SQL 2012 Database Availability Group - Force Automatic Failover
Hi All,
I'd appreciate some help in understanding the following scenario in my test environment.
I have created a DAG with 2 replica servers (both of which are HyperV VM's running W2012 Std).
From a client PC in my test lab, I can connect to the virtual listener of my DAG and confirm via the "select @@servername" command that I am connecting to the primary replica server.
Using the Failover Wizard, I can easily move to primary instance between my 2 nodes and the command above confirms that the primary replica server has changed. So far so good.
What I wanted to test, was what would happen to my DAG in the event of a complete loss of power to the server that was acting as the primary replica server. At first, I thought I would stop the SQL Server service on the primary server, but this did not result
in my DAG failing over to the secondary replica. I have found out that the only way I can do this is by effectively shutting down the primary server in a controlled manner.
Is there any reason why either stopping the SQL Server service on the primary replica, or indeed forcing a power off of the primary replica does not result in the DAG failing over to the secondary replica?
Thanks,
Bob
Hi,
I would verify if Database Availability Group means AlwaysOn Availability Group.
How did you set the FailureConditionLevel?
Whether the diagnostic data and health information returned by sp_server_diagnostics warrants an automatic failover depends on the failure-condition level of the availability group. The failure-condition level specifies what failure conditions
trigger an automatic failover. There are five failure-condition levels, which range from the least restrictive (level one) to the most restrictive (level five). For details about failure-conditions level, see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh710061.aspx#FClevel
There are two useful articles may be helpful:

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
It's an AlwaysOn Availability Group.
In my test lab, I have changed the quorum configuration to a file share witness and that has allowed an automatic failover when I turn the primary replica server off (rather than power it off).
I'll take a look at the links you provided.

Bob

Orchestrator 2012 R2 on SQL 2012 SP1 Availability Group
Hi all,
I've recently setup a new install of SCOrch 2012 R2 on a SQL 2012 SP1 Availability Group. Everything went smooth and appears to be functioning correctly up until a failover occurs (manual or automatic). Once there is a failover between database
nodes, the Orchestrator servers (Mgmt and Runbook) lose connectivity to the database and will not reconnect until the services are restarted and then they work again.
Has anyone setup Orchestrator on an Availability Group and are you seeing similar issues from a failover?
Thanks!
JonHi Jon,
has each member of the availability group the same master key to read encrypted data like passwords and the license code?

Will SCCM 2012 R2 , SCOM 2012 R2 and SCDPM R2 2012 support SQL 2012 AlwaysOn Availability Group ?
Hi,
It is listed here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn281933.aspx
Configuration Manager 2012 r2 and DPM 2012 r2 does not support AlwaysOn.

SQL server 2012 - Database Availability Group
We have 2 new Servers ready to be deployed as Database Servers for Sharepoint 2013.
both server have 1TB RAID 5 Hard Disk Space.
We don't have any kind of Shared Storage/SAN etc & we cannot afford to buy this.
I have Configured Windows Server Fail-over Cluster with File Share Quorum.
May i Configure the SQL Database 2012 on Each Server on local disk and then make High Availability Groups?As well as the youtube video that Edwin has posted for you have a read of my article on SimpleTalk.com.
https://www.simple-talk.com/sql/database-administration/sql-server-2012-alwayson/
This takes you through the step by step process.

File Share Witness Resouces Errors in a SQL 2012 Alwayson Availability Group Environment
Hi I am getting the following error in WFC Manager and in my system event log:
Event ID1564:
File share witness resource 'File Share Witness' failed to arbitrate for the file share '\\SQL2012ClusterWitnessPath'. Please ensure that file share '\\SQL2012ClusterWitnessPath' exists and is accessible by the cluster.
Event ID 1069:
Cluster resource 'File Share Witness' of type 'File Share Witness' in clustered role 'Cluster Group' failed.
Based on the failure policies for the resource and role, the cluster service may try to bring the resource online on this node or move the group to another node of the cluster and then restart it. Check the resource and group state using Failover Cluster
Manager or the Get-ClusterResource Windows PowerShell cmdlet.
Event ID 1205:
The Cluster service failed to bring clustered service or application 'Cluster Group' completely online or offline. One or more resources may be in a failed state. This may impact the availability of the clustered service or application.
These errors showed up every hour on the hour and then suddenly stopped. I tried looking at the cluster.log file but there wasn't anything recorded there. The file share witness shows to be online and my AG did not fail over to another node.
The cluster has read and write permissions to the share. I did not find any error messages about the witness share on the remote server.
I am wondering what caused these series of events to occur?
Thanks.Hi Kevin Ni,
Thanks for your reply. I have ran the validation test and I have 2 warnings. My environment has 2 nodes and 2 AG's with each node a failover for each AG. So that each node hosts and primary and a secondary of an AG. Both nodes are
on the same subnet. Here are the errors.
- Validate Multiple Subnet Properties
The RegisterAllProvidersIP property causes the network name to register all dependent IP addresses whether they are online or offline. Some DNS servers and clients in multi-subnet (multi-site) environments can identify the IP address that is in their subnet
and attempt connections only to that address. In such environments, it is usually best to set RegistrerAllProvidersIP to 1. This reduces DNS replication delays.
The RegisterAllProvidersIP property for network name 'Name: Listener1' is set to 1. For the current cluster configuration this value should be set to 0.

- Validate Network Communication
Node ONE.domain.com is reachable from Node TWO.domain.com by multiple communication paths, but each path includes network interface TWO.domain.com - TWO_NIC_Team. This network interface may be a single point of failure for communication within the
cluster. Please verify that this network interface
is highly available or consider adding additional networks or network interfaces to the cluster.

I have node TWO setup with NIC Teaming. Node ONE is also setup with NIC teaming but it also has a second IP address but the second IP address cannot communicate with node TWO. -
Transaction Log Truncate not working on Sql Server 2012 High Availability Groups
Hi Everyone
Firstly I have tried to search the forum for similar issues but can't seem to find any that match our situation.
We have a SQL Server 2012 High Availability Group with 2 Nodes
Node 1 = Primary
Node 2 = Secondary
Backup Schedule as follows
Full Database Backup @ 00:00
Transaction Log Backup every 30 minutes from 00:30:00 till 23:59:59.
These backups are run by Maintenance Jobs, but we have also tried doing direct backups in SSMS using Backup Database and Backup Log commands.
Before we configured the High Availability group the transaction log backups worked fine.
After we configured the High Availability group we performed a Full Backup and the T-Log schedule did the T-Log backup. The 1st T-log backup truncated the log (Used space Decreased) as expected.
However subsequent T-Log backups do not truncate the T-Log.
This happens both in our acceptance and Live environments. This also happens when running the backups as a Backup operator and sysadmin, this does not seem to be a permissions issue at all.
We have tried running the Backup on the Primary and Secondary Replica.
What about High Availability groups could stop Transaction Log Backups from not truncating the log?
Thanks

Use a SQL 2012 database server with Reporting Services 2008?
Hello, we have a SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services Standard server with the reporting databases running on a SQL Server 2008 Standard database server. I would like to upgrade the database server to SQL Server 2012 before I upgrade the reporting server.
Can I run SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services against a 2008-version database running on a SQL 2012 database server? Thanks for your help.
Hi Nicole
Thanks for your posting.
Are you asking if we can connect from SSRS 2008 r2 to a database sitting on SQL Server 2012. Am I right?, please ignore me if I misunderstood your question. If that is your question
then I think you will be able to using BIDS 2008, I have created A database on SQL Server 2012 and I use that database table inside my SSRS 2008 R2 dataset. I can even think that you can use a database of compatibility level of 2012(110) as well
Many thanks

Database Availability Group Missing on 2 Exchange Servers
I have a an existing Exchange 2007 setup and installed 2 Exchange 2013 servers that have the Mailbox and CAS role. When I go to the ECP menu and click on databases there is no option available to create the DAG.
I Don't think that the Exchange 2013 installation is successful. If it successful then it might have been a problem with RBAC Roles which were not delegated properly to the account you are using to logon to ECP.
Try below and check if you are able to create DAG.
1. Create a New User and make it a member of Organization Management, Enterprise admins, Domain Admins, Schema Admins,
Built-in Administrators, Group policy Creator Owners and run the command below on the powershell: Set-User NewUser -RemotePowershellEnabled:$True
2. Logoff and Login Back using the Newly create account and check if you are able to see the option to Create DAG.
IF you are not able to then Open Windows Powershell as administrator and run the commands below
Add-Pssnapin *Setup
Install-CannedRBACRoleAssignments -InvocationMode Install
Install-CannedRBACRoles
Install-CannedRBACRoleAssignmentsRAP
Install-CannedAddressLists
Lastly, i would also ask you to get the output of the command below:
Get-ManagementRoleAssignment -Role "Database Availability Groups" -RoleAssignee OriginalUserWhoDontHaveCreateDagOptiononECP

Exchange Database Availability Group
Hi,Long time lurker here, i always find what i need on spice works whenever looking for help, however i couldn't find a clear answer to my question this time, hence my first post!
I am currently going through planning a secondary exchange server to be paired with our current exchange in a DAG fail over, Ive been reading through some guides and online help it doesn't seem too difficult.However, the guide i was looking at (http://exchangeserverpro.com/installing-an-exchange-server-2013-database-availability-group/) said you need to move the mailbox database your going to replicate from the default path, now as Ive only been at this company six months i didn't set up the exchange and it currently sits at the default path, and the company works around the clock so finding a reasonable time for downing exchange for this will be difficult.So...

SQL Server Alwayson availability groups automation
Hi all,
I had configured SQL Server always on availability groups on windows server 2012 and it was successful.
I’ve installed and successfully configured our SQL Server 2012 AlwaysOn 2-node windows cluster servers. I've gotten AlwaysOn working great, and our
Front End servers for the Intranet will be using SharePoint 2013. The glitch is that SharePoint 2013 is configured to add databases automatically to our SQL Server 2012 back end, but NOT to AlwaysOn. As we know “we must manually find, select, back-up and then
add those new databases individually to get them into AlwaysOn."
But wait; that can be quite a task, constantly checking the SQL Server back-end servers to see what databases were created, then having to add them
into AlwaysOn, 7/24!
Im looking for an automated script or process that will check for new databases, back those new databases up in FULL mode, (for being added to AlwaysOn, of course) then
add those databases to Always On, all automatically.
Requirements:
Every time the newly created or added databases should be full backed up once in the shared location with automated script.
Newly created database should be added into always on group and should be added to available replica automatically with the TSQL script
Regards,
SQL LOVER.awaiting for responses.
Kindly help the bewlo request.
Newly created database should be added into always on group and should be added to available
replica automatically with the TSQL script and perform restoration.
There is no out of the box solution for this. You may want to created a SQL Job (PowerShell) which can detect database which is newly created and perform steps to add new database to AG.
1. take full backup.
2. Take log backup.
3. restore then on secondary.
4. Add database to AG

DPM backup with SQL FCI and Availability groups
Ok im currently using an availability group on top of a SQL failover cluster and im having trouble getting DPM to work this setup.
When i create my protection group i can find my AG wrapper name under the failover cluster instance group but i see this is the windows cluster service but doesnt include any databases below. The only place i can find the relevant database is looking
under the sql cluster instance and the database appears i can tick this and proceed. The problem comes when im running a consistency check, when this is run it says "DPM failed the current backup because the previously standalone SQL database is
now part of a SQL Availability Group."
I think DPM cant handle the availability group on top of the failover cluster instance.
We are currently running SC DPM 2012 SP1.
Anyone come across a resolve to this?
ThanksJamesBX are
you talking about secondary replica with synchronous commit? I have two node FCI which is primary replica in my AG and a secondary stand-alone instance on another node which is secondary replica.
I have tried with all possibilities, but without success. -
If you have a table with a unique index and ignore_dup_key = on and you INSERT rows into that table with an ORDER BY clause (because you want to control which of the duplicate
key rows gets inserted), the wrong row gets inserted in SQL2012. It works correctly in SQL 2008.
We have recently migrated a database from SQL 2008 to SQL 2012. We do have few other dbs which are in compatability mode 100. The above operation works fine
in SQL 2008 dbs but not SQL 2012.
I've even tried applying the latest patch for SQL 2012 SP2 with CU2. Still the problem exists. I'm going to call MS support, but want to know if anyone has come across this problem ?The MS documentation doesn't guarantee that the first row of the duplicates will always be inserted and the next duplicate row(s) get(s) ignored. Where did you find it in the MS documentation? I think you were just lucky that it was always inserting the
first row in SQL 2008 (and ignoring the rest of the duplicates) - I don't think this is guaranteed

Backup and Restore of DQS (Data Quality Service SQL 2012) Databases
We are currently using DPM 2010 running on Server 2008 R2 as our backup solution. We will soon be leveraging the Data Quality Services in SQL 2012 along with the Master Data Service.
In the SQL 2012 documentation from Microsoft it states, “The backup and restore operations of the DQS databases must be synchronized.”
Otherwise the restored Data Quality Server will not be functional. Currently I believe that DPM will run serialized backups of databases from one SQL server.
I was hoping someone could point me towards some documentation for backing up DQS with DPM.
Is anybody currently doing this? If so have you been successful restoring?LogicalName cant be same for mdf and ldf. verify again with FILELISTONLY. Also you have put wrong logical name
MOVE N'OriginalDB' TO N'D:\sql data\TargetDB.mdf'
Please paste the output of
RESTORE FILELISTONLY FROM DISK = 'D:\backup.bak' -
Secure login to sql 2012 database for webusers
We build up a new website in .net mvc 4.0 on a w2012 server with MSSQL 2012 database.
We use windows autentification and normal anonymous access through NT AUTHORITY\IUSR who is also a login in the database.
But we make extra login possibility for users who are registered and they can insert and modify data in some tables in the database. And I'am afraid of giving NT AUTHORITY\IUSR insert and update for some column in tables.
I think of set up a new login for the database. Run a new connection string on login and set up special permission for that extra user on the database, set up a new role and let the new user become member, but also let the user become a member of the ordinary
user(roles) in the database.
Have anyone any idea what is the best practice here and the most secure way to do it?
Any links for other resources about this topic?
Or perhaps my fear for using NT AUTHORITY\IUSR is groundless
And perhaps someone has links to resources for using SQL server as a backendserver for websites.
Knut from Norway!I don't know much about web servers, which may explain your alternatives entirely.
But, if you use the same connection string for reads that you do for updates, then you must control all permission for writes in the web app. And you must be sure that you only use parameterised SQL or stored procedures, so that there is no risk for SQL
injection.
If you give special logins for the users with read access, they would need their own accounts in SQL Server. If this is an intranet site, the web server may be able to impersonate these users and then connect to SQL Server. If that does not work out, you
would have to create SQL logins for these.
Obviously, this requires more administration, but it is also more secure, because you are adding a line of defence. Even if your application is free from SQL injection vulnerabilities today, some new badly educated kid on the block could open a hole two
years later.

SQL 2012 Database Mirroring Issue is stalling
hi All,
I have a SQL 2012 Enterprise Primary and DR SQL Clusters.
I have a 500 GB TDE Enabled Using HSM SQL DB which I have mirrored across to DR.
I am noticing that my Logs are shipping to DR, but the Unrestored Log size is huge and My restore rate is about 0 - 80KB/Sec. This is Causing the unrestored
Log to grow on the DR side.
I also notice at times my Unsent Log is also getting big after any DB Maintenance activities (such as rebuild of indexes).
I have a dedicated connection between my datacenters and the traffic thruput is quite reasonable and I am able to copy out a 2GB File across within a few
minutes. I see no packet drops within my links.
How do I ensure that my unsent logs are copied out and also increase my restore rate in DR side.
Any help / Suggestions will be much appreciated.
Regards
Aravin.You need to limit the amount of reindexing you do on your primary/principal as it generates a lot of logs which slows down mirroring and log shipping.
