Linked servers and ODBC/SQR

I am attempting to write an SQR (it will run from PeopleSoft) that updates a linked server.  It fails with the following error:

 

(SQR 5528) ODBC SQL dbexec: SQLExecute error 7412 in cursor 2:
   [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "DUL41" returned message "No transaction is active.".
(SQR 5528) ODBC SQL dbexec: SQLExecute error 7391 in cursor 2:
   [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "DUL41" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.

Error on line 58:
   (SQR 3735) Could not execute SQL.

SQR for PeopleSoft: Program Aborting.

--------------------  Details ------------------------------

 

- The code is simply doing a delete right now.   delete from linkedserver.db.dbo.table where column = 1

- The SQL runs fine from Query Analyzer, so I think MSDTC must be setup correctly everywhere, and the linked servers must be defined correctly.  My QA test is using the same ID (sa) as my SQR.

- If I just write a select statement in the SQR, it works fine.

- in this example, SQR is connecting via ODBC, using SQL Native Client driver.

 

------------------  Environment --------------------------

 

- Main server:  Win2003, SQL2005sp2, active/passive cluster.  MSDTC is setup on the cluster.

- Linked server:  Win2003, SQL2000sp4, not a cluster.   (I also tried a SQL2005 server just to test)  This is the DUL41 server referenced in the error message.  MSDTC is running.

- Everything is running from a different Win2003 box, that connects to the main server using ODBC/SQL Native client

 

Thanks for any help or ideas.  Even any way to get better error messages, or a better way to test this.

timeout - how to find problem query

Hi all.

We are experiencing issues with a web application, in the log files for the application we see for example this error message:

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): The wait operation timed out

I've read about this and similar and figured out we need to check out the query causing this, we get the issue at peak hours when all users log in.

What is the most easy way to find the query, so I can start tuning it?

Im working as a dba, but I have good communication with the application developers.

hi all,

 in my sp i have 2 parameters:

1-->crownnumber nvarchar(10)

2--->noofcrowns int

in report side, if crownnumber parameter value we take as 2 ,and no.ofcrowns as 3

each crown per page so, starting from crownnumber '2' since we gave parameter value as 2 ..it should give 3 pages result as 2,3,4(since no.ofcrowns are 3).

trc File Permissions Getting Stripped When Creating A Trace via SQL Server Agent

April 4, 2016, 7:27 am

Hello Forum

Over the last few weeks I have been running some Traces on A Server.  On Friday 02-Apr we had to move the location to a Network share as the trace files were filling up the Drive.  The trc files have been created and populated in the Network Share but the permissions have been stripped; there appears to be no owner for the files.  The Domain Administrator can of course re-introduce the permissions but we are struggling to get it working as it should.

Our initial thoughts are of course AD permissions.  Note that both myself and the Domain Administrator have the required permissions on the file share: -

  • We can both create, edit and delete documents
  • We both have sys admin rights within the SQL Server Instance
  • We have set the Job to run as myself, the DA and as sa.  The Trace File is being created but without any permissions.

Has anyone seen this sort of behaviour before?

SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 is in use.

I'm using SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio) 2014 and trying to connect to an AWS instance which has SQL Server Express running. OS is Windows Server 2012 R2. All updates have been applied.

What I've done:

  • Opened ports 1433, 1148 in AWS Security Group (firewall opened on inbound ports also on server)
  • Enabled client protocols (TCP/IP, Named Pipes, Shared Memory) on server
  • Remote server access enabled for database (server -> properties)
  • SQL Server Browser enabled (server service)
  • Public/Elastic IP assigned (ping works fine)
  • Able to log into database on server just fine

The error I'm receiving:

  • Cannot connect to MYIPADDRESS\SERVERNAME,1148
  • The wait operation timed out

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have AlwaysOn configured in SQL Server 2014 and enabled Filestream in both nodes (node 1 and node2) as shown here:

Enable and Configure FILESTREAM (MSDN Library)

I have named the shared folder name "MYSHAREDSQLFILES".

I can access the folder using below path whenever node 1 is Primary

\\**node1**\MYSHAREDSQLFILES

But I want to access it using listener name, because user will not know which one is PRIMARY node. what is the best practise.

I have gone through the prerequisites but still it does not work MSDN

Query on SQL server Datetime

Hi All,
we have few tables that are already partitioned based on date column like 2014, 2015,2016,2017, etc. and we are using this date column in our SQL queries (in where condition as inuput parameter/or declared variable).

Now we have to add one more condition (input variable) in our queries that is time. I want to know from SQL Server experts, is there any modifications required on below partition function to use time value.

NOTE: after implementing table partition on date column we are able to see good performance

Our query:
declare @FromDate datetime
declare @ToDate datetime
/*Today we have modified query with below variables*/
declare @FromTime time 
declare @ToTime time

set @Fromdate='2015-01-01'
set @Todate='2016-01-01'
set @FromTime='00:00'
set @ToTime='07:30'

select a.col1,b.col1
from tab a join tab b on a.id=b.id
where a.[date] >= Convert(VARCHAR(24), (@FromDate) + ' ' + (@FromTime), 113)
and b.[date] <= Convert(VARCHAR(24), (@ToDate) + ' ' + (@ToTime), 113)

Existing PF definition:
CREATE PARTITION FUNCTION VisitorsPerYear(datetime)
AS
RANGE RIGHT FOR VALUES 
('2012-01-01', '2013-01-01', '2014-01-01',

SMSS New -> View very slow on first time

March 25, 2016, 10:53 am

In SMSS on our SQL Server 2014 (12.0.4213.0) there are some maddening delays when we perform one particular function. When we right-click on View and choose New -> View. It can take from 30 to 60 seconds. Interestingly enough, when the new view comes up and we close it and create a new view immediately, it's fairly fast. It's down to about 3-4 seconds then. There's something that's happening at the first attempt but not subsequent attempts.

The delays don't seem to happen on our old SQL 2008 R2 server (10.50.6220). When we click New -> View to create a new view we always have the new view dialog box (Add Table) within 2 seconds.

Our new server is a screaming Dell PE 730 filled with SSDs and the DBs themselves between 20 and 400 GB with no more than 20 users for any of these servers. Nothing else seems to tax the server. Running applications are screaming fast.

The New -> Views function seems to be the one thing. I would love some way to  I need to tune/fix this to keep the primary DB manager happy with this server.

Can I access the file stream shared folder using Listeners in case of AlwaysOn cluster environment?

April 4, 2016, 11:20 pm

One of the most effective ways to extend your SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) control flow is to use a Script task to write custom code that perform tasks you cannot perform with the built-in components.But it's not straight forward in case of AlwaysOn configured nodes

Below is my current environment setup which helps you to understand the problem.

My environment

  • I am having NODE 1 and NODE 2 as cluster configured
  • SQL Server always on and availability group configured
  • SQL Server file stream is enabled on both node 1 and node 2 entitled as MYSHAREDNAME
  • Internal load balancing Listener configured and entitled as MYACTIVENODE

Problem Statement One of the node among cluster (node 1 or node2) can be down any time. We will not sure which one will become PRIMARY. I am trying to access the shared folder as follow

\\NODE1\MYSHAREDNAME - Works if NODE 1 is primary node

\\NODE2\MYSHAREDNAME - Works if NODE 2 is primary node

But it's difficult to hard code above path as any node can go down. So I used LISTENER name so that it can automatically detect the PRIMARY node to do the desired job as shown below

So I used LISTENER name so that it can automatically detect the PRIMARY node to do the desired job as shown below

  \\MYLISTENERNAME\MYSHAREDNAME

But I am not able to access it

How can I fix it? Ports 1433, 5022, 59999 are enabled.

Extract from https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-in/library/dn385720.aspx

AlwaysOn Availability Groups are supported as long as you do not add new database files to the primary database. If a database operation requires a new file to be created in the primary database, first disable AlwaysOn Availability Groups in the secondary node. Then, perform the database operation on the primary database and backup the database in the primary node. Next, restore the database to the secondary node, and enable AlwaysOn Availability Groups in the secondary node. Note that AlwaysOn Failover Cluster Instances is not supported when using the SQL Server Data Files in Windows Azure feature

But I did not understand what does above statement means?

Implementing Transparent Data Encryption on replicated Databases

Hi All,

We have transactional replication in place for many databases in our environment. The requirement now is to implement TDE for whole database. I request you to share your thoughts and insights about considerations for TDE.

Is there any impact on replication. If i apply TDE in publisher DB will there be any impact on subscriber DB?

In our case we are going to implement it in both publisher db and suscbriber Db.

Is compressed backup possible after applying TDE?

We have SAN backups for our prod systems, anything that needs to be taken care in that front( can we expect increase in backup duration, backup size )

Thanks
