Azure VMs - Upgradeing from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014, side by side

$
0
0
Hello everyone,

We're planning to upgrade our existing setup from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014 at Azure.
The new server is up and running with SQL 2014.

Now, my job is to move all databases and SQL jobs to this new server.
Then, test command line database build and convert all existing SSIS Packages.

Once I prepare this server, the next task is to prepare 2 QA servers in a similar manner.
And finally, the production server.

Can anybody please advise what needs to be taken care to complete this job successfully?
Also, please advise how to prepare the templates or scripts, which could be reused for other servers down the line.

Likewise, please suggest how to get the maximum benefits/advantages of SQL 2014 at Azure?
Like,

Configuring SQL 2012 to use a wildcard SSL cert

$
0
0

 I'm attempting to configure SQL Server 2012 to use a wildcard SSL certificate. It's not appearing in the Certificate tab when I go to the SQL Server Config. Manager, Protocol properties. I've searched for this issue and the general suggestion is to grab the hash of the SSL cert and edit the registry and paste the hash value in the "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\NameOfServerInstance\MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNetLib\Certificate". So I've done that, making sure to remove the spaces from the hash value. I can start up SQL Server and it seems happy enough to load the certificate. However, when I attempt to connect it fails with:

A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 - The target principal name is incorrect.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -2146893022). 

This machine is not part of a domain, but I've made sure the Primary DNS Suffix of this machine matches my domain name. So the cert is issued to "*.mydomainname.com" and the Primary DNS Suffix is set to "mydomainname.com". My server name is WIN-TH7. 

Everything else about the cert. matches the criteria in the various KB articles. It just doesn't seem like the wildcard is being respected. The other articles I've found reference SQL 2008, so I'm guessing something about this changed between versions. 

Does this even work? If so, what do I need to change to get SQL to use this cert?

Thanks,

Consistency validation for SQL Server registry keys

$
0

I cannot get past this support rule when I attempt to install SQL Server 2008 RC0.  When I attempt to drill into the failure the popup states "The SQL Server registry keys from a prior installation cannot be modified.  To continue, see SQL Server Setup documentation about how to fix registry keys."

 

First off, why would the SQL Server 2008 RC0 install attempt to modify registry keys from a prior installation if I am attempting to install it side-by-side with a prior install of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition?  

 

Second, can anyone point me to the SQL Server Setup documentation that walks me through how to go about fixing these registry keys?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance for your help.

Need complete, detailed instructions on how to remove/uninstall SQL Server 2008 and R2

$
0
0

There are thousands of forum posts related to uninstalling SQL Server that provide varied information.  Most refer to the BOL articlehttp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143412.aspx, which is useless in most error situations.  Can anyone provide true, complete instructions for removing all SQL Server components from a machine?  I'm not sure why there isn't a robust MS-provided utility for this, but I'll be relieved just to have a manual method.  I understand that there will be registry hacks, security group mods, folder deletions/renames from god knows how many places, and probably a cauldron of frog legs and shaken babies.  Just please don't make me cruise these endless seas of bogus forum posts any longer.  I am thirsty and seasick.

Thank you,

Yes, I have VS 2010, which prbly caused the SQLExpress BS to hork my origh install in the first place.  I yearn for the day when VS and SQL teams kiss and make up.

Installing SQL server 2012 with 2008 R2

$

I have a test server on a VM running SQL Server 2008 R2 express. I have a development server on my local machine also 2008 R2. I recently got access to a instance of the Full Standard Version SQL 2012. My company wants me to move my data there. When I access the 2012 instance I get an error, something about my backend not being the right version. Ok fine, I have a MSDN subscription so I go out to get SQL Management Studio 2012 they have it but, I believe I will still need the 2008 R2 to connect with my test/development server. I am concerned because at one point I had 2010 on my machine and 2008 R2 on my VM and I believe there was a problem when I tried to connect a 2008 R2 database to SQL Server 2010 or visa versa. I had to install 2008 R2 on both so I could debug/develop on my local machine and allow user testing on the VM. So two questions. Can I install both MSSMS 2012 and MSSMS 2008 R2 on my local computer? Do I need to? Thanks for you time and advise.

Hi, I have been trying to Install Sql Server 2008 on my 64 bit Vista Ultimate machine.  It gets about 70% through the installation and hangs on the part that says "Install_sql_tools_Cpu64_Action: Write_NativeImage64. Generating Native Images"  I have tried for the last 3 days with no luck.  I have tried un-installing and deleting directories but no luck.  I have scene several posts about the same problem but no solutions except one guy who uninstalled every thing but SQL Server 2008 and re-installed.  I have tried that but it did not help.

SSDT-BI templates in VS 2012 are non-existant even after update with march 2014 software update.

I have tried absolutely every suggestion and update that has been posted on the net, msdn, Microsoft, etc.. I finally completely removed VS 2012 ultimate with uninstall/ force/ and did the same with SQL Server 2012 . I went step by step and reinstalled SQL Server 2012 first, updateing and rebooting between each install, then re-installed VS 2012 ultimate, and then UPDATE 4. Then installed the march 2014 SSDT-BI update, then installed the latest Sql Data tools update.

I absolutely cannot get the templates to show up in VS 2012 new project. WHAT HAVE I MISSED!!! It seems that everyone else is doing fine with the latest updates, but me.

What else can I do... I REALLY NEED to DO SSIS project in VS2012. Someone please be my angel and help me.

thanks,

Cannot create database object alert on clustered instance

Hello,

We have installed 2014 sql server on a stand alone VM and can create alerts without issue.  We recently did a cluster install of 2014, and when trying to create alerts get the following error:

Msg 14262, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_verify_performance_condition, Line 52

The specified object_name ('Databases') does not exist.

Specifically, we are trying to create a database alert on percent log used that will kick off a job to back up the log.

We are on Windows 2012R2 o/s.  In the drop downs in SSMS under alerts, we do not have all the options we have in the stand alone instance - they are not there.  Is this a bug?  Is there a CU?

How to license SQL Server Dev/Test/Staging?

$
0
0

We have a few questions about SQL Server license requirements in Dev/Testing/Staging environments, I understand we better confirm with MS but so far have not got hold of anyone of MS Rep, appreciate if someone can shed some light on this?

1. If we buy SQL Server Developer Edition license for every developer, can we install SQL Server Enterprise/Standard version for Dev/Test/Staging purpose? or we only allow to install Developer edition?

2. Does tester need to have SQL Server Developer License to do function and performance testing?

3. If we buy a few MSDN subsciption for some developers, also buy SQL Server Developer Edition license for rest of our developers.  Then can we install SQL Server Enterprise/Standard version for every developer? or can we install Developer version for every developer?

4. Is there any organization level license so we don't need to buy MSDN Subscription or Developer Edition license for every developer/tester on per user basis?
