SQL Express OK?

About to begin the new vSphere deployment.  Four ESX host, projecting VMs of no more than 30-35.

Any reason, we should not use vCenter with the bundled SQL Express and save money on SQL hand full?

Thank you.

I see questions starting with SQL Express in your case. According to the official documentation, SQL Express is ok for environments with up to 5 guests and 50 VMs. see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1022101

Once you're in the future, you can always move to the full SQL Server.

  • SQL Express?

    I'm having a problem where there is no data other than the current day Net traffic. Support told me to the default database that is included with the software is not supported in production (ridiculous if you ask me).

    They asked me to upgrade to SQL Standard or Enterprise. For the sake of money I would use rather not one of these.

  • SQL Express LocalDB Path missing until reboot

    We have just upgraded one of our Installer components required for SQL Express LocalDB 2014 (SP1) since the 2012 version.

    The problem is that LocalDB installer does not update the path environment variable, so when the main installer try subsequently call slqlocaldb it fails because it cannot find the executable file.

    The path variable does not seem to be updated after a reboot, but the LocalDB installer does not prompt for this (and anyway it would be a pain).

    Everyone knows this? Is a workaround to enable the change of the path without a reboot?

  • VAMT 3.0 does not appear after installation of SQL Express 2012 and Powershell separately of ADK

    Hello

    I tried to install 3.0 the VAMT tool on a server for a week now and after that installation of the pre-reqs VAMT 3.0 option is gone to install.

    I installed powershell 3.0 and the guys installed DB 2012 SQL express and SQL 2008 management tool.

    It won't let me download pictures, so I guess you'll just I think the VAMT 3.0 is not displayed when I run adksetup.exe the VAMT tool tool 3.0 is not installed. I already rebooted the server.

    The only thing I can think is that I have to delete SQL and install it in pair. That is not sensible, but as Microsoft article says you can install VAMT without SQL express tool.

    My date limit is the end of this month, so any help would be greatly appreciated,

  • Dynamic action with multiple values of PL/SQL Expression as a condition

    Hel

    I am currently using Apex 4.0 for a schoolproject.

    I have two selectlists (P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE - which has al businessruletypes) and (P8_OPERATOR) that has a select statement based on the businessruletype.

    I want to hide the selectlist operator when P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 7,8,9 and 10 or P8_OPERATOR = 9

    When: change

    : P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 10 OR: P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 8 OR: P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 7 OR: P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 9

    What is the problem with my dynamic action? Because he does not hide the operatorfield when businessruletype 10 or 9 are selected in the selectlist. Sessions has also said operator = 9 and Businessruletype = 10

    The first thing is that a Condition that is applied to a control of dynamic action if the dynamic action is made the see page. She has therefore no impact on the question of whether the actions of true or false are performed. Control conditions which are those defined in the when the properties of the dynamic action. As they are evaluated in the browser, they must be specified as JavaScript.

    Secondly, this expression is not valid because it is a space between the colon and the identifiers. Link the names of rating, the colon and the variable element must be contiguous:

    :P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 10 OR :P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 8  OR :P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 7 OR :P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE = 9
    

    However the latter is only of academic interest, in this case you need to remove the condition of dynamic action.

    In the dynamic of change when action section, P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE, P8_OPERATOR, Condition of JavaScript Expressionand value to the value of the item (s)

       ($v('P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE') == '7')

    || ($v('P8_BUSINESSRULETYPE') == '10')
    || ($v('P8_OPERATOR') == '9')
    

    If you are using a browser that supported, this can be simplified to

  • Is it possible to use the default value as sql expression in obiee 11g report?

    Hi all

    Is it possible to use the default value as sql expression in obiee 11g report?. Actually what I'm trying to make is that we send an ibot users. They want the same default values that are assigned in the command prompt in the report. So when we send the ibot it shows the report for default values assigned in the report criteria which is obsolute. As a solution, I kept the report in a dashboard page and send the dashboard like ibot page. But the problem here is that I can send only pdf format. Is it possible to do so at the level of the report (without using session variables). I want something like that

I'm sure they do, but I was wondering if special measures or the restitution order is important. Thank you

  • Limitations of SQL Express 2005 with vCenter linked mode servers


    Hello

    We have a problem at the moment whereby we have reached the limit of 4 GB of SQL Express 2005 and you want to move the database to a dedicated SQL Server. However, one of my colleagues advised he read somewhere that figures recommended for 5 guests and 50 guests for SQL Express are related vCenters signifcantly increased (he thinks a dozen times).

    Is anyone able to confirm/deny this and if confirming point me in the direction of the supporting documentation? I have searched, but am not able to find information reinforcing the above figures.

    Thank you

    Chris.

    Hello

    Recommend VMware SQL Express for small environment, the limit is 5 guests and 50 comments. If you have a linked vcenter environment, you will have a second database for this vcenter. So this vcenter will be able to have 5 guests and 50 comments too.

    But your first database will not increase the limit, you have always the same.

    You can get more information here: VMware KB: vCenter Server 5.0 installation best practices

    Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Express is intended for small deployments of up to 5 servers and/or 50 virtual machines.

    This is for vsphere 5 but the limitation is the same thing on v4.

    You can get this working... to change your user name 'administrator' and instead of letting the empty field, enter "VM ORCHESTRATOR" (I guess it's the name of your workstation) - when you use is not a field, this field must be the name of your workstation as well, whenever I install on vCO on a Windows Server , I never checked the use of NTLM authentication box... so if my first note does not help, also clear this check box.
