SQL Server 2000-2005/2008 Upgrade

I was wondering if there was anyone out there who had been using SQL Server 2000, and upgraded it to SQL 2005/2008 during a tools upgrade? We are currently on tools 8.44 and performance is bogging down at times on SQL 2000. Curious to see if and what your experiences were? Also has anyone had any success data archiving with tools 8.44?
Appreciate replies

Hi,
I have successfully done an upgrade from tools 8.44 to 8.49 (also sql server 2000 to 2005 sp3) in 2009
The performance was way better in 2005, also managing the database :).. also you wont hav to face the dreadful deadlock problem in 2005
I should say that this activity was part of an application+tools upgrade

Data Import from Oracle Dump to SQL Server(2000/2005)

Hi Friends,
I'm using Oracle 10g.
I've a scenario.
I've Oracle Dump file. Now i would like import in SQL Server(2000/2005).
Can any one suggest me how to do this?
Any idea,clue will be highly appreciated.

I think you will need to import the data into SQL Server from an ASCII flat file using SQL Server DTS if avialable. You can use SQL Plus to extract the data outof Oracle into comma delimited flat files and then use SQL Server DTS load into the SQL Server database.

SQL Server 2000 and 2008 Standard Edition

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any auditing limitations in the standard editions of SQL server 2000 and 2008 R2.
I'm interested to know if there are audit functions for user auditing like creation, deletion and logons
Can't seem to find any information about this.

In addition to Shanky notes, please have a look at these article:

SQL Server 2000\2005 compatibility with Active Directory 2012

Hi All,
We are currently using Active Directory 2003 and will be upgrading to AD 2012. I'm trying to determine if there is any known compatibility issues when running older versions of SQL Server (2000 and 2005) when upgrading to AD 2012. I've
read forums from when others went from AD 2003 to AD 2008 and didn't experience any issues. We have the newer versions of SQL but I'm not too concerned about these. Any advice would be greatly appreciated? Has anyone been through
this process.
Thanks,

Hi CraftsmanRobert,
Based on my understanding, you used Active Directory 2003, then it would be upgraded to Active Directory 2012. You wanted to run older versions of SQL Server (2000 and 2005) with Active Directory 2012.
Firstly, there can be a compatibility problem when run older version with Active Directory 2012. SQL Server 2005 (the release version and service packs) and earlier versions of SQL Server are not supported on Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012,
Windows 8.1, or Windows 8. For more information, please refer to this article: How to use SQL Server in Windows and Windows Server environments (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2681562/en-us).
Besides, Microsoft doesn’t provide assisted support for SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 already. Please upgrade the existing instance of SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 to a new version like SQL Server 2012. You can download SQL Server 2012 Express
from this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29062.

Inserting data into MS SQL server 2000/2005 - JEE application

Hello everyone,
Looking at the Tutorial, roster, under ejb, it uses EntityManager and persistence to insert and access data from the, what i presume the Java DB. So i tried it with my applications. I get no errors when I insert the data. Only that it is not going into the DB, which is an external database, MS SQL server. Does this mean I can only insert and access data from the database through sql statements?
Help!
Thanks
eve

Hello everyone,
I have made progress on this. And if anyone requires more details check this website:
http://www.webagesolutions.com/knowledgebase/javakb/jkb006/index.html
Also please check your firewalls when dealing with external DB. For example, the windows firewall blocks the server from access MS server DB. So in an actual of fact, my above problem was working, only that it was probably directing data to the Java DB included in the application server 9.
The progress so far, is good. The persistence xml seems to create the Tables into the database. But it does not enter data into the database. Below is the error I get:

Any suggestions will help. If not I hope this helps somebody else. Thanks for all your help

Dropping multiple tables having common prefix in SQL Server 2000/2005

Hi
I used the below to drop tables having common prefix like 'GPN'
DECLARE @id varchar(255) DECLARE @dropCommand varchar(255) DECLARE tableCursor CURSOR FOR SELECT name FROM sys.tables WHERE NAME LIKE 'GPN%' OPEN tableCursor FETCH next FROM tableCursor INTO @id WHILE @@fetch_status=0 BEGIN SET @dropcommand = N'drop table ' + @id EXECUTE(@dropcommand) FETCH next FROM tableCursor INTO @id END CLOSE tableCursor DEALLOCATE tableCursor
The point is this works in SQL2005 but not in SQL2000
In SQL 2000 we get errors like
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Must declare the variable '@dropcommand'.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Must declare the variable '@dropcommand'.
Tried the following as well : SELECT table_name FROM Information_Schema.TABLES WHERE table_name LIKE
but ended up with the same error.
Please let me know where i am going wrong and how i can correct it
Purushothama

Hi.
As far as I know SQLS2000 uses syntax:
EXEC sp_executesql @dropcommand
Isn't this a problem?

Shay or other knowledgeable folks,
Is there a way to utilize the wizard for "Business Tier > ADF Business Components > Business Components from Tables" for SQL Server 2000, 2005 or 2008. I can successfully execute sql via java programmatically or import a table from SQL Server with "Business Tier > ADF Business Components > Entity Object" wizard, but the Business Components from Tables simply doesn't see any tables under any schema. Without the "Business Components from Tables", i don't get the referential constraints imported into the application and to code all those from scratch is just not as elegant. So far i have only utilized the sql server jdbc driver from Microsoft (versions, 1.1, 1.2 and 2.0). Is there an alternative client that i need to use to enable selecting tables from that "Business Components from Tables" wizard. Is this a limitation of SQL Server, the jdbc driver or the wizard itself? Did anybody else experience the same issues? I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.0.1 against SQL Server 2005 (currently)
Thanks,
Andy

HOM: MS SQL Server 2000 - MS SQL Server 2005 [sp sap_use_var_MAX]

Hi guys,
Procedure
Homogeneous System Copy on SQL Server
Source Platform
Windows 2003 Server x86
SQL Server 2000 SP4
SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_BIN2
SAP R/3 4.7 x200
SAP Kernel 6.40 Patch 347 x86 (Sep 10 2010)
SAP_BASIS 620 Patch 69
Target Platform
Windows 2008 Server x64
SQL Server 2005 SP3
SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_BIN2
SAP R/3 4.7 x200
SAP Kernel 6.40 Patch 347 x64 (Sep 10 2010)
SAP_BASIS 620 Patch 69
Symptom
When running STM (SAP Tools for SQL Server) on the target server I get the following error:
- Errors when executing sql command: (Microsoft)(ODBC SQL Server Driver)(SQL Server)Could not find stored procedure u2018sap_use_var_MAXu2019.
Further Analysis
I'm able to start the SAP system.
Tx SICK returns the following:
- Wrong long datatypes. Perform SQL Server after upgrade steps. Please see note 126973
Troubleshooting
Note 126973 - SICK messages with MS SQL Server
Solution:
Proceed as described in Note 1291861
Note 1291861 - SICK message: Wrong long datatypes
2. If the problem occurred following a system copy from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005 or later then execute the following statements:
setuser 'sid'
exec sap_use_var_MAX
Where 'sid' is the SAPSID of your system in lower case.
setuser 'dev'
exec sap_use_var_MAX
Msg 2812, Level 16, State 62, Line 2
Could not find stored procedure 'sap_use_var_MAX'.
Request
I'm thinking if any one of you is able to access an SAP system on SQL Server (2005 or other) with the above mentioned stored procedure present you could scipt it to a txt file and post it here in order for me to create it manually on my system.
I've checked several SAP Notes on this subject and none of them explains how to create this store procedure from scratch, they all just assume it's already there and tell you to execute it.
Thank you.
Bruno Pereira

I was able to solve this issue just now the following way:
- A friend of mine scripted it to a file which I then used to create the sap_use_var_MAX on the target database.
Here is a copy of that file:
USE [<SID>]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
create proc [<sid>].[sap_use_var_MAX] as
begin
declare @tabname sysname
declare @colname sysname
declare @datatype sysname
declare @nullflag nvarchar(1)
declare @cmd nvarchar(1024)
declare @n_altered int
declare c cursor for
    select t.TABLE_NAME,c.COLUMN_NAME,c.DATA_TYPE,
              nullflag = substring(c.IS_NULLABLE,1,1)
      from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS c,
           INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES t
      where c.TABLE_NAME = t.TABLE_NAME AND
            c.TABLE_SCHEMA = t.TABLE_SCHEMA AND
            t.TABLE_TYPE like '%TABLE%' AND
            c.TABLE_SCHEMA = schema_name() AND
            c.DATA_TYPE IN ('text','ntext','image')
      order by t.TABLE_NAME,c.COLUMN_NAME
open c
set @n_altered = 0
fetch next from c into @tabname,@colname,@datatype,@nullflag
while (@@fetch_status <> -1)
begin
    if (@@fetch_status <> -2)
    begin
      set @cmd = N'alter table [' + @tabname +
                  N'] alter column [' + @colname +
                  N'] '
      if @datatype = N'text'
        set @cmd = @cmd + N'varchar(MAX)'
      else if @datatype = N'ntext'
        set @cmd = @cmd + N'nvarchar(MAX)'
      else
        set @cmd = @cmd + N'varbinary(MAX)'
      if @nullflag = N'N'
          set @cmd = @cmd + ' NOT NULL'
      else
          set @cmd = @cmd + ' NULL'
      -- print @cmd
      exec( @cmd )
      set @n_altered = @n_altered + 1
    end
    fetch next from c into @tabname,@colname,@datatype,@nullflag
end
close c
deallocate c
select convert(varchar,@n_altered) + N' columns were altered'
end -- sap_use_var_MAX
Mind you, you'll have to change <SID> and <sid> acoordingly, considering also if your db is dbo schema or sid schema owned!
Thank you for your help nonetheless!

Sql server 2000 vs. 2005

This is probably a stupid question... A client of mine is
going to upgrade from MS Access to sql server. If he decides to use
sql server 2005, can I still work with it even though I only have
sql server 2000? Are there any major differences between the two
applications that would affect me being able to work with the 2005
database on the server if I don't have the most recent version
installed locally? I hope I'm making sense :)

You will need the 2005 version

MS SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 4 upgrade

Hi,
I need to upgrade my actual SAP DataBase SQL Server 2000 from Service Pack 2 to Service Pack 4 in order to be more secure as a MS consultant is requesting, but following the comments on the SAP note 1026116 attached file, which references this MS article:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/B/D/1BDF5B78-584E-4DE0-B36F-C44E06B0D2A3/ReadmeSql2k32sp4.htm
Referenced Text:
"If your instance of SQL Server 2000 is being used by an application, first check with the provider of the application whether there are any SQL Server 2000 upgrade considerations specific to that application. "
So following this instructions is there any SQL Server 2000 upgrade to Service Pack 4 considerations for a SAP Database of an ERP R3 ECC 6.0.
Could anyone can help me please with this question?
Best Regards,
Erik Espinosa

Hi,
Service Pack 4 is supported and recommended for SAP ERP ECC 6.0. There are currently no known issues with upgrading to this service pack. The mentioned collation change don't have to be performed as long as you are not planning to upgrade to SQL Server 2005.
Best regards

Unable to install SQL server 2000 and 2005 on Satellite A205-s5831

Hello everyone.
I Needs some helps from all of you.
I have Toshiba Laptop Satellite A205-S5831.
Its Have Windows Vista Home Premium.
And I am unable to install SQL server 2000 and 2005.
I also Unable to Install Windows XP SP2.
Problem is SATA driver.
Plz Help me ...!
Response me

Hi
The Windows XP needs a SATA driver if you want to install it on the notebook with SATA HDD controller.
The SATA driver can be found in the Intel Storage Manager.
I would recommend using the nLite program to include a SATA driver into the new Windows XP CD and then to boot from the new created XP CD.
Here you will find all details regarding the nLite:
http://www.nliteos.com/
Regarding SQL server issue;
Maybe you will be able to install in on Windows XP. Possibly there is a compatibility issue between the Vista and the SQL server software
