Conversion virtual cluster SQL 2000 to 2 knots to a data center different

Hello

I want to use VMware converter to migrate the virtual SQL 2000 cluster of 2 nodes existing to a different data center.

Existing cluster is on the same ESX Server. A 2-disc shared: quorum disks and data.

After that, I'll send to synchronize the data in logs.

can anyone provide details, best practices, concerns on how to do it?

If this is the only SQL server, I just set up a new SQL to the DR server and then manually import all the information from the database. P2V a server cluster with player quorum and etc is a delicate bif.

  • How to migrate to Cluster SQL in SQL virtual server or Virtual Cluster SQL

    Hi all

    Currently we will attempt to migrate a SQL (2 systems) cluster in virtual environment.  We followed the requirements with the Consolidation of Vmware tool and IO meter to ensure that our guests have enough resources to accomidate this.  All the coming of metrics return looks like it will work very well virtulized that the cluster was just for purposes of failover in any case and not for purproses performance.  That said, a few questions have concocted.

    (1.) that is - that the best way to virtulize or convert (P2V)

    -Should we just create a new Virtual Machine and install the same version of SQL and do a manual migration to the new SQL Server and leave as 1 SQL server with the HA

    - Or is there a way to P2V this kind of a Setup? If so what are the steps?

    2.) If a P2V is possible, I was under the impression you will need to use a mapping of RAW for hard drives otherwise that the cluster does not work?  Can someone talk about this? as I'm sure I've clustered windows Server2008 without mapping RAW before, but not with SQL

    I had to convert several clusters of SQL in VMs. Unfortunately, it is not possible to do a P2V on a cluster node. At least is not that I have ever found. It ends up being a new generation. This can be a major problem; However, it can be a blessing because it could allow a fresh server.

    Looking to take a physical cluster and a new VM cluster? In our environment, we used clustering to protect against the failure of the server. With HA, the problem goes away. So we actually converted all of our non-clustered VMS clusters. Your host dies, it has automatically restarted on another host. It does not protect against comments software problems, but this is not what we were clustering. Do you really need to come together in a virtual machine? Something to consider.

  • Cluster SQL 2008 R2 on a computer using RDM virtual

    Hello

    I want to create a cluster SQL using RDM.  I understand that I must use CF for this to work.  I LUN configured with FC already and I can add the ROW to the first VM.  But how that the RDM available to 2nd VM for use of shared disk?  They will be available on the second server SQL I have started creating my cluster?  Has anyone created a cluster SQL using RDM?

    Thank you

    D

    To use the same ROW (not simultaneously of course) from another virtual computer, you must add the hard mapping file that was created for the RDM when you added the LUNS to the first VM. However, there are a few additional settings that you must take care. Please take a look at KB VMware: Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS) support on ESXi/ESX for complete documentation.

  • Data loss Virtual Center Database migration sql 2000 2005

    Hi, (sorry for my bad English)

    I moved the db installation remote sql 2000 Server remote sql 2005. I basically followed these steps:

    To migrate a database from the server vCenter 2.5 of SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005:

    1. stop the vCenter Server service.

    2. stop the vCenter on SQL Server 2000 database.

    3 take a backup full database vCenter.

    4 copy the backup of the database to SQL Server 2005 host.

    5. create a new database on SQL Server 2005.

    6. restore the backup SQL 2000 vCenter database to the newly created database.

    7 correct permissions (same account, same password) see KB6565318

    8 native ODBC SQL connection change

    9. perform a change/repair Panel vCenter & gt; Add/Remove programs.

    10 in the Repair Wizard, I select custom and choose the newly created in SQL Server 2005 database.

    11 the authentication type used on SQL 2005 is the same as that used on SQL 2000.

    the license screen has an option box that says "I want to evaluate the product first," Setup does not correctly recognize the previous VirtualCenter database. » ???

    Now I can access the BDD via ODBC, and I am able to start the VC service. However, when I opened the client - I SEE NOTHING. Everything is gone. Totally empty. The data is still there well. I can go in sql 2005 and open the tables and see my hosts and virtual machines listed.

    Help, please.

    Thank you!

    I think that really there is a permission problem, but I'm not only deeply in SQL servers.

    Did you check for orphaned users?

    The permissions that are defined for the database of RESUMES?

  • SSO vCenter to cluster SQL database

    I was wondering if you can help me with something... You must move the database SSO (RSA) vcenter to another SQL cluster.  We confirmed mappings of user credentials and data base have been properly copied on SQL cluster.  I just have a problem with the article in the link where I am trying to execute the following command.  I have provided new details of SQL cluster.  Do you know what I'm doing wrong?  Am I not including the correct options and information in the command?

    http://www.gabesvirtualworld.com/how-to-move-VMware-single-sign-on-SSO-database/

    Name of server: IL1SQC02N2

    Server virtual name: IL1sqc02v1

    SQL instance: sqc02v1

    Order in the section

    ssocli configures-claire - a configure - db - IL1sqc02v1\sqc02v1 of the database-home



    Thank you!

    I think that you run SSO 5.1, right? If so, the vCenter Server database is only supported to run the SQL Cluster on version 5.5, so I think that execution of SSO 5.1 on Cluster SQL database is not supported.

    Because SSO 5.5 requires no SQL database more... I highly recommend you upgrade your server vCenter to 5.5 and then you can move the vCenter to Cluster SQL Server database.

    Running 32-bit Windows 7 - Excel 2010 - unable to connect to SQL 2000 of the GreatPlains OLAP Cubes - message Getting connection refused actively.

    It works with XP and even load Excel 2010.  I can't find what I need to change in win 7.  I guess that's the firewall or driver settings.  I completely disabled the firewall and still no luck.  I also took the file to connect to the XP machine and tried to use it as an existing connection and still have the error.  I ran Excel on the Win 7 XP SP2, XP SP3 and still no luck.  I have spent hours reading and researching the issue and can not find an answer.
    I tried to change the OLAP service account and open all ports on the server.  Still nothing.  The error message will connect to the client computer and the server does not record demand, so I think that I don't yet get on the server.  I do not understand as well as if the message is actively refusing connection.
    I can run the cubes very well on the server and on the XP SP3 with Excel 2010 machine.
    I'm in my troubleshooting garnis.  There has been some problems, that I have not been able to solve in Microsoft Servers and this is one.  I know that there is an answer.  I'm just not see it.

    How to connect sql database to esxi to save all data from the virtual machine

    Please provide steps

    In simple terms, you cannot connect ESXi to SQL. Connect a vCenter SQL (Windows only).

    If you want to save all the data that is contained in your virtual machines, I suggest a backup solution.

  • Moving cluster in the new data center in virtual Center.

    Hi all

    I want to store my virtual Center layout. To do this, I want to move an existing cluster that exists on another physical site in a newly created in the virtual data center. When I try to move the existing cluster object, I get an error saying "the operation is not supported on the object.

    This does mean that I have to create a cluster and move the hosts one at a time, or is there a way to move the real cluster?

    Thanks in advance.

    You have to re-create the cluster indeed. Logout of the host, and then add the host to the new cluster.

  • VCB + Windows 2000 and SQL 2000

    Hi guys,.

    I want to know if I take a backup with VCB one of my VM (Windows 2000 + SQL2000) in full mode vm the SQL database will be consistent or not... I know that since ESX 3.5 update 2 VSS support has been improved and should not cause not compatible DB backup... But as my version of OS and SQL are unaware of VSS I would like to know the result of a backup on the DB! Also what about a SQL 2000 on Windows 2003?

    Thanks for your replies

    Concerning

    Julien

    Windows 2000 is not aware of vss.

    SQL2000 is aware of vss.

    Move to Windows 2003 with sql 2000 and you'll be fine.

  • Adding security to SQL 2000 data sources

    Adding security to SQL 2000 data sources

    I made ColdFusion programming for more than 5 years and now I hired an assistant for myself. So far, I have no warranty on my data sources, but now I need to add user rights for these so if my assistant made a mistake, nothing would happen to the tables. Currently I have about 3 sources of data. I did some research on creating users under Microsoft SQL 2000 and I have created a user account under SQL, but given that my data sources are connected via the account, this user always have full powers on all the tables. Maybe it is more than a simple creation of a user account under SQL and allows read only access to the tables under the permissions tab. Or maybe I need to create new sources of data with different configurations, or perhaps use ColdFusion Sandbox!

    This is where I am confused right now and don't know what would be the way to protect my assistant from damaging my paintings!

    I'll explain my situation with an example here:

    Let's say Mike is a project manager / database administrator and it is the only one in the network, which must have full access to all sources of data/tables. Juta is the programmer who has access to all tables except the Update/Insert access read-only on the tables of 1 or 2.

    I would appreciate if someone can help me understand what I need to do to get there.

    Thank you

    I assume you are using RDS for Dreamweaver to connect with your ColdFusion server, etc, but ColdFusion doesn't RDS to connect to the database, just for you to be able to 'talk' to CF with Dreamweaver, right? We have RDS enabled in our development environment so that we can use CF Studio (Yes, I know, an antique), but the same thing applies to Homesite or DW, I guess. We have no active RDS on our production server see If I happen to use CF Studio to change templates on the production system, I can not run (or look at databases, etc) and would need to use Explorer to run the model and Enterprise Manager (or SQL Plus, etc) to 'look' to the database. However, you shouldn't really get used to change production CF models without testing in development anyway, so it should really not a problem, unless you do not have instances of database development, etc., which could be a problem with the security of the database. Take shortcuts by not having does not separate and production environments development can bite you.

  • CF8 and MS SQL 2000

    I have a few problems to connect to a MS SQL local database that I created. I have a new installation of the version of CF8 dev and uses the eval MS SQL 2000 version. I can connect to a remote SQL database very well, the problem comes when I try to connect to a local database. This is the error I get:

    Connection verification failed for data source: noblesqlLOCAL

    The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia] [SQLServer JDBC Driver] Error establishing socket to host and port: localhost:1433. Reason: Connection refused: connect


    I noticed some people have solved this problem in update to SP3 or SP4. I tried to make these updates, but once they are made my CPU will increase to 100%, and SQL Server will not start.

    So, any ideas? Should I try to get these service packs work? If so, any idea what I am doing wrong?
    Or is this a problem with my setup?

    I have my SQL Server settings that are configured to use Windows and SQL Server authentication.
    In CF when adding the database, I use:
    Database: noblesqlLocal
    Server: 127.0.0.1 (I also tried leaving empty and type localhost)

    Please help I tried to get this to work for what seems like forever. Thank you!

    Well, I never could understand what was wrong... I upgraded to MS SQL 2005 Express Edition and with a few calls to tech from my hosting support got it to work. So who knows what was wrong with 2000 but now I have at least something operational...

  • Report on the use of data store based on cluster (not data center)

    Hello

    I want to create separate HTML reports for each cluster I have in my virtual Center. I've created a script, but it doesn't seem to work. This script creates outputs separated from HTML based on clusters, but all the files have the same data, i.e. all data that are available in the Vcenter stores. How can I separate them with regard to the cluster in which they are assigned to the place?

    You are right that VShield Manager & POSSIBLE are the same. You will be able to deploy the Cluster edges & host view,

    Select a resource of data centers in the inventory tree, click the visualization of network tab and click the + to add edges. Ensure that we test the edge deployment against a successful VCD Host.If deployment works, it confirms the deployment of edge is certainly intact and communication POSSIBLE-host is very well.
