SQL MP - To configure Run As profiles

Hello Dears,
In SQL MP Guide, section: "To configure Run As profiles", we can associate run as account with run as profile for discovery and monitoring, and this is exactly what I need.
On My SQL Server: MSX-CSQL, I have 2 Instances (MSSQLSERVER and MSSQLSCOM), on each instance I have configured an AD account with min permission.
When I came to Profile such: SQL Server Discovery Account, then page: Run as accounts > Click Add, I find below options:
Class, Group, Object.
1- For my scenario, since I have 2 instance, then I need to define the instance name to associate the run as account
with it, so what shall I select (Class or Group or Object)?
2- After that under Management Pack what shall I select?
Thanks

Hi Jean,
You shall select Class to can monitor all objects in this instance using your run as account.
For more information about Class and Group and Object, you can refer below link
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff678173.aspx
Under Management Pack, you shall select SQL management pack because this account have permission only to monitor this management pack.

SQL server agent job running as Agent Service Account whose service account does not have r/w access but is still able to write?

Hi. I am newer to SQL server security and am reviewing some of our SQL server's configuration to make sure the services are running under accounts with least privilege. I have a SQL server 2012 instance whose Agent service is configured to run
under an AD user account named 'SQLServices'. The jobs on this server are configured to run as 'SQL server agent service account', which means they should execute as user 'SQLServices'. The jobs are set up to execute SSIS packages which read and
write to a database on the same server where the agent job is scheduled and SSIS package installed (all on same server). The jobs are currently executing without error and are reading writing data correctly. Upon close examination, it turns out the
SQLServices account is not assigned to the 'sysadmin' role and had no users mapped to any databases on this server. How are these jobs working? I verified in profiler that the login name indeed is 'SqlServices'. I also verified
that SQLServices login has no database access by remote-ing onto the server and trying to log into the DB, and access was denied as expected. According to the literature, the Agent service needs to be a member of 'sysadmin role' but I am reading
some cases where that is not necessarily the case. So this is not so concerning. What is concerning is that the login 'SQLServices' had no access to the databases on that server yet it is reading and writing to the databases as if it does.
The only thing I can think of is maybe jobs run as 'SQL server agent service account' on the same server as the databases it r/w to somehow has some kind of default access. What am I missing here? Any input would be helpful.

After 2 days on this forum I found the answer to my own question. In retrospect, I should have posted this under 'SQL Server Security', but I didn't know it existed.
The 2 threads below explain that Sql agent actually runs using SID (service) NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT if you chose that when you installed. This will automatically create an associated login NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT in SQL server with sqladmin
role. This is the login that Agent uses to connect to the local instance of SQL server. If you changed to domain account to run the service during install or after using config manager, basically NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT is still
used to connect to your local instance behind the scenes (even though you will still see your domain user as account), and the domain account is used to reach outside the server.

I have tried from so many forms. This is so frustrating. Thank for everyone/anyone who wants to help. So this is what happened: I had to uninstall my previous sqlserver 2012(which worked great) for some reason, and I uninstalled everything from that download.
Then I installed the trial edition of sql server 2012 (64 Bit) and It wouldn't connect to the database. (Error mentioned above.) My local DB is COWBOYS. (COWBOYS is also my computer name.) After this, I have tried downloading sqlexpress and sqlserver 64bit
many times and cannot connect to my local DB.
How do I connect to my Local DB?
Also, I think this might help: (When I run sqlserve.exe, which I was able to find in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\LocalDB\Binn, I get an error: Your SQL server installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with(Error getting
instance ID from name). Please uninstall then re-run setup to correct this problem.
I would happily re install it, if it wasn't my 20th time.
I don't have any remote connections, I don't use username/password, only window authentication. I work mostly on visual studio, but without able to store /retrieve data, I don't know how to survive.
May be the solution is very simple, but I am too frustrated.
Some of the things I have tried:
From a command prompt, enter one of the following commands:
net start "SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER)" OR
net start "SQL Server Agent(instancename)"(for instance)
on my sql configuration, I cannot start anything because there is nothing there to start. I can post more details, if that would help. Also, some more details about the error:

Any one that can help me, I will be greatful. Thank you so much. p.s. please ask me anything if you have any questions.

It sounds like there are a couple things going on here. First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance. Once you find this, make sure the service is started.
If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error. If you get an error, post the error message your hitting. If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect. If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
name in the connection dialog. Ex: "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name. However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format. Ex: COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
is the instance name you set during install).
You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install. Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.

Unable to run Memory profiling, help please

Hi there,
I installed the lastest version of JDeveloper 10 and created a very simple project(only have one class with Main()method) for testing purpose.
I configure the Profiler in Project Properties page, setting the class as included instance, however, all those profiling menu items(e.g.: Memory Profile...) are greyed out and I am unable to run memory profiling.
I wonder if the functions are available for the free-downloaed version of JDeveloper, or is there something wrong with my setting?
Your help is highly appreciated.

Make sure you are positioned on the class in the application navigator before going to the "run" menu option.
Also does it work if you don't change anything in the project properties?
Here is what I did - created a new project with a simple hello class. And I didn't had any problems profiling it.
There is no function limitation on the version you downloaded.
Here is the class I tried:
public class Class1
public Class1()
public static void main(String[] args)
Class1 class1 = new Class1();
System.out.println("hello");
}

Hi,
Check if SQL Server service is running fine. I doubt you may have changed the user account password used for SQL Server service. After restarting the machine, you also need to update the user account of SQL Server service in Configuration
Manager. Re-type the user account name and password under Log on tab and see how it helps.
Thanks.

Error while running User Profile Import - Stopped-extension-dll-load

Hi guys,
I'm receiving below error message in event viewer while running user profile import for the first time with event ID 6166:
The management agent "MOSS-" failed on run profile "MOSS_EXPORT_". The run step stopped because a configured extension for this management agent could not be loaded.
User Action
Verify that the extension is located in the Extensions directory. If the extension is present, confirm that the version of the .NET framework that can run the extension is installed on the server and that a supportedRuntimes entry in the configuration
files specifies that version. The synchronization engine will not be able to load an extension that is built with a newer version of the .NET framework than the version of the .NET runtime it is hosting.
At the same time , in miisclient "stopped-extension-dll-load" message for MOSS_EXPORT,MOSS_FULLSYNC, MOSS_DELTASYNC. Can any help to let me understand what will be causing this issue?
Farm version: 14.0.6137.5000

Hi Sarath,
For this issue, I recommend verify the things below:
Check if the connection name of the Synchronization Connections created in User Profile Service Application has more than 55 characters. If yes, please rename the connection with less than or equal to 55 characters.
Check if the length of the full path to the dll called “Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.ManagementAgent” is
greater than 160. If yes, then we can move the extension Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.ManagementAgent.dll to the folder c:\windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL and then do an IISRESET.
If above cannot work, please check ULS log for more detailed error message.

How Can i solve this?

1. Make sure SQL Server Service is running
2. If a named instance, make sure SQL Server browser service is running
3. Make sure SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections
4. Examine the SQL Server error log for messages confirming that SQL is listening on the expected network interfaces and ports
5. Test server connectivity with PING from the client machine
6. Test port connectivity using TELNET or PowerShell to the server and port (from step 4) from the client machine. For example
a. TELNET <server-name> 1433
b. PowerShell: 1433 | % { echo ((new-object Net.Sockets.TcpClient).Connect("YourServerName",$_)) "server listening on TCP port $_" }
7. Check firewall settings if step 5 or 6 connectivity test fails

Can't find SQL Server 2012 Configuration Manager

In my Win8 I can't find SQL Server Configuration Manager.
I need to connect to an SQL Database using a specific port.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks a lot!!

Hi Lina,
Did you install multiple SQL Server instances on your local server? We can not configure SQL Server 2012 instance under SQL Server 2008 R2 Configuration Manager.
If you had installed SQL Server Configuration Manager with SQL Server 2012, you can try to run "sqlservermanager11.msc". If this is not opening then you might not install SQL Server 2012 Configuration Manager.

SQL Server memory Configuration - SCOM 2012 R2

Hi,
The following article http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg682077#BKMK_SupConfigSQLDBconfig states the following about SQL Server memory configuration for SCCM:
When you use a database server that is co-located with the site server, limit the memory for SQL Server to 50 to 80 percent of the available addressable system memory.
When you use a dedicated SQL Server, limit the memory for SQL Server to 80 to 90 percent of the available addressable system memory.
The question is:
Is there any advice (from technet articles) about SQL Server memory configuration for SCOM 2012 R2?
Thanks in advance!

Hi There,
Read the 5th point below
General SQL Server recommendations for System Center 2012 R2
This information describes general recommendations for SQL Server regardless of what System Center component you are deploying.
You will need a minimum of four computers to deploy all System Center components. Aside from performance reasons, not all system components can coexist on the same computer. For more information, see Component
Coexistence for System Center 2012 R2.
For testing purposes only, one SQL Database Engine Services instance may be used for all components, but is not recommended in a production setting due to performance concerns.
Reporting Services instances cannot be shared between System Center components.
SQL_* collations are being deprecated for their Windows equivalents.
Limit the memory of each SQL Server instance such that the Total Memory setting allows a minimum of 1 GB (2GB preferred) of free memory after all services are running.
System Center components requiring the most disk resources are Service Manager, Operations Manager and Configuration Manager.
Disks used should be formatted to a 64K allocation unit size.
Disks used should be configured to allow 20% free space after all calculations for monitoring. Set growth upper limits to not exceed this space limit.
Pre-sizing is preferred - use auto-grow if needed as it uses more resources.
Set Pre-size to 8GB/2GB as a minimum. 20-30% of the database file size is a rule of thumb.
Set Auto-grow to 500/100 as a minimum.

Unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1

I am unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1. Log message is as follows:
Attempting to load library 'xplog70.dll' into memory. This is an informational message only. No user action is required.
Failed to verify Authenticode signature on DLL 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Binn\xplog70.dll'.
Error: 17750, Severity: 16, State: 0.
Could not load the DLL xplog70.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: (null).

Hi JFriedley,
According to your error message, there might three reasons for this issue.
xplog70.dll is corrupt, you need to check if you have any SQL Server running on same file version and same production
edition. If xplog70.dll is corrupt, you can copy it from the new server where agent is running fine to your problematic server.
Native client not installed properly. If you try applying any latest Service Pack or Cumulative Update then check if the SQL Server Agent can start, if that also doesn’t solve issue then try to reinstalling SQL Server Native client from SQL Server setup
files.
There is a similar issue about error 17750, you can review the following article.

Firefox will not start up, there is no other instance running, and profile manager will not start either.

I try to start Firefox, but it just doesn't start. I have tried every way of starting it I can think of. Nothing that appears Firefox related shows up in the task manager process tab. I don't remember having any kind of crash. There is no error message. (If I click on a URL in an email or something, I get a "general failure" message -- I assume that's because my system is supposed to open FF and can't.)
I rebooted, and tried uninstalling and reinstalling. One of the help thingies suggested using profile manager to change my profile, but it looks like profile manager is part of Firefox, and it won't run.

Make sure that Firefox is completely closed, when you try to run the profile manager.
Can you try to get your crash report ID (without opening Firefox) using the instructions at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+crashes+when+you+open+it#Getting_your_crash_report

SQL 2012 DBCC CHECKDB Run Very Slow

Does anyone experience this? SQL 2012 DBCC CHECKDB runs very slow on one of the server. I monitored the server and it seems DBCC CHECKDB does not hit the disk hard enough.
It can read 100 mb per second on of my slower server, but on this particular server, it only read 1 mb per second. I saw parallel processes, but it just not read disk hard enough. I am curious what causes this? There is no user using the server when I run
DBCC command. The full database restore took 3 hours, but DBCC CHECKDB took more than 11 hours. Thanks for any input.

Hi,
Have you made the change of 'cost threshold for parallelism'? The default value of this is 5. Increasing the cost threshold for parallelism would cause most of the queries including CHECKDB to not execute parallel and hence will tend to
take time to complete. This could be one of the issue contributing to the CHECKDB slow run.
Also, please check if the antivirus is checking SQL Database files:

Here is a good article on CHECKDB time taken to complete.
