Renaming MBAM databses in SQL server

Hi All
We have got a notification from SQL team that the logs aren't getting backed up properly because of spaces in the database names.
They have asked if they can rename the database name by removing the spaces between them. Need your suggestions if this can cause any issue and whats the correct process to do this.
Shiva

If you will change the name of the databases, MBAM will stop functioning properly because it is the default name that MBAM takes in and all of the web configuration files have the DBs name mentioned as default one.

Put some data form the databse of SQL Server into SAP and auto general PR?

Dear all,
Can you tell me how I can put some data from the databse of SQL Server into SAP and auto general PR?
Best regards,
Merryzhang

Hi Zhang,
If i have understood your question properly, I guess you wanted to create Purchase Requistion automatically right?
Then you have lots of option simpilest one would be create a couple of Z table with all the fields that you require for header and Item.
create a Program and use BAPI function module to create the PR by reading the values from those Z tables. after creation delete the contents from the table. Schedule this program in Background periodically like everyday or weekly once however you would like it to be. So once the table has contents in it and when the program runs it will create the PR's (Purchase Requisition).
You can also use a workflow with the Z table. Once the Z table is filled you can trigger a workflow based on the Table change. I'm not sure like how to do it but I nkow that this process can also be used.
Hope this might have thrown some light upon.
Thanks,
Prashanth

On sharepoint2013 upgrade Sql2008 Express edition databse to SQL server 2012 enterprise

Hi,
I have a sharePoint 2013 installed as standalone with sql server express edition 2008.Now my database size as increased more that 10GB.I have installed SQL server 2012 enterprise edition on other server.I want to know how do I make this standalone installation
as farm installation so that the sharePoint installation can take advantage of sql server 2012 enterprise edition ?
Or
Do I need to take backup and reinstall to share point as farm solution?

You need to install & Configure new SharePoint farm, then Move the Content DB to new farm/new SQL server.
Install the SharePoint 2013, Configure it
Create & Configure any Services Application
Create the Web Application
Backup the Content DB from Express & restore it to SQL Server 2012.
Attach it to the Web Application.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog

Can't Uninstall SQL Server 2005 Express Tools

I am attempting to install SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Trial and receive the follow error during installation.
"The SQL Server 2005 Express Tools are installed. To continue, remove the SQL Server 2005 Express Tools."
I have used Add or Remove programs to remove all components of SQL Server 2005 Express. I have even reinstalled the Workstation Tools of SQL Server 2005 just so I could indiviually remove those tools, and then completly removed the SQL 2005 installation.
I have used regedit to search for any instance of SQL Server 2005, there is none.
There is still an entry for SQL Server Mangement Express in my all programs listing. However trying to launch that program fails with errors, so it is partial still installed.
Can anyone tell me how to wipe out these last bits of SQL Server 2005 Express Tools? I have tried everything I have found searching this forum to no avail.
Bill

Renaming or deleting the registry key was the only solution for me. It is not eough to rename a sub-key, I found you must rename or remove the key at the level of "\90"
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\90
I have not tried every permutation but these are the previous steps in order that were NOT helpful.
Sometimes it is good to know what has been tried and does not work, so you do not spend time in dead ends.
These do NOT work
1. resolution at this link did not work for me although it worked for that person
"rename registry key "
http://jasonfollas.com/blog/archive/2008/06/19/sql-server-2008-rc0-install-sql2005ssmsexpressfacet.aspx
rename key from: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\ShellSEM
to: ShellSEM.old
(If I had renamed \90 it might have succeeded)
2. solution at this link did not work for me although it worked for that person
"changing the Regional Settings of my computer"
http://www.kodyaz.com/blogs/software_development_blog/archive/2008/02/22/840.aspx
3. reset.cmd
download and execute reset.cmd to reset many registry settings
Nope, no luck
4. download entire 2008 express package as an ISO file in the small chance any previous files were corrupted.
The ISO image was 744 meg, which can only be burned onto a double-layer disk.
Then I remembered I don't have a double-layer burner.
Duh.
5. removing 3rd party tools
- Remove SQL Server 2005 Express Tools
- Remove Red-Gate SQL Prompt if installed.
http://blog.crowe.co.nz/archive/2008/08/14/quotThe-SQL-Server-2005-Express-Tools-are-installed.-To-continue.aspx
mainly because neither were actually listed in add/remove programs, nor was Red Gate in the registry
(or redgate, red-gate, red_gate)
6. "Solving setup errors by using the SubInACL tool to repair file and registry permissions"
http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2006/09/04/739820.aspx
7. rename the instance of SQL Server 2008 when installing
Nope.
8. With Add/remove programs, remove
- sql server 2005
- anything else that had in the title "sql server 2005"
- sql server system clr types (which sounded sort of like a 3-rd party tool and I had not used it in a year)
- remove folder
c:\program files\microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server90
Nope, no luck
10. With a Microsoft tool "Windows Install Clean Up" inspect any add/remove programs that were removed and absolutely remove their install logs
Nope. So it was not due to any residual information from SQL Server 2005
11. With Add/remove programs, remove
- anything that has the title sql server 2008
and try to re-install, which did not work.
Finally found this thread and deleted the key and the installation succeeded.
It did not take 2 days, but almost.
This is a test, right? We have to navigate all the half-good information and actually succeed installing SQL Server 2008 then we earn the privilege to use it? Yay!

Renaming the Physical Filename for Datafiles in SQL Server 2008

Can anyone tell me how to change the physical filename of the datafiles? There doesn't seem to be any documentation on this, yet its quite easy to change the logical filename.

There are several ways to make this change, however to rename the physical database files at operating system level you will have to take the database offline
1. Use SSMS to take the database Offline (right-click on Database, select Tasks, Take Offline), change the name of the files at the OS level and then Bring it Online.
2. You could Detach the database, rename the files and then Attach the database pointing to the renamed files to do so.
3. You could Backup the database and then restore, changing the file location during the restore process.
4. using T SQL
ALTER DATABASE databaseName SET OFFLINE
GO
ALTER DATABASE databaseNAme MODIFY FILE (NAME =db, FILENAME = 'C:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\MSSQL\Data\db.mdf')
GO
--if changing log file name
ALTER DATABASE databaseNAme MODIFY FILE (NAME = db_log, FILENAME =
'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\MSSQL\Data\db.ldf')
GO
ALTER DATABASE databaseName SET ONLINE
GO

What security roles are you talking about?
built-in server- or database-roles? - those cannot be renamed.
User-defined roles can be renamed at any point in time without any problems unless you write code that specifically accesses them by name yourself.

How to change SQL Server security groups name after server rename?

A Windows 2003 server has been renamed from LAMDAMIRROR1A to LAMDAMIRROR2A and the following
sql has been run in SQL Server 2008 R2 on the server :
exec sp_dropserver 'LAMDAMIRROR1A'
exec sp_addserver 'LAMDAMIRROR2A','local'
However, although everything appears ok, the 5 Windows 2003 Groups (automatically created by
the SQL 2008 R2 Install) still contain 'LAMDAMIRROR1A' in their name. Does this matter ? Can the Windows Groups be just renamed (right click , rename) or will this cause problems ?
The Windows Groups are :
SQLServer2005SQLBrowserUser$LAMDAMIRROR1A
SQLServerDTSUser$LAMDAMIRROR1A
SQLServerMSSQLServerADHelperUser$LAMDAMIRROR1A
SQLServerMSSQLUser$LAMDAMIRROR1A
SQLServerSQLAgentUser$LAMDAMIRROR1A
There are also Registry entries containing the old 'LAMDAMIRROR1A' name. Does this matter ?
Should this be changed ?
eg.
My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Machines\OriginalMachineName.
My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Services\Report Server\GroupPrefix.
My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\printers\Microsoft XPS
DocumentWriter\DsSpooler\serverName.
etc

Hi,
If you have executed the sp_dropserver and sp_addserver in SQL Server 2008 R2, we need to verify if you renamed the SQL Server instance successfully. You can select information from @@SERVERNAME or sys.servers to verify if the renaming operation is completely
successful in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). If yes, whether you change the registry entries containing the old 'LAMDAMIRROR1A' name or not, there’s no impact on SQL Server Services. For more details, please review this article:
How to: Rename a Computer that Hosts a Stand-Alone Instance of SQL Server.
In addition, if you must rename the windows groups, you can just right-click the group in Computer Management/System Tools/Local Users and Groups/Groups and rename it, or you can create new groups with new names, for more details, please review this article:
Manage Local Groups. If there are some issues regards the Windows, you can post the question in the Windows Server forums at
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/home?category=windowsserver . It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.

Activate Reporting Services on My Sharepoint SQL SERVER Databse ?

Hi,
I have small sharepoint farm (1 FW and 1 SQL).
I can't find if it's recommended or not to activate and use Reporting Services on the SHAREPOINT SQL SERVER Instance ?
I wouldn't want to decrease my global farm performance.
Thank you for helping.
Regards

SSRS integrated must run on a server that has SharePoint installed and joined to the farm. That will have a significant impact on the SQL Database Engine server from a memory contention and CPU utilization perspective.

How to import tables to target databse from a remote sql server

Hi,
I have various remote database (SQL Server, Oracle).
I need to replicate those database in staging database and then from that database do a transformation to the datawarehouse database.
I created a source database and staging database in oracle 9i.
Using OWB i created a source module and imported all the metadata information from the remote(SQL) database.
Now i need to import all these stuff to the target database.(just a replica of the remote database in my local machine).
pls let me know how can i import the stuff into the target database without manually creating it.
What i am looking for is some sort of scripts where in i can just run them in the target database.
OR
is there any other way were i can import the tables and the data into the target module directly?
when i tried to do this i got an error saying its a invalid oracle source?
Does this mean that i cannot import the stuff from SQL Server to OWB target module and then deploy to the database??
pls help me in understanding this?
TIA
shankar

In a nutshell, what you should do is:
1. Import the source database structure into an SQL Server module or an ODBC source module (depending on whether you are using a transparent gateway or ODBC as a connecting mechanism between SQL Server and Oracle),
2. Define the target database schema structure in an OWB's target module (in your case, since the source and target module are identica, you can just cut ad paste the source objects into the target module).
3. Define the mappings (processes that extract data from the source and put them into the target) - in your case these will be straightforward, just 1:1 field mappings, since the source and target databases will have the same structure.
4. Deploy everything to the target database schema - this will create the target schema objects (tables, views etc.) and install the scripts for data transfer that you designed when you defined the mappings.
5. Finally, you can run the mappings that will transfer the data from SQL Server to Oracle.

[Forum FAQ] How do I create calculated measure using AMO in SQL Server Analysis Services?

Introduction
In SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS), you can create a calculated measure in SQL Server Data Tool (SSDT)/Boniness Integrated Development Studio (BIDS). Sometimes you may need to create calculated measure by using AMO in a C# or VB project.
In this article, I will demonstrate so how to create calculated measure using AMO in SSAS?
Prerequisites
Before create calculated measure using AMO, you need to ensure that the following components were installed in your server.
The multidimensional database AdventureWorks Multidimensional Model 2012
A SQL Server with SSIS and SSAS installed
The AMO libraries installed:
X86 Package (SQL_AS_AMO.msi)
X64 Package (SQL_AS_AMO.msi)
Solution
Here is the detail steps to create calculated measure using AMO in SSAS.
Open SSDT and create a new SSIS project.
Drag Script Task to the design surface.
Click SSIS-> Variables to open the Variables window and add two variables that used to connect to the server and database.
Create a connection to connect to SSAS server.
Rename the connection name to ssas.
Double click the Script Task to open Script Task Editor.
Add Connection and Database variables to ReadWriteVariables textbox and then click Edit Script button.
Add AMO reference in the Solution Explore window.
Copy the script below and paste it into the script.
Dim objServer As Server
Dim objDatabase As Database
Dim strDataBaseID As String
Dim objCube As Cube
Dim objMdxScript As MdxScript
Dim objCommand As Command
Dim strCommand As String
objServer = New Server
objServer.Connect("localhost")
objDatabase = objServer.Databases("AdventureWorksDW2012Multidimensional-EE2")
strDataBaseID = objDatabase.ID
If objDatabase.Cubes.Count > 0 Then
objCube = objDatabase.Cubes("Adventure Works")
If objCube.MdxScripts.Count > 0 Then
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts("MdxScript")
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts(0)
Else
objCube.MdxScripts.Add("MdxScript", "MdxScript")
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts("MdxScript")
End If
objCommand = New Command
strCommand = "CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[Measures].[Multipy Measures By 3]"
strCommand = strCommand & " AS [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] * 3, "
strCommand = strCommand & " VISIBLE = 1 ; "
objCommand.Text = strCommand
objMdxScript.Commands.Add(objCommand)
objMdxScript.Update()
objCube.Update()
End If
objServer.Disconnect()
Then you can run this SSIS package to create the calculated measure.
Applies to
Microsoft SQL Server 2005
Microsoft SQL Server 2008
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2
Microsoft SQL Server 2012

Thanks,
Is this a supported scenario, or does it use unsupported features?
For example, can we call exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='b64ce7ec-d598-45cd-bbc2-ea202e0c129d'
in a supported way?
Thanks! Josh
