How to detect whether a database was created by Restoring (from SQL Server Enterprise Manager) or by Attaching (from SQL Server Enterprise Manager)

Ours is a SQL Server Express Edition 2008-R2 - Windows Forms based application. We have a backup/restore utility provided with our software which performs some logical checks before restoring a backup to ensure that the backup is functionally valid.
However, our clients often use the SQL Server Enterprise Manager utility to 1) Restore backups or 2) Attach data files (kept aside before formatting) directly. This type of action bypasses all our functional checks and allows the user to restore an invalid
backup.
We want to detect that a database was restored/attached and may be we will stop the software from loading if such a thing happened. We think that this information (attach/restore) should be available within some table of SQL Server itself but don't know the
right location/query.
If any change is required in our software to achieve the above, we are ready to do the same too, e.g. may be we need to store some data at some point of time to make the detection happen, please advise.
So, how can we detect that
A database backup was restored using SQL Server Management Utility
(Note: MSDB.Restorehistory may not be a good option as we have often found this table blank for unknown reasons even after backup was restored and just in case user restores the MSDB from MSDB backup or MSDB template due to a data corruption, may be due to
abnormal shutdown of system, then the RestoreHistory table data is gone)
A database was created by attaching a data/log file using SQL Server Management Utility
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Hi,
For Enterprise edition, we can enable Auditing to audit BACKUP_RESTORE_GROUP in a server audit specification. However, SQL Server audit (fine-grained auditing) feature is not available for the SQL Server Express.
Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2008 R2
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993(v=sql.105).aspx
When a database is attached, SQL Server ERRORLOG will record “Starting up database 'DBNAME'.”
Using ALTER DATABASE OFFLINE and ONLINE will re-open the database files under the SQL Server, the SQL Server error log also contains the following informational message: “Setting database option ONLINE to ON for database 'DBNAME'.”

SP 2013 - Database Recovery Mode When Using SQL Server Mirroring

Hello Community,
Our DBA is configuring a High Availability Architecture for our SharePoint 2013 Farm. Essentially he is using SQL Server Database mirroring with a clustered automatic failover using a witness server. He has informed me that mirroring requires
that the databases are set to Full Recovery Mode, but that several of the databases are set to Simple Recovery Mode, the databases are the following:
SearchService_DB
SearchService_DB_CrawlStore
SearchService_DB_AnalyticsReportingStore
SearchService_DB_LinksStore
WSS_UsageApplication
User_Profile_DB
User_Sync_DB
User_Social_DB
However, when I checked the following article -
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc678868.aspx - I see that Simple Recovery Mode is the default configuration for these databases. So, finally, here is my question - will it be detrimental to these databases to set them to the Full Recovery
Mode?
Thanks!

This really depends on your recovery objectives. The main reason for taking log backups, aside from truncating the log, is to be able to recover to a specific point-in-time. This is very helpful in mission-critical, highly transactional systems. I have not
seen a SharePoint environment require a point-in-time restore of the content or application service database. So for this case, you can overwrite the LDF bakups. Just make sure that you can recover your databases appropriately and meet your recovery objectives
on the farm level.
As far as the log file growth is concerned, you are correct. If you cap the size of your LDF file to let's say 10 GB, regular log backups will truncate the log, thereby, having space for additional transaction log records. The only risk here is when your
log backups are not frequent enough that the LDF file fills up before the next log backup runs to truncate the log. You run the risk of your database behaving as read-only and that will affect the site collections/applications using those databases

How do i get a backed up db on sql server 2000 be restored on sql server 2014 express

Is there a way with this? I'm getting a message that it is not supported when i'm trying to restore it.
Is there a way that I could at least get the data on backed up db on sql server 2000 be transfer to sql server 2014 express if restoring is really not supported?
Any advice is highly appreciated.

You can restore first on any SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2 instance. This will only be used to convert the database backups from the older SQL Server 2000
format which can’t be restored to SQL Server 2014 to the newer SQL Server 2008 / R2 format which can be.

1st scenario
When in a runtime, it's keep appear a dialog box. This dialog box ask me to suppy Server, User ID, Password and Database. Once all information is supplied, my report display the data as expected
2nd scenario
I change my report using OLE DB (ADO) -> Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server -> checked on Integrated Security. I just choose Server, and Database. I assume me using Windows Authentication
When in a runtime, there's no dialog box as above. My report display the data as expected. really cool
Look's like, when report using SQL Server Authentication there's some problem. but, when report using Windows Authentication, it's fine.
I'm looking for comment. Please help me

Hello,
MS SQL Server 2008 requires you to install the MS Client Tools for 2008.
Once install then update all of your reports to use the SQL Native 10 as the OLE DB driver.
The try again, if it still fails search, lots of sample log on code in this forum.

Using SQL Server instead of OLite

Has anyone had any luck with this? I am really not too familiar with the Oracle setup and due to experience, feel much more comfortable using SQL Server.
I read this thread where it talks about using other databases instead of Oracle Lite, but I can't seem to get it to work for SQL Server.
How to use a non-Oracle database?
I can get the ddl file to install and configure for SQL, but I'm having problems getting the JDBC connections to work in the data-sources.xml config file. Can anyone PLEASE... help me here? I've been screwing with this for a few hours, and haven't had much luck and I'm getting really frustrated. I downloaded the DataDirect JDBC drivers, but I'm not sure what I need to do with them in order to get this to work.
Thanks,
TC

Hi TC,
I circled back with the team. The only set of drivers that we currently support for Microsoft SQL Server are the DataDirect drivers. You should be able to download evaluation versions from their web site and their configuration doc do a good job of describing the configuration string you will need to use to set up the data source.
Let us know if it does not work as advertized.
I hope this helps.

Month Display problem in OBI using SQL server

Hi I am using SQL Server and in one of the reports that I am producing the month is displayed as
CAL_MONTH
APRIL
AUGUST
DECEMBER
FEBRUARY
JANUARY
JULY
JUNE
MARCH
MAY
NOVEMBER
OCTOBER
SEPTEMBER
instead of
CAL_MONTH
JANUARY
FEBRUARY
MARCh
I used the Evaluate function that I used in Cube (ESSBASE) where it worked OK.
I created a logical column "Sort Order" and used the following expression:
EVALUATE('Rank( %1.dimension.currentmember,%2.members)' AS INTEGER , "MIC"."MIC_DL"."dbo"."DM_DATE"."CAL_MONTH", "MIC"."MIC_DL"."dbo"."DM_DATE"."CAL_MONTH")
Then I set the the Sort Order column with the CAL_MONTH column.
But this is giving me the following error when retrieving thru presentation layer
Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred.

[nQSError: 16002] Cannot obtain number of columns for the query result. (HY000)
SQL Issued: SELECT DM_DATE.CAL_MONTH saw_0 FROM MIC_DL ORDER BY saw_0
I used the expression Rankover in place of Rank but nothing fruitful.
Pls. guide.

Could anyone guide on this pls....
I could create a duplicate column containing the vlaues 1,2 .....for the month and use "Case - When " expression but the table has already been built with Jan, Feb ......
Pls. help.

Sorry, missed the message from the errorlog in the original post. You shouldn't have included that big .Net dump that hid the important facts. :-)
My first Google attempt on that message (which I have never seen before) suggests that the TCP Enpoint is stopped, so try this:
ALTER ENDPOINT [TSQL Default TCP]

Improve the performance in stored procedure using sql server 2008 - esp where clause in very big table - Urgent

Hi,
I am looking for inputs in tuning stored procedure using sql server 2008. l am new to performance tuning in sql,plsql and oracle. currently facing issue in stored procedure - need to increase the performance by code optmization/filtering the records using where clause in larger table., the requirement is Stored procedure generate Audit Report which is accessed by approx. 10 Admin Users typically 2-3 times a day by each Admin users.
It has got CTE ( common table expression ) which is referred 2 time within SP. This CTE is very big and fetches records from several tables without where clause. This causes several records to be fetched from DB and then needed processing. This stored procedure is running in pre prod server which has 6gb of memory and built on virtual server and the same proc ran good in prod server which has 64gb of ram with physical server (40sec). and the execution time in pre prod is 1min 9seconds which needs to be reduced upto 10secs or so will be the solution. and also the exec time differs from time to time. sometimes it is 50sec and sometimes 1min 9seconds..
Pl provide what is the best option/practise to use where clause to filter the records and tool to be used to tune the procedure like execution plan, sql profiler?? I am using toad for sqlserver 5.7. Here I see execution plan tab available while running the SP. but when i run it throws an error. Pl help and provide inputs.
Thanks,
Viji

You've asked a SQL Server question in an Oracle forum. I'm expecting that this will get locked momentarily when a moderator drops by.
Microsoft has its own forums for SQL Server, you'll have more luck over there. When you do go there, however, you'll almost certainly get more help if you can pare down the problem (or at least better explain what your code is doing). Very few people want to read hundreds of lines of code, guess what's it's supposed to do, guess what is slow, and then guess at how to improve things. Posting query plans, the results of profiling, cutting out any code that is unnecessary to the performance problem, etc. will get you much better answers.

From SharePoint Content Database, Using SQL-Server Query how to fetch the 'Document GUID' based on 'Content Type'

I want to get all the documents based on content type using SQL Server Query. I know that, querying the content database without using API is not advisable, but still i want to perform this action through SQL Server Query. Can someone assist ?

You're right, it's not advisable, may result in corruption of your databases and might impact performance and stability. But assuming you're happy to do that then it is possible.
Before you go down that route, have you considered using something more safe like PowerShell? I've seen a script exactly like the one you describe and it would take far less time to do it through PS than it would through SQL.

Running multiple SSIS packages using SQL Server Agent question.

I have a multitude of SSIS packages I want to run using SQL Server Agent. What would the best practice be for running these jobs using SQL Server Agent? One job per package or running all pakages from one job? If you have an answer can
you explain the technical reasoning behind your answer? Thanks in advance.
Stan Benner

Hi, maybe a bit more analysis will give a better answer
Do all the packages have to run in sequence? (if yes, single job better)
Can the list of packages to be executed be grouped by dependency (ex package 1,2 and 5 must run in sequence and can be executed by one job, while package 3,4 are not dependent on package 1,2 and 5 can be run by a separate job).
Can any jobs be run in parallel?
How often will the package execution sequence change?
How will you deploy your packages and job? (the more jobs to create the more install script needed and upgrade scenarios become messy).
My personal preference:
I create ONE ssis package which is executed by ONE sql agent job. lets call this 'PackageExecutionWrapper.dtsx'
PackageExectionWrapper then contains multiple 'Execute Package' tasks for the packages you want to execute.
In the package you can apply any package execution rules - which packages have to run after the other, which packages can run concurrently, which packages should only run if previous succeeded.
If you need to change the sequence, simple, just update the PackageExecutionWrapper package.
