USE a SQL Alias when configuring SSRS wizard.

I am using SSRS 2008 R2.
on my SSRS machine. I went and created the SQL Alias (both for 32 bit and the other one)
Then I ran the SSRS configuration wizard and tried to configure teh SSRS service to create a report server database by using a SQL Alias.
it connects to the DB fine but at the last step it gives an error saying no such host.
Has anyone been able to configure SSRS Service when they used an alias for the sql server?
val it: unit=()

Hi,
I have created a report server database using a SQL Server Account, and everything goes well. Generally, the error message “No such host is known” indicates the target server is not available or refusing the connection. First, ensure the target database
server is configured to use the “SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode”.
From your description, on the “Database Server” tab of the “Report Server Database Configuration Wizard”, it connects to the database server successfully after typing the SQL Server Account credentials. Right?
If so, please ensure to select “SQL Server Credentials” on the “Credentials” tab.
If not, please input the SQL Server account credentials on the “Database Server” tab, and test the connection.
If the issue persists, please post the error details as well as the related error message in the Reporting Services Log file.

[SCOM 2012] - SQL Alias supported ?

Hi everyone,
simple (??) question: is the use of SQL Alias for OpsMgrDB and Data Warehouse supported with SCOM 2012 ???
Regards,
P. Augras

Stefan,
Is there anything special that needs to be done for using a SQL Alias? I am able to configure the Operations Manager setup going directly to the database, but it doesn't seem to work when I use an alias? Any suggestions?
Thanks,

'No such host is known' error when configuring Reporting database

Hi,
We are joining two report server databases using reporting services config manager. The problem is when we are trying to connect database on another machine we are receiving following error at step 'generating Rights script'
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No such host is known
at System.Net.Dns.GetAddrInfo(String name)
at System.Net.Dns.InternalGetHostByName(String hostName, Boolean includeIPv6)

at ReportServicesConfigUI.RSDatabase.IsLocalDbServer(String dbServer)
at ReportServicesConfigUI.RSDatabase.GrantRSConnectionRights()

As per step mentioned in following link,
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sameersurve/archive/2009/06/15/no-such-host-is-known-error-when-configuring-ssrs-2008.aspx
We tried opening port 1434 for the Reportserver db machine. but it didnt worked for me.
Following are points i feel could be the reason of failure,
1. The two machine we are working on are in different domains.
2. The Product version of the two reporting servers are different.
Have anyone experienced this if yes any solution that i can try?

Hi Shrikant_k,
If we are using a remote database server for the report server database, we should refer to the following tips:
Enable remote connections. And we should also open your firewall software and open the port that SQL Server listens on. For the default instance, this is typically port 1433 for TCP/IP connections. To verify that the instance accepts remote connections,
please refer to the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157300(v=sql.105).aspx
When you enable remote connections, the client and server protocols will also be enabled. To verify the protocols are enabled, please see:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191294(v=sql.105).aspx
When the database server is in a different domain or we are using workgroup security, we must configure the connection to use a SQL Server database login. In this way, we must update the report server database connection every time we change the password
or the account.
When creating a report server database, be aware that not all editions of SQL Server can be used to host the database. The following document is for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157285(v=sql.105).aspx
Reference:
Configuring a Report Server Database Connection
Hope this helps.

Error using Extended SQL Function substr

I want to be able to look for the first three letters of a month in the XML and if found replace the 3 letter month (for example SEP-05 to September 05). I have tried the following which throw a namespace exception. Please let me know what I may be doing wrong?

2. For the year, I would use another form field and do something like this next to the month above: <?xdofx:substr(../fsg:ColContext[2]/fsg:ColHeadLine2,5,2)?> for a result of '05'

Hasan
XSL has many native string manipulation functions so you do not need to use our SQL functions when a native XSL one will do:
<?if:substring(normalize-space(../fsg:ColContext[2]/fsg:ColHeadLine2),1,3)='SEP'?>September<?end if?>
See that dang normalize space function again ... had to use it on my FSG sample.
Would it not be easier to either:
1. Have the FSG generate the September YYYY format or
2. Have FSG generate XSD date formats, 'YYYY-MM-DD', then you can just specify the date format in the form fields

Sending mail using IOS and alias

I have an ipad and iphone that uses my name alias when I send mail "from" my devices and then my wife has an ipad and iphone that I would like for her to use her alias when she sends emails from her devices. Currently even though I have both alias active to use with mail, when I select my alias on my devices it automatically uses that alias on my wife's devices. She has to manually change the "from" address to her alias. Is there a way to designate her alias as the "from" address on her device and I can use my alias in the "from" on my devices? This is not a problem on my laptop using Maverick.

No visibility of local SQL Server instance when configuring ODBC data source

I am setting up an app. requiring ODBC access to a SQL Server DB using a Windows Server 2008 R2 OS on a VM, with a local SQL Server 2014 instance. When configuring either a new user or system ODBC DSN, using the ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server
(version 2014.120.2008.08), the dropdown list of servers is empty. How do I get it to see the local SQL Server instance?

For the local default instance, just enter "." or "(local)" for the server name. For a named instance, the SQL Server Browser service needs to be running to enumerate the named instances automatically but you can still type the
instance name.

Not using MSDTC in SQL Cluster when using SSIS

I have an SSIS package that reads data from Oracle and inserts it into SQL Server.
The SQL Server is clustered (node1, node2) but it doesn't have MSDTC. The package runs fine without problems.
I have read that if you are using SSIS package then MSDTC is a must when configuring SQL Server cluster. But I am not using it and still package is working fine so I wanted to ask what's the use of MSDTC? How is my package working without it?

Please refer below link and determine if you need it. If you are using distributed transaction in SSIS package you will require it.
Do i need to configure MSDTC

Getting core dump when using EXEC SQL CLOSE

In my pro*c program , i have used a cursor to fetch the set of accounts.Once cursor is opened , code will perform set
of operation using fetched data and then cursor is closed. Between open and closing of cursor , i have used 23 EXEC
SQL CLOSE. For example i am copying the value of a to b using strlcpy between fetch and close cursor statement.If
returned value from strlcpy is greater than size of destination variable, then flow should not proceed , in that case I will
close the cursor using EXEC SQL CLOSE and return the flow to calling program. Similarly i have closed the cursor at
another 22 locations.
When i compile the code and run binary the core dump occurs. On analyzing the core it shows
t@null (l@8) terminated by signal SEGV (no mapping at the fault address)
0xffffffffffffffff: <bad address 0xffffffffffffffff>
dbx: core file read error: address 0xfc4ffe48 not in data space
Current function is dbMtBaseClass::Pswd_Change
7860 sqlcxt(&_dbMtCtx, &sqlctx, &sqlstm, &sqlfpn);
if I remove any of the three EXEC SQL CLOSE commands , core dump does not occurs.
It looks strange.Please help me to resolve the issue.

Performance of AQ when using callback procedure (using PL/SQL notification)

I am enqueueing XMLType in AQ.XML file is large in size.NOw I want to dequeue the AQ using PL/SQL notification(using callback procedure which will call DBMS_AQ.DEQUEUE to dequeue the AQ and process the XML.After fetching the data from XML ,I want to store these data in another table columns).
Please suggest,In this case which approach would be better to dequeue the AQ table :
1.PL/SQL notification(using callback procedure)
OR
2.Scheduling the call to DBMS_AQ.DEQUEUE to dequeue the AQ table
What would be the impact on performance of above two approaches?

Hi,
The question of performance is not down to the technique one employes to enqueue/dequeue, but at a basic level, is relative to the number of messages!
The is what the Oracle documentation states:
>
When persistent messages are enqueued, they are stored in database tables. The performance characteristics of queue operations on persistent messages are similar to underlying database operations. The code path of an enqueue operation is comparable to SELECT and INSERT into a multicolumn queue table with three index-organized tables. The code path of a dequeue operation is comparable to SELECT, DELETE, and UPDATE operations on similar tables.
>
So, if anything, the dequeue is a fraction more time & resource consuming. However, it is only a "fraction". You could always add multiple subscribers to dequeue if you want!
You could ofcourse choose to have non-persistent messages if your application does not need the kind of fault-tolerance that persistent messaging offers, which speed things up, but only a bit, so don't get too excited about it!
There are other things to consider however, which you may wish to read up on before getting bogged down on whether you should use notification or the scheduler:
- Is your system clustered?
- Concurrency on a single queue (i.e. multiple enqueues/dequeues, but single queue)
- Propogation latency issues
Read about these and much more at:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14257/perform.htm
Finally, whether you pl/sql notification or not and whether you use dbms_scheduler is down to your application requirements!

4.1EA2 User-Defined-Report strips CRLF when using PL/SQL DBMS Output

Hi,
I have a report with a child report.
That child report uses pl/sql to print to the screen. (dbms output)
When i use the procedure manually it prints fine.
When i copy this output to a text editor i can see the CRLF in there.
If i call the same procedure tru the reports section of SQLDeveloper the output is stripped of any CRLF characters.
This is causing it to be useless for me: i am using it to generate code and it all appears as one big line on the screen.
Copying this to a text editor indeed shows all CRLFs gone.
Is this intentional or a bug ?

Jeff,
Thnx for the answer.
I don't have a problem writing html in my code being a former webdeveloper with experience in apex as well.
The problem is that the option presents itself as a standard plsql dbmsoutput, which suggests identical output as a dbmsoutput pane in sqldeveloper.
From your answer i gather it really is supposed to do html formatting.
Your "solution" of inserting br tags would be fine if it weren't for the fact that when i do a copy of the output in this report pane sqldeveloper strips away the br tags but doesn't replace them with crlf's.
And since the crlfs that were in the output are also stripped in this result pane i get a single line of text when i copy over a page of text from the result pane into a normal texteditor.
As such it behaves differently then say a browser when i copy a page of text from the browser and paste it in a text editor. There i see the crlfs that were present in the original source.
Is there a listing somewhere that explains what tags are supported?
Or CSS ?
Does it support stuff like white-space: pre ?
I understand the usefullness of a html-aware plsql dbmsoutput output option in the reports list of a user-defined report.
However i would like to use this opportunity to advocate to include , as an extra option or tick box etc., an option to just display the output as the normal dbmsoutput pane displays it.
That is without extra formatting.
I like the idea of being able to click in the table section above and to have bottom pane generate the appropriate code as output.
That use-case can not happen right now since it formats as html (and not even the correct way) or, when going along with this route, strips everything to a single line of text when copying the data from the result pane.

ODP bug with generated SQL script when using DateTime

With EF5, I'm getting some really weird SQL scripts when dealing with DateTime.
THe follow script works fine.
var a = db.MOTOR_POOL_RESERVATION
.Where(o => o.DEPART_DT > new DateTime(2013, 1, 1))
.Select(o => o.RESERVATION_ID)
.ToList();
SELECT "Extent1"."RESERVATION_ID" AS "RESERVATION_ID"
FROM "MOTORPOOL"."MOTOR_POOL_RESERVATION" "Extent1"
WHERE ("Extent1"."DEPART_DT" > TO_TIMESTAMP('2013-01-01 00:00:00.000', 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS.FF'))
But as soon as I create DateTime with year, month or day values forming from a variable, then generated scripts become incorrect.
var year = 2013;
var month = 3;
var dt = new DateTime(year, month, 1);
var c = db.MOTOR_POOL_RESERVATION
.Where(o => o.DEPART_DT > dt)
.Select(o=>o.RESERVATION_ID)
.ToList();
see the date is treated a string.
SELECT "Extent1"."RESERVATION_ID" AS "RESERVATION_ID"
FROM "MOTORPOOL"."MOTOR_POOL_RESERVATION" "Extent1"
WHERE ("Extent1"."DEPART_DT" > '2013-03-01 00:00:00')
var b = db.MOTOR_POOL_RESERVATION
.Where(o => o.DEPART_DT > new DateTime(year, month, 1))
.Select(o => o.RESERVATION_ID)
.ToList();
same problem with this one.
SELECT "Extent1"."RESERVATION_ID" AS "RESERVATION_ID"
FROM "MOTORPOOL"."MOTOR_POOL_RESERVATION" "Extent1"
WHERE ("Extent1"."DEPART_DT" > '2013-03-01 00:00:00')

It turns out that the sql is valid since I'm using bind parameters.

Determine NIF port used by VIF when configured in a port-channel

I have recently just watched an excellent Cisco Live video on UCS performance troubleshooting which demonstrated how to trace network traffic within Cisco UCS. The speaker made a comment though, in order to determine which NIF is used by a VIF when port-channels are used between the FEX and FI there are different commands to run. Have to review the hash result or something he said. Unfortunately he never went into what these commands were.
So when we have veths pinned to port-channels instead of HIFs and NIFs, what commands will show which path is being used?
