the media from Microsoft.
> 3. Is there any difference in the database software provided by Microsoft and by SAP?
No difference but SAP provides a script (sql4sap.vbs) that does necessary setups automatically and installs all patches automatically. You will need to do that then manually.

Xcelcius frontend for SQL Server database, minimum license and componets
Experienced with SQL, Crystal, and B1, new to Xcelcius, and confused by components and licensing.
I've been experimenting with Xcelcius Present 2008. Now I want to create an Xcelcius dashboard for a SQL Server 2005 database (Business One company data). For the moment, I am not interested in a reports server, scheduler, etc. If I just want to create a Crystal Report with Xcelcius visuals embedded that displays dynamic SQL Server data to one user, what do I need to buy and install?

SQL Server database details - DBInstanceSummary- Connection Status: Failure
Hi guys,
I have a strange problem with Maps 9.0 in the SQL Server database details -> DBInstanceSummary and DBInstanceProperties I got a failure as shown in the picture below.
This sounds quite strange because I'm able to collect most of Instances and Database infos. And I'm also able to connect with status: Success to other Instances hosted in the same cluster.
Can you give me any good advice?
Thanks in advance

MCT-MCITP-MCSA-MCSE-MS SQL DBAWe can try to see if a detailed log might reveal where the breakdown occurs. To get the detailed log, follow these instructions precisely:
With MAP closed, rename the existing MAP log file which is located in "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\MAP\MapToolkit.log" if the default was used during installation. It is recommended that you include a number or date when renaming so that we can keep the logs
in order if we have to do this again.
Open Notepad as Administrator
Open "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\MAP\Logging.cfg" in Notepad
Change the line that says “.default=Info” to read “.default=Trace2”
Save and close the file
Open MAP (this creates a new log file)
Go to File > Select a Database
In the window that opens, select the radio button called “Create an inventory database” and enter a name
Click ok
On the Overview page in MAP, click on “Perform an inventory”
Choose the "SQL Server with Database Details" inventory scenario
Choose only the manual entry discovery method and enter just one target machine
Make sure that you use the All Computers credentials for the user name and password
Once the inventory has completed, exit MAP
Open Logging.cfg is the same manner as before and change it back to “.default=Info”
ZIP and send us the new log file

How can I get an accurate count of computers (workstations) logged in to my SQL Server database?
We license our software by number of workstations.
I have a query that I have used for years to get an accurate count of the workstations logged in to my SQL Server database. For simplicity, all users use the same login name/password. This is built in to the script that attaches to the DB. They
have access only to that DB with the exception of
USE [Master] GRANT VIEW SERVER STATE to MyUser
The query that has been working is below:
Basically this relies on the mac address (Master.dbo.sysprocesses.net_addre
SELECT COUNT(Users) AS UserCount FROM (SELECT COUNT(Master.dbo.sysprocesses.hostname) AS Users FROM Master.dbo.sysprocesses LEFT OUTER JOIN Master.dbo.sysdatabases ON Master.dbo.sysdatabases.dbid = Master.dbo.sysprocesses.dbid WHERE (Master.dbo.sysdatabases.name = 'MyDatabase') GROUP BY Master.dbo.sysprocesses.net_address) AS UserCount_1
ss), since both Workstation names and ip addresses can be duplicated.
Recently this has stopped working at a number of customers. Suddenly individual workstations are showing multiple net addresses for the same workstation causing a substantial overcount of users. This may be related to SQL Server 2012 - not sure.
What I need is a very reliable way to get a count of workstations logged in to my database.
If anyone can tell me why I am suddenly getting multiple net_addresses for each workstation and how to prevent that that would be one possible solution.
Otherwise if anyone can give me a rock solid way to get a workstation count other than the above that would be great. Our largest customer is 50 users by the way.
Thanks in advance for any help.
KimI think your count is getting skewed because of duplicate rows in sysprocesses because of parallelism. Add DISTINCT to your query:
SELECT COUNT(Users) AS UserCount
FROM
( SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT Master.dbo.sysprocesses.hostname) AS Users
FROM Master.dbo.sysprocesses LEFT OUTER JOIN Master.dbo.sysdatabases
ON Master.dbo.sysdatabases.dbid = Master.dbo.sysprocesses.dbid
WHERE (Master.dbo.sysdatabases.name = 'MyDatabase'
GROUP BY Master.dbo.sysprocesses.net_address) AS UserCount_1

Can Oracle view refer a table in Sql Server Database
Can a view created in Oracle database refer a table created in SQL Server database. If yes, how do we do it. Code will be very help full.
Again, if yes does it require any special software and what would be price of that software.
Thanks for your response in advance.
Venkat SathiamurthyYou would need to configure Oracle Heterogeneous Connectivity to create a database link to the SQL Server system. This can either be done via the Oracle Transparent Gateway for Microsoft SQL Server, which retails for $15,000 per server at http://store.oracle.com or by configuring Oracle Generic Connectivity and using ODBC to go after the SQL Server data. Depending on the operating system you run Oracle on, there may be a free (or cheap) ODBC driver for SQL Server that could be used.

Sql developer won't connect with SQL server database on cluster
Hello,
I have a microsoft SQL server database on a windows cluster. Name for this cluster is like XXX/YYY
When I try to connect to this database with SQL developer, I get a failure, mentioning:
"Status : Failure -Cannot connect to Miscrosoft SQL Server on XXX/YYY"
As far as I know, I have installed the correct jtds driver (version 1.2.5), since I can connect to sql server databases on single server hosts.
Does anyone know how to connect to databases on windows clusters?

I am fairly new to vb.net and have read a few books and followed a few tutorials on youtube, what I would like to know is, are there any disadvantages
to the way I have connected to a SQL database using the SQLControl.vb. A lot of the vb books include data adapter and dataset within the form, I'm not sure if I'm following best practice by have the connection details outside of the form.
My other question is, I have created two connections in the SQLControl and call these connections within the same form using the same data adapter
and dataset. It all works fine but I just wanted to know of any potential issues?

1) You are not using Sepration of concerns for a solution that is doing data access, like using a DAL.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_concerns
2) You are directly issuing SQL commands at the UI, leading to sql injection attacks.
3) You are not using a UI design pattern, which leads you to tightly couple database activity to the UI.
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/228214/Understanding-Basics-of-UI-Design-Pattern-MVC-MVP
@System243trd, parameters are important to prevent SQL injection attacks (people will insert SQL commands into the database if you do not perform basic checking of what you are passing to the database). If you write a stored procedure try to make
the variables the correct SQL server data type to avoid problems later of people trying to call it directly. Darnold924 is right, I see no code to prevent against SQL injection attacks. In addition, during development in some instances LocalSQLDB
database system is used and during deployment you usually need to use the production SQL server database. Moreover, Linq-to-SQL is used on Windows Phone 8.1 and it is required for phone development later and so I highly recommend learning
it if you plan on developing windows phone applications.
@System243trd, If you want the code for the windows phone app I think it uses the MVVM model or that might be for universal apps or regular windows phone apps. I have been using the windows phone Silverlight pivot or panorama template (it might
be pieces of both). I've already submitted to the windows phone marketplace and it had to go through certification first. I plan on later making an article on it but I need to first fix one or two simple problems I have with it. Here's a link to
the source code if you later want to look at the source code (in vb.net):

SQL Server Database - Transaction logs growing largely with Simple Recovery model
Hello,
There is SQL server database on client side in production environment with huge transaction logs.
Requirement :
1. Take database backup
2. Transaction log backup is not required. - so it is set to Simple recovery model.
I am aware that, Simple Recovery model also increases the transaction logs same as in Full Recovery model as given on below link.
http://realsqlguy.com/origins-no-simple-mode-doesnt-disable-the-transaction-log/
Last week, this transaction log became of 1TB size and blocked everything on the database server.
How to over come with this situation?
PS : There are huge bulk uploads to the database tables.
Current Configuration :
1. Simple Recovery model
2. Target Recovery time : 3 Sec
3. Recovery interval : 0
4. No SQL Agent job schedule to shrink database.
5. No other checkpoints created except automatic ones.
Can anyone please guide me to have correct configuration on SQL server for client's production environment?
Please let me know if any other details required from server.
Thank you,
Mittal.@dave_gona,
Thank you for your response.
Can you please explain me this in more details --
What do you mean by one batch ?
1. Number of rows to be inserted at a time ?
2. or Size of data in one cell does matter here.
As in my case, I am clubbing together all the data in one xml (on c# side) and inserting it as one record. Data is large in size, but only 1 record is inserted.
Is it a good idea to shrink transaction log periodically, as it is not happening itself in simple recovery model.
HI Mittal,
Shrinking is bad activity yu should not shrink log files regularly, in rare case if you want to recovery space you may do it.
Have manual chekpoints in Bulk insert operation.
I cannot tell upfront what should be batch size but you can start with 1/4 th of what you are currently inserting.
Most important what does below query return for database
select log_reuse_wait_desc from sys.databases where name='db_name'
The value it returns is what stopping the log from getting cleared and reused.
What is version and editon of SQl server we are talking about. What is output of
select @@version

Get collation of SQL Server database in C# application.
Hi all,
Is there any way to get collation of SQL Server database in C# application.
Basically I have to read collation of two SQL Sever databases and compare them in C# application.
If possible change the collation of two SQL Server databases to same. These databases are empty and newly created one's.
Can any one provide pointers or sample.
Thanks in advance.Hello somsekhark,
May I ask the meaning of this "collation of SQL Server "? Do you mean data collection or you mean the whole database file?
I saw that you want the two database the same and you want to use C#, in this way I would recommend you check the following tutorial as a start:
1. Introuduce to Bulk Copy
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7ek5da1a(v=vs.110).aspx
2. Multiple Bulk Copy Operations
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/s4s223c6(v=vs.110).aspx
However the above things need the target database table exist.
If you don't want this you may think about using SQL Server Management Objects
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162169.aspx
Something like introuduced here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162563.aspx
For more details, I think you question need to be specific.

My Experiences re: Migrating SQL Server Database to Oracle
I am using SQL Developer EA4 for thsi conversion, best attempt yet.
I had numerous problems with this conversion.
1. The wizard asked me to specify the new Oracle database; instead it just ignored this information and created an Oracle database similarly named as the SQL Server database. I also noticed a file name "Migration.out" was produced; it contained errors such as:
Error starting at line 3 in command:
CREATE USER Emulation IDENTIFIED BY Emulation DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP
Error at Command Line:3 Column:36
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

Error starting at line 4 in command:
GRANT CREATE SESSION, RESOURCE, CREATE VIEW, CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW, CREATE SYNONYM,CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM TO Emulation
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges" and
Error starting at line 7 in command:
CREATE USER dbo_COREv13 IDENTIFIED BY dbo_COREv13 DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP
Error at Command Line:7 Column:38
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges" and
Error starting at line 8 in command:
GRANT CREATE SESSION, RESOURCE, CREATE VIEW, CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW, CREATE SYNONYM TO dbo_COREv13
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges".
I followed all of the steps listed in the "Help" section re: Migrations but still ended up with these errors.
2. My schema consists of 1000+ tables; approximately 10 tables were NOT created. When I copied the SQL from Migration.sql making NO changes and pasted it into the new Oracle database it created without issues.
3. While the conversion is taking place, different objects (constraints, indexes, foreign keys, etc) are shown to be copied; their appears to be ordering of these items. Shouln't a dependancy tree be established, and object converted based on this?
4. Several tables, in my case about 250 tables did NOT get any data copied across. No reasons given.
5. A log of all activities should be produced for review and completeness.
6. I tried to use the "Migrate select tables" option but met with no success. Apparently, it makes an assumption that both the "source" and "target" databases wil be of the same type (ie both SQL Server or both Oracle); this does not make any sense to me since the point of the exercise is to migrate data from one database vendor to another. Obviously, different database vendors use differing datatypes for similar data (ie dates).
7. I noticed in the "Migration" sql that the "Connect" statements are not correct; they were missing the "instance name" portion.
8. Also, when I looked in the "MIGRATION" sql, I could not find any entries for the last step of the conversion - the movement of data from SQL Server to Oracle. Is this intentional or an oversight.
I dont want to appear negative on this Migration; I have used SQL Developer since it inception; in my opinion this is the best attempt to date.
Murray SobolHi Murray,
Thanks for this feedback.
There is a lot of questions here, I think some of it boils down to misunderstandings, which we should clarify in the doc.
Hopefully Ill get a video of a migration online soon as well.
But here is a brief break down.
*1.*
"The wizard asked me to specify the new Oracle database; instead it just ignored this information and created an Oracle database similarly named as the SQL Server database."
So this relates to Step 7 of the Migration Wizard. Where you can select the target connection.
SQL Developer doesn't ignore the Target Connection you selected, It just uses it to connect to the target database , not the target schema.
SQL Developer generates a new target schema for the migrated objects. It standard approach is not to generate objects directly into an existing Schema.
The Target Connection is used to create all the migrated objects (including new Oracle Schemas) in your target oracle database. So you should choose an Oracle Target Connection which has enough privileges to create new Schemas and Objects.
But as you have found, it doesn't generate the migrate objects , like tables, ... , directly into your chosen Target Connection.
From the errors you encountered it doesn't sound like the Target Connection (and the underling Oracle Schema) doesn't have the privileges to create other Schemas.
If you use something like a connection to the SYSTEM schema on your target database, it should run OK.
It wont create any objects in SYSTEM, rather it will use SYSTEM privileges to create a new schema (ex: dbo_Northwind) and populate it.
You don't have to use SYSTEM, but you do need a schema with enough privileges to create other schemas.
That is the straight forward way. But if you really need to generate into an existing schema the following steps can be taken.
a)rename the schema under the Converted Database Objects
b)Right click "Converted Databases Objects" and choose generate. it will kick off the Migration Wizard in the correct place
*2.*
My schema consists of 1000+ tables; approximately 10 tables were NOT created. When I copied the SQL from Migration.sql making NO changes and pasted it into the new Oracle database it created without issues.
When you say Migration.sql , is the entire generation file , which can be found in your <outputspecified>/generated/<projectname.modelname>.sql ?
When your say "pasted it into the new Oracle database" , are you running it in SQL Developers SQL Worksheet using the Target Connection.
Basically your migration is all out of shape once the target Schemas are not created. So the above issues (insufficient privileges) has to be resolved first.
Please post back if it is still an issue.
*3.*
While the conversion is taking place, different objects (constraints, indexes, foreign keys, etc) are shown to be copied; their appears to be ordering of these items. Shouln't a dependancy tree be established, and object converted based on this?
Objects are converted in a particular order and their dependencies are persisted so that they can be generated in the correct order.
Are you seeing an issue?
*4.*
Several tables, in my case about 250 tables did NOT get any data copied across. No reasons given.
I'm surprised any tables were populated with data due to the target schema not being created.
The online data move is pretty simple and it does not report or recover very well from issues.
If you are having difficulties once item 1. is resolved, please post an example of the source table and I will give it a go.
For better control of the data move with much more powerful tweaking, error handling, reporting and performance try the offline data move.
SQL Developer can created a suite of scripts which use SQL Servers BCP tool to dump out the data to dat files, and Oracle SQL*Loader tool to insert the data in the dat file into Oracle.
*5.*
A log of all activities should be produced for review and completeness.
The output/generated/<projectname.modelname>.out provides the output of running the generation script.
The migration reports http://dermotoneill.blogspot.com/2010/11/migration-reports-30.html outline what happens during the migration.
Apart from online data move issues, is there any other data missing?
*6.*
I tried to use the "Migrate select tables" option but met with no success. Apparently, it makes an assumption that both the "source" and "target" databases wil be of the same type (ie both SQL Server or both Oracle); this does not make any sense to me since the point of the exercise is to migrate data from one database vendor to another. Obviously, different database vendors use differing datatypes for similar data (ie dates).
Do you mean "Copy To Oracle" ? This option is intended to migrate tables from non Oracle databases like SQL Server to Oracle.
Can you give more details on what issue you are seeing.
*7.*
I noticed in the "Migration" sql that the "Connect" statements are not correct; they were missing the "instance name" portion.
The generation script is meant to be run using SQL Developers SQL Worksheet. I think you only get this "instance name" issue if running from SQL*Plus.
Can you confirm
8. Also, when I looked in the "MIGRATION" sql, I could not find any entries for the last step of the conversion - the movement of data from SQL Server to Oracle. Is this intentional or an oversight.
The online data move is performed separately from creating the objects. It is not script based, it uses JDBC to pump the data from the source database to the target database.
In summary , I would
a) Create a connection to your Target database using your SYSTEM schema
b) Right click on your "Converted Database Objects" and choose "Generate Target"
c) Choose your new "System" connection as the Target Connection
d) Follow the Migration Wizard to the end.
You will end up with a new target Schema and the migrated objects in it.

and the migration reports http://dermotoneill.blogspot.com/2010/11/migration-reports-30.html

We had a disaster with our ECC 6.0 Development system a few days ago. The system is called “DEV”. The SQL Server database server got wiped out and we didn’t have a backup. Luckily, we did have a backup of the database. Our system engineers rebuilt the server and our DBA reinstalled SQL Server and restored the database. The database came up fine, but when we try to start SAP, it fails. “R3trans –d” also fails. The database is SQL Server 2008R2 10.50.2769. The OS is Windows Server 2008R2.
We verified that the “devadm” and “SAPServiceDEV” accounts have permissions on the on the server. We set the following Environment Variables for the devadm account on the database server:
DBMS_TYPE = mss
MSSQL_DBNAME = DEV
MSSQL_SCHEMA = dev
MSSQL_SERVER = <database server name>
SAPLOCALHOST = <database server name>
SAPSYSTEMNAME = DEV
We also set the following Registry Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/SAP/DEV
Type: REG_SZ
Value: AdmUser
String: <database server name>\devadm
We didn’t install any kind of SAP software on the database server.
Is there any kind of SAP components we need to install on the database server? Do we need to run the SAP installer on the database server to get everything setup correctly? I looked at another one of our SQL Server database servers and it has SAP Management Console installed and there is a C:\Program Files\SAP\hostcntl folder. I don't know what that is or it has anything to do with SAP being able to connect to the database.
Here is the error message in the R3trans log file:

Please let me know what we need to do to get SAP to connect to the database.

How I can install and configure dg4odbc to access SQL Server database
I need to link Oracle database (installed in Solaris) to SQL Server database. How can I install and configure dg4odbc. Is there any step by step tutorial or guide available there.Thanks in advance.
Hi,
You can download the DG4ODBC software from either MOS or eDelivery depending which versios you want to install
For 11.2.0.4 -
Patch 13390677: 11.2.0.4.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER
- login to My Oracle Support
- click on 'Patches and Updates'
- search for patch number 13390677
- you may need to press the '+' button to see the platform list
- scroll down the list to and click on the 'Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)' option.
- on the next screen click on the 'Download' option
- from the list of download files choose -
p13390677_112040_platform_5of7.zip
- this is the Gateway media pack and has everything needed for a standalone gateway install.
- unzip the file and run the installer and choose the gateway you want.
For 12.1 -
https://edelivery.oracle.com
Product Pack – Oracle Database
Platform – Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)
Oracle Database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.1.0) Media Pack for Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)
- then for the gateways download –
Oracle Database Gateways 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.1.0) for Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)
- unzip and run the installer
Whichever version you decide I recommend you install into a completely separtae ORACLE_HOME from any existing installs as this makes maintenacne easier.
For the configuration have a look at this note if you have access to My oracle Support -
How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install (Doc ID 561033.1)
If not, then refer to the documentation available from -
Oracle Database Help Center
- choose either 12.1 or 11.2 then the 'Information Integration' option.
You can also install the DG4ODBC on the Windows machine (or any other machine if preferred) and access it from the RDBMS on Solaris.
Regards,
Mike -
Connect & transfer data from SQL Server Database
Hi all,
I would like to connect to MS SQL Server Database and transfer data from the data stored in the SQL Server Database tables into Oracle Tables.
How should I go about doing this ?
P.S.: I am using Oracle 11g and SQL Server 2005

MonkWhat operating system is your Oracle database running on?
If you're running Oracle on Windows, you can use Heterogeneous Services and Generic Connectivity along with the Microsoft SQL Server ODBC driver to create a database link from Oracle to SQL Server. If you're running Oracle on something other than Windows, you can do the same thing, but you would generally need to license either a third party ODBC driver or one of the Oracle Transparent Gateway products.
