Moving single database from "slower" to "faster" SQL server and it's slower on the "faster" server

$
0
0

I have two SQL servers that are virtualized. Here are the specs:

"Slower" server:
Server 2003

MSSQL server 2005 

4GB Ram

4x Intel Xeon 2.93ghz cpus

"Faster" server:

Server 2003 64bit

MSSQL server 2005  

8GB Ram

4x Intel Xeon 2.93ghz cpus

I have a copy of a database that's running on both of them (the slow one now as a test) and when I run queries on the server that's supposed to be faster, it's quite a bit slower than the server that's supposed to be slower (by at least a 1/3rd). Any insight as to what it could be? Both servers are using the same SAN.

How to automatically create the custom migration scripts after recreating SSMA project?

There is number of tables ( big tables with BLOBS)  which I want to set up automatically to be migrated with custom migration scripts (replacing e.g. attribute named "FILE" with "TO_BLOB('') AS FILE" ).

So the question is how to open MB file (I think that it should be standard db of some destktop RDBMS) ?

SQL Server 2008 R2 Migration to SQL Server 2012 Pre - Login Handshake error.

I have 2 SQL Servers, the details are as at the below. The New SQL Server is using to host the databases of the old SQL Database server.
 
OLD SQL Server
 
Windows Server 2008 R2
SQL Server 2008 R2
AD DS Installed & Added to a Domain named 'TheKingsburycmb.com'
IP Static - 192.168.1.180
Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1
Prefered DNS - 192.168.1.180
Alternate DNS - 203.115.0.46
 
I want this server's database's data to be transferred to the new SQL Server.
 

New SQL Server
 
Windows Server 2012 Standard
SQL Server 2012 Standard
AD DS Installed & promote to the previous domain 'TheKingsburycmb.com'
IP Static - 192.168.1.181
Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1
Prefered DNS - 192.168.1.180
Alternate DNS - 203.115.0.46
 
I want this server acts as the new SQL Server with old databases of the old server.
 
So what I have done is I connected to the New SQL Server to the its SQL Management Studios'
object explorer and it was a success but when I tried to add the OLD SQL Server to the New
SQL servers' Management Studio I got an error saying that as at the below!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cannot connect to OLDSQLServerName.
 
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
 
Connection Timeout Expired. The timeout period elapsed while attempting to consume the
pre-login handshake acknowledgement. This could be because the pre-login handshake failed
or the server was unable to respond back in time. The duration spent while attempting to
connect to this server was - [Pre-Login] initialization=22100; handshake=0; (Microsoft SQL
Server, Error: -2)
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
I have enabled Named Pipes of both SQL Server Configuration Managers. But I cannot understand what is the problem that is keeping restricting the adding the OLD SQL Server to the New SQL Servers Management Studio using Object Explorer?
 
Could you someone help me to solve this matter?
 
Thanks,
Regards,

Refresh local SSMA data after procedure change in Oracle

$

Hi,

SSMA reported error on some non-migratable issues in one of the procedures. After changing the procedure in Oracle to something SSMA can handle (hopefully), I want to refresh the SSMA and issue the "Convert Schema" again.
However, when performing "Refresh from database" it announces that no changes were found and that all is identical.

How do I get the SSMA to load the new Oracle procedural code?

(In the mean-time I will open a new project just for this procedure, but this is not a good solution going forward. Still lost of such changes to handle)

Thanks,

Eran

Is there a way of dumping error messages and information message from SQL Server Migration Assistant to a text file ?  

It's kind of difficult to review in SSMA when you have a lot of issues.  I notice there's a lot of XML file in the report. Is there a way to convert these into a simple .txt file?

Hi:

I'm trying to Migrate Sybase 15.5 to SQL Server 2012.

My problem with Arabic Words,

I've tried SSMA , bcp in collated the sql server to ARABIC_CI_AS and ARABIC_100_AI_AS

but with no luck even tried to fonts in the sql reports when I made them but no luck

is there a way to change the charset in Sybase or SQL Server ? Since I found that the data itself will go as charecters no windows.

Note: When I made bcp out from sybase I let it to use windows charset and in when I displyed the output of the bcp in notpad it showed the arabic words but when I try to bcp in the SQL Server it gives me errors ether invalid data for type numeric or it gives me string data right truncation

many thanks in advance

SSMA (Access - SQL 2012) newbie question about new tables

I have successfully run SSMA and moved the back end tables of an Access project to SQL Express 2012.

Some questions:

- if I add a new table to the SQL backend, how do I get it to appear in the Access project?

- if I want to move the whole thing to another computer, how do I go about it?

- do I always have to have the SSMA app installed?

- I can't see an ODBC datasource on the machine

Thanks for some help

Oracle to SQL Server Conversion.

Hello,

I'm planning to migrate an Oracle Database to SQL Server 2012. I heard about the SMMA tool. I never did that kind of migration.

So I wanted to know if any of you have successful results with this tool or you need to do some manual extra effort in order to get it done completely from Oracle to SQL Server.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks

Data Migration from Sybase 15 with ? instead of char.

$

We are Migrating from Sybase 15 to SQL Server 2008, the Sybase server is using us_english and iso_1 and we are using SSMA to Sybase  5.2 to do the migration, the connection string we are using is this:Server=XX;Port=XX;uid=XX;pwd=XX;language=us_english;charset=iso_1;

We have columns with these chars “ ’ ”, running ascii in the Sybase server I got these values back 174,146,148, after migrating the data the chars get converted to ?.

Is there a way to get the conversion right?, the collation in the SQL server is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS, do I need to change it to another one?

Thanks.

Connect to sql server 2012 using Native Client 10.5

We are currently moving from SQL Server 2008R2 to SQL Server 2012.

For sql 2012 we started to use AG. One of our application is running on Windows Server 2003 and using natibve client 10.5

As it is WS 2003 we cannot install Native Client 11 (it is supported only begin with WS 2008)

So question is - is it possible to connect to database on SQL Server 2012 using Native Client 10.5?

p.s. as I understood I cannot use AG in connection string, but at least is it possible to connect or not?

Can Reporting Services 2005 report on SQL Server 2012 database?

$

We would like to upgrade our SQL Server from Standard 2005 to Enterprise/Standard 2012. Unfortunately, we also have a lot of reports based on Reporting Services 2005. If possible we would like avoid upgrading them at this time.

Is it possible to run Reporting Services 2005 of SQL Server 2012? If yes then is there pre-requiste  like drivers  or dll or any other to connect SSRS 2005 to SQL server 2012?  

If we run Reporting Services 2005 of SQL Server 2012  then do we will face performance lag issue due to version difference of SSRS 2005 and SQL server 2012?
