Reporting Services 2012 in SharePoint 2010 - SQL database edition?

We currently have a SharePoint 2010 farm, running on a SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard database. On one of the SharePoint 2010 servers, we have an instance of Reporting Services 2008 Enterprise running in SharePoint integrated mode. (We require Enterprise
for data-driven subscriptions)
We'd like to upgrade to Reporting Services 2012 for Data Alerts and a few other new features. However, I noticed something on
this blog stating that the SharePoint 2010 database server edition needs to match the Reporting Services edition. My concern is that I've not seen any official mention of this in Microsoft's documentation, and would like to avoid upgrading to Enterprise
for the SharePoint 2010 database if I can avoid it.
So, what I'd like to run is:
SharePoint 2010
SharePoint database: SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard
Reporting Services 2012 Enterprise
Reporting Services database: same as SharePoint database, so SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard
Is this possible? Or do I need to upgrade the SharePoint database to SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise?
Alternatively, could I install a separate database engine just for Reporting Services to host its databases (for example, SQL Server 2012 Enterprise), so I don't have to mess around with upgrading the SP database?

While you don't need to upgrade your SQL 2008 R2 to 2012, you will need to install an instance of SQL 2012 & SSRS 2012. They can be side-by-side and independent of each other. The following blog post provides steps to do so,

Adding a custom rendering extension to SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 for SharePoint 2010 integrated mode

We are attempting to add OfficeWriter report rendering extensions for SSRS 2012 in SharePoint (2010) integrated mode through powershell. The documentation for “New-SPRSExtension” is rather
sparse and we have not found any clear examples on the internet. With SSRS 2012 in native mode, we make the following two changes to the config files:
We add the following report rendering extension declaration to
RSReportServer.config:
<Configuration>
    <Extensions>
<Render>
<Extension Name="XLTemplate" Type="SoftArtisans.OfficeWriter.ReportingServices.ExcelTemplateRenderer,
SoftArtisans.OfficeWriter.RS2008"/>
<Extension Name="WordTemplate" Type="SoftArtisans.OfficeWriter.ReportingServices.WordTemplateRenderer,
SoftArtisans.OfficeWriter.RS2008"/>
</Render>
    </Extensions>
</Configuration>
We add the following security trust codegroup to
RSSvrPolicy.config:
<configuration>
    <mscorlib>
<security>
<policy>
<PolicyLevel version="1">
  <CodeGroup version="1" PermissionSetName="Nothing">
  <CodeGroup
                          version="*"
                          PermissionSetName="FullTrust"
                          Name="SoftArtisans_OfficeWriter_Strong_Name"
                          Description="This
code group grants SoftArtisans OfficeWriter code full trust.">
                      <IMembershipCondition
                          class="StrongNameMembershipCondition"
      version="*"

</CodeGroup>
</CodeGroup>
</PolicyLevel>
    </policy>
</security>
</mscorlib>

What would be the equivalent syntax for “New-SPRSExtension” to do the above for SSRS 2012 in SharePoint (2010) integrated mode?
Alison Bird SoftArtisans Technical Services www.softartisans.com

Hi Alison,
Unlike the deployment of other custom extensions such as custom delivery extension and data processing extension, it is not necessary to add a code group for the custom assembly that grants FullTrust permission for the extension during the deployment of
custom rendering extension. If you have copy the custom assembly to the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS11.<InstanceName>\Reporting Services\ReportServer\Bin folder, and modify the RSreportserver.config file to add the extention entry properly,
please open the SSRS Service Application created on the SharePoint and verify that your extension is included in the list of available export types for a report.

Reporting Services 2012 for SharePoint and SQL Server Agent "Subscriptions and Alerts"

After installing Reporting Services for SharePoint (Denali) in my test farm, I'm trying to configure the "SQL Server Agent" access for Reporting Services. From Central Admin I'm going to the Reporting Service applicaiton configuration screen and selecting
"Provision Subscriptions and Alerts". I've tried both options on this screen. I've manually executed the "download sql script" in SQL Server, as well as entering a user with SQL sys admin rights on the SQL server into the login fields on the screen.
The role and permissions have been created for the application pool service account, but Reporting Services is still trying to connect with the annonymous login because I'm getting the following alert each time I open the "Provision Subscriptions and Alerts"
screen:
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'
The "status" on the screen still shows "SQL Server Agent State cannot be determined". Has anyone else seen this?
Thanks!!

Thanks for your reply!
1) Looks like the new Reporting Services does not run as a Windows Service so it's not listed in the "Configure Service Accounts" pulldown. As a result, I don't see how to set the service account. It's only assigned to an application pool.
I installed it into an existing application pool and that application pool "is" in the list and has a domain service account already assigned.
2) Which users need to be in here in order to configure the "Provision Subscriptions and Alerts" screen? I already have the farm admin account which is the account I use when running Central Admin.
3) As mentioned in #1, I've installed Reporting Services into an existing application pool with other service apps.
4) This link is for Reporting Services 2008 R2 which is very different install process. But I did follow the SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 RC0 installation instructions and the Reporting Services is functioning correctly with no errors.
I'm just not able to configure the sceduling the alerting with interfaces with the SQL Server Agent.
Thanks!

Reporting Services 2012 in SharePoint 2010 - do I need to install SSRS on each server?

Have spent some time today setting up SSRS2012 with SP1 Business Intelligence Edition on our test SharePoint 2010 farm. The SharePoint farm is four servers (plus a database) - one of the application servers will host the SQL Server 2012 instance and
SSRS 2012.
I've installed SSRS 2012 on one of the servers in SharePoint mode, and seems to be configured correctly in Central Admin - can view the system settings, it reports that the SQL Server Agent is running, etc. I've also installed the SSRS 2012 SharePoint
Add-In on all servers. However, I'm getting the following error whenever I try to do anything with reports (such as deploying or running):
Name=Request (POST:http://sharepoint/reports/ReportService2010.asmx) System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The file you are attempting to save or retrieve has been blocked from this Web site by
the server administrators.
Sure enough, if I try to connect to that ReportService2010.asmx URL in a browser, I get the same error. Note that http://sharepoint is NOT the server I installed SSRS on - this is a web front-end.
Can I assume that I need to install SSRS2012 (SharePoint integrated) on all SharePoint servers in the farm? Or is this another issue?

You only need to install the Add-on for the additional servers. Have you configured the SSRS Service Application?

Installed SQL Reporting Services 2012 on SharePoint 2013 Server. SQL Reporting Service not available In the list of runnning services or new service applications

Hi I'm trying to setup SQL reporting services in a SharePoint 2013 farm consisting of:
4 WFE's
4 App Servers (NLB Central Admin x 4 servers)
4 App Severs for SSRS (Light limited SharePoint services running)
I've installed SSRS 2012 SP1 by following the guide (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg492276.aspx) on one of the SSRS SharePoint 2013 servers and ensuring Reporting Services - SharePoint and Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint Products is selected.
All completed without errors and I have even upgraded to SP2 for troubleshooting but no joy.
I've then gone into SharePoint Central Admin and I cannot see SQL Reporting Service available In the list of runnning services on the server I have just installed SSRS on and going to manage service applications I cannot see in the new dropdown menu SQL
Reporting Services.
I have ran the following commands in the SHarePoint management shell:
Install-SPRSService and Install-SPRSSeviceProxy
and
get-spserviceinstance -all |where {$_.TypeName -like "SQL Server Reporting*"} | Start-SPServiceInstance
The reply was that the service was already online on the server.
So in powershell all seems ok but it does not appear in central administration.
I have also moved Central Administration to the SSRS SharePoint server too.
Any other suggestions? Here is the same problem but in SP2010 (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/6a21cc05-1f9b-49ad-a9bb-44aa5b3ce312/action?threadDisplayName=after-installing-sql-reporting-services-service-for-sharepoint-2012-service-is-not-in-the-list-of)
In my lab environment of a 4 server SP2013 farm it worked immediately when i installed it on the app server (CA host) so I dont think it is my install strategy.
I guess my next attempt is to install SSRS on an app server with central administration hosted.
Thanks

I had the same issue on 2 different environments.
I had 2 application servers. One had Central Administration. I installed SSRS on the other one and it never appeared in the Service Applications in SharePoint.
When I also provisioned Central Administration on the other application server and went to the service applications using Central Admin on that server, the SSRS service application was there.
Since then I always install SSRS on the server which hosts Central Admin. No issues then.

Upgrade Sharepoint 2010 SQL Reporting Services from 2008 R2 to 2014

I'm about to do the upgrade of SharePoint 2010 Reporting Services from 2008 R2 to 2014. The instructions say it can be done "in-place" with no downtime. I've seen this article:
http://whitepages.unlimitedviz.com/2012/03/upgrading-sql-server-reporting-services-to-2012-in-sharepoint-integrated-mode/
It covers 2012 so I assume the same holds true for 2014.
I'd like to get the low down from anyone who has actually performed the upgrade of SSRS from 2008 R2 to 2014. Anyone done this upgrade? Any issues?
David Jenkins

So far I would have to say that the upgrade can be done "in-place" but there is a "DOWNTIME".
This article has helped a lot:
http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/tlingenfelder/archive/2012/07/10/upgrading-sql-server-reporting-services-2008-r2-to-sql-server-reporting-services-2012-in-sharepoint.aspx
In the article it tells you about a bug in the SQL Upgrade process where
the Domain account you use will not work. When you type in the password it fails. On top of that it will lock the Domain account because of a bad password! There is probably something wrong with the authentication process and it garbles the password.
Anyway, you end up having to change the account to the "Network Service" account before you can do the upgrade. This means the services get restarted which means???
DOWN TIME! He goes over other errors. I haven't reviewed these issues yet.
The other thing I learned is that everything needs to be SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 in order to upgrade. You don't find this out until almost the last step in the installation process.
Now I have to wait until next week to actually do the upgrade because I have to schedule an SP2 install. :(

Reporting Services 2012 - "Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded"

Running SharePoint 2010 SP1 (Feb-Mar 2012 CU)
Is there any official word from Microsoft regarding the issue with SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 for SharePoint where 2 of the reporting service application databases show "Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded".
ReportingServiceDB - Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded
ReportingServiceDB_Alerting - Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded
I'm building the new Reporting Services into a new DEV environment and I'd like to know what the official word is from Microsoft. Is Reporting Services 2012 ready for production?
Thanks!

Hi mikea730,
Thanks for your psot.
Based on my research, I found a similar thread about this issue at Microsoft Contect site. For more information, please see:
http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/721067/database-is-up-to-date-but-some-sites-are-not-completely-upgraded
It might be a known issue of SQL Server 2012. I would suggest opening a case with Microsoft Customer Support Services (CSS) (http://support.microsoft.com), so that a dedicated Support Professional can assist you
in a more efficient manner.

IIS Recycle times for Service Application App pool / Reporting Services 2012 memory

Hello,
On our SharePoint application servers we run the Reporting Services 2012 in SharePoint integrated mode. For the Reporting Services SharePoint sets up a own App Pool.
Now we found, that this App Pool for Reporting Services takes all the memory of the server. Usually the SharePoint Web Application App Pool are recycled at night. The Service Application App Pools are not ? I'm confused.
Of course, if an App Pool does not recylce it takes all memory it gets.
>> But why is the recycling option in IIS not set for SharePoint Service Application pools? Does any know if we can just set recycle times, like for the Web Application app pools?
Thanks in advance community.
Benjamin

You may want to consider limiting the amount of memory to be allocated to SSRS by editing C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\15\WebServices\Reporting\rsreportserver.config and changing the value of <MemoryThreshold>.
This value is in percent. SSRS evaluates the amount of memory on service startup and will allocate up to this percentage of memory to SSRS.
You also may want to consider increasing the amount of memory available on that SharePoint server.

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.

Reporting Services 2012 Item-level permissions issue

Hello,
We have a SQL Reporting services 2012 Scale-Out solution that uses a remote report SQL 2008 R2 database. The report server is used for reports consolidation - different teams within the company have different folders to which they have access and can upload
reports, create/change data sources, etc within their folders. Let's say I create a team folder called Finance beneath the root folder. Only admins have Content manager role applied to the root folder and system admin as a system role to the Report server.
I grant Content manager role for the Finance folder to DOMAIN\Finance team, the users are able to create a data source, however they cannot access it or view its properties afterwards. Why is this happening? When I grant DOMAIN\Finance team the Browser role
to the root folder, they are able to amend the data source in the Finance folder and view its properties, but they are also able to view the reports and folders in the root folder of the Report server and I do not want that. Is this a standard behaviour of
SSRS? How can I fix it?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Which folder did data sources stored ? the Data sources folder under the root folder on Report Manager or the Custom Finance folder which you had grant Content Manager role? How about grant only Browser role on the Finance folder to the specify team? Did
you modify the task of the Content Manager and Browser role?
By default, the Content Manager includes "Manage data sources" and "View data sources" task which means uses with this role can view and manage data sources, while Browser role did not include these tasks. You can check the task of the Content Manager
role by connect to Reporting Services with SQL Server Management Studio and check role under Security.

SharePoint 2010 Content database growing too fast

Hi,
I have a SharePoint 2010 Content database wss_content_DB which is 197 GB BUT when I calculate my site collection I can see they have used only about 70 GB. I know there is Auditdata table which is about 27 GB. Couple of days ago my content DB was about 105
GB and it Audit data log was set to unlimited once I noticed that I set to 90 days since then it jumped to 197 GB.
I have no idea what is going on.
Now I need to know
- why it is showing 197 GB in SQL server
- How can I trim audit log
- Why suddenly it's increased to 197 GB from 105 GB
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Abdul

There is a way to deal with this table. There is an stsadm command (stsadm -o trimauditlog) as part of the infastructure update that will allow you to manage this data.
#Powershell Script to trim old AuditData table records.
$currentDate = Get-Date
#Number of days we want to keep data in the table
$NumberOfDays = -90
$DateToDelete = $currentDate.AddDays($NumberOfDays)
$DateString = ‘{0:yyyyMMdd}’ -f $DateToDelete
$STSADMCMD = “stsadm -o trimauditlog -date $DateString -databasename WSS_ContentDB”
invoke-expression “$STSADMCMD”
WHY IT SUDDENLY INCREASED:
Do this query on your SQL Instance: DBCC SQLPERF(logspace)
This will show you how the size of LOGfiles (LDF) and how much is unused, if you have alot of unused space it indicates you dont have a recent DB backup - normally backup would write log data to MDF file .
Normally you will not shrink DBs, only if you have deleted alot of data and you are not going to use space again so only do a shrink if you REALLY needs to.

Reporting Services 2012 mobile support

Hi,
Does anyone have info on mobile support for Reporting Services 2012. We've found
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlrsteamblog/archive/2011/10/13/power-view-pass-and-mobile.aspx
which is a year old. It states the direction/strategy for "web based BI solutions" including SSRS for mobile devices (Android, iOS etc). Timeframe is set to 2nd half 2012. SQL Server 2012 SP1 is in CTP4 now and we can't find any info about better support
for mobile browsers and devices.
Has anyone found anything else or can share some experience? Our alternative is Telerik reporting which would be a new component for us which would add overhead to our project since the users and report writers know SSRS today.
Thanks!

Hi Mansos,
So far, my information abou the Mobile BI is gained from the Microsoft BI Team's MSDN

Reduce Size or delete unwanted entries from tables AllDocStreams,AllDocVersions,EventCache,EventLog of Sharepoint 2010 content database

Size or delete unwanted entries from tables AllDocStreams,AllDocVersions,EventCache,EventLog of Sharepoint 2010 content database:
We using powershell scripts to migrate data between two sharepoint 2010 sites .
While doing migration we delete all document libraries & list form destination site and then run powershell to migrate data from source to destination. We following this process
twice in a week.
But in doing so we found the above mention tables (AllDocStreams,AllDocVersions,EventCache,EventLog ) of destination Sharepoint Content database are growing at an alarming rate.
Wish to know how could get rid of unwanted data stored in these tables.

thanks for any reply.

It is not a bug, you might be using IE in Windows server 2012 and and browser might be restricting your site actions to respond properly.
Check this in a different browser or access site in a differ OS.

Question regarding the powershell creation of service applications in SharePoint 2010/2013

Hi
I create all my service applications in SharePoint 2010/2013 using Powershell.
Is there a "best practice" when to start the service Instance for a service application? Is it better to start the service instance prior to creating a service application or after the service application has been create?
I'm curious.
best regards
Bjorn

Not that i'm aware of. If it works then go for it.
I would tend to build the service application and only then activate the instances on servers, however that is going to depend heavily on the application in question. The real heavyweights like Search are a special case in any event.
