SSMA Sybase 5.3 - data migration issue (hangs)
Trying to move only table data from Sybase 12.5 to SQL Server 2008 R2.
Using SSMA Sybase 5.3, I am able to create tables in target schema (so connectivity is fine).
However, when I click on "Migrate Data", SSMA just hangs. I have left it for hours without any data migration. Output window shows:
Migrating data...
Analyzing metadata...
Preparing table <first tablename>...
Am I missing a step?
Are there log files that can be used to debug (find the problem)?
Seems so close, yet so far away...
TIA

How to take SQL 2005/2008 backup on azure storage.
Hi
I am trying to put our SQL Databse backup on azure storage but facing below issue while run the SQL query on SQL server 2005 and 2008.
But same query is successfully run on SQL 2012.
So request you to please help us for same.
Error :-
Msg 155, Level 15, State 1, Line 17
'URL' is not a recognized Device Type option.
Msg 319, Level 15, State 1, Line 18
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table expression, an xmlnamespaces clause or a change tracking context clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.
CDC related objects problem
Hi there,
Got a problem – a database with CDC enabled was migrated onto a new server (by attaching all DB files I think).
As a result all CDC related objects were still existing in the database, but CDC was not enabled.
I could not enable CDC on the migrated database because the CDC schema already existed (from before migration).
Msg 22906, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_cdc_enable_db_internal, Line 49
The database 'xxxxx' cannot be enabled for Change Data Capture because a database user named 'cdc' or a schema named 'cdc' already exists in the current database. These objects are required exclusively by Change Data Capture. Drop or rename the user or schema and retry the operation.
So I deleted all tables, stored procs and functions from the CDC schema – well – at least I thought I did – so dropping the schema should be possible.
Msg 3729, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot drop schema 'cdc' because it is being referenced by object 'fn_cdc_get_all_changes_ ... '.
But it is not - as you see above – as in the sys.objects table there are still 4 “strange” entries and the schema can’t be deleted.
schema_name | function_name |
cdc | fn_cdc_get_all_changes_... |
cdc | fn_cdc_get_net_changes_... |
cdc | fn_cdc_get_all_changes_ ... |
cdc | fn_cdc_get_net_changes_ ... |
Those functions obviously do not exists anywhere else except sys.objects table.
So what can be done? I even tried to delete those entries from sys.objects – but it wasn’t possible:
Msg 259, Level 16, State 1, Line 6
Ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not allowed.
So the question is – what can be done to enable CDC on the migrated database again?

Could not open new database 'Auctionpatrol'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 950)
SSMA for Oracle install error: "Oracle client software not found"
During install of SSMA 4.2 for Oracle, I immediately get the error:
"Required Component Missed
Oracle client software not found.
Setup is unable to find Oracle client software. You can install it from Oracle product media... etc."
I have the following versions of Oracle client installed:
Oracle database 10g Express Edition (XE database w/client included?)
Oracle - OraClient11g_home1 (part of Oracle 11g Release 2 ODAC Oracle Data Access Components install - contains a client?)
Oracle instant client 10g.
Does SSMA require the standard client (not free), or is it supposed to work with any of the above free Oracle client versions?
I have tried pointing ORACLE_HOME to each of the 3 clients, and PATH to each bin directory, but all give the same error during SSMA install.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, -Ken

Migrating vm from ESX to HyperV.
Hi experts,
Quick questions…
Environment team will migrate from ESX to HyperV our sql VM.
We have one staging box there. I asked it to be migrated cleanly and we would do a checkdb afterwards… But they refused to do it.
Questions:
1 1- I have read that is feasible to move a vm cleanly from esx to hyperV, how difficult is that? Why did they refuse?
2- 2- Given the case I have to migrate it myself manually (installing sql and moving the dbs), whats the best approach? Backuping up dbs and then restoring them after installing sql? Or detaching and moving the datafiles? (it is a small staging environment with the largest db being noly 5GB).
Ps: Vm is windows server 2008 r2 and sql is 2008 r2.
SQL Server 2008 SP1 to SQL Server 2012
We are in the process of prepping to upgrade our OS to Server 2012 from 2008 R2. When we complete that is it required I upgrade my SQL Server 2008 SP1 to 2012 as well or can I leave it in place with out any alterations?
I have read some opinions saying yes it is compatible and can be run under the 2012 OS umbrella, others saying I need to migrate that as well to 2012. I am trying to get a definitive answer so I can plan the entire process correctly and accordingly.
Thank you for any assistance anyone can provide. It is appreciated.
Database Migration 2008, 2012 to SQL 2014
I'm currently setting up to perform a side-by-side upgrade of various SQL 2008 R2, SQL 2012 databases to SQL 2014. My preferred method of upgrading 2008R2 and 2012 databases on various nodes/instances to my SQL 2014 cluster would be to detach on the source and attach on the target 2014. My second method would be to backup on the source and restore on the target 2014 instance.
My question is the following:
If I perform and detach at source DB and attach on destination 2014 cluster instance does SQL Server upgrade the database being moved automatically during the attach step?
Second, if I choose to perform a backup on a source DB and restore to my target 2014 cluster does SQL Server upgrade the database being moved automatically during the restore step?
Thank you for your time :)
Steps to migrate from Access to SQL - Swedish Access with Swedish characters in queries and table names

Will this be a problem or not?
According to your experiences, what is the main preparations I have do do before starting the migration?

Newbie as SSMA user - migrate Access tables and queries?
I just migrated my first MS Access 2007 database to SQL Server 2014 Express. I did it with SSMA 5.3.
I migrated and linked the tables. (Not the queries)
Now the Access database starts and data is shown on forms But is so very, very slow...
What can be done? Do I have to use SSMA for the queries too?
