What permission is needed for a login to access the restored database(backup from different server)

what permission is needed for a login to access the restored database(backup from different server)
frequently reach the situation, when vendor restores a database, but he cannot access it unless I remap or add his login to the restored database. What permssion can grant the vendor so that he can but only can access the database he restored, not all other
databases.

Hi George,
According to your description, When you move a database from one server that is running SQL Server to another server that is running SQL Server, a mismatch may occur between the security identification numbers (SIDs) of the logins in the master database
and the users in the user database. As other post, you can use the sp_change_users_login stored procedure to map SQL Server logins. Also , you can use the following statement after doing the restore database. It will
fix the mis-mapped SID inside the restored DB.
ALTER USER <username> WITH LOGIN = <username>
For more information, you can review the following article.

How to recreate the database only?

Hi All,
We are having some dictionary blocks corrupted in our application database. The solution is to recreate the database and import the whole database into this new database. Details of product we are having
OS : RHEL- ES 3
Application : 11.5.9
Database : 11.2.0.3
Now our main consideration is:
1) How to recreate the database without reinstalling the applications.
2) Is there any special consideration to follow?
3) What will be the impact of recreation of database on Applications?
Pls help me in this matter.
Thanks and Regards
Amit Raghuvanshi

You can use the above command to just install the Oracle Home in a new path.
But, i am not sure if export / import works or not. May be other experts can comment on this.
If you have a physical backup, it would be better to clone the db rather than Export / import.

Is it possible to mirror the BC database on a different server?

Hi there
This may sound like a strange question.
I am working with a client in Italy to build a contest website. The rules in Italy state that the participant data must be held on a server in Italy - Alternatively if the data is held on a server outside of Italy they permit us to "mirror" the database on a server in Italy.
We are hsoting the BC website in the European data centre which is hosted in Dublin, Ireland.
Have you any suggestions on how I could mirror the database on a differnet (non BC) server?
All suggestions . comments are most welcome.
Thanks
Cormac

Is it possible to access a database on a different server?

Hi Folks
Forgive me if this has been asked already. We are in the
process of moving one of our sites to a new server. It will reside
there alone. I have several Access databases that are shared
between two different websites. Now these sites will reside on two
different servers. Is there any way to access one Access database
that resides on one server from another server? The good part is
the second sever will be using the data for read-only outputs.
Thanks in advance for any help you can priocdie.

MS Access is not really intended for networking in this
manner, and I would imagine that you would have problems with
locking contention at the very least with two CF servers vying for
access. Also, another major problem with attempting to set up an
Access DSN where the ColdFusion server is on a different machine
from the Access database is file permission. Normally, ColdFusion
is setup on its server under an administrator account, so if you
attempt to connect to an Access database on another server over a
mapped network drive, the admin account on your CF server usually
does not have the appropriate privileges on the machine hosting the
Access database. This usually requires you to install CF under a
user account that has privileges on both machines. (There have been
tech notes on this subject in the past.)
Bottom line, not a good idea at all. I would seriously
consider migrating to anything but Access for these and many other
reasons, the least of which is that Access is usually not suitable
for anything but a development or prototype environment.

How to know the database changes between different releases

Where can I get the information of database changes, like for example new columns new tables, etc, between different releases?
My goal to try to determine the current version, or is there a better way?
Thank you

For JD Edwards World or for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne - you can go to upgradejde.com Once this screen comes up, pick Resources. You will then have an option to take JD Edwards EnterpriseOne or JD Edwards World. On the next screen, you can select the tab Compare Releases. This will allow you to enter the release that you are currently on and enter the latest GA release of software. You will then see all the differences between your current release and the release you should upgrade to. You can also format this into a printed report.

Database in tho different server

Hello,
i've a problem. i want to use two server to install Sap business One 2007A: a production server and a test server. how can i use a UNIQUE license manager installed on production server or i have to request two license? thanks a lot

Hi,
The SAP Business One workstations read the name of the license service to which they connect from the SLIC table in the SBO-Common database. All Company databases sharing an SBO-Common database use the same license file. In addition, several SBO-Common databases can direct to the same license service.
For more information please refer to:
[License Guide 2007A |https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000359212007E.pdf]
hope it helps,

Can I restore the database (clone) to different Host/User account?

Hi,
We use RMAN catalog that backup our production database using "oracle" user (OS user is "oracle") account. We wanted to clone this database to different host and to different OS user (for example is "oradev") account. Both user has same group (oradba). Can I able to restore the control fies/data files to different user account (the account that wasn't backed up).
Please update if you know of any documents/pdfs/links that explains this detail.
Thanks in advance for your assistance,
Ranga.

Yes, the user account should be transparent assuming the backuppieces have the appropriate user/group permissions.

How to pass database logon info to a Crystal Report in a subreport with different server name using VS C #

Post Author: fabu1971
CA Forum: .NET
I could pass the database logon in Reports with subreports but the reports with subreports with different server name I can not pass the logon information . Do you have any idea how I can do that to pass the database logon with different database or server name ?

Post Author: quafto
CA Forum: .NET
You can use the Subreports collection of the ReportDocument object to access all the subreports in your main report. These are returned as ReportDocument objects. Once you have your subreport as a ReportDocument you can loop through your Tables collection and set the ConnectionProperties to your appropriate Server/Database. For example here is some pseudo code: ConnectionInfo boConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();boConnectionInfo.ServerName = "serverName";boConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "databaseName";boConnectionInfo.UserID = "username";boConnectionInfo.Password = "yourpassword"; foreach(ReportDocument boSubreport in mainReport.Subreports){ foreach(Table boTable in boSubreport.Database.Tables) { TableLogOnInfo boTableLogOnInfo = boTable.LogOnInfo; boTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = boConnectionInfo; boTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(boTableLogOnInfo); boTable.Location = "newtablelocation"; }}

Where is the database of "server side" sync items?

Server 10.5.6 clients 10.5.5
Problem: Server side file tracking for Mobile Home sync is on. Files are not syncing reliably. Desktop items don't make it back to the network home and other similar issues. The clients get several errors stating that there was a problem syncing one file or another and to contact the admin if it continues.
Turn off Server side tracking. Files sync runs as one would expect, all files sync correctly with no errors.
We use two off site subnets connected via site to site VPN. Sync now takes 10 minutes at those locations.
Turn Server side tracking back on, assuming it might recreate the database automatically. Problems come back.
Needed: How to delete the current presumably corrupt database on the server so that we can run server side tracking again?
Thanks
-Erich

See
http://lists.apple.com/archives/Client-management/2008/Nov/msg00075.html
As well, you might wish to hold off on updating your clients to 10.5.6 if you can, some have reported PHD syncing reliability issues.

Can not connect the database via query string (C#). The SQL Server Management Studio is showing the full path of a location instead of database name.

I can not connect to the database via C#. The database is showing full path of the database file instead of the database name. See the pic: a database showing only name 'emart' and the other database showing the full path.
: Robby

Hi,
According to your post, I know that the database name is showing file path of the database rather than the database name in SQL Server Management Studio. You were not able to
establish a connection to the database using C#.
As Olaf said, was any error message thrown out when the connection failed? How did you create these databases?
You can use the following T-SQL to attach the database and see if the issue persists.
CREATE DATABASE
databasename
ON (FILENAME = 'filepath _Data.mdf'),
(FILENAME = 'filepath_Log.ldf')
FOR ATTACH;
Thanks.

An error occurred within the report server database. This may be due to a connection failure, timeout or low disk condition within the database

Hello
We just had this error today. We did not do ANY changes to our existing ReportServer database neither to our reports.
Our infrastructure - we have sharepoint 2010 and sql server 2008 r2 with reporting services installed.
I confirmed the following:
-->Disk space on database server OK:
-->ReportServer database not corrupted - I restored the database to my test server and ran DBCC CheckDB.
I am now looking at the Activity Monitor and have noticed that several SPID executed by the ReportServer database are blocked by a SPID executed by the ReportServerTempDB.
Would blocking be a possible cause to this problem?
Thank you all in advance

Can tablespace block size different from the database block size

I have a 10.2.0.3 database in Unix system.
I created a database used default block size of 8k. However, the client application requires 16k block size database. Can I work around to create a tablespace that has 16k block size instead of drop the database to recreate the database.
Thanks a lot!

As Steven pointed out, you certainly can.
I would generally question, though, whether you should.
- Why does the application require 16k block sizes? If this is a custom application, it almost certainly doesn't really require 16k blocks. If this is a packaged application, it probably doesn't really require 16k blocks. If 16k blocks are a requirement for support, I would wager that having the application's objects in 16k block size tablespaces in a database with 8k blocks would not be supported.
- Mixing block sizes increases the management complexity of your database, potentially substantially. You need to specify a completely separate buffer cache for the 16k blocks, a buffer cache that would not be integrated with Oracle's automatic SGA management functionality. Figuring out how to split up the buffer cache between 8k and 16k blocks tends to be rather hard (particularly if the mix changes over time), which means that DBAs are going to be spending substantially more time managing the SGA in this sort of system than in a vanilla 10.2.0.3 system. And that DBAs will have many more opportunities to set things up incorrectly.

What are the steps to move Webtools database to a different drive

The current drive is running out of space for our web tools live database so I am planning to transfer it to another drive which has sufficient space.
It would be helpful if any one can suggest the safer way and steps how to move the DB to another drive with out any problem since the site is live please?
Mohan
Edited by: Mohanakrishnan T on Mar 13, 2008 10:32 AM

Hi Martin,
Thanks for this!
To move the database to a different drive, Can I do the following?
1. Close the webshop at a appropriate time for a few minutes.
2. Stop IIS, Sync Manager etc etc that may access the web tools database.
3. Backup the WebShop database.
4. Drop the WebShop database.
5. Then Restore the WebShop database. When doing this configure the database and transaction logs (.mdf and .ldf) to be placed in the F: drive.
6. Now start the sync manager, IIS etc.
As my Colleague have moved SAP B1 databases using the above procedure. So can I assume Webtools database should be no different.
We have not tried the detach and attach procedure as of now

How to copy table from database in one forest to a database in a different forest?

Hello Community
    Using Wndows 2008 Server Enterprise there exists 2 Forests,
each containing their own SQL Server 2008 installations, a scenario exists as follows:
     a)"Domain1" resides in "Forest1" which has SQL Server 2008 containing
         a database named "Database1" which contains a table named "Table1".
     b)"Domain2" resides in "Forest2" which also has SQL Server 2008
         but containing a database named "Database2"which contains a table
         named "Table2".
    I tried to use <domain_name>.<server_name>.<owner_name>.object
but that syntax didn't work.
    How can I copy "Table2" from "Database2" into "Database1"
(keeping in mind the databases are in different forests and domains)?
    Thank you
