Greetings Guys,
I am setting up TFS server I have to restore database from old sql server 2008 express edition server to new SQL Server 2012 enterprise edition server running on a Windows 2012 Enterprise R2 cluster. I need to how to restore the express edition database into a SQL Server 2012 running on windows 2012 R2 enterprise cluster, what are the steps and precautions to be taken.
With regards,

Hi All,
I have a maintenance plan set to run FULL backup for the database every night 12:00 AM and differential backups hourly. I also configured Log shipping for few databases. My question is: should I remove the log shipping database from maintenance plan both full and differential?
My concern is that log shipping will do backup and maintenance plan will also backup the DBs. Will both interfere each other? The log shipping takes the backup during the same time period (Because I put the default settings while LS setup)
Should I exclude Log shipping DB’s from maintenance plan?
Your response is important to me.
Thanks,
DBA

Is there a way to make sure a user uses the listener or to prevent direct access to the alwayson partners?
At the very least, is there a way to identify how a connection was established (via the listener or directly)?
I'd like to make sure a specific user is uses applicationintent = readonly to enforce the routing defined on my availability group.
Is it possible to verify the applicationintent property of a connection via TSQL?
There is a diagram in the bottom of the following article, and there are 5 nodes hybrid environment which combined by Failover Cluster Instances and AlwaysOn Availability Groups
So my question is if all of the 5 nodes must be in the same windows cluster?
Can we create two windows cluster for them? such as two in one windows cluster, and three in another Windows cluster, is it possible?
If it is possible, may I know can we move the primary replica between two window clusters?

Please click the Mark as Answer button if a post solves your problem!
The availability databases report that they are in Not Synchronizing secondary replica is in Resolving status because the automatic fail over process was
unable to transition the secondary replica into the primary role.
How to fix this issue.
Does SQL Server 2014 support Group Managed Service Accounts for an AlwaysOn Availability Group?
For example customer (or) end user may report that the data that they are inserting in the primary replica is not getting replicated to the secondary replica.
We may find that there is latency in the logs getting transferred from primary to secondary.
what steps we need follow resolve this issue.
I am following this tutorial to setup SQL HA Always On in Azure and at the step to setup the WSFC Cluster it advises to uncheck the "Add all eligible storage to the cluster checkbox on the Confirmation page".
Tutorial: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn249504.aspx
I am using storage spaces with Azure data disks and wanted to follow that advice, but that check box does not appear.
There is simply nothing there on the Confirmation screen.
Has anyone else encountered this, I assume I must be missing something?
This is Windows Server 2012 R2 that I am using.
Thanks
EDIT: This was moved to the SQL forum, but this question has to do with Azure data disks and configuring Windows Server 2012 R2 for WSFC at the step of creating the cluster (the SQL part hasn't been installed yet), updated for clarity as well above. Hopefully others have run into this as well with storage spaces and Azure data disks.
I'm trying to track down why I see this error message in my error log 3 times a day.
I saw another post which seems to claim this is expected behavior but the post is difficult to understand:

Hi All,
Is it possible to add analysis service to existing SQL Server 2012 Active/Passive Windows server 2008R2 Cluster.
When I referred few blogs it is said that analysis cannot be added for SQL 2005, 2008, R2 if the DB Cluster is already build.

1, I install the node rs6 standalone, Why it appeared in the cluster node list by inquiry the dmv?
2, how to removed the rs6 from the cluster node list ?
by "set -clusterownernode -resource "XXXASQL" -owners NODE1,NODE2"?
But how to find the resource name? I tried to use window cluster name, SQL cluster name, and SQL role name , All of them say failed to get the cluster object.
3,how to set the owers to {}, I try below, but failed.
Backup Plan:
Every Sunday @ 10.30 PM---> FullBackup
Everyday @ 8.30 PM --> Differential Backup
Every 2 hrs Transnational log backup.
On Wednesday @ 2.30 PM my DB corrupted.
Now i want recovery my database.
But unfortunately i came to know that my Tuesday's diff backup also got corrupted.
In this case how can i recover DB till Wednesday @ 2.29 PM?
Hi
I have created a transactional replication.I am sure that I have configured it to replicate Non-Clustered indexes,
but It does not do so.
I tried several times to reinitialize the subscription,but still no luck.

Hi All,
SQL 2012: Standard Edition
I have configured DB Cluster on Windows Server 2008R2.
While selecting the features I have only preferred default services not any Analysis, Reporting orIntegrations.
After the DB Cluster is successfully setup I am warned by colleagues that it is not possible to createSSIS Packages (I do agree and client does not have requirement on this as well) but also informed that evenSQL Maintenance plans like Rebuild, Reorganize, update statistics or backups and etc.,are not possible to configure. Is that true?
I am worried and immediately checked by configuring backupmaintenance plan in both the nodes andcould abletocreate and run the plans successfully. Now it is clear that integration service is not required to configure maintenance plans butstill concerned about these maintenance plans whether they get any issues infuture executions. And also please clarify whether selecting or not selecting Analysis, Reporting or Integrationseffect Always On high availability if I want to configure.
Please suggest. Thank You

Hi
I came across so many job we sites, about SQL Server Virtualization (On Vmware and Hyper-V).requirement.
What make difference?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Per the documentation a differential backup cannot be used to establish replicas in the HA group.
What is unclear is whether once the HA replicas are established, can differentials be used?
Thanks,
Morgan
Hello
We recently had a SQL Server 2012 SE service that went down for almost a minute. This is a clustered environment. Whats interesting is the cluster service did not failover to the other node when the service went down, rather it started back the service on the same node. Also we are not quite sure why the service had to go down. I went to cluster.log and here is what it says. Can some please help me understand this log:

Initiator sent a task management command to reset the target. The target name is given in the dump data.
Warning:

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:

the message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table

Can someone please help me understand this:
Thanks a ton.
