Protect SQL database from untrusted domain

Hello,
I have some problems protecting a SQL 2008 SP3 database from untrusted domain with DPM 2012 R2 RU3. 
When I try to protect the databases, it does not appear in the tree to select them, also when I try to recover a database into untrusted domain it doesnt appear in the tree.
The NT Authority\System has sysadmin permissions, I have all TCP ports open and  the following UDP ports: 389,88,netbios-dgm,netbios-ns.
Any idea ?

Hi
Is this sql Server part of Sql Server Cluster or a standalone Sql Server?

    Hello,
    Yes, for the Windows Authentication to work you should be using the same Windows account and password.
    Are you willing to create SQL logins inside SQL Server and allow your users to connect to SQL Server using SQL Authentication
    instead of Windows Authentication? That could be a solution on a workgroup network.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to move SQL database from one location to another location i.e. from C' drive to D' drive

    Hi, How to move SQL database from one location to another location i.e. from C' drive to D' drive ? please share some link.
    Thanks and Regards, Rangnath Mali

    Hi Rangnath,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to move databased from C drive to D drive.
    You can detach Database so that the files become independent, cut and paste the files from source to destination and attach again.
    There are two similar posts for your reference:

  • Transferring 3 SQL databases from both SQL Express 2005 and Standard to a new physical server

    I am trying to figure out the best method for transferring SQL 2005 databases from 2 different physical servers to a new server running windows server 2008 64bit.
    I own a fully registered copy of Microsoft SQL 2005 32bit Standard Edition. However all of my SQL databases together are only 4GB in size thereby making 2008 SQL Express an option.
    Here is the breakdown of the servers:
    1) (Old Server1) Windows 2003 Server 32bit - SQL Express 2005 32bit
    2) (Old Server2) Windows 2003 Server 32bit - SQL Server 2005 32bit Standard
    3) (New Server) Windows 2008 Server 64bit - (Not sure which version to install)
    **The objective is to migrate 2 SQL databases from Old Server1 and 1 SQL database from Old Server 2 to the New Server. What version should I install on the new server??? Do I go with 2008 express or install the 2005 Standard Edition?
    Pending your response to which version to install, what are the correct steps to migrate (which I have never done before) the databases from both of these servers to the new server?
    I have researched this online and I think this particular situation is unique in that I am transferring from both SQL Express and Standard from 2 different physical servers to a 2008 server that is 64bit. I cannot find anything online that I feel confident
    in trying. Please help me, as I have this migration deadline of this weekend. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Hello,
    You may choose between using backup/restore or using detach/attach methods to migrate the databases.
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187858(v=sql.90).aspx
    You can transfer logins using the following article.
    http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/918992
    To decide if you migrate to Express Edition or to another edition, please review the features supported by each edition. For instance, Express Edition does not support jobs (SQL Server Agent is not available).

  • Connecting to an Azure SQL Database from a Windows C# Form

    Hi,
    Is it possible to connect to an SQL database in Azure from Visual Studio C# 2010 or 2012? If so how is this done. Is it the same as if you were connecting to SQL Express database with the use of a connection string? Any directions or tutorials would be of
    great help!
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    >>Thanks for the reply Paul, That is disappointing. I am trying to get my students to create a C# application that will connect with a database in Azure. Is there another approach besides SQL that I could use?
    Using SQL Azure will work fine (see below), if the students are familiar with SQL Server and SQL Databases it will be great for them to see how it works in the cloud. As an alternative you could explore Azure Storage, using Table Storage, Blob Storage or
    the new Document Database features.
    >>Azure enforces a firewall that prevents direct external access to the database server. You can add a firewall rule allowing external access, but the rules only support connecting from a fixed IP address because you have to specify the numeric IP
    from which connection will be allowed.
    You can specify ranges here, so you could cover a range of IP addresses. You can even specify 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255 and allow all IP addresses, this could be an option if you don't know where the students will be connecting from, and you are using a
    database for the exercise where you don't care too much about the security.
    When I have run classes I typically use an IP address range, for example XXX.YYY.ZZZ.0 to XXX.YYY.ZZZ.255 if the students are accessing from the same classroom, and the external IP address may vary. You may find that they all have the same external IP address
    if they are on the same internal network.
    Also, with many students accessing the same database, you may get throttling if they place a lot of load on it. This is cool, as you can also teach them about transient fault handling and resource throttling :-).

  • DPM 2012 - Protect Exchange 2007 in untrusted domain (either via Creds or Certificates)

    Hi,
    I am trying to protect an Exchange 2007 Server which is in an untrusted domain.
    I have tried using both credentials (isNonDomainServer) and via Certificates and have no joy.  Both methods work in terms of getting the agent installed and communicating with DPM.  The agent shows OK in the console and I can browse
    fine when creating a new PG.
    The problem I have is that "All Exchange Storage Groups" is not available as a selection to backup, obviously neither are any of the information stores.
    First question, is backup of Exchange supported in an untrusted domain?  This says it is:  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh757801.aspx  but I read conflicting advice elsewhere.
    Second question, this is the biggie - any ideas on how to get Exchange visible as a selection?
    So far I have:
    Confirmed that LCR is not configured (I am not sure if it *was* at some point though, because there is a disk on the server labled LCR)
    Checked in the DPM agent directory locally and I can see that ExchangeCmdletsWrapperCurr.errlog is created and/or updated when I expand the server name on the DPM server and the server and information stores are listed in the file.  This tells me communication
    is fine, and that the DPM agent on the exchange server can "see" exchange
    Checked the Exchange VSS writer and it is listed and in a healthy state
    Thanks!

    Upgraded to System Centre 2012 R2 and no difference.  I am assuming that its a compatability\support issue, i.e its not supported.  The documentation says otherwise, but its confusing to say the least.

  • Remove decommissioned SQL database from SCOM

    Hi,
    In SCOM 2007 R2, we have few SQL databases which have been decommissioned & removed but, they are still in Healthy state in SCOM.
    How can I remove these entries from SCOM? I want to remove only the databases.
    TIA.

    Try this  -
    1) Log in to those SQL servers
    2) Stop System center management(SCOM health) service.
    3) Rename Health Service State folder located at "c:\programfiles\system center operations manager\agent\Health Service State:.
    4) Restart System center management(SCOM health) service.
    5) Wait for few minutes so that discoveries can run again and then check in the SCOM console. Those Databases should go away now.
    Please let me know if this did not help or if this is not what you are looking for.
    Thanks, S K Agrawal

  • ACS forwarding from untrusted domain 0x80090325 SEC_E_UNTRUSTED_ROOT

    I have SCOM 2012 R2 Update Rollup 4 installed with 2 management servers running WS12R2 in a single management group in my main AD domain. One of the management servers is also an ACS collector. I have an untrusted AD domain, with a SCOM gateway server in
    it, and I used the gateway to install a SCOM agent on a domain controller in that domain. Now I am trying to configure an ACS forwarder on that untrusted domain controller to talk to the ACS collector back on the management server.
    However, when I restart the
    Microsoft Monitoring Agent Audit Forwarding service on that domain controller, I get this error in its
    Event Viewer > Apps and Services > Operations Manager:
    1/23/2015 5:08:01 PM Source AdtAgent Event ID 4369 Forwarder unsuccessfully tried to connect to the following collector(s):
    <acsCollectorFQDN>:51909, status: 0x80090325 (TCP connect), source:registry addresses tried: <IP>:51909. If the list of collectors is blank, then AdtAgent was unable to locate a collector. Common reasons for this message are: The machinef(s)
    listed is not online. AdtServer is not running on the machine(s) listed. AdtServer on the machine(s) listed is not listening on the specified port. TCP connectivity to the AdtServer machine is blocked by firewall, IPSec, or other filtering mechanism AdtServer
    on the machine(s) listed actively refused the connection (due to policy or current activity load). For detailed failure information, enable trace logging using the TraceFlags registry key and examine the AdtAgent.log in the \temp subdirectory of the Windows
    directory.
    I followed these two articles in order to set up the ACS forwarder on the DC in the untrusted domain: "How to configure security events collection by using Audit Collection Services from computers in untrusted environment?" {1/3/12}https://gefufna.wordpress.com/2012/01/03/how-to-configure-security-events-collection-by-using-audit-collection-services-from-computers-in-untrusted-environment/ "Forwarder

    http://jimmy-scom.blogspot.com/2014/05/forwarder-is-unable-to-connect-to.html
    EXTRA INFO Here are the detailed steps that I took (sorry for all this, but there are an awful number of steps!):
    1) I confirmed that the agent for the DC shows as Healthy in OM Console > Monitoring > Operations Manager > Agent Details > Agent Health State > Agent State (right) pane.
    2) On the ACS collector, I stopped
    Operations Manager Audit Collection Service, then from Admin cmd prompt I did this:
    c:> cd \windows\system32\security\adtserver
    c:> adtserver –c
    } 1 certificates found for server authentication usage.
    Enter the number of the certificate you want AdtServer to use for authenticating to AdtAgent or 0 to quit without saving: 1
    Certificate 1 selected. Attempting to save thumbprint to registry ...
    success.
    Then I started
    Operations Manager Audit Collection Service.
    3) On the DC in the untrusted domain, from Admin cmd prompt I did this:
    c:> cd c:\windows\system32
    c:> adtagent -c
    } No  Issued To                   Issued By                   Expires   
    Thumbprint
     1: <untrustedDCfqdn> <untrustedDomainCA>             2015-11-30 02:44:58    <thumbprint>

    Enter the number of the certificate you want AdtAgent to use for authenticating to AdtServer or 0 to quit without saving: > 1
    } Certificate 1 selected. Attempting to save thumbprint to registry… success.
    4) On the DC in the untrusted domain, I opened mmc > Certificates > Local Computer > Personal > Certificates > I exported the certificate from step 3 to a DER encoded binary X.509 (.CER) file.
    5) I also looked at the Certification Path for the certificate, and figured out which certificate is its Root CA certificate. I copied that certificate to a DER encoded binary X.509 (.CER) file.
    6) I copied the first .CER file to a computer in my main domain, which is at 2012 R2 level. From AD Users and Computers, I created a "dummy" computer object using the NetBios name of the DC back on the untrusted domain. I right clicked the computer
    object > Named Mappings > I added the .CER file, and left "Use Subject for alternate identity" checked. I unchecked "Use Issuer for alternate security identity".
    7) I copied the Root CA certificate .CER file over to the SCOM management server that doubles as my ACS collector, and from there I did mmc > Certificates > Local Computer > Trusted Root Certificates > Certificates > I imported the Root
    CA certificate.
    8) I also went to my CA server on my main domain, I ran pkiview.msc > right clicked “Enterprise PKI” > Manage AD Containers > NTAuthCertificates tab > and I imported the Root CA certificate there as well.
    9) I ran telnet from the DC on the untrusted domain, and confirmed that port 51909 is open from there to the ACS collector on the main domain.
    10) I enabled audit collection fot the DC on the untrusted domain. I did this from OM Console > Monitoring > Operations Manager > Agent Details > Agent Health State > Agent State (second column in middle pane) > I selected the Healthy <untrustedDCfqdn>
    > I clicked Enable Audit Collection.
    Then under "Task Parameters" > i clicked [Override] > for New Value I specified <ACScollectorFQDN>. For task credentials I specified Other account, and specified a domain admin account in the untrusted domain. The result was "The
    task completed successfully. Enable Audit Collection, status:Success".
    11) On the ACS collector, I restarted Operations Manager Audit Collection Service. On the DC in the untrusted domain I restarted Microsoft Monitoring Agent Audit Forwarding service.
    12) Result was this error on the DC in the untrusted domain, in its
    Event Viewer > Apps and Services > Operations Manager

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AdtAgent\Parameters\TraceFlags and set it to 524420 decimal. The resulting c:\windows\temp\AdtAgent.log file only confirmed that I'm getting 0x80090325 errors.
    After all this, why am I getting 0x80090325, which translates to SEC_E_UNTRUSTED_ROOT ??? Did I do something wrong in steps 5, 7 and 8? Thanks for reading all the way through :)
    Marko

    Thanks Yan Li, you gave me an idea. I got the ACS forwarder in the untrusted domain to work (!), by analyzing the setup on the SCOM gateway that I set up in the untrusted domain. I issued the ACS forwarder a certificate from the domain that SCOM is in, INSTEAD
    of configuring the ACS forwarder to use the certificate that it already had from its own domain.
    So the new procedure is: do steps 1 and 2, then instead of step 3 I did this…
    2B) I issued a certificate from the AD domain containing SCOM to the domain controller in the untrusted domain that is my ACS forwarder. I did this from the AD Certificate Services web site, and asked it to use certificate template that I created for the
    SCOM gateway server in the untrusted domain.
    2C) The new certificate appeared in the Personal store of the domain controller. I exported it, then ran the MomCertImport utility so that I would not get an error in the next step (per
    http://www.systemcentercentral.com/scom-deployment-across-multiple-networks/)
    3) On the domain controller in the untrusted domain, I re-ran "adtserver -c", and selected the new certificate.
    3B) I then ran “MomCertImport /Remove”, since I already have a SCOM gateway in the untrusted domain.
    Then I proceeded with steps 4, skipped 5, did 6, skip 7-8, did 9-11, result was this on the DC in the untrusted domain, in its Event Viewer > Apps and Services > Operations Manager
    2/3/2015 12:20:01 PM Source AdtAgent Event ID 4368 Forwarder successfully connected to the following collector:
    <ACScollectorFQDN>:51909, status: 0x0 (success), source: registry
    addresses tried: <IPaddress>:51909
    ACS forwarding works now! I will confirm by repeating the procedure for another domain controller in the untrusted forest.

  • How to Create SQL "Databases" from LV?

    Is there a way to create SQL Databases (not just tables) from inside LabVIEW???  This sould be fairly easy...

    All I know is what is in the SQL Server help file. There is the SQL command "CREATE DATABASE". An example is:
    USE master
    GO
    CREATE DATABASE Sales
    ON
    ( NAME = Sales_dat,
    FILENAME = 'c:\program files\microsoft sql server\mssql\data\saledat.mdf',
    SIZE = 10,
    MAXSIZE = 50,
    FILEGROWTH = 5 )
    LOG ON
    ( NAME = 'Sales_log',
    FILENAME = 'c:\program files\microsoft sql server\mssql\data\salelog.ldf',
    SIZE = 5MB,
    MAXSIZE = 25MB,
    FILEGROWTH = 5MB )
    GO
    You have to have the correct permissions in order to do this and the server itself has to exist. I'm assuming that you already have the Database Connectivity Toolkit, LabSQL (http://www.jeffreytravis.com/lost/labsql.html), or are using your own ADO routines.

  • Troubles Exporting SQL databases from Azure

    1. If I connect via SQL Server Management Studio and choose Export Data Tier Application to local disk, it never ends
    2. If I export via Azure web portal, it takes few hours
    3. The only way that works is using  SQL Server Management Studio and exporting to Azure container and then downloading it and importing via SQL Server Management Studio, seems like a lot of hassle
    I need Azure SQL database to be transferred daily to my local machine, preferably automatically. How can I do it?

    Hi Alex,
    Since the issue regards Windows Azure SQL Database, I will help you move the question to the related forums, It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.
    As Olaf’s post, if you want to migrate databases between the SQL Server Database Engine and Windows Azure SQL Database, you can use the Windows Azure SQL Database Import and Export operations to copy databases between two different SQL Database servers.
     In addition, you can also use the Windows Azure SQL Database copy database feature to make a consistent copy of a database, and perform the export from the copy. For more information, see
    Copying Databases in Windows Azure SQL Database. And you also can migrate a database by using the generate scripts wizard. For more information, see:
    How to: Migrate a Database by Using the Generate Scripts Wizard (Windows Azure SQL Database)
    According to your description, you want to migrate database daily and automatically, you can configure automated exports to schedule export operations for a SQL database, and to specify the frequency of export operations, and to set the retention period
    to store export files. Also you can set data sync between SQL Server and Windows Azure SQL database, configure bi-directional for database. For more information, see:
    Windows Azure SQL Data Sync.

    Hi Affar2k,
    According to your description, we need to verify if there is no network issue and the Sqlclient version is older than .NET 4.5.  You can try to connect to the Windows Azure SQL database via SSMS and check if it can run well. When you
    connect to the SQL Azure database via ADO.NET, you need to verify that the server name and passwords are right in the connection string.

  • Connecting to an Azure SQL Database from VB6

    We have an old Application that is accessing a database located on a client site. We currently access this database using ADO and SQL Authentication. Would it be possible to migrate to Azure SQL Server and connect to it from the VB6 Application by just changing
    the connection string?

    Yes, but you have to make sure that you are not using any features that SQL Azure doesn't support. And make sure that the SQL Azure server address is open for connection from outside. You also need to be concerned about data security.

    Hi,
    We need to move the database of P1 7.0 from one host to other.Please advice if there are any documents I can refer for this operation.
    I believe if we maintain the same host name for the new system it is just database movement and PI should not even be aware of this operation!!
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
          We have a system R / 3 Enterprise Edition 47x200 running with Microsoft SQL Server 2005.
         Copy the BD in another machine (server), then applied script note 551915 (user_restore.sql) and finally proceeded to install the central instance of SAP (sapinst) with existing database option, but it does not appear that the error attached:
    Errors during EMP database check on produccion4; reported errors:
    Error by Compatibility level check: Database EMP has wrong compatibility level
    Error by Dbo objects check: Database EMP contains user objects belonging to system user dbo
    ; correct reported errors before continuing with the installation
         hope someone can give us some help on diagnosing the issues, thaks.
    Best regards,
    Christian Astete.
