P2V SQL Server 2008 R2 HYPER-V Clustering

Hi all,
i have current sql server 2008 environment which have the following requirements:
1. SERVER A with failover cluster 1 node server (physical server)
2. 4 shared disk storage (SAN)
3. The connectivity is HBA
i am supposed to migrate the existing into hyper-v environment which the following information detail:
1. provision CSV in the same storage with existing 4 shared disk storage
2. SERVER B (HYPER-V will be deployed for future sql server cluster)
the scenario is we want to migrate the server A to Server B. 
Please correct my plan as the following detail:
- We want to P2V the existing into SERVER B (Hyper-V).
here is my questions 
1. is it possible the vhd after P2V process is attached into CSV storage ?
2. is it possible the shared storage in the previous environment is re-mapping volume into the Hyper-V ?
sorry if my thread is disorganized, i am novice in this case. need your kind advice for the best practice solve this issue.
please tell me if there is anything less clear.
Best Regards,
ari

First question is why do you want to P2V?  It does not take that much effort to create a new VM and then use SQL tools to backup and restore the databases into the new environment.  Then you are using known and proven tools instead of trying to
make everything work from a P2V.
When you P2V, the process will create virtual hard drives from each physical drive.  If you want to make your SQL Server into a VM, it does not make sense to keep the storage on pass-through disks.  It is better to use VHDs for the storage of a
VM.
Having single node clusters does not make much sense, unless the idea is to immediately add a second node when available.

  • P2V - SQL Server 2008 R2

    Looking for best practices and gotchas on Vmware P2V of SQL Server 2008 R2 server.   This is a production system.  Conversion will take place on weekend. 
    Should we do this as a cold or hot migration?  Stop Services, backup DBs etc? 
    If anyone has done this please share outcome and guidance.
    Thank you and hope to hear from you soon!

  • SCOM 2012 SP1 SQL Server 2008 R2 Clustering Monitoring?

    We have a new print management system that was setup using SQL server 2008 R2 clustering.  Right now we have SQL MP (monitoring)(discover) 6.3.173.1.  They had a failover occur a week ago and SCOM didnt throw any alerts.  As a temporary
    fix, I found some correlated events and setup a monitor for those events on the servers.  However, the system owner wants to know if there is a MP that will monitor for a SQL cluster failover event.  I have looked and looked and cant seem to find
    anything that gives a whole lot of detail on this.
    Thanks
    EFD
    Warm Fuzzies!

    Yes, you can monitor SQL Cluster 2008 using SCOM 2012 SP1. but you need to install SQL MP and Windows Cluster MP and Enable proxy Agent on physical nodes.
    You can refer below link {it's same for SCOM 2012}

  • Error 18452 "Login failed. The login is from an untrusted domain and cannot be used with Windows authentication" on SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition 64-bit SP2 clustered instance

    Hi there,
    I have a Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise x64 SP2 cluster which has 2 SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition x64 SP2
    instances.
    A domain account "Domain\Login" is administrator on both physcial nodes and "sysadmin" on both SQL Server instances.
    Currently both instances are running on same node.
    While logging on to SQL Server instance 2 thru "Domain\Login" using "IP2,port2", I get error 18452 "Login failed. The login is from an untrusted domain and cannot be used with Windows authentication". This happened in the past
    as well but issue resolved post insatllation of SQL Server 2008R2 SP2. This has re-occurred now. But it connects using 'SQLVirtual2\Instance2' without issue.
    Same login with same rights is able to access Instance 1 on both 'SQLVirtual1\Instance1' and "IP1,port1" without any issue.
    Please help resolve the issue.
    Thanks,
    AY

    Hello,
    I Confirm that I encountred the same problem when the first domain controller was dow !!
    During a restarting of the first domain controller, i tried to failover my SQL Server instance to a second node, after that I will be able to authenticate SQL Server Login but Windows Login returns Error 18452 !
    When the firts DC restart finishied restarting every thing was Ok !
    The Question here : Why the cluster instance does'nt used the second DC ???
    Best Regards

    Many thanks

    Hi Foreverduy,
    Before you run SQL Server 2008 express setup, make sure that you have installed Windows installer 4.5 and.NET Framework 3.5 SP1 manually. For more information about the process, please refer to the article:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506(v=sql.100).aspx. Moreover, please turn off all the third-party softwares which could prohibit the installation process.
    According to your error message, the issue could be due to that your account has no rights to install SQL Server, or the corruption on the media.
    Firstly, please ensure that your account has admin rights. Also make sure that you right-click the setup.exe and choose “Run as administrator” to complete the installation.
    Secondly, please check if "msdbdata.mdf" file exists at d:\8268cd7b247d294de359c9\x86\setup\sql_engine_core_inst_msi\PFiles\SqlServr\MSSQL.X\MSSQL\Binn\Template. If it exists, please make sure that your account has read permission to the extracted
    folder.
    However, if the file doesn't exist in the extraction, the media could be corrupt. Please download the
    media
    again and check if the issue still occurs.
    Regards,
    Michelle Li

  • SQL Server 2008 KB2977321 Failed with Error code 1642

    As part of application of security patches via windows update, sql server KB2977321 was applied along with a number of OS security patches. 
    Prior to applying the patches, I stopped the agent, engine, reporting, analysis and full text services.
    The Sql server build prior to windows update was (for both instances):

    Detail description of this patch package is: PatchId=KB2977321_sql_common_core_Cpu64 PatchVersion=10.3.5520.0 BaselinePackageId=sql_common_core_Cpu64 BaselineVersion=10.3.5500.0; PatchFileName=sql_common_core.msp PatchCode={CF023E0F-3A19-4DBF-BCA3-0F664B447EDB}
    The instance came up successfully and seems to be operating normally. Was there an error or was the KB installed correctly as the result of the windows update process indicated? 
    Is there a way I can verify this? 

    I did some research on this particular KB article and it seems to be related to Master Data Services which I am not using.  The KB was pushed automatically and I am not sure that it was a required update in our situation. I'd like to understand exactly
    what caused the error message before initiating a repair as this is a production and not a test environment.  Everything appears to be functioning properly and I have received direction from Microsoft in the past that information in some logs identified
    as level 'error' are in fact to be ignored.  I checked the windows update and this KB shows 'Successful' rather than failed or cancelled.
    I would also like more information on why sql server services should not be stopped prior to allowing the OS patches to be applied.   I have received messages in the past that stopping the services before service packs are applied
    prevent the necessity for a reboot of the machine.  I've never heard before that it is a best practice not to stop Sql service prior to applying patches.  Once the services are stopped, I have our infrastructure admin start a VM snapshot on
    the machine then kick off the windows update process. When done, I reboot the machine, test out Sql Server processes and then if all goes well give the ok to release the VM snapshot.  I've supported various databases for 12 years, Sql Server for 5
    years and this is the first time I've heard stopping the service manually can cause problems.  If that is the case, I will certainly change how I do things....

  • How to Configure Remote Connections To SQL Server 2008 R2 Express

    Post written June 10, 2010 and pertains to:
    SQL Server 2008 R2 Express on both my server and local machines: SQLX_SRV,
    SQLX_LOC
    SQL Server 2008 R2 Management Studio on both my server and local machines:
    MS_SRV, MS_LOC
    Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise installed on a Hyper-V VPS: WS
    SQL Server Configuration Manager on both my server and local machines:
    CMGR_SRV, CMGR_LOC
    Server Manager: SMGR
    I am connecting to my hosting server via Remote Desktop Connection: RDC
    I installed SQLX_SRV and MS_SRV on my hosting server and SQLX_LOC and MS_LOC on my local development machine.  I am able to use MS_LOC to connect to SQLX_LOC and to use MS_SRV to connect to SQLX_SRV.  However I am not able to use MS_LOC to connect
    with SQLX_SRV.  Here's what I have done so far:
    SMGR -> Configuration -> Windows Firewall to turn off the Windows Firewall for Domain, Private and Public profiles.  Obviously I'll change this later, but until I can connect I want to remove as many variables as possible.
    CMGR_SRV -> SQL Server Services to confirm that both SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) and SQL Server Browser services were running.
    CMGR_SRV -> SQL Server Network Configuration -> Protocols for SQLEXPRESS to ENABLE the Shared Memory, Named Pipes, and TCP/IP protocols and DISABLE the deprecated VIA protocol.
    CMGR_SRV -> SQL Server Network Configuration -> Protocols for SQLEXPRESS -> double click TCP/IP to open the TCP/IP properties dialogue.  On the Protocol tab Enabled: Yes, Keep Alive: 30000, changed Listen All to No.  I've tried it both
    ways, but I've got six IP addresses on my server and I wanted to configure SQLEXPRESS to listen to only the first and primary IP.  On the IP Addresses tab went to IPALL and cleared the TCP Dynamic Ports field and entered 1433 in the TCP Port field. 
    For my first and primary IP Address I made sure that Enabled was Yes, I cleared the TCP Dynamic Ports field, and entered 1433 in the TCP Port field.  For all other IP Addresses Enabled was set to No and I cleared both the TCP Dynamic Ports and TCP Port
    fields.
    CMGR_SRV -> SQL Server Services -> SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) right click and Restart.  This of course stopped and restarted my instance of SQLX_SRV enabling the TCP/IP configuration in the previous step to take effect.
    On my server, SQLX_SRV is the only instance of SQL Server running and so it's easy to hard wire it to the default port 1433.
    The instance name for both SQLX_SRV and SQLX_LOC is the default "SQLEXPRESS".  My server machine name is "SERVER1" on the EnglishBrains.com domain.  So the proper local name (local within the context of my remote server as connected via RDC) for
    my instance of SQLX_SRV would be:
    SERVER1\SQLEXPRESS 
    Note the use of a backslash NOT a forward slash. 
    Of course to connect remotely from my development machine, which is not on the same domain as my hosting server, I would need to specify the domain as well, so the SQL Server name becomes:
    SERVER1.EnglishBrains.com\SQLEXPRESS
    I must also use SQL Server Authentication.  Before I can use such a remote connection, however, there are still several configuration steps required.  So on my server (connected via RDC) I used MS_SRV to connect to SQLX_SRV using SERVER1\SQLEXPRESS
    for the server name and Windows Authentication.  Once connected I performed the following steps:
    MS_SRV -> right click the connected parent SERVER1\SQLEXPRESS instance node at the top -> Properties -> Security -> Server authentication: select "SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode".  This will enable connections using either type
    of authentication.
    Next, leaving the Server Properties dialogue open, Connections -> check "Allow remote connections to this server" box.
    Click OK to save these changes and close the Server Properties dialogue.
    MS_SRV -> Security -> right click Logins and select "New Login...", the Login - New dialogue opens.
    On the General page Enter a name for your new login
    Select SQL Server Authorization
    Enter and confirm a password
    Uncheck Enforce password expiration
    Select the default Database and Language
    On the ServerRoles page Public will be checked, also check SysAdmin.  This is probably not a good idea and I'll uncheck this as soon as I can connect to the SQLX_SRV.
    On the User Mapping page select the databases you want your new Login to access and enter the Default Schema of "dbo".
    At the bottom of the User Mapping page you'll see the Database Roles table.  Public will be selected by default.  Also select db_Owner.  Again this is probably not a good idea, and I'll refine this once I can connect.
    On the Status page confirm that "Grant" is checked under "Permission to connect to database engine" and "Enable" is checked under "Login".
    Click OK to save all changes and close the Login - New dialogue.
    With these steps completed you should now be able to use MS_SRV to connect to SQLX_SRV using SQL Server Authentication by supplying the name and password for your new Login.  I tried this and it worked fine.  Next I tried to use this same login
    remotely, that is I went to my local development machine and used MS_LOC to try and connect to SQLX_SRV by using
    SERVER1.EnglishBrains.com\SQLEXPRESS
    and opting for SQL Server Authentication and supplying the name and password of my new login.
    THIS DID NOT WORK??  Instead I get the following error message:
    Cannot connect to SERVER1.EnglishBrains.com\SQLEXPRESS.
    A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider:
    SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
    For help, click:
    http://www.microsoft.com/products/ee/transform.aspx?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=-1
    If you follow the suggested help link, you are told:
    The SQL Server client cannot connect to the server.  This error could be caused by one of the following reasons:
    A specified SQL Server instance name is not valid.
    The TCP, or named pipes protocols are not enabled.
    The firewall on the server has refused the connection.
    The SQL Server Browser service (sqlbrowser) is not started.
    WRONG on all 4 counts!  The instance name IS valid.  Both TCP/IP and Named Pipes protocols are enabled.  The firewall has been shut down, so it is not relevant.  Finally the SQL Server Browser IS started.
    The next thing I tried was to circumvent discovery by the SQL Browser service by using the following syntax to specify the IP address and port directly when specifying the SQL Server name.
    tcp:68.71.134.186,1433
    Using this in the Server Name field I was able to use MS_SRV to successfully connect to SQLX_SRV (using SQL Server Authentication of course) with or without the SQL Browser service running. 
    However when I tried to connect from MS_LOC to SQLX_SRV using this same login (WITH SQL Browser service running just for good measure) it does not work??  I get the following error message:
    Cannot connect to tcp:68.71.134.186,1433.
    A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider:
    TCP Provider, error: 0 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10060)
    For help, click:
    http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=10060&LinkId=20476
    If you follow the help link you are told:
    "The SQL Server client cannot connect to the server. This error could occur because either the firewall on the server has refused the connection or the server is not configured to accept remote connections."
    However, the firewall has been shut down and the server HAS been configured to accept remote connections! 
    I confirmed that i could indeed Ping to 68.71.134.186  and running NetStat -a |find /i "listening" on the server shows that the server is indeed listening at 68.71.134.186 Port 1433 -- which is why I was able to connect to SQLX_SRV using MS_SRV with
    tcp:68.71.134.186,1433 .
    IN SUMMARY: Even though I can connect to my SQLEXPRESS instance multiple ways from the server itself, I cannot connect remotely from my development machine! 
    If anyone can help me figure out why I would be very, very grateful!

    My two cents to help you out on c# code example to configure the remote sql server express.
    Hope it helps. It works, but you have to be extra carefull to read it all and setup the server configuration and netsh commands; also the port fowarding on the router.
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;
    using System.Data.SqlClient;
    namespace sqlremoteconnection
    class Program
    static void Main(string[] args)
    // this is the local sql server connection
    // 192.168.1.101\SQLEXPRESS
    // now, the configuration for remote access:
    // activate SQL SERVER BROWSER - set it to start "automatic"; then START UP
    // SQL Server Configuration Manager
    // --> SQL SERVER BROWSER -> properties -> Service -> Start Mode -> automatic -> apply
    // --> Log On -> Start -> Ok
                // netsh firewall set portopening protocol = TCP port = 1433 name = SQLPort mode = ENABLE scope = all profile = CURRENT
                // netsh firewall set portopening protocol = UDP port = 1434 name = SQLPort mode = ENABLE scope = all profile = CURRENT
                // netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name = SQLPort dir = in protocol = tcp action = allow localport = 1433 remoteip = any profile = PUBLIC
                // netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name = SQLPort dir = in protocol = udp action = allow localport = 1434 remoteip = any profile = PUBLIC
    // VERY IMPORTANT FOR REMOTE ACCESS: you have to add the rules on port fowarding
    // on the router!!!
    // TCP: 1433
    // UDP: 1434
    // or just a personal port like TCP 31433/UDP 31434
    // read carefully the netsh commands above
    // server name: 123.132.24.177\SQLEXPRESS
    // server name: anyurl.myftp.org\SQLEXPRESS,1433 <<-- regular port
    // server name: anyurl.myftp.org\SQLEXPRESS
    // server name: anyurl.myftp.org\SQLEXPRESS,31433 <<-- WOW different PORT here!!!
    SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(
    "user id=sa;" +
    "password=password_goes_here!;" +
    "server=anyurl.myftp.org\\SQLEXPRESS,31433;" +
    //"Trusted_Connection=no;" +
    "database=database_name_here; " +
    "connection timeout=30");
    try
    myConnection.Open();
    catch (Exception e)
    Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());
    try
    SqlDataReader myReader = null;
    SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("select * from mytable", myConnection);

    Console.WriteLine(myReader["tab01_age"].ToString());
    catch (Exception e)

  • SETUP ERROR WHILE INSTALLING SQL SERVER 2008 R2

    Hi ,
    I'm coming across the following error while installing Microsoft SQL Server 2008R2
    SQL Server Setup has encountered the following error:

  • SQL Server 2008 Express Setup Issue SKU

    Hi,
    a  configuration file driven setup worked on roughly 30 machines without problems.
    However, on one certain machine (which is costumer owned in Saudi Arabia) the installation seems to
    be blocked at an early stage. Logfiles reporting something about "SKU", but this makes not clear for me
    what the problem is.
    The Summary.txt is pasted, below this Details.txt is placed (the bottom part which contains the error portion).
    Thanks for help in advance!
    Peter

    Hi,
    a  configuration file driven setup worked on roughly 30 machines without problems.
    However, on one certain machine (which is costumer owned in Saud Arabia) the installation seems to
    be blocked at an early stage. Logfiles reporting something about "Invalid edition ... SKU", but it not clear for me
    what the problem is. 
    The Summary.txt is shown here, below this I will paste Details.txt (the bottom part which contains the error portion).
    Thanks for help in advance!
    Peter

  • Backup Restore With SQL Server 2008 R2 although it succeeded with SQL Server 2008

    Dears;
    I have a Full backup of some DB of around 417 GB within SQL Server 2008 R2 , and when I tried to restore it , i get  stuck several times with the error below :
    Restore failed for Server   (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoExtended)
    A system assertion check has failed. Check the SQL Server error log for details. Typically, an assertion failure is caused by a software bug or data corruption. To check for database corruption, consider
    running DBCC CHECKDB. If you agreed to send dumps to Microsoft during setup, a mini dump will be sent to Microsoft. An update might be available from Microsoft in the latest Service Pack or in a QFE from Technical 
    Although I have restored
     successfully other several Full+ Deferential backups for the same DB while it was in SQL Server 2008 not 2008 R2.
    And so I have rounded all different possible assumptions for such common know error by Microsoft for SQL Server 2000, 2005, 2008 but 
    no way as next:
    1-     
    I have attempted to restore it within 2 environments clustered and non-clustered of SQL Server 2008 R2.
    2-     
    I have attempted to restore verify it and it was so fine .
    3-     
    I have attempted to restore it using Continue_after_error ,no_checksum but no way.
    4-     
    I have attempted to move Backup file to another Storage but no way.
    5-     
    I have scheduled jobs to DBCC
     Checkdb the live DB and it wasn’t any errors since long time right now
    6-     
    I have also DBCC check all master +msdb+model+Tempdb ,and they are so fine
    7-     
    I have also checked all I/O subsystem of SAN and Network controllers , but they are fine evidenced much more by my trial on 2 different environments.
    8-     
    I have also checked Memory and it is so fine all the time since I have 128 GB memory and I control it also so well.
    For DB Design +Structure :
    It has 20 Files containing tables partitioned horizontal +Vertically
     (Schema Partitioning +File Stream partitioning ) through these 20 files.
    I have Data compression of the required tables only.
    I have one table of more than 300 GB alone which is partitioned as mentioned above.
    I have implemented Read Committed Snapshot isolation level using row versioning integrated so well with File stream technology since it is a new feature of SQL 2008 R2.
    DB is in simple recovery model for garbage collection of all file stream data as a result of much Delete /update in images themselves.
     So any one has any idea about such case..How to solve it…?

    Hi Ashwin,
    When i searched with no answers these are listed out. So i thought this is still existing. Now on wards let me check the data and time of latest reply. Thanks for guidance.
    It was happening by oversight. Thanks for guidance.

  • Error on setup failover cluster with Windows 2008 R2 enterprise and SQL Server 2008 R2 (also with SP1)

    Hi!
    The setup process fails with this error:
      Configuration error code:     
    0x1C2074D8@1216@1
      Configuration error description: There was an error setting private property 'VirtualServerName' to value 'CLUSTER02' for resource 'SQL Server'.  Error: Value does not fall within the expected range.
    I have found some hints by google, but nothing really helpfull.
    Has anyone had a simular problem when installing SQL server 2008 R2?
    All posts I found are about sql server 2008 (no R2!).
    The cluster itself is working (storage, network, msdtc, quorum...).
    Any hints?

    Hi Andreas Plachy,
    Please make sure that the Virtual Server Name ‘CLUSTER02’ is unique on the network. In addition, are there any resources named ‘SQL Server’ on the Windows cluster? If that is the case, you may need to rename the related resources to avoid conflicting with
    SQL Server, and try again.

    Instead of installing SQL server instance you selected add node which is to be selected when SQL server installation is to be made on Node which is being added to cluster. Since your OS is not clustered I am sure you selected worng option.
    Please right click on setup file and select run as administrator. Now installation window which pops up on that on left hand side select
    installation and then on page that appears select 'New server standalone installation or add feature to existing installation'.
    You already have SQL server 2008 installed on your machine as per feature discovery report

    I tried installing as adminstrator and in compatability mode with Windows 7/Vista but that didn't work. Trying to install from the dvd or from the extracted files in my drive made no difference.
    I am now wondering if there is a download link for SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer edition with SP2 included (i.e. not just SP2 but the whole application (5GB+) otherwise I am not sure how to install this.

  • Should I Install SQL Server 2008 R2 on a VHDX or Pass-through disk

    Hi,
    I am in going to be setting a virtual server running Windows Server 2008 R2 on my Hyper-V cluster and I will be also adding SQL Server 2008 R2 once the OS is configured. Can you please suggest whether I should setup a VHDX or a pass-through disk? I have
    read articles online suggesting to use a pass-through disk from my SAN but I also read that since Windows Server 2012, VHDX is as good as a pass-through disk, especially because it will allow to have snapshots taken, unlike the pass-through which will not.
    Please advise on whether I should chose a pass-through disk or a VHDX.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Aquila,
    There are three basic types of Virtual Hard Disks (VHDs) that you can use with VMs, such as dynamic VHD, fixed VHD, and differencing disks. Usually, the fixed VHD is almost always the best choice for virtualized SQL Server systems that run a production workload.
    You can use dynamic disks for noncritical production workloads, as well as for testing, training, and lab environments. Pass-through disks offer the highest level of performance for VM storage, however, Pass-through disks can't be moved without incurring downtime,
    and they don't support VM snapshots. For more information, see:http://sqlmag.com/sql-server/sql-server-virtualization-tips
    In addition, there is an article about how to setup boot from VHD for a SQL Server. You can review the following link.
    http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2327/how-to-setup-boot-from-vhd-for-a-sql-server-test-or-development-environment/
