Sp_addextendedproperty is not available in sql Azure

Please specify some sort of alternative of 
sp_addextendedproperty in sql azure

Hi sonesh,
According to your description, since the issue regards SQL Azure database. I will help you move the question to the Windows SQL Azure forums at
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=ssdsgetstarted.It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.
In addition, sp_addextendedproperty is not available in SQL Azure databases now. When you create table in SQL Azure database, the columns and other objects can declare with the following comments or you can use a special build of SQL Compare.

  • Data Collector Reports not available for SQL Reporting Services only SSMS

    I never understood this one, why would you program Reporting Services (SSRS) reports inside SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)?
    The reports are available only through the SSMS interface, buried somewhere in the GUI, not easy to find. 
    Please make the MDW reports available on Reporting Services!

    Hello,
    These are not SSRS reports, these are RDLC reports for local rendering in a client application like SSMS; similar, but not the same. The reports are embedded as a resource in an assembly, that's
    the reason why you can't find them.
    You can have a SQL Server installation without Reporting Services; where should be the reports hosted then, if not in SSMS?
    You can create your own SSRS based report; simply use SQL Profiler to capture the queries used by the origin reports.

  • Data Modeler not available within SQL seveloper

    I've normally used data modeler from within SQL developer but installing SQL developer on a note book computer the data modeler was at first available normally, but when I next opened sql developer the Data modeler did not appear in the File menu. I subsequently downloaded the data modeler separately so I can open it that way but could somebody please advise where I've gone wrong.
    thanks John.

    Hi Kent, yes I thought there must have been an option I turned off. I have tried the Tools> Extensions > data modeller and it did indicate there was an update. But when I select it and continue nothing much happens and then it asks to reboot. But data modeller option is still not in the File menu.

  • Find DbObject Wizard is not available in Sql developer 3.0

    Hi,
    when I click on View -> find DB Objects, I m not seeing that screen anymore.
    Initially when I installed for the first time I did use it, but now I cannot find it.
    Is there any issue with the docking ?
    This is most important attribute I like about sql developer which seems to be having some issue in latest version
    Please let us know if there is any preference setting to getting it back.
    I dont want re install it as I ve done lot of preference setting.

  • Why is the PWDCOMPARE function not supported on an Azure SQL Server 2014 database

    I have tried to publish a database from our local SQL Server to Azure but receive an error saying PWDCOMPARE is not supported with no link to a reason why.
    We are using HASHBYTES function to encrypt passwords in our database and
    PWDCOMPARE to validate them and we currently don't have an alternative (see article: http://sqlity.net/en/2460/sql-password-hash/). The PWDCOMPARE function is referenced by a stored procedure,
    which is what won't publish to Azure.
    It would be useful to know if it will be supported or if we should create a VM instead.
    EDIT: Further Clarified question above, but basically the functions listed are documented in MSDN and there is no mention of them being undocumented unsupported features.
    The error occurs when trying to publish a database to Azure from SQL Server 2014 Management Studio

    Hi,
    I am not an expert to answer this but am trying my best to answer this query.
    Hashes a password and compares the hash to the hash of an existing password. PWDCOMPARE can be used to search for blank SQL Server login passwords or common weak passwords.
    Syntax
    PWDCOMPARE ( 'clear_text_password'
       , password_hash
       [ , version ] )
    Note: This feature will be removed in the next version of Microsoft SQL Server. Do not use this feature in new development work, and modify applications that currently use this feature as soon as possible.
    I am not sure whether this feature is not available on SQL 2014.
    I think you can solve this issue by using the EXECUTE AS. Add this query into a procedure with EXECUTE AS with the user/login with sufficient permissions on the server.
     Refer to belw link for more details on EXECUTE AS
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188354.aspx

  • I'm unable to create a new Table on SQL Azure.

    I'm trying to create a new table in my custom database. But i'm getting this error message:
    'Filegroup reference and partitioning scheme' is not supported in this version of SQL Server.'
    Here is the sample create schema:
    CREATE TABLE dbo.[Contact](

    [FirstName] [nvarchar](250) NULL,
    [LastName] [nvarchar](250) NULL,

    ) ON [PRIMARY]
    GO

    In addition to Neil's comment, I would add that one of the major strengths of SQL Azure is its simplicity from an administrative standpoint while providing as much parity as possible for the relational and programming stack.  In somes
    cases, less is more. SQL Azure is an example.  By having a simpler system we are able to get certain capabilities not available on premise. Take a look at the CREATE DATABASE XYZ AS COPY OF operation for example, you do not have to worry about finding
    a server with enough space; you do not have to worry about moving files around a network or creating shares between machines; and best of all, you do not have to any kind or provisioning of cleanup as a result of cloning a database. The upcoming Data Federation
    feature is another example of what you can achieve when you are free of underlying configuration details.
    That's not to say SQL Azure wouldn't benefit from some capabilties of the SQL Server platform (for example TDE); but personally I am happy that two years later we still don't have to worry about many of those low-level configuration details.

  • Backup for Sql Azure Database

    Hi,
    We are using the automatic backup option available with Sql Azure , but it is not working for us and throwing the some error.When we raised the ticket for same we had received reply saying this feature is not supported by MS.
    Could you please advise what is best approch for taking the backup for Sql Azure Database.
    Regards...

    Point in time restore is a great feature to sit along side automated export but not a replacement. Automated Export allows us to keep long term backups (30, 60, 90 days) which are important and also allows the ability to import to my local server a backup
    from a previous day for testing or support reasons.
    RedGate provide a backup service as well but I was hoping by using PIT restore and automated backup together I would no longer need to pay for that third-party service.

  • Error deploying data tier application to SQL Azure at "Registering metadata for database" step ... should I care?

    I'd like to move an on-premesis SQL Server Database to SQL Azure. I've used SQL Mgmt Studio to Extract Data Tier Application and save my db as a dacpac file. Now I'm connected to my Azure server and I've chosen to Deploy Data Tier Application. I select my
    dacpac and the deploy starts but then on the last step "Registering metadata for database" it times out. I've tried it a couple of times and each time the deployed database is there and appears to be fully populated, but I'm not sure if I can ignore
    that error and continue. What is supposed to happen in that step, and should I expect it to fail when deploying to SQL Azure? 
    I'm following the steps here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh694043.aspx in the Using Migration Tools > Data-tier Application DAC Package section, except that to deploy there's no SQL Mgmt Studio > Object Explorer [server]
    > Management >"Data Tier Applications" node, so I'm deploying by right-clicking on the server name and choosing "Deploy Data-tier Application". 
    My (total) guess here is that it's deployed the database fine and it's doing whatever magic happens when you register a data tier application, except that it's not working for SQL Azure. 
    I'm running against a server created for the new Azure service tiers, not against a Web/Business edition server. 
    The full details of error I get are below.

    Hello,
    The registration process creates a DAC definition that defines the objects in the database, and register the DAC definition in the master system database in Windows Azure SQL Database.
    Based on the error message, there is timeout error when connect to SQL Database. Did you deploy a large database? When move large data to Azure SQL Database, it is recommended to use SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) and BCP utility.
    Or you can try to create a client application with the Data-Tier Application Framework (DACFx) client tool to import database and handle connection loss it by re-establish the connection.

    Hello,
    Extended Properties are not supported in SQL Azure.
    To work around this issue, you can use Generate Scripts Wizard to generate script which are compatible with SQL Database and can be compiled on SQL Database without any further modifications. For example, in Choose Script Options, click on the Advanced button
    and, set Script Extended Properties = False.

  • Crystal Reports and SQL Azure

    I'm trying to print a report created by Crystal Reports, which the application is run on the client run, NOT run on Windows Azure, and I grant the client IP to allow it to connect to the SQL Azure to retrieve data for the report.
    However, it throw an exception when the client application process the report file, I try to host the database locally and trace the sql it executed in profiler, then run each sql command on the SQL Azure to find out which line of sql command cause the
    problem.
    Finally, I find out that Crystal Report will call "sp_procedures_rowset" and "sp_columns_rowset", which are not existed on SQL Azure.
    Any workarounds to solve this issue?

    Hi Barry,
    Yes, "sp_procedures_rowset" and "sp_columns_rowset" are not existed on SQL Azure. You
    can check with below statement:
    EXEC 
    sp_helptext
    'sp_procedures_rowset'
    I’m afraid you cannot use it in your report. Could you create your own Stored
    Procedure?

  • SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) 2012 High Availability Solution in Azure VM

    I have been testing an AlwaysOn high availability failover solution in SQL Server Enterprise on an Azure VM, and this works pretty well as a failover for SQL Server Databases, but I also need a high availability solution for SQL Server
    Analysis Server, and so far I haven't found a way to do this.  I can load balance it between two machines, but this isn't working as a failover and because of the restriction of not being able to use shared storage in a Failover Cluster in Azure
    VM's, I can't set it up as a cluster which is required for AlwaysOn in Analysis Services. 
    Anyone else found a solution to use an AlwaysOn High Availability for SQL Analysis Services in Azure VM?  As my databases are read-only, I would be satisfied with even just a solution that would sync the OLAP databases and switch
    the data connection to the same server as the SQL databases.
    Thanks!
    Bill

    Bill,
    So, what you need is a model like SQL Server failover cluster instances. (before sql server 2012)
    In SQL Server 2012, AlwaysOn replaces SQL Server failover cluster, and it has been seperated to
    AlwaysOn Failover Cluster Instances (SQL Server) and
    AlwaysOn Availability Groups (SQL Server).
    Since your requirement is not in database level, I think the best option is to use AlwaysOn Failover Cluster Instances (SQL Server).
    As part of the SQL Server AlwaysOn offering, AlwaysOn Failover Cluster Instances leverages Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC) functionality to provide local high availability through redundancy at the server-instance level—a
    failover cluster instance (FCI). An FCI is a single instance of SQL Server that is installed across Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC) nodes and, possibly, across multiple subnets. On the network, an FCI appears to be an instance of SQL
    Server running on a single computer, but the FCI provides failover from one WSFC node to another if the current node becomes unavailable.
    It is similar to SQL Server failover cluster in SQL 2008 R2 and before.
    Please refer to these references:

  • SQL azure database size not dropping down after deleting all table

    Dear all,
    I have a simple database on Azure for which I have deleted all table data. The size of the database is still showing 5Mb of data and I am charge for that. I have heard that this may happen from cluster index getting fragmented.
    I have run  a querry I found on internet on all my table index to show percentage of fragmentation and all report 0%.
    DBA is not so my job but what could it be or how can I reduce that size ?
    ON premise I would use COMPACT DB but not available in azure like some others DB action
    Thnaks for tips
    regards

    user created objects/data are not the only ones stored in your database. you got system objects and metadata as Mike mentions above.
    are you trying to skip being charged if you're not storing data? looking at the pricing table,  you'll still get charged the $4.995 for the 0-100MB database size range.

Maybe you are looking for
