SQL Server plug-in Missing Properties : [provided_sql_server_name]

I've recently deployed SQL Server plug-in 3.2.3.1.0 and am having difficulty with the final error I'm receiving. I have been through the troubleshooting guide and am finding no errors with the WMI setup, etc. When I test connection, I get
Missing Properties : [provided_sql_server_name]
SQL Server 2000 - SP4
Windows 2003 SP1 - Standard Edition.
I have set up a separate SQL Server user with sysadmin role, and I can see that it is logging in to the default instance just fine (no named instances on the server).
Anyone have any pointers?

Warning
Failed to contact the target to be added. Following errors were received while testing the connection to the target. Update the properties accordingly, try Test Connection for testing the properties before saving.
Response - Missing Properties : [provided_sql_server_name]

JDBC Driver: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
Database Username: filled in with valid username
Password for Database User: Filled in with valid password.
Again, this is a 'default instance' on a Windows 2000 server.

Ive read about the code and it says add the Microsoft namespace to WMI but then it says it only applies to SQL Server 2000.
These are my jdbc settigs:
jdbc url: jdbc:sqlserver://<servername>:1433
jdbc driver: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
History:
i was getting other errors before regarding wrong version of SQL Server installed so i downloaded the JDBC 3.0 drivers and copied the 2 files:
sqljdbc.jar and sqljdbcr4.jar
to <oracle_agent_home>\sysman\admin\scripts\emx\microsoft_sqlserver_database
after this i got the current problems
I think it may be a permissions problem with WMI or something connected around it.

Please review the installation documentation at:

You will see that the sqljdbc_auth.dll needs to be copied only if you are using Windows Integrated Authentication on a 64 bit OS:
For the plug-in to establish connection to SQL Server instance using Windows Integrated Authentication mode, when deployed on a 64-bit (X64 or IA64) copy of Enterprise Manager Agent running on 64-bit Windows operating system, do the following:
Depending on the JVM version, copy the respective version of sqljdbc_auth.dll to the folder $AgentHome\sysman\jdbcdriver. If the directory does not exist, create it. The file sqljdbc_auth.dll is available as part of Type 4 Microsoft SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver version 1.2 (after unzipping, you will find three files with same name, that is, auth\x86\sqljdbc_auth.dll, auth\x64\sqljdbc_auth.dll, and auth\ia64\sqljdbc_auth.dll)
o
For X64 version of Enterprise Manager Agent installed on X64 (Xeon or AMD) Windows systems, copy the file auth\x64\sqljdbc_auth.dll to $AgentHome\sysman\jdbcdriver (the dll file should be copied directly under the folder specified. No sub-directories should be created.)
o
For IA64 version of Enterprise Manager Agent installed on IA64 Windows systems, copy the file auth\ia64\sqljdbc_auth.dll to $AgentHome\sysman\jdbcdriver
Note:
· No manual step needs to be performed when the plug-in is deployed on 32-bit copy of Enterprise Manager Agent (running on 32-bit or 64-bit Windows).

SQL Server Plug-in

I have installed the following software on windows 2000 server.
Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Release 1 (10.1.0.3) for Windows
Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Management Agent (10.2.0.1) for windows
I am not able to configure Management Plug-ins for SQL Server 2000 in the 10g Grid Control Release 1 (10.1.0.3) since the Management Plug-ins link is not visible on the grid control setup option as explained below in Oracle Enterprise Manager System Monitoring Plug-in Installation Guide for Microsoft SQL Server
10g Release 2 (10.2)
-- Installation guide instructions--
Deploying the Plug-in
After you ensure that the prerequisites are met, follow these steps to deploy the plug-in:
Download the SQL Server Plug-in archive to your desktop or computer on which the browser is launched. You can download the archive from the Oracle Technology Network (OTN).
Log into Enterprise Manager Grid Control as a Super Administrator.
Click the Setup link in the upper right corner of the Grid Control Home page, then click the Management Plug-ins link on the left side of the Setup page.
Click Import.
Thanks in advance

SQL Server Plug-in reports inaccurate Database Space information

I'm trying to track down some inaccuracies I'm seeing in the SQL Server Plug-in for Grid Control. Every database I have on my Database Instance has a Critical alert regarding the Space Available %. For my example, we'll take the 'master' database. it is showing as .81% Space available. My guess is that the plug-in uses the sp_spaceused procedure to get the information. When I run that, I get the following:
database_name: master
database_size: 72.00 MB (This is the size of the database file and the transaction log, 64M + 8M)
unallocated space: 61.34 MB
reserved: 2728 KB
data: 1072 KB
index_size: 1056 KB
unused: 600 KB (Total amount of space reserved for objname but no yet used.)
If you take 600 KB/72MB , you get the .081% available. However, that is not accurate. (I've verified both numbers in the OMS mgmt$metric_hourly view).
I don't think the plug-in's use of the unused value is correct. This is space allocated to objects in the database, but available. I wonder if this metric should be looking at the unallocated_space/database_size rather than the unused piece. This would show this database to have 85.2% available space.
The flaw I see in sp_spaceused is that it is taking into account the database and transaction log as a single unit. Rather than separate entities.

This is erroneous behaviour by the SQL Server plug-in. Please refer to bug 7186134. The bug is planned to be addressed with the newer version of plug-in to be released as part of Plug-in Release Cycle 9 (due for RTM in Dec. '08)

SQL Server plug in licence???

Hi,
Do you need a licence to deploy the SQL Server plug in for grid?
Ive looked in the Oracle price list http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/technology-price-list.pdf (is this the price list for 10g or 11g?) and wondered if it was either
System plug-in for Non Oracle databases
Managent pack for non oracle middleware
If one of these are the correct ones then at what point do you have to licence? can you just have the agent deployed to monitor the server?
Licencing is so confusing

Hi,
We have the same problem to evaluate the cost for Grid Control implementation.
For System Monitoring Plug-in for Non Oracle Databases, we have to pay USD 1,800 + 396.00 Support Per Processor.
Do we have to take account of Grid Control server processors or all SQL server processors ?
The problem is the same for "System Monitoring Plug-Ins for Non-Oracle Middleware"
Thanks

OEM 12c : Deployed MS SQL Server Plug-in. Getting Error When Adding Target Manually

Hi All,
Request your help regards to Working with Plug-ins.
I am using a Oracle linux 5.9 VM with OEM 12c v12.1.0.3.0 Installed.
I need to work with Non-Oracle Database - specifically MS SQL Server for which I already downloaded and deployed the MS SQL Server Plug-in.
However when trying to add targets manually, I am getting an error saying "Target Type Microsoft SQL Server is not support on selected monitoring agents em12c.localdomain:3872:Plug-in Microsoft SQL Server Database (12.1.0.3.0) or higher is certified on Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12.1.0.3.0.
Can you please guide as to where am i going wrong?
Your help and guidance is highly appreciated.
Regards.
Nayan

Hi Nayan,
This seems to be a issue that a different version of MS SQL plugin was deployed on the Agent side.
As per your description you have already downloaded and deployed the MS SQL Server Plug-in. I am assuming that the version of plugin is 12.1.0.3.
If not you will need to deploy 12.1.0.3 MS SQL plugin on OMS first and then on the Agent which is monitoring the MS SQL targets.
+ Command to get the plugins deployed On OMS server currently,
$ cd <OMS_HOME>/bin/
$ ./emcli login -username=sysman
Enter password
Login successful
$ ./emcli sync
Synchronized successfully
$./emcli list_plugins_on_server
+ Command to get the plugins deployed On Agent currently,
$ cd <AGENT_HOME>/agent_inst/bin/
$ ./emctl listplugins agent
Ref: EM 12c: How to Verify the Plugins Deployed on the Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12.1.0.1 OMS and Agent (Doc ID 1431103.1)
You can review the below link for MS SQL plugin deploy on OMS and Agent,
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/install.121/e35211/toc.htm
Once the 12.1.0.3.0 MS SQL plugin is deployed on OMS and on Agent try to dicover the targets again from console. I hope it will help.

Support for Windows Authentication in SQL Server Plug-in

I can't find anything in the documentation, or maybe my eyes are subconsciously skipping over the section. Does the 3.2.3.1.0 SQL Server plug-in support Windows Authentication? We have stopped using Mixed-Mode in our SQL Server 2005 Databases.

Not as such, but you can always manage them through worksheet statements.
You can request this at the SQL Developer Exchange though, so other users can vote and add weight for possible future implementation.

SQL Server wants to open properties of wrong database and cannot restore logs of different databases at the same time

We have implemented our own way of logshipping by backing up the transaction logs of all our non-system databases every hour. Then we transfer the backups (before SQL Server 2008 R2 with additional zip and unzip steps) to the second environment where we
restore them only during the night on databases in standby-state (Like this, our developers can access the databases without disturbing the productive system and we can restore the t-logs during night, so not shutting out the developers during the day).
Now since we replaced our hardware in the productive environment, we replaced the hardware in the second environment with the servers from previous productive environment. Same SQL Server 2008 R2, same Service Pack (SP2), same installation procedure. But
since then the SQL Server in the second environment behaves different:
- When the logs of some database "A" are restored, I cannot access the properties of any database, i.e. database "B", I only get the error message "Cannot show requested dialog. (SqlMgmt) Database 'A' cannot be opened. It is in the
middle of a restore. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 927)"
- Our logshipping runs multiple instance at the same time, so restoring multiple databases' logs. But since the change, two of the instances fail restoring of datatbases, i.e. "B" and "C" with the error message "Database 'A' cannot
be opened. It is in the middle of a restore.". The jobs guarantee to restore only logs of the database they need to restore, they have strictly separated sets of target databases and only try to restore the databases of their sets.
Before the new installations, we did not have these strange behaviours. But as said, it is the same SQL Server version, the same service pack, and we followed the same installation document but maybe with the small changes in settings. The user the jobs
are running under is a domain admin, the login they use has dbcreator, processadmin, db_owner and db_backupoperator roles. My login on the SQL Server has sysadmin rights and as described similar problems.
Is this problem known or does somebody have an idea where to go looking for?
Thanks, Chris

Hi Christar,
According to your description, after you configuring Log shipping between two database, you remove the hardware from production environment to dev environment, in this hardware, there are saved the transaction logs of your database.
When restoring your database, there will occurs error 927, right?
SQL Server Log shipping allows you to automatically send transaction log backups from a
primary database on a primary server instance to one or more
secondary databases on separate secondary server instances. It consists of three operations:
1.Back up the transaction log at the primary server instance.
2.Copy the transaction log file to the secondary server instance.
3.Restore the log backup on the secondary server instance.
Since you want to move your hardware avoiding copy job, we need to verify if .mdf and .ldf file are not saved in your hardware, or else,
if you move your hardware, you could not open your database in your Primary Server. I recommend you can refer to the following steps.
Full back up your primary database and restore it into the secondary database. It would have been set up as WITH STANDBY ,the databases would read StandBy/ Read Only.
Perform transaction log backups via a SQL Server Agent job running on the primary server instance, save them in your hardware.
In night, you move hardware to your dev environment, you can manually restore these transaction log backups or set up a SQL Server Agent job to restoring them from your hardware.
There is detail about how to configure log shipping in SQL Server 2008R2 step by step, you can review it.

SQL Server Plug-In - General Questions

Hi,
1. Does this plug-in identify and provide resolution for poorly performing SQL like the the Diagnostics/Tuning Pack for Oracle DB?
2. Does it track changes to Stored Procedures and collect it into the OMS as part of Configuration management?
Thanks!

Please go through the metric reference guide for SQL Server:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/em.102/b28748/toc.htm
This will help you get an idea of all the metrics that this plug-in monitors

DM 3.1.1 with SQL Server 2008 . Extended Properties not imported .

Hi
I am using Data Modeler 3.1.1 with SQL Server 2008.
I have a database where I have Extended Properties (MS_Description) for the tables and columns.
I use the Import Data Dictionary option (database type SQL 2005) , and the extended properties are not being imported to the model.
Is there anything else that I should do to have the descriptions imported?
Regards,
Jorge

Hi Fernando
That is what I need to do.
Create a Model from an existing SQL Server database with the Import data Dictionary option , be able to modify tables structures, extended properties in the model, and then sync those changes with the database.
So far I can't import the extended properties with DM 3.1.1. If you find a way , please let me know.
Thanks,
Jorge

SQL Server 2014 Express, missing Data Type

My problem is a simple one. When I create a new column and give it a Data Type, my options do not inlcude the "time" type. I found the documentation about available data types, and time is listed as one for SQL 2014. My desire is to have a data
type that fits the HH:MM:SS format, excluding the date part that datetime offers. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

I did what you suggested, got this error:
Msg 2715, Level 16, Sate 6, Line 1
Column, parameter, or variable #6: Cannot find data type TIME.
ALTER TABLE dbo.DataSchedule
ALTER COLUMN StartClock TIME

Not sure if you got the plug-in working. If not, read on...
The error is due to failure in internal computation of the SQL Server Host related information.
Ensure that
1. All pre-requisites (specified in SQL Server plug-in Installation Guide) are satisfied
2. Provided property values for discovery of the SQL Server target are correct
- JDBC URL has correct port number
- If you are using older version of SQL Server plug-in, the name of SQL Server
instance that you provided is correct
