  • RE: Active/Passive with named instance

    It depends on how your cluster is set up. Active/Passive means that ONLY ONE node can 'see' the virtual server(s) (shared disks) at one time. The cluster and virtual server(s)...

  • RE: Best Practices for Reboot Schedule

    Why reboot SQL Server 2000 on a schedule? Well, I found a reason this week. Luckily I didn't get burned. I have a Win2K Advanced Server 2000 active/passive cluster, it's...

  • RE: Anyone ever get this error?

    The SQL Server may have been created and set to listen to a port other than 1433. Especially if you have virtual servers. We have two virtual servers on one...

  • RE: QOD Button on Home Page

    <SLAP ON THE FOREHEAD>. Thanks, I never even saw the Test Center link. My only excuse is that I've used this site so much I know where the links are...

  • RE: Best Practices for Reboot Schedule

    I have SQL Server 2000 on a MS Windows 2000 Advanced Server active/passive cluster. I rarely reboot my servers. They normally only get rebooted when I add software that requires...

  • RE: Using "Like" or Wildcard

    Here's the problem:

    WHERE (LEDef_ActiveInd = 1) OR(LEDef_ActiveInd = 1) AND (LEDef_Cd LIKE '10%')

    You are asking:

  • RE: SQL Server Agent Fails to Startup

    I agree with psclvn, it looks like you have SQLSERVERAGENT service set to run under the SA account. I suggest checking that and MSSQLSERVER service account. If either or both...

  • RE: Data Conversions

    Does the time represent hours? ie: 05:00:00 = 5 hours

    Will there be minutes and seconds?

    05:00:00 plus 36:00:00 equals 41:00:00

  • RE: Decimal Format

    How did you 'define' your decimal field? The proper syntax is:

    DECIMAL(p,s)

    p=precision - the number of digits total

    s=scale - number of digits to the right of the decimal.

    So, to be able...

  • RE: Restoring a database

    The answer depends on what you are actually backing up...

    .mdf and .ldf files:

    Use the sp_attach_single_db_file command to attach the .mdf

    actual backup files created by BACKUP DATABASE command.

    Use RESTORE DATABASE command...

  • RE: Use another port instead of 1433

    Yes, COX is acting as a CALLER ID and is not allowing you access.

  • RE: Use another port instead of 1433

    By the way, it appears you may be mis-understanding how ports work. Let me provide an analogy (if you do understand ports, please forgive me).
