Possible to view MS SQL Server Log in SAP GUI?

Hi,
I am wondering if I can view the SQL Server log in SAP GUI using a transaction code.
I don't readily see how to do this with the TEs.  It would be helpful to see things like: who has tried to log into the SQL Server via a Database Management tool : agnostic to SAP.: is SQL Server Management Studio or DBArtisan or other services.
thanks
Chris

Hi chris
Yes,you can view the Sql server log in transaction code ST04 & DBA Cockpit in SAPGUI.
Kindly refer the SAP notes.
139945 - SAP Database Monitor for MS SQL Server

  • Crystal Report 2008 results "Password did not match error" in SQL Server Log

    Hi,
    I am trying to develop some crystal reports using Crystal Report 2008 SP4 to connect to SQL server 2008 through RDO (ODBC). My problem is that anytime Crystal Report is trying to establish a connection with SQL Server, first it tries to connect with the wrong password and results the following error message in SQL Server log:
    Login failed for user 'peyman'. Reason: Password did not match that for the login provided. [CLIENT: 192.168.2.198]
    The login name 'peyman' is the right one as I have quoted the same in setting up ODBC System DSN using "SQL Server Native Client 10". But somehow Crystal Report is taking its chance and trying to connect before prompting me for the password. After this error logged to SQL server side, I can see Crystal Report pops up the prompt to enter DSN password. After supplying password to this prompt, Crystal Report works fine and pulls the data and renders the report without having any more incorrect password error logged to SQL Server.
    The attached file shows the step I am taking to regenerate the issue. I need this to be fixed as anytime uses any of these reports and tries to render it with crystal runtime engine the same error message raises in SQL Server side and logged in the log file.
    Thanks,

    Hi Peyman,
    This is the way it should work, In CR designer when you open the report it does nothing. As soon as you hit the Refresh button then CR tries to use the connection saved with the report. It assumes what is saved with the report is a valid server and connection info. CR simply tries to verify the server is still active.
    If you don't want it to fail in CRD then before opening any report Click the File, Log on Database option and connect. Now when refreshing reports it won't log the failed.
    In the SDK it does the same thing, it assumes the Server info is the same and does try to connect to verify the Server does exist. It only takes a few milli-seconds to do this
    To stop this from happening set the log on info first then it won't log the attempt to connect, it's checking to see if Trusted is allowed.

    Notice it doesn't try to connect first if I set the log on info first using code.
    So nothing we can do to stop SQL server from logging this info. Check with the DBA, possibly they can "filter" out the application attempts to connect or change your work flow in the app.
    If you have a Preview Button to view the report then simply add your Database log on info prompt there if Connectioninfo.Trusted is not true:
    mainSecureDB = rpt.Database.Tables[tableIndex].LogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.IntegratedSecurity;
    if mainSecureDB = false then prompt the user for log on info and set accordingly, if it is true the it should not fail when it connects.
    This is simply a matter of changing your App work flow...
    Thanks

  • "HadrLogCapture" messages in SQL Server Log

    HI 
    After activating  AlwaysOn High Availibility Groups in SQL Server 2012 R2 and adding databases at the availibilitygroup, SQL Server  started genereting lots of messages in the SQL Server Logs. 
    Some example Messages are: "DbId (1466) log capture is rescheduled with partner generation: 45, log consumer id: 9828",
    "HadrLogCapture::BuildMsgBodyForSend - DbId [2535]->[1807D374-DA55-4CAC-A831-AA3C3A8B8EC4] Send From
    saved msg - LogBlockId (0x000221e800000010)"
    Is there is a possibility to stop generating these messages?

    I guess supressing them would be a wrong approach. there is some underlying problem with the data movement which you have between primary and secondary replicas.
    Here are my questions:
    What is the sync setting and how many replicas you have?
    What is the SQL Version? Output of Select @@version query
    Do you see any latency on Dashboard? Check if redo queue or log send queue is high

  • How do I create a view in SQL Server in Visual Studio Express 2013 for Desktop?

    Hi
    I've got a SQL Server database set up using the internal SQL Server in Visual Studio Express 2013 for Desktop. I want to create a view (using tables with one to many relationships) but I don't
    know how to do it.
    Where can I find a good tutorial on creating views in SQL Server in Visual Studio Express 2013 for Desktop? I think Visual Studio Express 2013 for Desktop doesn't have some view designer that
    exists in the non-express version of Visual Studio (if I'm not mistaken). So I think I'd need a tutorial on how to do the actual SQL, unless there is some tool I don't know about.
    Thanks

    Hi ,
    According to your description, if you install SQL Server SQL Server 2014 Express and SQL Server Manager Studio tools (SSMS), if you want to create a view, you can use SSMS. Then if you want to connect to and Diagram your SQL Express Database in Visual Studio
    2013, you can attach the database file by using the .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server in Visual Studio, and create a database diagram via expanding the “Database Diagrams” node.
     For more information, there is similar issue about how to connect to and Diagram your SQL Express Database in Visual Studio 2012 , you can review the following article,

  • Sql server log shipping space consumption

    I have implemented sql server logs shipping from hq to dr server
    The secondary databases are in standby mode .
    The issue is that after configuring it , my dr server is running out of space very rapidly
    I have checked the log shipping folders where the trn files resides and they are of very decent size , and the retention is configured for twenty four hours
    I checked the secondary databases and their size is exactly same as that of the corresponding primary databases
    Could you guys please help me out in identifying the reason behind this odd space increase
    I would be grateful if you could point me to some online resources that explains this matter with depth

    The retention is happening . I have checked the folders they do not have records older then 24 hours .
    I dont know may be its because in the secondary server (Dr) there is no full backup job working , is it because of this the ldf file is getting bigger and bigger but again I far as my understanding goes we cannot take a database full backup in the stand
    by mode .
    The TLog files of log shipped DBs on the secondary will be same size as that of primary. The only way to shrink the TLog files on secondary (I am not advising you to do this) is to shrink them on the primary, force-start the TLog backup job, then the copy
    job, then the restore job on the secondary, which will sync  the size of the TLog file on the secondary. 
    If you have allocated the same sized disk on both primary and secondary for TLog files, then check if the Volume Shadow Copy is consuming the space on the secondary

  • Sql Server Log shipping

    Hi,
       We have configured log shipping in our production setup. Now we are planning to change the service account from local system on which SQL Server is running to to other domain account.  
    Pls let me know changing the service account would have any impact on Log Shipping.
    Regards,
    Varun

    Hi n.varun,
    According to your description, about startup account for SQL Server and SQL Server Agent Services on Log Shipping Servers, if you have placed SQL Servers in a domain, Microsoft recommends that you use a domain account to start SQL Server services. As other
    post, the domain account has full control permissions on  the shared location and is sysadmin role in SQL Server security. Even if
     you change the account form Local System to the domain account in SQL Server Configuration Manager (SSCM), it would have no impact on Log Shipping.
    In addition, if you configure SQL Server Log shipping in a different domain or workgroup, we need to verify that the SQL Server Agent service account running on the secondary server must have read access to the folder that the log backups are located in,
    and has permissions to the local folder that it will copy the logs to, then in secondary server, we can change the SQL Server Agent from using Local System to the domain account you are configuring. For more information, see:
    http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2562/sql-server-log-shipping-to-a-different-domain-or-workgroup/
    There is an detail about how to configure security for SQL Server log shipping, you can review the following link.

  • Warning: Failure to calculate super-latch promotion threshold. appears in SQL Server log

    We are running SQL Server 2008 R2 and have just applied Service Pack 2 to our QA environment.
    Today we noticed this message in the SQL Server log:
    Warning: Failure to calculate super-latch promotion threshold.
    Can someone please tell us what this means and how to fix whatever it is?
    There is no associated error message number.
    We believe this message is new with Service Pack 2.  Can someone tell us for sure?
    This entry has occurred in the middle of the night when nothing was running that we could see and during the day.
    Environment
    SQL server 10.50.4000
    Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard Service pack 1
    Server has 4 processors, 8 Gig of Ram with 4 Gig set for SQL Server.  Usage is generally light as it is a test environment.
    KD

    Its just a warning message about super latch .
    Since SQL 2005 SuperLatches have been introducted which can enable increased performance for accessing the shared pages in the database for a multiple concurrency workload which intrun requires worker threads require SH (shared) latches. No need to set or
    enable any configuration this is performed automatically/dynamically based on the mutli-CPU configuration to promote a latch on a page to be a super-latch. Then this SuperLatch partitions the single latch into array of sublatch structure per CPU core.
    Super latches are way of promoting a latch for entire NUMA Node to reduce contention.

  • Is it possible to set up sql server 2012 alwayson AG for existing scom2012 r2 databases?

    we have an existing scom 2012 r2 management group of which all databases are on a single sql server 2012 sp1 instance on a server 2012 r2 server. Now we want to utilize the sql 2012 alwayson feature to improve the HA and DR. Is it possible to add another
    sql server 2012 sp1 instance on another server 2012 r2 server and configure the two to create AlwaysOn Availability Group for all three scom databases, and how?
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    Microsoft recommends dedicated SQL clusters for the DBs. If you are trying to achive a common backend SQL for your SC 2012 DBs; check this great post by Cameron Fuller:
    http://www.systemcentercentral.com/system-center-2012using-a-common-sql-backend-database-sysctr-scom-scsm/ – it should give you some pointers. Check out the SCOM 2012 sizing helper as well!
    We can set scom 2012 databases in SQL cluster and install SCOM Report Service on different SQL Report Server intance. And RS instance cannot be clustered but can be HA. Failover clustering is supported only for the report server database; you cannot run
    the Report Server service as part of a failover cluster.
