Server Monitoring with clustered instances

Anyone using the server monitor or multiserver monitor with
clustered instances of coldfusion? In CF 8.0.1 on Solaris, enabling
monitoring produces a vast number of repeated errors of the form
included below. This occurs on the both clustered instances as the
instances are setup to replicate session data using J2EE session
variables. The monitoring appears to work but the frequency of the
errors produced in the ouput log of *BOTH* of the cluster instances
is extensive. These errors do not occur when monitoring the
"cfusion" admin instance. Is this a product issue or a
configuration issue?
MM/DD HH:MM:SS error Setup of session replication failed.

Standalone SQL Server monitoring with Solution Manager

Hi,
We have a Solman 3.1 instance monitoring all of our SAP and non-SAP Infrastructure. We have several SQL Server systems we would like to monitor.
Currently we have installed saposcol and sapccms agents on the servers and are getting the OS alerts and additionally have also configured Process and Log file monitoring. We would now like to get SQL Server specific alerts like Log full alerts and other db specific alert situations. Since this is a standalone db, how can we configure this db to report these type of alerts?
thanks,
binoy.

Binoy,
If I remember correctly I had this setup @ Sharp for oracle. You can use the same step to monitor the SQL DB liek transaction logs, backup etc's. If you can run the report RSDBMON0 this will build the <DB monitoring Tree> on the solman. So you can setup the autoreaction for the respective monitoring segment which you wanted.
Let me know if any questions.

JDBC - MS SQL Server 2005 with multible instances

I want to get data from a Microsoft SQL Server via JDBC. We have such a scenario and till now it works fine. Now we have a second instance at the sql server and we want to connect to this instance. I've found the following MSD article:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms378428.aspx
<b>SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 allow for the installation of multiple database instances per server. Each instance is identified by a specific name. To connect to a named instance of SQL Server, you can either specify the port number of the named instance (preferred), or you can specify the instance name as a JDBC URL property or a datasource property. If no instance name or port number property is specified, a connection to the default instance is created. See the following examples:
To use a port number, do the following:
jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;integratedSecurity=true;<more properties as required>;
To use a JDBC URL property, do the following:
jdbc:sqlserver://localhost;instanceName=instance1;integratedSecurity=true;<more properties as required>;</b>
Because the named instance has no explicit port I've tried to use the second one but this doesn't work. I've tried all possible combinations of these parameters but either I get an error or my adapter connects to the first instance
Any idea how I can connect to the second named instance?

We have also a SQL server 2000 instance at the same server. Yesterday I have spoken with the sql server admin and he told me that he has disconnect the sql server 2000 databases whatever this means. :-D
Now all works fine. Thank you for your help
BTW I use the following connection string:
jdbc:sqlserver://my_db_server;instanceName=my_instance_name;DatabaseName=my_db_name

Let's assume you have two DBMS instances running on the machine hansa. One
of them may be listening for tcp connections on port 1433, but the other must not.
The other most be listening on some other port number you have chosen.
Therefore, to choose which DBMS instance you want to connect to, use the
working URL you have, and switch the port number as desired.

Info on tape channel when connected with remote instance

Hello,
I'm trying to debug a problem with Backup Exec to do recovery of an instance against a server different from the original one, using command line
and so I'm doing some tests isolating some components to keep the problem general...
Suppose I have a server server_one with Oracle instance TEST and a running listener
Suppose I have another server server_two with tnsnames.ora configured to reach TEST instance.
On server_two I have a dummy instance in nomount, called again TEST and where I set ORACLE_SID=TEST
I run:
$ rman
RMAN> connect target sys@TEST <--- remote
target database Password:
connected to target database: TEST (DBID=1165152943)
RMAN> connect auxiliary / <--- local
connected to auxiliary database: TEST (not mounted)
RMAN> run {
2> ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch0 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE';
3> RELEASE CHANNEL ch0;
4> }
ORA-19554: error allocating device, device type: SBT_TAPE, device name:
ORA-27211: Failed to load Media Management Library
Additional information: 2
The question is about my "allocate" channel above:
Who drives there, the target and so it tries to go remote with the tape in some way or local so it should work, if the local instance/user/oracle installation is configured for tape access?
Thanks,
Gianluca

Ok, stupid me I had to use AUXILIARY in channel specification
ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL ch0 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE';
With that, now I correctly get:
allocated channel: ch0
channel ch0: SID=135 device type=SBT_TAPE
channel ch0: Symantec/BackupExec/1.1.0
Thanks anyway...

Anybody know what tcp or udp port # is used by Server Monitor?

Hi everyone. I've been lookin' all over ****'s half-acre to find out what port # is required for Server Monitor with no luck. Sure, I can access the local IP address on the LAN, but for LOM to be truly useful...I need to access from WAN. Since my public IP takes me direct to the server itself (and other ports on that ip do other things), I really need to know what port # is used to forward Server Monitor traffic. Anyone?
Thanks!

I do have this link to well known TCP and UDP ports used by Apple software products.
I am fairly certain the answer lies within.

Dbconsole with multiple instances on the same server?

Hi!
I have a LINUX server running 2 separate instances - csp1 and csp2. I have a repository in csp1 and the dbconsole running for csp1. Now I need to find out if / how I can get the dbconsole running for the csp2 instance. This is Oracle standard edition 10.2.0.4. Both instances share the same Oracle Home and Listener. A second Oracle Home has the companion CD (http server) installed in it and has no instances associated with it.
Does anyone have information on how to do this? Here are some of my questions:
1) Do I need separate repositories for each instance or can the repository in csp1 be used for both instances?
2) Can the ports be shared or do I need to assign new port #'s for the 2nd instance? How / where do I do this?
Any hints, tips, suggestions, etc. are greatly appreciated!
Dave Venus

1) Do I need separate repositories for each instance or can the repository in csp1 be used for both instances?
Yes, in the free version of EM in 10g ie DB console,that's the restriction. You can't use it for more than one database. It has to be done explicitly for that another database whom you want to manage via it. So as per the answer, yes you do need a seperate repository for your second db. The other db will be in the same Oracle home and surely its em repository can work with the existing listener.But it does require its own set of config files which will be in a sperate folder under Oracle Home with its sid.
2) 2) Can the ports be shared or do I need to assign new port #'s for the 2nd instance? How / where do I do this?
As I mentioned in my last reply, you wouldn't be able to share the port that is already in use. You do need to have a seperate port configured. Normally when you would install the repository oracle would pick up itself a port number. The valid port range , if I remember correctly is from 5500 onwards ( I don't remember the last limit). Even afterwars, you can change the port using "emca" command.
Edit:
I forgot to mention that some time back, here on the forums, I had a discussion with a guy who mentioned that there is a workaround possible to add a target in the current Targets.xml for the second database. I did try it out but still that didn't give me two instances. The most recent one which I added only was accessible.
Update:
I did find that thread,here it is. See if this helps you,

Install multiple version of SQL Server on a same machine, both with default instance?

We have an almost idle server (windows server 2008 R2) with SQL Server 2008 Enterprise with default instance. We would like to port all the data, install SQL Server 2012 developer edition and use it as testing server. Is that possible we still choose default
instance name on 2012 developer version? Do we have to shutdown or uninstall the 08 Enterprise? If we keep both versions running, does SQL server 2012 have to choose a named instance? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

There can only be a single default instance and multiple named instances.

Why does Server Monitor not work with non-Xserves?

Does anyone know why Server Monitor does not work with non-Xserve computers? We acquired a Power Mac for a server, based on there being no apparent difference except for the obvious. Turns out there are some differences after all.
Do Power Macs lack some hardware components or is this just a software thing?

God question, unfortunitly I dont have the answer but I would also like to know why the software only works for X-Serve....Is there any 3rd Party Software that is similar to "Server Monitor"?
Thanks

Sql server with multiple instance

hi All,
i want to install sql server with two instance and i want to assign two separate is ips for both default instance and named instance and both should work like
two different server
note: If i logged with one ip(default instance) it should show its own databases not both or named instance databases
thanks
chintala

Hi chintala,
According to your description, if you want to assign the two different IP to stand for default instance
and named instance, I recommend you set up aliases on a SQL Server with multiple instances. For example, a physical server is named WinServer and 2 instances of SQL Server named WinServer and WinServer\instance1.
We need to add 1 IP addresse to the WinServer, there is one IP address already assigned to WinServer, 192.168.1.1, by adding one new IP's, 192.168.1.2 .
We need to move into DNS to configure our host names and aliases. The physical machine must be steup as a static IP in DNS. SQLAlias1, which point to the default instance on WinServer, will be setup as a DNS with an address of 192.168.1.1.
SQLAlias2, which will point to WinServer\Instance1, will be setup as a new Host (A) record in DNS with an address of 192.168.1.2.
When everything has been completed on the DNS side, you need to open up SQL Server Configuration Manager on WinServer and configure the protocols for each instance one at a time, restart the 3 SQL services.
For more information about how to set up aliases on a SQL Server with multiple instances, you can review the similar article.

Web service interfaces for monitoring Hosts and instances with SAPHostControl, saphostexec and sapstartsrv

Hi All,
I need to develop a monitoring application for SAP system which will monitor both Host systems and instances.

These links tell that CCMS agent is replaced by these agents from SAP Netweaver 7.0 Eph 2.
I found below doc which explains "How to use the SAPControl Web Service Interfaces" exposed by "sapstartsrv" to execute instance specific tasks,
But it does not tells any methods/APIs/webservice interfaces specific to Host system or get OS data using "saposcol".
SAP Control WebService
Similar to this, Is there any API/webservice to retrieve the OS and Host related data??.
Also, Is there any other doc for SAPHostControl or saphostexec similar to sapstartsrv ??
Thanks,
Swapnil

Hi Swapnil,
I too wanted this info and came across these.
Take a look at these urls :-
http://localhost:1128/SAPHostControl/?wsdl
http://localhost:1128/SAPOscol/?wsdl
grep saphost /etc/services
saphostctrl 1128/tcp # SAPHostControl over SOAP/HTTP
saphostctrls 1129/tcp # SAPHostControl over SOAP/HTTPS
Hope this helps.

SQL Server 2012 - 3 SQL clustered instances - one default/ two named instances - how assign/should assign static ports for named instances

We have two physical servers hosting 3 SQL 2012 clustered instances, one default instance and two named instances.
The default instance is using port 1433 and the two named instances are using dynamic port assignment.
There is discussion about assigning static port numbers to the two named clustered SQL instances.
What is considered best-practice? For clustered named instances to have dynamic or static ports?
Are there any pitfalls to assigning a static port to a named instance that is a cluster?
Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi RobinMCBC,
In SQL server the default instance has a listener which listens on the fixed port which is TCP port 1433. And for the named instance the port on which the SQL server listens is random and is dynamically selected when the named instance of the SQL server
starts.
For Standalone instance of the SQL server we can change the dynamic port of the named instance to the static port by using SQL server configuration manager as other post, however, in case of the cluster, when we change the port no. of the named instance
to the static port using the method described above, the port no. again changes back to the dynamic port after you restart the services. I recommend you changing the Dynamic port of the SQL Server to static port
on all the nodes , disabling and enabling the checkpointing to the quorum.
For more information, you can review the following article about how to change the dynamic port of the SQL Server named instance to an static port in a SQL Server 2005 cluster.

Unable to set (ssl) certificate on a SQL Server 2012 clustered instance

Hello everyone!
I'm trying to encrypt the SQL Server communication with SSL but I can't add the certificate in the configuration manager. I've found and tried a lot of different explaination but none of them worked. I'll described what I've done and hope someone will point
out what I'm missing.
Here is my situation:
- SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition. Instance name = INSTANCE, FQDN = SQINSTANCE.mydomain.com. The instance is running under a customized service account: mydomain\sql_sa
- Two cluster nodes running Win Server 2008R2: NODE1.mydomain.com and NODE2.mydomain.com. Cluster itself is CLUSTER.mydomain.com
What I've done:
1) Asked the team in charge to generate a certificate issued to "SQINSTANCE.mydomain.com" with aliases to "NODE1.mydomain.com", "NODE2.mydomain.com" and "CLUSTER.mydomain.com". I get a certificate with "p7b"
as extension
2) Connect on "NODE2.mydomain.com" with account "mydomain\sql_sa". Opened MMC and added the certificate under "Personnal" folder. I tried to add it with "Current user" and "Local computer" settings. Saw both
on internet since I use a specific service account
3) Get the thumbprint of the certificate and add it under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.INSTANCE\MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNetLib\Certificate. (I triple checked to remove blanks or special characters)
4) Reboot the node
5) Open the SQL Server Configuration Manager, go to the network properties. Certificate does not appear in the list
I tried to check with certutil and saw the certificate in the output. Some guys talked about some private key but I don't see this particularity in my situation. I tried to check if the certificate is valid and, according to the criterias, it is.
Does anyone can help me with this?

Hi,
Are you sure you've got the certificate correct? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191192.aspx
To use encryption with a failover cluster, you must install the server certificate with the fully qualified DNS name of the virtual server
on all nodes in the failover cluster. For example, if you have a two-node cluster, with nodes named test1.<your
company>.com and test2.<your
company>.com, and you have a virtual server named virtsql, you need to install a certificate for virtsql.<your
company>.com on both nodes. You can set the value of the ForceEncryptionoption
toYes
In your case, shouldn't it be created for CLUSTER.mydomain.com?
Thanks, Andrew
