Setting up MS SQL Server as a physical data source in DAC

Hi everyone,
I'm working with the latest version of BI Apps (7.9.6) and OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1. I've installed Informatica 8.6.1 and DAC on Oracle Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 64bit.
So far, everything has gone along relatively well.
Now I'm hitting an issue as I am trying to setup a DAC physical connection to our source system. We are pulling from a MS SQL Server physical source. When ever I try to connect to the MS SQL server using the DataDirect ODBC drivers from the Linux, it works fine. But when I try to test the connection using the DAC, it fails saying "Failure connecting to "<connection name>"! MSSQL driver not available!"
Has anyone successfully connected to MSSQL server as a source from the DAC? I checked the DAC documentation but it was definitely not helpful in this situation.
Thanks for the advice.
-Joe

I've got an outstanding SR with Oracle at the moment to resolve this same problem. If I get a resolution I'll update this blog.
The problem is microsoft no longer supports MSSQL JDBC Driver 1.1, 1.2. You cannot get the 3 files msbase.jar, mssqlserver.jar and msutil.jar files. It only gives you the sqljdbc.jar file. I'm trying to get these files to see if it makes a difference.
You need to have the four files both on your Windows ~DAC\lib directory and the Unix $DAC_HOME/lib directory. Then make changes to the connection_template.xml to uncomment the SQL SERVER 2000 bit and include the SQL SERVER 2005 bit and finally make changes to the config.sh file to include the following
export SQLSERVERLIB=./lib/msbase.jar:./lib/mssqlserver.jar:./lib/msutil.jar:./lib/sqljdbc.jar

Changing Physical Data Source in DAC

I need to extract data from DEV2 instance of Siebel instead of DEV1.
So i have change the database name, user name and password under Physical Data Sources tab under Setup for the SEBL_VERT_80 datasource.
I have generated parameters and rebuilt the execution plan. However when I run the execution plan some tasks fail and I notice in the session log that the ETL tasks are still trying to extract data from the DEV1 instead of DEV2.
Can someone please let me know what I may be missing? How can I make DAC run ETLs against the DEV2 database?
Thanks

My first thought is that the connections need to be reconfigured in another place.
Have you changed the realtional connections in the Informatica PowerCenter Workflow Manager?
Some worfklows might be configured to retrieve database connection information from there.
- In Worfklow Manager connect to the appropriate repository
- Select "Connections" -> Relational
- Review the connections specified.

can anyone pls help how to set the db offline. currently i stopped the sql server services from services.msc and started the sql server agent.
should i stop both services for moving from one drive to another?
note: I tried teh below solution but this didint work:
ALTER DATABASE <DBName> SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
Update:
now am getting the message :
Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40

First you should have checked the database mdf/ldf name and location by using the command
Use CMP_143
Go
Sp_helpfile
Looks like your database CMP_143 was successfully detached but mdf/ldf location or name was different that is why it did not get copied to target location.
Database is already detached that’s why db offline failed

The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.

Attached step is failing as there is no mdf file

Solution:
Search for the physical files(mdf/ldf) in the OS and copy to target location and the re-run sp_attach_db with right location and name of mdf/ldf.

Failed to set security on SQL Server registry key. Error: 2

Hi,
I have a Primary site (mixed mode) running SCCM 2007 SP1 for many months now with no issues.
This site is made up of two Win 2008 sp2 servers sharing the SCCM roles:-
SCCM01 - Site server, DP, RP, PXE and SQL2005 hosting the SCCM database
SCCM02 – SUP, MP, FSP, SLP
The SQL2005 on SCCM01 is running under a domain service account called
domain\service_sccm which is also a sysadmin in SQL as is the SCCM02 server.
In an effort to resolve the isse I have made this account a Domain Admin.
I have also used this account to log onto SEC01 to run the Secondary Site installation and to be the SQL Service account.
I'm now trying to add a Secondary Site on a Domain Controller called SEC01 (also Win2008 sp2) and on the same LAN as the SCCM01/02.
This is where I get problems.
I run the installation locally on the Sec Site server (DC) as a Domain Admin and the installation completes OK (all green ticks),
the ComponentSetup.log and Pre-Reqs are all good as well however when I check the ConfigMgrSetup.log I see the below -
Failed to set security on SQL Server registry key. Error: 2.

Adding the PMP role to SEC01 also fails to install and no MPSetup or MPControl logs are created.
WebDav and win2008 roles, features all added and server fully patched.
Despooler.log on SCCM01 seems good and passing keys.
Tried installing to default path and to shortened path such as C:\SCCM
The new secondary site is listed in the console and an address can be added for the Secondary Site
BITS Server Extensions and Remote Differential Compression Features are enabled.
The Group memberships all appear ok:-
SCCM01
Local Admins
contains the sec site server SEC01, SCCM01, installation accounts
SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_001
SEC01 (the sec site server)
SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_001
SCCM02
SEC01
No Local Admins as a DC
SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_002
SCCM01
SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_002
empty
SQL 2005
This has the account logged in during installation as a sysadmin
SCCM02 is also sysadmin
The fundamental issue appears to be that the SEC01$ server account is not being added to SQL Logins (and therefore SCCM database Roles)
therefore the installation cannot complete.
I have tried to manually add the SEC01 account to SQL Logins before installation of Sec Site but this did not work.
Not sure if the fact that SEC01 is a DC may be a factor.
Appreciate any help if anyone has seen this before or can suggest a resolution.
Thanks

After a lot of digging around and head scratching I eventually found the resolution.
The original thread title Error turned out to be a bit of a red herring in that my failure to deploy Sec Sites came down to two separate issues seemingly unrelated to the error message of the thread title.
The first part of the resolution was to manually create the SQL Server accounts for the Sec Site Servers and assign them to the smsdbrole_MP DB role to
let the SQL side of the SCCM install complete a s these were not being created automatically.
This then left the fact that that the installation of the Sec Site completed successfully according to the install logs in C:\ however the DP and MP would
never install.
The big clue was eventually contained in the mpfdm.log errors relating to
**ERROR: Cannot find path for destination inbox SMS_AMT_PROXY_COMPONENT on server REGISTRY SMS_MP_FILE_DISPATCH_MANAGER
and
**ERROR: Cannot find path for destination inbox Asset Intelligence KB Manager on server REGISTRY SMS_MP_FILE_DISPATCH_MANAGER
Thankfully the errors led me to these two blogs:
http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/scassells/archive/2009/07/20/error-cannot-find-path-for-destination-inbox-sms-amt-proxy-component-on-server-registry.aspx
and
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrsetup/thread/5fcc53d4-8629-4b34-9eaa-6cb020eedc13/
As it turned out the SCCM installation registry and folder creation does not complete and I had to manually enter the reg settings as detailed in the
links above to complete the installation. Once I did as described everything worked a treat – all my MPs and DPs are 100% now.

Add the following reg keys to each of your effected secondary sites.

How do I set up Azure Sql Server to have multiple instances?

Hi all;
We are setting up a new SAAS application on Azure and while we have used Azure before, not at this level of multiple apps, etc.
We plan to have both a web app and a cloud app in both a US and EU data center. They need to hit a common database because requests will go to the closest data center via traffic manager and a lot of the data works off of the customer table. And a customer
(company) can have users in both the U.S. and E.U.
Is there a way to set up Azure Sql Server so it has instances in both data centers, and Azure keeps them synchronized? If I understand sharding right, that is not what we need as someone hitting either data center could be requesting any of the data in the
DB.
thanks - dave
What we did for the last 6 months -
Made the world's coolest reporting & docgen system even more amazing

Hi,
As far as I am aware, when you set the webapp/cloudapp to connect to a database you will have to specify the connection string in the app. The app will hit the database which is mentioned in the connection string you have specified. So it is not automatic
or Traffic manager. You have full control over it as you can tell your app to connect whichever database you want.The database could be located in any region, however the you have to keep latency in mind as the app in US Datacenter could be calling the Database
in EU, if that is they way it is setup.
You can have separate databases in each region and use Azure Data Sync
to have the database synchronized, however please keep in mind that Azure Data Sync is in Preview.

Mekh.

Setting up Microsoft SQL Server datasource in Websphere 4.0

Does anyone know how to setup an SQL Server jdbc driver in Websphere 4.0? I am using jdbc driver from jTurbo. But I am having trouble specifying the proper URL and other datasource settings in Websphere 4.0 (or WTE) server configuration.

Hi,
Please find the extract from jTurbo site (http://www.newatlanta.com/support/jturbo/third-party.jsp#WebSphere)
which will explain the steps to follow for setting up Microsoft SQL Server datasource
in Websphere 4.0 using jTurbo jdbc driver.
1.Always make sure the JTurbo.jar is set in your classpath.
2.Started "WebSphere Admin Server"
3.Open "WebSphere Administrative Console"
4.Install the JTurbo Driver into WAS by modifying the following field of "Admin DB Driver"
Name: JTurbo
Class Name: com.ashna.jturbo.driver.Driver
URL prefix: jdbc:JTurbo://localhost/pubs
JTA Enabled: false
(apply changes which resulted in the installation of JTurbo Driver)
5.Selected "Create Data Source" in Console "Wizards" drop down
6.Selected "Use an already installed JDBC Driver" JDBC Option
7.Specified "my ds name" as the "Data Source Name"
Specified "pubs" as the "Database Name" pull down is showing "JTurbo"
This should sucessfully create a new data source by the name of "my ds name".
Also there is an excellent document on "Configuring the Merant ConnectJDBC data source for MS SQL Server for the WebSphere Application Server Advanced Single Server Edition" at http://www-4.ibm.com/software/webservers/appserv/doc/v40/ae/infocenter/was/was402/rn112253.4.html .
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Msg 0, Sev 0, State 1: Unknown token received from SQL Server [SQLSTATE HY000] String data, right truncation [SQLSTATE 01004] [SQLSTATE 08S01] error

I'm looking for some general guidance on this complete error:
Msg 0, Sev 0, State 1: Unknown token received from SQL Server [SQLSTATE HY000]
String data, right truncation [SQLSTATE 01004]
Msg 16389, Sev 16, State 1: The connection is no longer usable because the server response for a previously executed statement was incorrectly formatted. [SQLSTATE 08S01]
This error is caused by a SQL Agent Job, but it does not always occur. I understand this could be an issue with SQL dropping the connection, but what is the best way to troubleshoot this?
Thanks,
Phil

Hi philliptackett77,
It would be more helpful for troubleshooting the issue if you post the SQL Server error log and SQL Server version. Additionally, please state what purpose of using the agent job.
Based on my research, [SQLSTATE 08S01] error means communication link failure. If the executed statement returns invalid value in the job, the connection between server and client will fail. This error could be caused by the error of [SQLSTATE HY000] and
[SQLSTATE 01004]. I’d like to share my knowledge about these errors as below.
Quote: String data, right truncation [SQLSTATE 01004]
This error could occur when passing data whose length is larger than the received object,and the passed value is truncated, and returns invalid value. So please check if the data type of the objects are identical and the length of passed value is not larger
than the received object.
Quote: Msg 0, Sev 0, State 1: Unknown token received from SQL Server [SQLSTATE HY000]
The error could occur in the two cases below.
1. If you use SQL Server version 6.50, and execute the cursor in the job step, set the statement options to use a server-side cursor and prepare a select statement on a SQL Server system table. The first execution of the select creates the cursor successfully.
After you close this cursor, if you execute the prepared statement again, the error could occur.
I recommend you to apply the latest service pack firstly. If the error still occurs, you could change your code by using a forward-only cursor instead of a static, keyset, or dynamic cursor on the system tables. If a forward-only cursor is unacceptable,
prepare the select statement again on the system table and execute it to create a server-side cursor. For more information about the process, please refer to the article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/151693/en-us
2. The TDS stream from the server is invalid when transfer data between a database server and a client. This error is typically caused by a problem on the server. For more information about errors above, please refer to the article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa937531(v=sql.80).aspx

How to create a .mdf SQL Server database from a Data-Tier Application file that has data?

This is a noob question, though I do use SQL Server databases all the time with Entity Framework when I code in C# using Visual Studio 2013. The development environment is found below at [A]. I am trying to make a clone of a SQL Server 2008 R2
database (.mdf) that exists online. I can read, connect and work with this database in Visual Studio 2013, but I wish to make a local copy of the database, as an .MDF file. Somewhere in my notes I have a way of creating a local copy from
an online database when using Visual Studio but I forgot how (it seems, reviewing my notes, that it deals with ADO.NET which is deprecated in Visual Studio 2013 these days, or so it seems). So I'm looking for another way. What I did was create
(or export) a "Data-Tier Application File" from the online SQL Server database, with data, and it seems to have worked in that this Data-Tier Application file exists on my hard drive and seems to have data in it ("SQL Server Replication Snapshot"
is the format it seems). It contains skeleton code to create a database, but when I tried to execute it with SQL Server 2014 Management Studio, I got a bunch of errors.
So my question is:
1) Can I somehow create a .MDF SQL Server Database from an Data-Tier Application file that has data? What tool do I use? I saw this link, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2639.how-to-use-data-tier-application-import-and-export-with-a-windows-azure-sql-database.aspx
and it relates to Azure, but is there a tool for C#Visual Studio 2013, standalone?
2) If there's an easy way to create a .mdf SQL Server Database file from an online file, within SQL Server Management Studio? I don't think so, since it would require Administrator permissions on the online server, which I don't have. I have permission
to read, update, delete the online database file, but strangely not to download it (the service I use has a tool for backup, but not for download).
3) same question as 2), but for Visual Studio 2013? I don't think so, since I notice none of the templates even mentions ADO.NET anymore, but instead they go with Entity Framework. Using EF I can of course do anything I want with the online database
(CRUD), but it remains online. Maybe there's a switch to make a local copy? I guess I could write a short program to suck all the data out of the online database and put it into a new, duplicate database having the same tables, that I create on
my localhost, but my question here is if there's an easier way than this, maybe a tool or command I can run from inside Visual Studio?
Any advice on any of the above questions is appreciated.
Thank you,

Thanks but these links are too general to help.
"2. what do you mean by online file?" - I mean the SQL Server database file is on a remote web server that I rent from, but I am not the administrator of. I can access my database using SQL Server Authentication, but nothing more.

What do you mean by too general? It explains on how you can use data tier application to create and deploy databases

Can we use SQL Server as a primary data storage for SharePoint 2013?

Is it possible to use external SQL Server as a primary data storage for SharePoint 2013?
Having this implemented we can generate reports, query data and it would become very very powerful to use.
Or
Is there a way to keep on using existing content databases and using external SQL Server as a secondary data storage at the same time. So I want it to be like redundant data in SQL Server.
Thanks

Hi，
Not sure if I understand your question correctly, SharePoint has its own content database storing SharePoint list data, we can use SSRS/SSAS integated with SharePoint mode to use sharepoint list as datasource to generate reports.

Data warehouse Admin Console - MySQL Physical Data Source

We have some tables on a MySQL database that we'd like to include in our ETL process. The data is to be loaded into our Oracle 11g R1 data warehouse after the transformations are completed.
Everything works with the exception of adding a physical data source in the DAC (Data warehouse administration console) for the MySQL database. There is no connection type for this database. I don't see how it's setup in the documentation.
Can someone explain what needs to be done or direct me to the docs? Or, can this be done?
Does it have to be done? The connection details are stored in the odbc.ini file on the server. So that's managed by Informatica. Will the workflow call from the DAC be sufficient?
Thanks,
LWatkins
DAC 10.1.3.4.0.20080729.2025
Informatica PowerCenter 8.1.1
AIX 5.3/64Bit
OBIA 7.9.5
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit
MySQL 5.5
Edited by: LWatkins on Mar 25, 2013 12:32 PM

I would suggest this work only if you are able to connect MySQL thru Informatica;
1) Create Connection in Worflow Manager and try to use the same connecton in sessions and try to avoid parameters from dac
2) Create same connection in DAC pointing to Oracle or MSSQL or DB2
3) Add tasks in DAC and do not add source and target tables
Another workaround to handling full loads using dac system variables or any other
If helps mark

DAC Physical data source not visible in task tab

Hello
I successfully created a new physical source and it connects well also. Then I went to the tasks tab and created a new task but I can't see the new physical data source I just created. How do I broadcast/publish or push the connection details to the tables, tasks, etc? You know without this even execution plan would fail
Any help would be helpful
Thanks

Hi
If the task is of type Informatica,I think it is because that you didnot synchronize the task,If it is not informatica rather a stored procedure or so........you need to add target tables......Hope this helps

to have the database synchronized, however please keep in mind that Azure Data Sync is in Preview.

MS SQL Server Indexed View in Data Modeler

Hi All,
I'm fairly new to Data Modeler. Tried to search the forums for this but couldn't find anything. I'm trying to figure out how to create (in a SQL Server 2008 physical model) a view with a clustered index in Data Modeler v. 3.3. Seems like it is supported per the below link, however I can't seem to find a reference to it in the application.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
you need to create/open physical model for MS SQL Server and find view presentation there. Set the view property "Schema Binding" to yes.
However I see some problems in definition of such index and DDL generation for view and logged a bug for that.
