Not a fun task, although SQL Server 2000 makes the job easier than a few other platforms. Still it's work and it starts to encroach on Jeffrey Yao's two DBA laws having to do with fun at work. Read about his laws and see if you agree and follow along on a real world adventure in migrating hundreds of database objects to a new database.

Welcome to part two of our series on finding and patching SQL Servers in your organization. In part one we discussed how to find all of the SQL Server instances on your network. In this part, we'll discuss patch deployment and the various options available to you.
In this article, we will examine a subject that is near and dear to broadly focused report authors - the use of cube structure to create desired cosmetic effects - in the Cube Browser, and more importantly, in a reporting environment. I constantly get e-mails, and see questions in forums and elsewhere, asking how to achieve effects that are not apparently "available" in "intuitive" cube structures, such as any of those that we see in the sample cubes. One of the apparent "shortfalls" that frustrate users is their inability to display the same dimension on both the "x-" and "y-" axes for presentation purposes.
We periodically negotiate a discount withe vendors for the SQLServerCentral.com readers. We've gotten another one from DBxtra for a Professional license if you're interested in this reporting tool.
I posted a blog entry and a forum entry in a couple places to ask the question, "What are the things you see developers doing with SQL Server data access that they shouldn't?" The list grew to about 25 or 26 things that were hot topics (so much that the Microsoft SQL Server product team was passing the thread around).
SQL Server 2000 has a rock solid backup process and one that many people have relied upon for years. However with the growth in database sizes and the constant load on many database servers, a third party backup utility is almost required in many environments. Kathi Kellenberger takes a look at Red-Gate Software's SQL Backup 3.0 and how it performs in her environment.
A few months ago we ran a series of columns dedicated to defining each of the major disciplines of data integration: extract, transformation and load (ETL); enterprise application interchange (EAI); and enterprise information integration (EII). We also asked for input as to which method or methods of integration are in use, or planned to be used, in your organizations.
After the announcement last week by Microsoft that there would be no Beta 3 for SQL Server 2005 and that the CTP process would take over, Steve Jones had the opportunity to interview Thomas Rizzo and Allan Ros from the SQL Server development team about the CTP process and testing the SQL Server builds.
This article describes the CLR integration into the SQL Server 2005 Database Engine in detail and provides some background for answering two integration-related questions.
